Hi LT,
I posted a review on IWM on the weekend for Clark and said that though it was in a steep uptrend the steepness was slowing (a fan of uptrend lines and that a possible top was in). http://screencast.com/t/cgOgkkn4mbrN
Also on the weekend thread Cobra also posted something about the IWM possible top based on a weekly candle (as I recall).

Geez I don't know if the charts/chatter on the weekend post could have been any clearer: danger for going long! Wish I had read through that. Now I'm sitting on a paper loss but I think we are very oversold now and will at least get a re-test of something higher (one of those p-bars Miyagi posted would be nice) and then I'll exit for a smaller loss and learn my lesson for the future.

AAPL is in 3rd time is the charm for bears. 470 is minimum target if break downs, well, WDIK?
Yes
But what I just said/showed about aapl volume not “telling” of a bottom
could just as easily be interpreted the opposite way: eg: selling volume is drying up, maybe (???)

Sorry for your loss.
I'm not really focused this week and so I've been sleeping in.
Not to worry - I'm sure you'll make it up on the next one.
I'll take a look at the ST chart for the short term. What was the IWM when you bought your call?
Educational only and not trading advice (EO&NTA) Good trading to all
good bull bar, let's see any follow through here. 100% MM target still is possible.

I got in Monday at the close which I think was 83.78.
Funny looking at the chart now I actually don't like the Monday candlestick after the hollow red of Friday. I was following more of a timing model than a chart pattern which I won't be doing again as I like patterns much better.
