Thank you, happydog
Yes, he seems to be fired up about God like I was when I was young attending a bible college.
You are sweet and it is a fine line how to speak "dunamus" ( spell) and to be polite. I forgot how to spell dunamus (Words of God - live with power or living Words of God).
Happy in the Lord since we found friends in Christ.
Yes, I know, thanks My first college degree is in biblical studies before I went to study finance/accounting, so I do remember some of what I studied and also I continue to study as well.
I would like you to be careful how you communicate your point since I find your message can be perceived as a bit rude.
That would be a turn off to some.
We as a Christian need to be careful.
It is a good thing that you are young man who is fired up about God.
Would like to hear about your testimony if you have one or posted one, please send me the link.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks, and be sure to LIVE His Words
God bless
Thanks, happydog
You have a sweet spirit.
God bless
Nice Board here. Thank you, Lord
I respect one's choice to believe whatever they want to believe, but I am a Christian.
"Loving others" is more important than forcing others to believe what we think that they should believe.
Would like to see, "World Peace".
Hope that you respect my belief as I respect yours since we may have some differences of our opinion.
If you have good prayers or inspirational words, please post, on the board.

MA, The news, yes, seems to be evolving and was never a fact, but I thought it was a rumor. This news is not a new news... sounds funny, but we heard this before; then, market faded the news like what we have seen today.
I think that market is in bullish sentiment, taking the news as bullish following AMZN price action. Having said that, fading the YHOO news wasn't a bullish sign.
Considering factors, seasonality and RST resistances, it is easy to be bearish at this point. I also am aware of cyclical points so I am also being careful.
From the breakout of SPX 1500 to SPX 1550 target, I am reassessing market strength. SPX 1550 is the target which I set and I do not see a top formation yet even though market is trading at resistance.
Smart people can form different opinions without wasting time since attacking behavior is after all a sign of weakness. Especially blunt attacks.
As said before, I think that you are intelligent - both mentally and emotionally.
Have a nice weekend... ALL
Yes, it is good to know the components, especially, for major holdings.
We have our weakness since I experience it as well. Market is a good self-discipliner of course unless trading with computer program like what we have seen during YHOO Trading. It seems that most of hedge fund traders are cranking up trading strategies today.
SMH is showing negative D, so a pull back is a nice thing. Then, I will reassess market strength even though it seems that it is a easy market Top call at this point.
Have a good weekend.
AKAM bounced off from the support, nice call.
On weekly chart, it formed a bullish hammer.
Have a nice weekend
The news changed to Joint Venture since they are trying to find a way to be mutually benefited by merger or joint venture.
I still think that it is better for them to merge or to joint venture to be competitive.
SPX and DOW have broken above upper TL resistance, i.e. RST.
Even though markets are trading at resistances, I don't see markets are at tops for a meaningful pull back yet.
Have a good weekend

Microsoft, Yahoo In Joint Venture Talks, Says New York Times
Topics:Mergers & Acquisitions
Paul Sakuma / AP
Yahoo!'s headquarters in Sunnyvale, California.
The New York Times reported that Microsoft and Yahoo are in talks about a joint venture or some other form of cooperation, running counter to earlier media reports that the two were in merger talks.
The discussions, still in preliminary stages, are part of an ongoing dialogue that the two companies have been holding for more than a year, the Times said, citing people briefed on the talks.
Microsoft, Yahoo talks no longer active: WSJ
By Gabriel Madway
Last Update: 4:21 PM ET May 4, 2007
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Talks between Microsoft Corp. (MSFT :
Microsoft Corporation
YHOO30.98, +2.80, +9.9% ) over a possible combination are no longer active, according to a media report late Friday. The Wall Street Journal reported on its Web site that in recent months the two companies discussed a possible merger, but that the discussions are no longer active. The two companies may still explore other ways of cooperating, the Journal reported. Yahoo shares closed 10% higher at $30.98 on Friday following earlier reports that the company was in talks to possibly be acquired by Microsoft in a $50 billion deal.
Individual stocks are quite volatile as we hear mega merger news such as MSFT and YHOO today. I think that it is a good move.
We haven't heard anything on SMH components yet, but there was a rumor that AMAT could buy AMD.
$SOX is trading above 500 resistance, it is trading at 505 at the moment. Good thing that you pointed out the differences of $SOX and SMH components. I did check it before, but do not recall which ones are mutually exclusive. I think that some are included in $SOX and SMH.
SPX closed under SPX 1506 intraday resistance which I noted and it seems that SMH didn't move since your short.

