    Decreasing interest rates, increasing unemployment and high bullish sentinment?

    True Truths about Fibonacci

    i am not here to bash fibonacci retracements. i even occasionally use them. however... just about any pullback is going to be a fib retracement of some kind. then in hindsight, people will say, "it was a .382 retracement!" if it retraced further, then they'll say, "it was a .5 retracement!"

    What's the best way to clone a hard drive?

    yes, the cloned drive was a boot drive. the key is to use the -FDSP switch. if you want to use a cloned drive as a boot drive and you clone a boot drive without the -FDSP switch, windows will not boot on the cloned drive. this is exactly what i did: took the new hd out of the new computer and...

    to those that bought the spike today

    Jack/bubba7, will you tell us how you play greenspan spikes/spikes in general? my first thought is to zoom in to a shorter time frame when i see one happening, like on thursday. or if i know a FOMC announcement is coming, maybe adjust my charts to small scales before the announcement...

    to those that bought the spike today

    i'm gonna stop replying to this thread because i don't want to beat a dead horse. maybe "overdone" was a poor word choice. obviously there were reasons to buy or price wouldn't have shot up. some people saw something and i would tend to think those people were smart rather than stupid. i'm...
