About market, TAPE turned around in a big way, all you have to do is see the internals of this market tonight vs last night, i am extremely disciplined in reading market through internals. Once internals are positive my comfort level is extremely high. All the key indices are making higher highs vs few days ago, that is another indicator which turned UP today. All indices are above some magic numbers like S&P 500 above 2100, Nasdaq above 5,000K and Dow above 18000K...none of this was there last night....all in all major positives was attained in technicals..This should lead us to new all time highs in short order. Last note, those who follow the market NEVER FIGHT THE TAPE.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

PS...tonight i am starting 9 years of publishing this BLOG, thanks to worldwide audience which includes all continents who log in to read my BLOG, it is a real labor of love to write this BLOG.

Hi Saleem,

Swapped some speculative stocks:

Sold CSOD @ ~29.92
Bought YELP @ 48.995

I like the chart and short interest on YELP much better.

Hi Saleem,

Actually, I'm already somewhat regretting buying YELP. Sometimes I get too caught up short-term price action and forget why I wasn't in the stock in the first place.

Good luck with more RAD--such a great continuing emergence story! :)

Hi Stocktrader,

We are all victim of our trading style and strategy...BUT most of the time it works....as long as law of averages hold...it is all part of the game.
