  We’ve got video!  I’m stoked that I’ll be able to bring you guys more ideas now that I can run through charts in this medium, it takes too long to post 15 charts to the blog.  The picture you will see behind me is one of my favorite paintings, by Picaso, it is my own [...]

  Interesting market eh?  As I remarked a few weeks ago, we are fully into a new cycle of trading where outside political and macro news will effect the market on both the intra day and shorter swing time frames than it had during the major trend leading up to this sell off.  You’ve got to [...]

  Fear is setting in regarding the banks, a lot of weird stuff is popping up in the charts.  Take a look at what happened on the open to the bank prefered ETF $PGF.  I don’t like the fact that the banks are all raising interest rates on credit lines to astronomical numbers.  They know something and are [...]