Yes, like you, I renew my mind from various sources including affirmation and prayers.
Like your post, "This is going to be a great day!".
Also, I believe in God, but also respect others' choice to believe what they want to believe.
Not sure what your faith is, whatever it made be based on.

All right, the SPX 1506 intraday resistance is held, so market is trading down at the resistance after a bounce.

OK Market is showing volatility. It turned up again fast and furious trading -- positive, negative, and now positive again.
VIX is forming Sym Triangle on daily.
We could see SPX 1510 if this uptrading continues. SPX 1506 is intraday resistance now.
Internet is broken above the 214.70 resistance which I noted during Premarket.
Yes, doing well. Also, you are doing well too.
Market pulled back from SPX 1510 with intraday neg D. and now it is trading at SPX 1506 intraday Resistance.
With the YHOO news, internet sector is broken above resistance on daily.
I hope that you will affirm your positive faith on a new board at where I decided to be positive thinker than ever before.

You have nice board even though I need to understand your message.

Thank you, Liz, for the invitation.
I will visit your EG House.
Certainly I do not think that you are evil, but you are good.
We all have good and evil side, but we strive to be good.
Hope that you will inspire us with good pictures, words, prayers, affirmation, etc.
Thanks again and have a great weekend
The_Game, I think that you could soon if you put your positive mind to it. Like I did today.
I decided to be positive thinker than ever before.
Hope that you are having a nice day. SPX is pulling back at SPX 1510.
Have a nice weekend
I remember your SPX 1510, but YHOO?
MSFT and YHOO will do better together combining their strength. I like the idea of merger or a buyout.
Good call on SPX 1510 resistance, it is slightly below Resistance, but it is a congested resistance area.
As noted, intraday 30m also shows neg divergence, so this is a healthy pull back. As for the time, I will have see whether it is going to be a more than intraday pull back.
Well, maybe SPX will close near at 1510 even though I do not think so...
Enjoy the weekend
Market is pulling back at the resistance SPX 1510. I do not think that it will reverse on intraday to trade back to SPX 1510.
Daily and intraday price action shows negative divergence, so a pull back is a healthy thing.
As stated before, I don't see a ST/LT top yet. Will reassess based on this pull back, but also remember May 10th is a Turn date.
Have a nice weekend
Thanks WB, you can also call me as 1best now since that is corrected as well.
Market is pulling back from SPX 1510 resistance. I do not think that this is the ST/LT top.
Have a great weekend
Thanks, Tina
You are right about that. We must defeat negative thoughts.
This is a constant battle within and among us, so we need to refresh our strength to be positive and productive instead of negative and destructive.
Thank you for your inspirational posts and I hope that you continue to encourage us.
Today is going to be beautiful, productive, and peaceful day.
It is not what happens to us, but what we do with what happens to us.
Thank you, LORD, for Your Grace!
Have a great weekend, ALL!

Yes, it is your first post with a positive message.
I believe that the positive thinking has a power to renew our mind and it will spread to others. We will eventually see the positive effect from the positive thoughts within ourselves to the world peace.
You have excellent talent to be positive, goal driven, and helpful mindset... well, that's what I have observed so far; so, I hope that we can help each other to turn ourselves, friends, and the world to be positive!
Thank you and have a great weekend!
Market is trading at a resistance SPX 1510 (ahimsa noted) with negative divg on 30m. I am anticipating a pull back to reset intraday price actions; then, reassess market strength.
SPX and DOW have broken above upper TL resistances, i.e. RST-Megaphone upper TL.
Have a nice weekend
Market is continuing to show strength, SPX is trading above 1500.
1510 is intraday resistance and 30m is showing slight negative divergence, so I am anticipating a pull back. A health consolidation is a good thing; then, will reassess the market strength.
Note that SPX and DOW have broken above upper resistances shown on daily charts below.
Have a great weekend, Friend!
WB, Friend, I just signed up for Premium Membership.
Thank you for all your help!

