Hello, just poking my head in to ask a Question :)
What is the cheapest service to use for day trading?
I have Schwab and Merrill but they are full service and charge $$$ so I cant use them.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Al
Rally after 11th of sep
I think is very much certain,I am staying long untiland including oct 2002
oct=moment of truth
was this a fake rally or the begining of a new era
hello
can't see it going up now....shorted vod today 94...nite
I think you hurt booty-full's feelings. Anyway I haven't seen booty-full around here in awhile. What's up with that? Even Fibo seems to have disappeared.
Where did all the muppets go?
the only ghetto in Scottsdale
me too! <G>
Hi fibo,
I just caught your post today. Sorry to hear that things did not work out to your liking here.
I live in Scottsdale also. Actually it is the only ghetto in Scottsdale <GG>. I like it here also but July and August can get pretty Hot. Did you set up another board or website yet? Here is a company that you might want to look into for a website http://www.blurhost.com/
Is your original website from the UK still around? I will probably try to get in touch with you if you do not mind dealing with some of the Poor folk in AZ.
Good Luck Cranium! Sincerely, Bob :^)
Good Luck to All! :^)
PLAN the TRADE and TRADE the PLAN!
Could someone e-mail me where the new board is? TIA
MechM
If you want to join fibo`s new board contact me on zigi38@etoast.com
We will miss you Fibo.
Anyone wishing to continue on this thread
please do so
As long as there are intelligent postings I don`t think the admin or I will have a problem with that
read terms of use please
It might be also an idea to start your own thread here
rather than continue on this one
good luck
cranium
bbgold...The admin is excellent here
Matt has good instincts and I am sure some of us wish the same deligence could have been applied to other websites
so well done matt(serious)
He would make a good detective
If I remeber right you said you were from Phoenix
I will be moving to Scottsdale,bought a house (well it is in escrow) should finalise mid/end of Aug.
My fiance` (soon to be wife)lives and works in Scottsdale (she owns a jewlery store).
I should be there latest end of Aug,have lots and lots and lots of re-decorating to do
I was there just over two months ago
I love Arizona,I love the heat,I love the relaxed approach to life and the lack of traffic
I think Scottsdale is next to be becoming a none smoking city
it was tempe was it not couple of months ago,wonder how it will affect the busineses(bars,restaurants)
perhaps get in touch with me on craniumsays@yahoo.co.uk
we might meet up
cranium
Leaving so soon?
Just when the posts started to get interesting also, Ugh. I especially like lan's posts. Matt and Bob Z keep a tight leash on new boards as there have been so many new boards that have misrepresented themselves. I have seen a few in my time here that were only 1 poster with many alias'. I have found iHub to be a very hospitable place most of the time. It just might take a while for everyone used to following your board to adjust to some of the restrictions. Matt and Bob Z try to keep iHub fairly Honest with only one alias per person so that the legitimacy of the website and the posts are not compromised. Sorry to here that you feel this type of a format is restrictive of your board design. Good Luck cranium (fibo)!
BTW, are you in AZ yet? Sincerely, Bob :^)
Good Luck to All! :^)
PLAN the TRADE and TRADE the PLAN!
Thank you matt IHUB admin
comments taken note of and appreciated
At least some people were introduced to your website ,when they did not know about it before
The address of this website was posted on a few Uk bbs
Sometimes to set a standard of discussions one has to to make an effort in that direction..if you know what I mean...until the thread gets started
best of luck and hope you will bag a few subscribers from this thread
I will most certainly be lurking for now and reading some of the comments
good luck
cranium
Awww, shucks, you don't have to run away. All I'm asking for is compliance with the TOU.
Heck, I didn't even put you in the Jailhouse and torture you over the several aliases. I went easy on you, dood. Probably because you guy(s) are at least talking about stocks.
BTW, you really shouldn't delete my posts. Not cool.
let us know the details soon fibo,not being patronising but a wise decision
A message to investors hub
I thank you for letting us use your thread and make it our home however short-term
It appears that we need to move to another home
I shall follow with interest your other threads and it is an excellent place
But we had had problems before not being able to fully monitor our discussions forums ,which in turn has and will threaten the
survival of our forums
I thank you again for your hospitality
cranium
FRIENDS WE ARE MOVING FROM HERE
I will email some of you about the new "home"
Every one please in turn email your contacts as some of you here I don`t recognise and have not seen before
I am certain our next stop would be a permenant one and we shall thrive and make moola
By the way we achieved success here
the busiest new bb on IHUB not bad heh for the first two days
kindest regards
fibo
cranium
zigi
I think we should move
I agree
I will email you folks about the new "home"
It gets pretty limited here as you said and would stop the development of the "thread"
On threads like this I would expect three hundred plus postings a day and therefore folks must go premium
that would make posters think twice
SO we are moving
cranium
I went along with that
good call
cranium
IAN I think you could be right on the money on this
excellent post
cranium
Bermuda's
So who got up to put their bermuda's on today?
Nice little short on the FTSE at 4260.

Ian
Outlook
Short term indicators
Bearish indicators
Yesterdays MASSIVE Dow rise was on low volumes and v. unlikely to be sustainable.
Wave C targets met and criteria for vertical launch met.
Targets for Thu/Fri consolidation met.
Short term overbought conditions.
