My last BLOG.....

 This BLOG was started in April of 2007.....

NOW It IS 16 years and 2 months later...

All things have to come to an end....

After all these 16 + years, It was my extreme pleasure to write this BLOG, @ least 40 plus countries residents visited this BLOG....

My friends from USA were my most frequent visitors...thanks to you all.

Monitoring markets have been extremely stressful and making sense of IT was incredibly challenging...

Market dynamics changes on an hourly basis and to sum It UP in a tiny summary was difficult on a daily basis....BUT I enjoyed dealing with IT in my OWN summation.

Sincere thanks to 624,494 visitors who took time to read my way of Interpreting this difficult market.

It was getting extremely stressful to trade frequently during the day and then try to do my BLOG lately, thus resulting in closing this BLOG....

I sincerely hope that you all will understand my need to rest after hectic daily trading......when I am literally exhausted with all the research & decision making process for daily trading.

As per my parting trading philosophy the following are important trading rules for me :

RSI matters

Sentiments matters

VIX matters

Volume matters

Keep an eye on 4 key metrics for a reliable trading decision.....

Once again, Thanks so much for your daily visits to my BLOG, I enjoyed It for last 16 years....special thanks to Stocktrader who has been an active participant in our daily trading activity, He IS a very good trader with great technical skill, better than most famed technicians.

Good luck to you all in your trading going forward.....

Wishing you all a very happy life!!!

Regards,

Saleem Akhtar

Hi Saleem,

Thank you for your hard work and providing a platform for sharing and collaborating throughout the years.

Blog can be stressful and with the type of research, time and effort that you put in.

We will miss your daily blog for sure.

However, I do hope the stock100 page still active for sharing stock picks from you, stocktrader and your blog readers. This helps a lot.

With best Wishes!

Hi Saleem,

Thanks for sharing your ideas and views about the market. This year you did extremely well with your portfolio. You deserve it. You clearly put lot of time and effort into running the blog.

I am going to miss you and your thoughts and ideas.

I do hope someone who is kind and generous will continue the blog or start a new blog where we all can learn and share our ideas. It will be of great help if Stocktrader can continue the blog.

Saleem, Once again I sincerely thank you for your time and generosity.

Enjoy your time with your family and friends.

With utmost respect and gratitude

Joe

Hi Saleem,

It has been so many years that I don't even know how or when it started, but the journey along the way was so amazing in both friendship and profits!

Whenever I took over the blog for a week during one of your well-deserved times off, it was an arduous process to try and provide information and commentary that would be of use to all visiting. I can not imagine the mountains of hours you've put in over 16 years for DAILY BLOGS! The market saw tremendous ups and downs during the time, and you were there through it all for everyone. It has truly been an invaluable resource for so many!

Thank you so very much for all your time and wisdom and presence throughout the many years - you will be sorely missed but I respect your decision to free up more time for yourself after all the amazing service you provided for no reason other than to try and help others. I'm sure many, including myself have become better investors and people after all these years = trading the market with patience and intelligence is a full life lesson.

I put you up there with the elite investors of our time. May your next endeavor be as fruitful!

Truly thankful for everything,

Stocktrader

Hi Stocktrader,

Thank you so much for your very special thought you have penned.

Yes I too enjoyed writing this BLOG through Financial meltdown to other crisis and tried to makes sense in reacting to or dealing with as traders.
Based on reaction and desire for continuation, I have tweaked my BLOG format to merge desired expectations.

Besides nightly summary, will continue my Sunday " big picture thesis"

Appreciated your kind words for my effort.
