Is there a difference between a white/green hammer (close higher than open) and a red hammer like today (close lower than open)?

We may be making another hammer today. Is two hammers in a row super bullish?

Sold half the hedge @ $43.95 just now for approxmiately $2,931 gain. Will post new exact figures at the end of the trading day.

Next buy is 2,000 shares at $120.

I am shocked :p

I don't know about "myths," per se, but I break just about every "trading rule" out there.

did all of you price predictors buy at the close today? This is a huge bullish sign right? I bought 1,400 shares of SPY yesterday at $127. Had I been like the ET members who can predict price I would've waited and bought it at $124 today.

Mostly because I felt like it. I cannot predict where price is going to go so I never know when the best time is to close it. Back on 6/15 the hedge was up around $5,379. I should've closed it then. But I didn't know if it was going to keep going up or down or what. Plus, I moved and we had...
