YM fills the overnight gap.

Back in the day I bought my Dad a cell phone so he would not call me from his land line (trying to save money). When he was done talking to me he always turned the power off.

Took my quick profits, I agree with Cobra, hard to trade the short side......

Just turn on airplane mode.

Or turn the thing off.

What use is a mobile phone that is powered up but cannot communicate with the outside world (inside a Faraday cage/bag)?
As a pocket calculator, I suppose.

Sorry that you missed the point!

If you want your phone with you, but do not want to be tracked until/unless you want to use it (i.e., doing something that you do not want tracked).

Faraday Bags are also good for key fobs and credit cards ...
K447: "But, I cannot use my key fob or credit card when they are in the Faraday Bag" ... ah ...OK!

Perhaps you also do not understand why you would want to put your key fob or credit cards inside a Faraday Bag.

Note: airplane mode or "turning the thing off" does NOT always prevent what you think it prevents!

TICK has come back down to their MA lines, we'll see if it will turn....

[te_fern]

Pasta Boss has been talking about this TICK chart, can see that the shorter MA line has turned back down from above 0 and the VIX has been moving higher (light blue, inverse)....

[te_fern]

Supporting this sell=off....

Looks like its about closed the opening GAP and touched the lower trendline, can it turn back up from here??

Seen this play before, down all morning, bottom at London/Frankfurt close then climb back up all afternoon.

I have a background in electronics. I know what a faraday cage does, and what turning the thing off does.

Normal iPhone 'Airplane mode' does allow a subset of local wireless radio functionality.

iPhones have two levels of airplane mode. One leaves Bluetooth (Airpods, maybe Apple Watch) and local WiFi (AirDrop) alive, the next level turns the radios off pretty much completely. Both modes disable the cellular function - no voice, no SMS, no data service.

If I was concerned about my keyless entry car being stolen I would indeed use a faraday cage for the key fob.

Same for chiped cards in my wallet. I am in Canada, so my card chip signals are not useful without my PIN. Which I keep in a different cage.

HA! END of all further discussion. This is EXACTLY what Congress needs to drill into. That educated people are having so much trouble preventing being stalked.

XLF has just gone red. The upmove may be doomed.

Rut row.....

[Trades with cats]

Yea, this test of the low isn't going so well.

[brokebybernacke2]

financials need a bid to keep the bounce going.

[te_fern]

In the last hour Coolbiz adjusted his view:

SPX bullish chart above has some flaws in it from Wave Structure prospective upon re-checking. Please DISREGARD (SPX at 2658,85 now) Staying bearish as before until it closes above 2755....

[Trades with cats]

te-fern, my world is now in balance as Coolbizone and Pretzel Charts are back in agreement on the Elliot crystal ball forecast. Headed for a nasty nested 3 wave down (more or less matching up with B of A Merrill) or we need to get up into those 27 somethings to change the outlook.
