I have 22 consecutive profitable trades of 15% or better. How is this possible? Every day there are hundreds of stocks setting new highs, no matter what happens in the overall market. Many of these stocks are still at very reasonable valuations. Afraid of buying stocks at their highs? Think of it this way: a new high is really a future floor for companies with solid financial underpinnings. Quantitative momentum modeling makes it easy to identify stocks that can continue this upward momentum trend. Why does this happen? It's really very simple..ask me about what investors and cows have in common. I am $$$ MR. MARKET $$$. I AM HUGE!!! Bring me your finest meats and cheeses. You can join in on the fun.

Resistance at 1958..Support at 1968...That's a long ride. We got through minor resistance at 2020-25 but it took 2 days...If we can blow through 2058 then we may see Schnorgie's 2100...Hope we do, but I'm not gonna count on it.
Watch SMTI...The volume dry up is a dream...how low can it go???...I went in a little early hoping to catch an EXPLOSION!!!
Guess I SLD CCBL too early...but the vol was low today so I don't feel too bad
NTE did well today on the comeback...I got it a little late 'cause it was on my "B" list.
One I have been watching for quite a while is FINL...Forget it now.

All that DGO has(I don't follow the AMEX) and the one's I'm tracking myself were up today on the ST OB/OS Oscillator. The DGO one's are the NAZ Composite and the NYSE. My own are the NAZ 100, DGO NAZ RS 100, SP 400, 500, 600.
I don't have enough history with my own Indicators to figure out where a high point on the OB side is...but there is still room to go up on the NAZ Composite...However, the upward trend is very choppy on the NAZ...You don't see that since March...Maybe it was the holidays??? I don't really know...but we are at a point where the NAZ could go either way...Doesn't help much except that all should be cautious right now IMO. We, including me, have been pretty excited lately...Don't let profits slip away...Best To All...IIC
