MG, Been looking at the charts you brought to the meeting. You did tell me which package you used to produce them. The layout is sinilar to Sharescope's, but you said they were from a different package. I can't recall the company name or whether it is from an online web site. Grateful for the information.
Funny meeting, liked to have had a chat about the charts. Noticed time intervals and also indicators. It is interesting how some indicators are not in step with the channels. Hope you made a couple of bob yesterday.
Regards

As mentioned during yesterdays meet:
For the first time in six years, it is now possible to earn interest on your savings of 7%. The recent rise in the cost of lending between banks, which has pushed up some mortgage rates, is now leading to higher savings on some accounts.

Well, I've never bought a bank before .... don't really plan to start right now.... but in future they might present an even better 'recovery' play than 'today' if events keep unfolding....

And we still have no indication of "who owes who what" in America or over here yet -):

I thought China and the Saudis owned America.
Forgot the Israelies' Share.
Think it is time to duck now. 8-)
I think when this period of market turmoil has finished and the hysteria has settle down, it will be seen as a lot of over reaction.
My feeling the real fly in the ointment is the Middle East, especially present warmongering against Iran. The drop out from Iraq and a little later similar from Afghanistan.
Also more important China's 10% inflation and whether they might dump the dollar hoard to embarras the American economy.
Tricky. Meanwhile I am holding on, but wishing a bit that like you and Survivor was watching.
