Dave - your blog just gets better all the time - very user friendly and the highlighting of key ideas and setups makes it really accessible with out getting lost. This week has some exciting setups, and your constant flow of a Veteran's bird's eye view of the markets is invaluable.

My natural tendency is to fade markets, and it hasn't worked out that well. Your crisp technical evaluations are making a difference, and i am gradually becoming more of a trend trader, which should be more profitable over the long haul.

thanks Mr D !
