Dave, my sister had her operation yesterday and the good Lord worked through the hands of the surgeons and she took it like a trooper. Amazing the power of Prayer. She is currently in a lot of pain but things are going to get better. She had a blood clot in her lung the size of a golf ball. She had a 50/50 chance and is going to pull through…

Great to hear that she is on her way to recovery. I hope that it is a speedy and full recovery.

Volume

Runner, I'm just curious as to why the charts you post never include the volume bars. Don't you consider volume as an important factor?

[Runner]

Rob, in all honesty I don’t look at the volume very much when looking for set-ups. I mainly focus on the price chart only. The only indicator used is a sub-sector line. I’m currently exploring Rerko charts and one of the signals requires volume as an indicator.

This is a great slide show about our troops in Iraq...

They did a super job of putting this together.....

Rob,
Runner is a great trader, and I respect his posts. Still, every single source I read/study insists that volume is a critical factor to consider when taking a trade. You probably already know this, but I thought I'd throw it out there for others to consider, too.

I still love your artwork!

I think volume bars confuse more traders then what their worth..IMO Explain how a stock will move down only 1% with a huge red volume spike and then climb 10% with little volume? How is it that a stock can drop 5% with little volume? I think it is manipulation myself. I thought for every seller there has to be a buyer? Bottom line you really don’t know who is buying or selling based of a volume bar. You don’t know what the market maker or specialist is doing.. This is why I pay zero attention to volume but price bars that set up to my likings I feel has more weight… I use to pay attention to the volume until I realized it was worthless.

I know all the books and experts harp volume. Maybe I’m way off base here, but I’ll tell you this much it works for me. Just like indicators in general. People thinking they are the holy grail….Wrong indicators cloud one’s judgment.. I believe all we need to know about the stock is easily seen through price bars and patterens.
