Interesting info davidjohnhall.  Where can one find the "days to cover" info?

Well, this is not options, this is a stock.  The naked short list is kind of explained here:

According to my broker, once a security hits the list, I have 10 days to liquidate or they will liquidate for me.

Which means 10 days to liquidate the position.  Any thoughts on this?  Short squeeze coming?
Topic: Santa Claus Rally
Posted: Thursday, September 8, 2005 12:50:17 PM
I'm interested in a PCF that will look for stocks that rallied significantly in the last 90 days of each calender year. Defining a 'significant rally' is one variable to tweak, say starting with 300% over 90 to 120 day period. I'm having trouble slicing the MA's over the 240 day period prior, to compare with.


Thanks in Advance....
Topic: From the Village Idiot
Posted: Saturday, April 23, 2005 6:42:33 PM
Whilst all the good knights do joust and parry (and me thinks more with the ladies than with the markets), I am wondering what thoughts the villlage people do have about the current investing environment. I have seen/heard quite a few comments/articles in the media saying the housing bubble is perilously close to busting. Be that as it may, Congress passed, and the President signed new bankruptcy laws, making it harder for individuals to get out from under debt. Add in to the mix the trade deficit, with the US Treas reliance on Asia to buy its paper every quarter, and growing concern about the reliability of those investors. Further, our good Fed captain insists that tax increases be a part of any move to balance the federal budget, and assures us that higher interest rates will come. And while 'private accounts' for Social Security look dead in the water, one has to wonder about the true motivation behind such a move. Is it only just a way to reduce the Fed liability by shunting it into the market?

This idiot sees at best stagnant range bound markets. Classical market analysis (of which I know little) viewed the market as an indicator of coming economic activity. With the current markets heading down, this does not bode well for Q2 and 3. At worst, I hope the mortgage is fully paid on the castle and grounds. I try not to be cynical about the motivations of our leaders, but as all good knights do know, 'tis the deed, not the word, by which we are ultimately judged.
Topic: MS and TSV crossing over center line

Hi,

I would like a pcf that returns true when either MS or TSV cross over (in the up direction) their center line. How would I do that?

The 20 day and 50 day moving averages just crossed the 200 day, so it does look poised for a move up. I would look for an entry between 13 and 13.50. Good luck.
Topic: Willl it be a good or bad day to trade?
Posted: Wednesday, December 8, 2004 11:14:10 PM
If you are a trader - you trade. You have a strategy, you have done your homework, picked your targets, and set your entry, stop and target points. If the market goes against your analysis, then your losses are minimized, and you live to trade again. If the market follows your analysis, you profit...which is the point.
Your analysis tells you whether to take long or short positions. You typically do not want to fight the market, so if a stock is uptrending you favor long position....downtrends are short opportunities. While it is emotionally exciting to watch the markets carry your positions you should not trade based on emotion. The whole idea of technical analysis is to increase your probability of trading successfully...it demands a disciplined approach. I guess the above is just a long winded way of saying most any day is a good day to trade...
