Most of my short term indicators are still bright yellow. I don't like the looks of this market. Oil prices soaring. Gold starting to wake up. Long bond rates creeping up. Advance/Decline awful. Too many 'negatives' and the market(Nasdaq has been leading the overall market for some time now) keeps making new highs. I'll err on the cautious side. Not that individual issues should be ignored. Just don't like the looks of this.....(i hate to say bubble but that's where the thoughts drift)..... I always look back at my trades. Even though I may post what appears to be sour grapes, I think it's very important to learn from your decisions. I don't really second guess that much but I do think it's very important to understand why I've made a move and what the market was looking at afterwards. Thanks for your words of encouragement!

I-exchange is asking for posters. They will pay you $25 for 5 picks regardless of how right or wrong you are. This offer closes on Nov 28. If you want more info I can forward the email I received to you. Fun stock picking aside, I have a hard time rejecting $25 when it is offered to me for 10 minutes of my work. I think the problem they are having is no one is willing to pay to get garbage and that's why they are rewarding good stock pickers and tease them to stay and sustain their contribution so that their business will florish one day. I personally think they will go bust in 6 months after their VC money runs dry. Why pay for it when one can get for free here in SI?
