LNG
GOOG
VOD  strong

/tf 899 - testing top of range  901ish res.

DWA, FSLR   - er LOSERS.


ebay, amzn - below 50 day.

/tf 910...   massive day
DOW 131

over 61.8% fib retrace from 2 days ago -- good place to die.

/tf - 30 tick p/b  -- within minutes....

DECK -- weak last few days into the ER....  have to assume it's going to be terrible.  But still holding 50day MA --

bot TZA because ... lost focus.  No signal.  no reason to short.  Lack of discipline is expensive.

All 'gut decisions' will fail.  That's not a plan.  The plan is the plan.  Everything else is wrong.

AD 1650
DOW 168
UD - nhighs all day long
/zb new lows
VIX -13.5%


basically everything I did today was wrong... somehow.  Impressive.  I could make so much money doing the opposite of what I do.

new highs...   outperforming... large cap industrial.

Tight stops will kill you just as much as wide.  Can't trade afraid.

DECK red...  bad ER coming?????    smells like it -- seen this before. (SIMO)

LOW TICK OF DAY  3:42.  ???

-- 3:45 - this was the time to fade --the Tick called it --
