Hi Dave

Thank you so much for doing the 2 videos After The Close on Thursday, even though it was quite late. Your comments bring clarity amongst all the negative commentary. We are striving to learn to interpret the context of the charts during pull backs like these as per your teachings. We are getting better, but not there yet as we still don't have the required confidence to trust what we see on the charts.

If the markets rally, it should represent some good opportunities to trade back to the upside.

Thank you
Bruce & Susan

Hi Dave

As at the time of this comment (8:34 am MST) there is a nice bull flag set up forming on DIA.

Thanks
Bruce & Susan

"

This implies that there is money going into a larger group of stocks in smaller amounts on average, while money is coming out of a smaller group of stocks at a larger average amount. So we have buying a wide range of stocks but no net new money coming in. I'm unsure what this tells us from a weight of the evidence perspective.

Hank...I address the multi-dimensional aspect of its implications in the part 2 video this morning...NVDA down was a big part of this, but that is just one aspect...it is more the tentative nature of the bounce as I explain in the video...always follow your rules is more important than this distinction which is just a portion of what is going on this morning...DJ

Dave Johnson said...

Bruce and Susan...you are welcome...as you are probably aware I've never let time of day deter me from sharing important insights...thank you for commenting...DJ

Yes works in Android on Chrome. Mercury (Mozilla) and native internet browsers may have difficulty with playback. I typically stick with chrome since it will also allow me to download the video for offline viewing too.

Unknown said...

For iPhone and iPad, if you down load the "Puffin" app from and use that browser, you can view these videos on those devices.

Hank Hollenbaugh said...

My apologies. I had not listened to part 2 before I posted

Unknown said...

Thank you for taking the time to educate on how to use TOS. As a new user, I find that very helpful!

Dave Johnson said...

Eric...thank you very much...I appreciate that information...DJ

Don said...

Dave....I also downloaded the "Pippin" App on my iPhone. It works great.

Looking forward to the after the close videos.

Dave, I know you won't be short of Bull Flag setups tonight.

The lightbulb went on this morning when you pointed out patterns that might lead to a MACD divergence. I looked through my watchlist and saw what appears to be an ideal setup I wanted to bring to your attention. It's UTX.

Don said...

Sorry.....correction: .The app is "Puffin" Web Browser, free in the Apple App Store

Dave Johnson said...

Don...thank you...I will get it and try it...DJ

Dave Johnson said...

Tenore...UTX is a divergence setup, thanks for sharing...good eyes and a good company that is part of the DJIA...DJ

Mary:

You are Welcome.....Isn't these videos the Cat's Meow. I am excited! Thanks Dave

Unknown said...

Dave is the best.

Unknown said...

Thank you for going through the example of going through a watchlist. I especially liked when you shared about the "lightning bolt/A-B-C" and the MACD Divergence. This is something that I can start applying TODAY to become a better trader.

"Lighning bolt" finally locked it in for me too!

Thanks to Eric, Don, and Marylee for the tip on the Puffin app. I can now listen during my commute to and from work which is something I've been wanting to do. Thanks,John
