Stock technical indicators June 10, 2010

Michael T posted an article on - Jun 10, 2010, 4:56 am
First - an interesting technical indicator of the markets sentiment is the rising volume of SQQQ - Proshares Ultra short. Clearly, no trades are long term and the expectation is for another sharp decline. Trade lightly - another drop is coming. But as I run and rerun my perl technical analysis an...

Best stocks to buy right now

Michael T posted an article on - Jun 3, 2010, 11:42 am
None. Wait until after August 2010. The Nasdaq is ready for a correction based on a recent (April to June 2010 activity) rising market and declining volumes. Trades are not decisive. All it will take is North and South Korea to escalate or Japan to mention the word default and look out below. Also...

Stock Picks for 5/17 from Perl Technical Analysis System

Michael T posted an article on - May 18, 2010, 4:50 am
So how did the stocks from below do versus the NASDAQ from 5/18 to 6/1? Only slightly better and I do mean slightly. But interestingly, a correlation does exist between the price on 5/18 and the amount of negative change in price through 6/1. So, if I were to blindly follow the scores and didn'...

Perl Stock Scoring System

Michael T posted an article on - May 16, 2010, 11:43 am
I have completed my perl stock scoring routine. It scores the changes in the technical analysis and weights the more recent changes more. I use my own weighting function that is close to exponential but not so severe at the end and a little less quick in the beginning. It's also more flexible to...

I need to develop my XML database skills - Sedna implementation possibly and I want to do more with ...

Google offers free wifi at Charlotte/Douglas International Airport

Michael T posted an article on - Nov 10, 2009, 5:38 pm
Google has it's eye on being the provider of all things web (not exactly news) and is getting a feel for the logistics with WiFi. The three services (Phone, Internet, Information access - Search) are all related and the winner will be the one that connects them. I like Google's chances - exc...
