    spx been looking weak, but now it escalates, looking to see if it hits the 50 dma at 2152 and how it holds. September just that kind of month i guess. and oil isnt helping lol.

    big move coming soon in the TLT, the 8ema, 21ema, and 50dma all converging, will lead to price expansion in one direction or the other.

    i just gotta post this in here ... i know i had mentioned this to you on another thread (completely forgot where i posted it to though?) the other week ... but i do think it is definitely very much worthy to have posted in the weekly thread here as well for all to see lol ... but seriously some mad props goes out to @Ken34 -- for those who aren't even aware, this guy recently just celebrated a major milestone (his 1-year anniversary in the market...literally!) which i thought was pretty awesome

    you wouldn't know it by the way this guy just kills it in trading man ... don't believe me just look through this guys stock picking contest history for one lol .... he has progressed so flippin' much since i remember him joining up HSM a year ago ...

    pretty amazing stuff here if you ask me man ... and i just honestly couldn't think of any other way to make it known than to have a post in here on the weekly thread

    keep on kicking ass @Ken34 , i know i said this to you before, but there are lurkers out there who read this thread/forum on a daily basis and who are so inspired by your story here ... heck man even i am .... truth

    okay, that is all! back to the markets :D

    Saw this video yesterday from IBD's website (they are starting to do Facebook streams). It's a good watch.

    http://www.investors.com/videos/stocks-dip-as-oil-lags-salesforce-slides-on-results-veeva-soars/

    Guy on the FB page said he loved their chemistry lol. Oh yeah, the way they avoid eye contact with each other (not enough room for two hotties in one video). Always looking at note cards in their hand haha. Gil doesn't need that! The way they have to turn around to see the chart. It's definitely a new thing.

    thanks guys, like i said before, its all thanks to everyone's insight on here, it has tremendously helped in my learning process.

    i wish more people knew about this site, there is so much useful info on here and everyone is so helpful.

    but when i try to promote the site to friends or co workers, ive come to the conclusion alot of people dont like to be open about their money in any form or fashion. its like investing is a taboo thing or something to openly talk about.

    was watching my client, i saw the bid/ask for NUGT pop hard at 8:28am, i kind of figured it was going to be a miss as soon as i saw that lol.

    US created 151,000 jobs in August vs. 180,000 jobs expected
