The Super Terrific Happy Hour

It sounds like you're going to have a super terrific bachelor party! Remember, don't try to trade when you're hung-over! Bad juju!

I'd never trade. I already have a two hour handicap because of the timezones. Being in Denver is a further handicap (second booziest city in the nation behind Portland). And having grown up at high altitude, my tolerance is through the roof...to getting drunk that is, the hangovers are just as bad as ever.

On the clear-minded days, I actually tend to get lost in the details, and don't see market as well. And I over think and over analyze the trades. I'm more prone to regretting missed trades and taking early exits.

Dude, you're at a bachelor party. Get off this website, go have fun! You don't seem to realize how lucky you are to catch a break, and not need to be studying. Jeez, lighten up on yourself.

Go get high on hypoxia! Whoooo!

I'm not at a party--well, I am a party and I'm about to head to a bar for dinner, but not a bachelor party.

We climb 14ers (14k ft+ mountains--I'm told this isn't commonly used outside of CO) and always take a six pack up with us for Lunch. It's always been natural for us natives, but transplants and visitors always think it's strange. Honestly, I think it's strange NOT to reward yourself with a leisurely lunch with a few cold ones with some of the best views in the world....but I digress.

Looks like we have a STHH lurker: http://www.marketwatch.com/story/he...attern-means-to-a-candlestick-guru-2017-08-16

I overlooked the significance of the 13.25 pause I mentioned earlier. So, I'll reiterate my prediction that we don't see any price action between 13.25 and 13.33 in the near term. If we see a hammer tomorrow opening and closing at 13.40, sell your children and buy their favorite smartphone app with the proceeds. You'll be able to buy back better children AND pay for their college.

LOL, shitty bachelor party, just made me feel old, pop and chips, no hookers and blow, left early. It was about as exciting as a watching paint dry.
 
Here is my view of NQ right now. We are in the middle of the monthly opening range (dashed blue lines) and above a rolling pivot I use, so that gives me a bullish bias.

Ratio of buys to sells using some proprietary stuff I wrote shows tech and semis strong and getting stronger. My biggest regret this year is not staying short energy. I've shorted it a lot and made most of my returns there but I still have a mental issue with ringing the same cash register over and over. My brain thinks I need to hit something new...

So I'm long some semi (TER) and now the QQQ, and still short GOLD although its close to hitting my trailing stop (at a nice profit), and also short a retail stock in case the market goes down. Thought you guys might look to see a different approach, I know I enjoy seeing how others view markets, and I've learned a lot from this thread.
 


Well when you put it that way atleast the market is easy its just numbers, lol.

I would slit my wrists if that was the numbers i looked at every morning.
