Bought BKI. It opened waaay outside the RTL, near the hi of the day, then filled the gap in the first 30 min bar. I bought when price BO'd again on inc black on a 30 min chart.

In at 13.55 .

Note that again, the last day's volume isn't showing, but it's higher.

Looks like it's dead for now, although it may have some juice in it if overall markey volume returns. Sold at 14.34

+5.8%
 
Also grabbed YTEC @ 14.41 late in the day.

Was looking at SMSI from the deleted list when it was up around 5%, but let it slip from my mind. Of course it closed up 13%. LOL....

Still in SOLF, + 37%

Ok, I'll confess. I did the dirty and averaged down on XING after that 13% gap down a few days ago and got out of it yesterday with a small loss, about 2%.

Of course, this am it gaps up 20%.

It never fails... :D :D
 
DRYS was a clear buy today as I did have it on my watchlist. Nicve Brunio R setup in my opinion. I didnt get in cause Im still experiencing caution to pull the trigger. Ive been going over 30 min charts and feel that with Bruno R setups and even just beginner method setups I feel safer waiting for a point 3 to be formed on the 30 min chart along with continued volume levels for a better entry point. If you look at the first two bars of DRYS it clearly had the initial run up described by Jack in the Bruno R document. So I'm waiting for the retrace and then a point three to come in(with volume) and I might grab 100 shares. My question is, can someone show their Guassian analysis for DRYS and with respect to my description of my possible entry point, is this a good/safe assessment?

I had pretty much the same daily analysis that you did.

Can you see where I bought?

Haroki, 2 questions. Did you buy based on the thought that the current bar might turn to increasing black on the 5 min chart? I use the 30 min for buys as I have heard the 5 min chart is erratic. Whats your feelings on this? Also, how do you get that tool where it predicts volume over the next interval?

Like I said, I took note of it last night, and was watching it real close this am. The 5 min was already waaay up, volume wise, and the 30 min was turning at the time. This was one of those that I wouldn't hesitate to bail out of if need be.

The tool is a part of Quotetracker. It's like 7$ a year and can use your broker's data feed. You can try a free version that has some ads running on it.

Thanks, I just feel like there's always gonna be a chart that shows an entry signal. You can get a signal according to MACD and Stochastics on the 30 min the 15 the 5 etc... How do you know which is best and/or most reliable for the system.
