disclosure- holding long

i balked on break above 1795 but not 1800…. accum volume looks good across several sectors…..with seasonal bull tailwind.

appears there were several good reason to take some profit today

does this mean we continue closing on neckline until Fed speak next Weds?

Thanks for the article.  Can you tell me why does Russian culture prefer cash over credit cards or a paypal account?  Is it distrust of the Russian banking system?  

May I also ask, are you a citizen of Russia?  Visiting Russia was on my travel list before I became disabled.  i really wanted to visit St. Petersburg.  I've always heard the city and museums are worth seeing...but I hear Moscow offers more restaurants and better nightlife.

It must be about midnight there….."spoki".

Apparently russians prefer to pay bills & make online purchases with cash…..and Qiwi machines are literally cash-sucking reverse ATM's.  

Goldman has a $70 target…..May be worth a look on a pullback.

we've got our barely higher low after retest but bulls not rushing in yet.

would be a nice setup to remind bears that bull dippers haven't left the building yet.

nice bounce on heavy pomo session…..and Russell finally found its feet & 10yr rate backed off from 2.9 threat.

'08 upper channel holding so far……took years to bust above this…..deeper decline seems likely if it fails.

Same old algo game playing out…..sweeping long stops sitting just beneath 1775 neckline then shifting her in reverse to commit a hit & run on a few short stops sitting just above 1775.

props to kimble for flagging this to my attention.
