Do you have any idea what the message before yours meant? Was that code; are we supposed to go blow up a building on the orders of an agent from Tripoli or something? Williams has a waiting list? Gee, am I missing the boat or what? I was never on a waiting list. Wanna buy my spot? Just kidding. I like reading it, but I don't think there is a waiting list. He probably just does not like Italians. Change your name to something Germanic. If you take about 37 characters, mix the vowels up a bit, you should come up with something that sounds German. I took 2 years of German in High School. Whenever the Germans needed a new word they just broke it down into parts then ran it all together. A computer might translate something like "Machininwerkmitbellsundlightsgespringinen" or something along those lines. < a young lady look into my eyes last night and tell me that I had the "blues eyes" but we were having a party at an Irish Pub> Ah, but I'll wager you "got the Height". Ever hear that one? The Irish women used to say that all the time. "O, that lad Slevin. He's a dull-witted piece o' turf." "Yes, but he's got the Height."

From #reply-12663183 Yes, it looked to be an outside day early on, and I've been watching RSI flag as well. If you chart the weekly version of the SPX you might have an even more striking picture. However, I think the market is coming down to move higher.....near term. So although I've never been a buy the dip type of trader there are stocks that have been finding their way into the accounts. Way early on some, I'm certain, but when the DOT looked like it was doomed to a miserable day it occurred to me to magnify the posture I have in an internet fund......aside from preparing for tomorrow I'm glued to the screen waiting to see what my cost was. As an aside, it may be prudent to continue this on the FUPS thread or some other one. It's kind of far off the mark for here. Tell you what, I'll copy this message over there so if you like we can try it that way.
