On a more positive note...I now am in control of my "nest egg".
Yesterday the IRA rollover was completed and I can trade via TOS with my retirement money.

First order of action was opening a starter position on DOG today which filled at $60.38. In typical MC fashion I'm running a tight stop. I am jumping the signal which may pay off or cost me a few bucks. I'll add if the signal pans out and if not I'll reset and wait for a new signal.

Another thought backing the possible break other than the signal is that QQQQ lost momentum today and DID fire a short signal. As you should know the Q's were leading the way, so I would anticipate a similar reaction on the pullbacks being led by tech.

Wish me luck. I retired the old thread and will use my IGLOO to keep yall abreast. Side biz has been going well with futures, yes I'm back live with them again and doing well.

Keepin it classy.

80 is a bit steep, though I'll take it if I get it. LOL
$64-$70is the target range I'm eyeing up. Would feel better if the signal was weekly not daily tho. Weekly is in alignment with oversold tho and could produce a nice move.
I had to let a hook take place, and like I said, I'm front running here. Signal is setting up and I'm jumping like a DOG does for treats. Pun intended.

Naz momentum shift was minor...but it did shift gears lower and I hunch it could unravel taking the other indices with it. MUAHAHAHA

Ima read on selling puts again and may implement some of that juice on an inverse if I feel I understand the strategy well enough.

Stopped early on with the DOG trade and I was away from the comp all day so I couldn't re-enter. Dow at 8400 is the weekly 121% fib level, structure resistance and they are selling these rises according to my charts. I knew I was jumping the signal...very VERY small loss. Just wish I could have re-entered...maybe Monday if it doesn't run from me.

Have a great weekend.

Default Finally got my ass in gear. I'm looking at this as a biz now.


(I wish I had a full before pic! This looks tame compared to how it was!)
From this clusterf*ck of an "office"...


To this.


And this.


More to come as soon as I wall mount my spare 42" lcd.

Also velcro to attach the router and modem to the desk and some velcro cable ties to tie up the small ratsnest of wires. I shed a 4 port kvm and about 30 cables. No more litter box or home gym...in this room anyhow. I LOVE how this is shaping up. This is my TradersBASE. LOL

Hope your profit margin goes inline with expectations

I updated ninja apparently i was 3 updates behind. (now they tell me)

if u got time today or tonight let me know i am trying to figure out a stop system now. Its really frustrating. I typically trade 6 contracts now so that's the basis. the second basis is going to be 4 points a day. IF possible of course. If this can be achieved i can retire in 10 years LOL j/k. i think 2 points a trade and try for two trades a day. I am still looking into delta ect. I think its great put of course everything has pitfalls. Well anyhoo I got skype loaded if u pop up anywhere.

Tim

As I continue to seek an IT/helpdesk job comparable to what I had last year I'm tossing around going to college again next semester.

My mind is really confused and any thoughts would be cool. As of right now I'm most heavily considering Business Law or Finance (DUH). Marketing or Management intrigue me as well considering I intend to become an EMPLOYEER at some point instead of the EMPLOYEE.

I have a hot lead for a 2 year contract job that could become a state position so wish me luck there.

Thoughts?

I thought you guys might get a kick out of how much of a role TA has in my life.

I'm a bear when it comes to fat...so resistance becomes support in my downtrend.
I'm expecting a further "breakout" to the downside and then consolidation at the 140-145 level which is my natural weight.
