  1. One Day at a Time

    In my last post in my account talk thread, I said that the options smart money was pretty bearish and NAAIM got more bullish. That told me we were likely to see short-term weakness, but more than likely it would not last given NAAIM's bullish disposition (along with the technical indicators in general). We got the weakness Friday, but with the exception of small caps, the bears didn't get as much traction as they might have liked.

The action and what it did to the chart is not very bullish for the short-term, but that was to be expected after we saw the big rally creating many open gaps and double tops on the charts.

  5. Another day down.


    Work day is finished, and it is time for a quiet evening alongside the blue Mediterranean.

    The waves are gently rolling along the shore, and I sit on the balcony of my sea side hotel, tasting a glass of dry red wine.

    These are the days to remember. I'm working in Israel, and have an ocean view room. I've spent the first third of my trip reviewing engineering data and manufacturing procedures at a key jet engine parts maker.

    But it is the evenings that ...
