I think more of you should post charts with the key Kool numbers..it would help others.....any takers?

just for fun I'm watching if a failure of Volume in O/N can attract it back to 1121.50.....not trading it though

Hi Bruce,

I just came back from horseback riding, left a long order with a target of 1124.75, here is a 13 min chart with the projection, thanks to our friend Koolblue. I am sorry I am late posting the chart :)

Hope to hear from KB soon!

Bless you K,

Your sweet disposition, gentlemanly conduct and gracious words are of great credit to this board.

Always taking the high road you are an inspiration to the professionalism of us all.

Kudos to you.

on more sarcastic post like this Blue and you'll need to be blocked.....we are trying to move on and this is asking for trouble......I'm not in approval of the language in Kools post either but we need to get beyond this...

I'll let you decide from here. You could have continued this in private message but you want to fight it out on the forum. That's unacceptable to me. You are the one being unprofessional now ! Let it go please!

Ditto to that. With so many offering posts with analysis and rationale and trades ... and CHARTS!!, it's refreshing to have and see that interaction including questions about how/what someone is doing or seeing in the market.

Posts of just price level that is "important" with lack of any decent rationale that accompanies it, and not described in a way that folks can truly understand, do not add to the forum/thread/topic. PERONAL attacks aren't helpful but actually detract and confuse the process of interaction-analysis on a topic.

PM is available for that arena, but hopefully done in the spirit of working together. If ANYONE finds themselves questioned over time with multiple postings by more than one mypivots community member, then that trader needs to find a way to provide the information. And there are many regular posters that do this. So if you are someone who finds yourself in this position, simply look at how several of these posters communicate what they are doing and how they communicate their analysis and how they answer questions.

Anything less is simply confusing distraction. I hope all in the mypivots community would see and agree with this approach. And let's all have fun with this serious business of trading.
