Hi jarbie, u missed my NYMO intraday PROXY (courtesy input fm Taggard, rocketman and evil trader)
It’s working pretty well
It’s a 2sma on the $NYAD 30 min [edit: it's 2 EMA on the $NYAD]
Note pink circles when it crosses the signal line
Right now is near the top but WILL NOT SIGNAL SELL UNTIL IT CROSSES DOWN

LOL yes, it sure works this time anyone buy exactly on Tuesday's low? I can see after a follow thru on Wednesday, only counter trend at the bottom wedge of IWM will nailed every pennies of it.

Steve, making money in the stockmarket is more or less a full time job. I don't know anybody who's making money and ain't constantly reading the classiscs, checking the news, taking trading classes, investing 20 or 30 hours a week... Between 1982 and 2000 the rules were different, but now it's like a job...

I second that.
Its a job, a tough one, but can be very rewarding.
what's the reason the green lines are based on 4-day period cycle?
No reason, it's a 4 day cycle which has been quite reliable lately. A few weeks ago it worked perfectly, then it lost traction, lately it's been working again.

I think we're making stevej feels bad. Cheer up buddy. Everyone loses in the stock market. I hope you'll get some time to study and recover at a later time.
Similar candle to the mid-April on your chart with a red hollow bar. Got a little follow through over the next couple of days before making a double bottom. Hard to ignore the vix.
As an aside, did anybody see that Southwest will not show a profit due to rising fuel prices?
Also, I read an article yesterday that there are something like 75 known global central bank interventions in the last 6 months.
FOMC on 2:15pm ET, so guess we'll hang around here until then. I really don't think Fed would have anything new to say except keep interest rate low until 2014 which I think is impossible.