Today is going to be a fantastic wonderfully AWESOME day!

Thank you, Tina Marie, for your beautiful, positive message.
I just signed up for Premium membership.
Have a great day
Your target of SPX 1410 +/-, market is pulling back.
Intra price action, 30m, is showing negative divergence. so, I am also think that it is a good idea for market to consolidate.
I hope that you are having a nice day.
Good trading & Thanks
Good morning, SPX is trading at 1509 at the moment above 1500 resistance. It is also trading above upper TL as it is broken above the resistance today. Yesterday, I commented on DOW showing strength noting that it is trading above upper TL resistance.
It seems that SPX is heading to SPX 1550 target, as noted before, I didn't see a top for ST/IT yet. I changed my market sentiment from bearish during Dec2006-Feb2007 to bullish as I saw a bottom on March 05.
At what point will you change your sentiment/bias if you were bearish?
Good tradings
SPX is trading at 1506 above the 1500 resistance.
Also, DOW is trading above the TL resistance, thus, market is continuing to show strength.
Breadth is positive.

Agree on your comment, exactly what I think that not everything is positive, but positive thinking will help to make the same situation better.
I also know that you make both bullish and bearish calls, so hopefully we can make ourselves and others better.
Internet sector seems to be breaking out with today's trading.
Thanks and good tradings
MA, Happy Friday ALL, Thanks
YHOO is up BIG, MSFT could be buying YHOO.
It seems like it would be an excellent deal since it will make the companies to be stronger by combining the strength.
It is trading around 33 at the moment in premarket
NEW YORK, May 4 (Reuters) - U.S. stock futures pointed to a higher open on Friday on deal news, including a report Microsoft (MSFT,Trade) is intensifying its pursuit of a deal to buy Yahoo Inc. (YHOO,Trade) and before jobs data.
Thanks for SSEC holiday, for seven days.
About the market cycle, you did not intend to be disrespectful by making such comment toward me, and I take your comment to be a humor or to be in general, not necessarily speaking to me. You have seen me calling market calls for both bearish and bullish sides which were accurate market calls so I do not just hope.
Futures are up at the moment.
Good tradings and have a good day, my friend.

Well, the purpose is to generate positive thinking, so we can renew our mind to gain new strength. Also, I wanted to discuss other topics with positive thinking approach.
We can be positive thinker messengers for the world, starting from our own mind.
Positive thinking can be like ripple which can echo through those around us. We create positive energy within ourselves, in our family, in our neighbor, in our school, in our work place, in our country, and in our world to be better place to live.
The better world starts within each one of us.
Yes, as I replied to WB shown below.
I think that you are a positive thinker in general.
We had a discussion yesterday on OT, so I thought that we can discuss OT on other board and also we can write out positive thinking when we need to refresh our mind. For me, the writing could be my prayer or positive affirmation.
It is not about technical analysis... I think that you intended a humor.
Good luck and good trading

On the Market... It seems that China market is in holidays and $KOSPI is positive. Futures are mildly negative at the moment.

Those formations can be misleading and market makers could intentionally send mixed signals.
Well, I think that it is in Washington State. Have you seen those Positive Thinkers on the board? I think that we need to have positive affirmations each day so that we can do well in the market as well as we think positive about our situation.
We are often too negative about situations, as a result we are making ourselves worse instead of making ourselves to be better than yesterday. It does not have be materialistic but other intangible quality of our lives.
Have healthy mind would definitely help our performance playing the markets. For now, I think that I will use this board - once a day with stock market comments as well.
Peace
