Iso,

Gold looks like it's dead money for a while, despite multiple medals given out for the same Olympic event. -g-

I'm talking mostly about time, but I'll watch price and resistance/support too. And HGMCY and a few others are right on the brink. Gotta reverse tomorrow. A doji star in GOLD is about the only good thing I saw today.

Nice recovery in the broader market. OEX narrowly avoided a big breakdown. And that INDU just refuses to give. A higher low there. Glad MRK is my biggest position, but not big enough. -g/ng-

Best,

Paul

isopatch, This not aimed at you, but I liked it so much, thought I would post it for the thread. WOW (Words of Wisdom) From A Dead Gold Bug:

Rules For Being Human
(By Sir John Templeton)

You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it will be yours for as long as you live. How you take care of it or fail to take care of it can make an enormous difference in the quality of your life.

You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time school called Life. Each day, you will be presented with opportunities to learn what you need to know. The lessons presented are often completely different from those you think you need.

There are no mistakes – only lessons. Growth is a process of trial and error and experimentation. You can learn as much from failure as you can from success.

A lesson is repeated until it is learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it (as evidenced by a change in your attitude and behavior), then you can go on to the next lesson.

Learning lessons does not end. There is no stage of life that does not contain some lessons. As long as you live, there will be something more to learn.

“There” is no better than “here”. When your “there” has become a “here” you will obtain another “there” that will again look better than your “here”. Don’t be fooled by believing that the unattainable is better than what you have.

Others are only mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects something you love or hate about yourself. When tempted to criticize others, ask yourself why you feel so strongly.

What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. Remember through desire, goal-setting and unflagging effort you can have anything you want. Persistence is the key to success. The answers lie within you. The solutions to all of life’s problems lie within your grasp. All you need to do is ask, look, listen and trust.

You will forget all this. Unless you consistently stay focused on the goals you have set for yourself, everything you’ve just read won’t mean a thing.

Edit, this one phrase I disagree with: "The answers lie within you." I would prefer to say the potential for answers is within you, while the answers often come from interaction with others.

All the Best,

Roebear
