Yes! Finally. jp:1343, jp:1345 I live in Japan and I am earthquake paranoid. I think the geographic diversification of the ETF is comforting. Cheers, john

Greetings from Osaka, This company's j-reit index shows a discount to NAV of around -8 (edit: as of early july). There is some other nice research here as well. http://www.stbri.co.jp/english/market/jreit/nav.html Man, the share prices are monstrous. Some are like 10k per share. I...

According to Big Chart there is a 98.66% Short interest in IWM. I am a freshman. Would be interested in in experienced traders take on nearly every share being borrowed for short sales... Cheer from Osaka, john

FTEK looked primising. It appears to be a nice cup with handle. Showed unusual volume, but there must have been some distribution. another day perhaps... cheers, john P.s. feeling the pain of the time difference. Living in Japan is rough! Europe is the best for trading imho. adios

Right on.. spoken with clint eastwood voice, " I tried to climb el cap twice and it tried to kill me twice..." You cat's climb? In Spytrading/hershey news.... methinks daytrading these methods in a correction or a possible correction is the way to go. Has anyone made a 10% trade since...

NEU was a pretty classic CANSLIM pick as well. It emerged from a cup w/handle. It is nice to see how the Hershey method and CANSLIM can complement each other. Jack said somewhere that the Hershey method usually catches CANSLIM stocks at the bottom of the cups and at the pivot point. As...

Greetings folks, Yesterday was exciting. I wonder if those large block trades should be treated suspiciouly or almost as a coat-tail reinforcement for these methods. Do most people consider LEVEL II data for the volume breakout methods? I guess that i still only respectfully...

Greetings Everyone, Thanks again for all the great material. I have several question for anyone willing to engage me. 1.)How many money streams is everyone using? (i.e. the rough division of your trading capitol) I have been using 3 stream virtual trading. This choice would seem...

by the way... Marketwatch.com has free email alerts based on volume through their virtual trading. I think you could set it up to send something to your phone. It is probably delayed 15 min. but maybe useful to some. Cheers from north England, john

I am a neophyte trader that has been really impressed with all of this material. 1000 thanks to Spytrader and others who have really taken the time to genuinly help others. Reminds why the web is so cool. As for Hershey methods... I am quite impressed so far. I am up simulated...

Samson, What is NLP? thanks, john

Great discussion, folks. I really appreciate the well thought out responses. The system I am shooting for would trade a minimum number of times a year. My ballpark now would be less then 10 trades. Along those lines, I am really fishing for the few bigger winners, as I believe fconyer...

Greetings everyone, Long time lurker with his first post... I am front testing (i.e. paper/simulated trading) a very simple system that is based primarily on volatility for setups, position sizing, and so forth. Right now I am working with mostly the ER2 and the EUR/JPN. I am a big fan...
