WooHoo!! Thanks for the video!! I love that while every other market commentator is talking doom and gloom (typical fear when the market goes down) you are the only one giving rational, historically based data that gives insight to what is probably going on in the current market environment.

Thank you!

Steve

Thanks for the video today. Even before you suggested us to let you know if we saw it, I was thinking that I was glad to see so many people asking about it when it wasn't there. At least one can know that many folks watch it and are helped by it. Just getting something like this every day at no cost can spoil us. We shouldn't wait until the video is gone to give comments on this blog. I hope more and more of us will make sure and comment whether it is there or not. Thanks again. Video or no video, the blog is appreciated for sure.

Dave, I wasn't sure if you were dead or in a Turkish prison, glad to have you back! You are like the north star when it comes to market analysis, you are the most consistent person I know of. I've listened to you for years and picked up a ton of information, but you still notice things that I don't always see. Your level of dedication to this topic is off the charts! Thanks for helping me be a better trader.