Vix gapped down to 32 indicating complacency.
Dollar has not managed to reach consolidation target of 107.7 and looks toppy. Major resistance at 107.8
Nikkei fails to break 10,000
Goldman Sachs buys 10,000 Sox ADR contracts on Thu. (Normal open interest 1,400 contracts.)
Sox falls.
GS upgrades sox components on Fri, resulting in a damp squib rally. (Upgrade sounded more like a reason to sell.)
The fall on Thu was caused by a major Taiwanese manufacturer indicating there was no demand for chips.
Bullish indicators
None in the v short term.
Watch out for a parallel up trend to form. Upper line defined. Lower line needs to be guessed. This could be very bullish.
Likely bounce areas :
38.2% retrace / Fridays highs
Dow 8270 (8280-8300)
S&P 952
Nasdaq 1280
50% retrace / Fridays lows
Dow 8122
S&P 837
Nasdaq 1263 (Fri high)
Forthcoming events
US consumer confidence 10am (US time)
Klac results after the bell
French business confidence (before European open)
Around 31/7. Revision of US GDP for last 5 years. Unlikely to be good news.
US CEO's to sign off accounts - deadline 14/8.
Longer term
Pressure to expense stock options
Pressure to revise pension assumptions downwards

Ian
FIBO
strange things happening here today;I knew it!!!!!!!! trouble makers ))):
made their way here,they have nothing better to do;<jealousy kills<>You should consider moving to another thread or board or better still set up a website
FULL CONTROL,,,,,,,,you only get limited posts here after that <pay up or shut up>
<don`t fancy paying for access and if you look@@- after three most of the guys give up>
They are taking their rates up from the 1staug
I`ll send you an email & sure you can contact the rest and we will travel to wherever
THINK ABOUT THIS PLEASE
wouldn`t mind paying if there was a website that you or another one of us had control &kept out the parasites and armchair bandits
I think the financial <resistance to entry/barrier >is going to stop the development of this thread.
I WILL email you let us find another HABITAT so we can trade without the financial commitment and the barriers to entry
I THINK WE SHOULD KEEP THE NEW PLACE A SECRET
I think you're right. It will all be better tomorrow.
Mechanical-M
we are used to this on Uk bbs ,no problem,now what was I saying?
Ian thinks we are going to fall tomorrow
that`s going to take a lot of longs by surprise
perhaps..............................
trouble makers
can`t see any offensive writing here ;just one lc-all shall be revealed
I'm so confused.
[Suppressed Sound Link]
I am still confused
so it is a trap;what was all that about someone reported it I think
I don't mean to intrude here, but can somebody let me know what's up with all the multiple accounts on this board?
What's the hangup with creating aliases just to talk to yourself?
I don't get it.
There do seem to be a few "real" folks here, but I do notice many of you are posting to yourselves using different names. Cut it out, doods.
Fibo, do you think we will close that gap tomorrow?
Mag, when the primary trend is down and the swing is up, it's a bull trap.
hi zigi
This bear trap we've got just now occurs when a bear market reverses its trend while bearish investors who thought the decline would continue sell short. The bears are eventually forced to buy at a higher price to cover their short position when the decline doesn't occur.
So thats why we had this rally.
cranium >>> I'm not working on any precise targets for a reversal. I would not doubt Ian's figures. Best if we all use Ian's I think.
angelina
I was thinking of shorting that* let us know please* if you go for it
Mechanical and maggot,this sounds naive I know but what is a bear and bull trap<thanks in advance>gosh I had a job finding this thread
hello to all the rest some good comments,I went long ARM holdings before close hope the techmark doesn`t do a U turn tomorrow
Hi Ian & maggot
Ian good you found the place I find your chartism invaluable and look forward to your emails,it was you who directed me to IHUB.
I agree about nasdaq 1280
Although these folks might try a surpise party and push it up yet again right from the gate,some pull back is expected.
I am taking a longer view of nasdaq 1400ish and dow 9000 before I take a serious pause and sit on my hands .
I agree with goodfella on this,but I could be very wrong
I think you were hoping for this exact scenarion to go short and you got it.
Nice to see you here friend
maggot :can you give us any ideas about the levels
cranium
Hi Fibo - found the board.
Targets for an ABC correction where A=C met nearly perfectly at the close today.
Dow wave A was 767pts. Target for Wave C = 8717.
S&P wave A was 75pts. Target for wave C = 889 (slightly exceeded).
Nas wave A was 98 pts. Target for wave C = 1332 (slightly exceeded).
The move appears to be finishing with an ending diagonal.
(Draw an upper trendline across Thur high and todays pm action.
Draw the lower trensline across the lows from Wed.)
There has been a slight throwover of this line at the close (this is not abnormal).
I am looking for a significant down day tomorrow.
A break of the lower trendline would target the base of the wedge, i.e. Wed lows.
The alternative is a normal retrace (e.g. 38.2%) which would put the Dow around 8270, S&P 852, nasdaq 1280.
The dollar did not quite reach my target of 107.7 (reached 104.4) and now looks toppy.
I am short all 3 indices and the dollar.
Called the C wave 1 day early (I gotta stop being early!).
Regards,
Ian
It's a bull trap
Its a bear trap
Yep
I reckon, hammer Reversal top ... or a doji star tomorro
regards, Maggot
