Freeus, wrt corrections, you're graciousness is appreciated! Wrt: KCBOT protractor, yes, I'm sure it will help. For starters, you can see THROUGH it easier, as our Coffee Filter Wedgies were opaque...and acc'd to Clappy, some who brewed their coffee in one before smoothing out and foldin' and cuttin'...theirs were more opaque than others<ggg>. I loved your winebottle/rolling pin anecdote. Yes, the coffee filter spur of the moment creative solution is like that. I just couldn't wait for you to order the KCBOT one. Something in my heart heard your lament resonate down deep and I just had to pitch in quick... I looked out the window to my lab setup, and saw my unused Coffee Filters and, voila the Coffee Filter series was born. wrt: if QCOM had pierced the $56 point, it would have been most prudent course of action to sell quickly to live to play another day, as the odds shifted from risky but still doable above $56 to TERRIBLE if $56 was broken through. Remember, 2 out of 3 closes below $56 and you would have been so glad to have hit the sell button as you most likely--statistically, would have watched QCOM go down for the count! wrt: captioned: "Help let me out of here! [QCOM chart?]" Nope, I missed that one. It sounds hilarious. Yes, time is immensely important, especially in relationship to Price correlations. That is why the TIME/PRICE Coffee Filter Wedgie series works. And, of course I didn't invent the 2 axis...someone far smarter than me figured out the correlation between time and price. I believe I mentioned GANN. Another Time Price fan is Fibonacci <---I'll have to introduce you to him sometime, and his 3 basic elements which dovetail so very nicely with what you've learned about Trendlines and Support 1 & 2 and Resistance 1&2 regions/bands... ...but you'll see him on your KCBOT Triangle soon enough---... Please don't worry about the little instructions that come w/your KCBOT See Through Protractor. There will be time to talk about them later. Just get used to using the Trendlines, both bull and bear with it, on longer timeframe Visual Aids. Part of the reason I love the KCBOT tool so much is it works on CNBC when they have up a chart, and it works on your monitor when you get referred to a chart...b/c you can see through it. BTW, if you are going to "draw on your computer screen"...well, I keep a set of Overhead Projector Pens handy to do that...and a supply of facial tissue also close by for a quick wet down and wipe off Desktop PC monitor clean-up duty. There are others who have contributed significantly to Time/Price axis work, too many for me to name. wrt: how long did it take my BREX to double? About 90ish days I believe, from the 105 level where I got in, to the 224ish level when I banked it and ran just before the collapse. wrt to something tripling? That's what I like my options to do in short order...makes me get an itchy gold-trigger finger when I find 3:1 plays...bull or bear. wrt: QCOM had a very short base.. hmmmm, don't know that I go along with you there, but please remember: whenever you find those "short bases" remember to grab your Coffee Filter Wedgie, whip it parallel so that the TIME axis is either parallel to either top or bottom of your Visual Aid, and quickly mark your 22/45/67 and 87s degrees of arc. Draw them in and watch what happens...I think you'll be amazed! wrt sticking to your 12 stocks...Sounds like a good plan! Were you surprised at the number of stocks I own and how many I'm tracking? And did you see that Greg Mullineaux thought 10 was experiential max out zone?? wrt QCOM and degree of bull or bearish arc...Yes, of course we can compare notes. I'd love to. Just remember to specify whether you're looking at Daily or Weekly Visual Aids when you ask, ok? I sure don't want to be looking at the wrong thing and give you a bumm response. Porcher-ly, O/49r
