Hot Pick Of The Day

NBB, when you use the PrtSc (Print Screen) method to capture the image, what program are you pasting it to?

I post all my images on imageshack. I got to MS Paint, cut out the chart, open a new file in Paint, and paste it the chart to the new file. Then I name the file "chart#1.gif" on my desktop, and go to imageshack and let them host it.

I post my handysnap charts by capturing them with handysnap, saving it
to "chart #1.gif" and letting imageshack host it. I.E., the diffo is MS Paint.

??????????

This one I think is ready for a move higher: NEM.

Chart is showing a possible bottom being put in. Any RSI 30 with a STO 20 bullish cross is a possible major low. Yup, this is a
more aggressive entry than waiting for another week, but I think
this was the very bottom Monday at $42. Stop loss: $43.68. Target #1: $47.61. Target #2: $52.67.

Entry at $43.68.

DUH! Exit at $43.40

Instead of using PrtSc, try right-clicking the image on Stockcharts.com ---> select "Save Picture As ... " from the pop-up menu ---> pick your desired location, file type, and give it a name. If the image's Y-dimension is greater than the height of the display area in your current window, this method will leave the image unaffected.

I notice that your "Handysnap" image has cropped off the ULT portion of the chart anyway, so you're not exactly comparing apples to apples.

Note: if you're using the annotated chart feature of Stockcharts.com, you will not be able to right-click and save, because you're in a java applet window. If you want to save an image whose Y-dimension is greater than the Y-dimension of your current window, you will need to: (1) make sure the image is displayed full-size (as per this message) (2) capture as much of the image as you can and paste it into MS Paint (3) Save that as a temporary file (4) scroll the browser so you can capture the remainder of the image and do it (5) From the menu select Image > Attributes and increase the Y (or height) dimension of the current image to a size sufficient to accommodate the rest of the image (6) From the menu select Edit > Paste From to import the temporary file, move it into position so that the two images are aligned. (This is called "stitching")

It sounds more complicated than it is. With a little practice you can do it as easily as making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Experiment with it. Have fun.

Thanks Rob. You're a computer genius. Yes, I like to annotate on Stockcharts so the right-click doesn't work there. I'll do some experimentation.

NB, your thoughts on these, MRO as a possible short and TRAD as a long?

NB, your thoughts on these, MRO as a possible short and TRAD as a long?

Runner,
I always love your work. MRO looks like a short in that it rejected its own 200 day. It has support down around $70.
You Elliot Wavers might like the weekly since it looks like right now MRO is in a two up, and preparing for the third down. That could be quite powerful. Point n Figure is bullish on it to $94. MRO has risen on speculation about OPEC cutting production to maintain the $60 price. However, in the past, OPEC has never abided by its own rules.

I'd be bullish on MRO is she can bust through currect resistance at $77.

Runner,
Looking long at $15.00.

Newborn,
Could you check out a chart of NOOF for me ? Is that a handle I see or is it a breakdown forming? Thanks

Or you can take the 30 day trial to Snagit. One time fee of $39.95 and it does it all in one capture or a number of different types of captures that are ready for ImageShack with all your notes etc. ready to go in one click and save operation.

How about if that EW analysis, on the weekly, interpreted it as the spike up after the "c wave down completion". That would make this one of Spike's "c wave" plays. I'm thinking of it more towards the "c wave completion spike up" and todays action, up .90, kind of is leaning in that direction.

Hi guys.

MRO is an interesting one. I just did the weekly count, Ski, and here's what I come up with:
It should be a good short down from the shoulder/green b/purple b, down to the fuzzy C support, or perhaps wait for the fuzzy C support buy play for 5 new impulses up. The former will likely take the least amount of time, with the chance of C failure and relatively quick drop down to purple 2, $56.00, which would equate to about 35% profit trade, risking maybe 3% on the entry. R/R of 11.6. I'd be looking to short in the $84.00 area down to $56.00 2 support, or even the SHS target of $39.00. That would be 53% profit and r/r of 17.9! Optimistic? Sure.....but that's what green hope is all about!! hehe

Spike, I was looking at that possible S/H/S as well. Tonight I see several energy stocks setting up as possible shorts. In fact I think I got around 12...

[New-born baby]

Ski, Runner, Spike

Men,
I love the stock discussion.
Spike, thanks for the set ups!

Runner, Thanks for calling MRO to our attention. And please post the other 11 or 12 short plays. I am going to play 'em.

Ski--thanks for posting the contrary view.

[Runner]

NB, we discussed the possible S/H/S in energy a while back. Notice the target was met. Here is what I'm finding interesting. Notice the last gap down. I'm bear here and my thinking another leg down might be in the cards.
