    Matt, I know AMD is one of your favs. You haven't mentioned it since later December and now seems to be  in a little consolidation. Earnings are on 1/26. Can you add this to your KISS charts if you post a few in the next couple days? I traded SMH like you and made $ then got into AMD on the pullback.  Thanks

    Thank you!  Just curious, do you normally use a hard stop or a mental stop on these DVTs? I've seen little fishtails go below and right back up in the past.

    As I staid before, kind of like we used to do with the custom daily pivots we used to show on SPX daily, we treated those with +/- 7 points. I give some wiggle room to them either rounding up or down depending on what other indicators and price action is saying.  Also as I stated there's a bug that shows up once in a while on the 2hr time frames where there should not be a DVT price right after one was broken. This is not generally a problem with the daily DVT's. Also in the past on the daily again I use some discretion, if price comes to a DVT and there's a big support there and 50 day MA, and I see a cycle buy on a 120 and 195 min chart, I'll probably give it more room because of that. Same for you, you can just use the prices hard set, or use them in conjuction with your charts and triggers as an additional tool, there's not one right answer. Otherwise on the daily again I generally round them, 3612 on the SPX to me that's the same as 3610 or 3615 or even 3600 quite honestly.

    Thanks, not an exact science

    Thanks, not an exact science and that makes sense. Appreciate the KISS chart on AMD... 87 is just below the 50 dma and also top of wave 1 if you count waves a certain way. 

    yeah I didn't like the

    yeah I didn't like the pattern AMD formed into late last week had sort of a tiny H&S look to it, I've been flat that stock.
