About market, TAPE made lower lows not seen since October 2014, around low there was lot of buying by professional traders / mutual funds that trimmed losses by 50% to 5%, nice turnaround. Market seldom gives you the opportunity to pick strong stocks @ low prices and it is important to look @ prices than market conditions. Internals were horrible today even after turnaround, can you imagine how bad it was @ low of the day. I switch my focus to strong stocks from turnaround stocks.TAPE may have given low prices on many stocks today which we may never see.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Saleem,

Good luck with add. I like JKS the best, and hopefully the Chinese talk about more project support going forward.

LNKD RSI @ 16...can't catch any kind of bid here.

Hi Stocktrader,

This tape is tough, extremely volatile.

LNKD is lost in barrage of selling low RSI notwithstanding.

Hi Stocktrader,

LNKD is getting bid now.

Hi Saleem,

Yes, and I wasn't actually worried about it; I knew investors would wake up eventually :) RSI 16 is too low for any stock right now--the panic liquidation in the general market is over and LNKD is mostly uncorrelated to global economic problems.

Hi Stocktrader,

It is ironic that AAPL is in same complex as BBRY.

Hi Saleem,

I don't think it's a coincidence.
