The market is just chopping around at the primary pivot, again
with FOMC today and the recent volatility in the markets makes
sense for some chop today, don't over trade.
Steve is not feeling well and I have some blood work to do
fairly soon and will have to take off in a littl bit for that

Brilliant well done. At very important inflection points both
you and Steve happen to either be away from the computer,
have an internet problem or are sick.. Truth is you haven't a clue
where things are going and you second guess after the move has
already occurred.
only newbies to this site would say such a thing about Matt and
Steve. I've been on this website for nearly 5 years +/-, and this
is easily the first time anyone has said such a nasty thing. You
are clearly wrong. It would be my guess you are on the wrong side
of the market. I strongly suggest you review what you did wrong vs.
what was said in last nite's update from BPT. Personally, I only
pay for investment advice when i get something in return. BPT in
concert with this blog, has provided enough ideas in 2014 alone to
pay for a lifetime subscription to BPT. My trading style may be
different than many of the folks here (and is only part-time), but,
it is PROFITABLE. good trading Haz.

I don't ever recall Steve or Matt saying that they knew what the
market was going to do next. If anything they have both stated that
no one knows what is going to happen next. They have been
more than diligent in their work and dedication to the
members of this website.

They are not perfect and they work their asses off on here.
If you need someone to hold your hand all day you maybe need
to look elsewhere. They are trying to teach you to act on your own
as much as anything. You will be much more successful once you have
accomplished that.

I agree dakotadj.
If there was a method to exactly predict the market, everybody
would be a millionaire. Steve and matt do a hell of a job analyzing
the market and warning us of any flashing signs. They have been
great at keeping us in the recent trends and warning us of recent
corrections.
They cannot handhold us through every minute of market trading,
instead they make us self sufficient to trade and make intelligent
decisions.
yes we do the best that we can, Steve was sick today, I had some
blood work done, and lately the reason why you don't see me post as
much is because I'm spending like 4 - 6 hrs a day responding to
customer emails, I just can't keep up, taking all my time vs
spending time doing trades and analysis and systems - I"m like a
CEO who does all the menial jobs vs what spending my energy on what
I'm good at. Steve does not work on these emails, I have him
focus on the blog and market analysis and is why you see him post
more than I do. Lately been getting 50 -100 emails a day and
quite a few of these require 10 - 20 min replies. anyway that
said, I recently found a guy that I'm hiring in January who has
been following the website for years, he knows the site in and out,
knows systems and analysis, he's going to be taking over the
customer emails which will free me to focus more on the the
markets, blog, systems etc vs spending hrs on customer
support/billing etc, which is where my energy and time is best
spent.
Wanna delegate, Matt? I'd be happy to filter your emails, and
reply to newby questions, call members, etc... Really, I've got all
afternoon. And, I don't live in a third world country (ouch!) with
poor internet service like you guys ;-).
Seriously, train me up! I managed oil and gas properties for 7
years. I think I can handle it.

Breaking rising trendline.
Note: I'm not feeling well today so will be taking things easy today.

Why have you stayed so long then? Oh, and you misspelled your name, though it sounds about right.
