Dig My Grave

I'm trying to pull myself together, because Anne Hathaway's freakishly large mouth and eyes are getting on my nerves. Some pervasive social icons bug me more than others.

A number of folks have asked me wondering where the Retracement Levels feature in TOS' ProphetCharts is. Folks, folks, I've tried to explain this before, but let me try again:

When a new version of ProphetCharts comes out, we roll it out to either Prophet.net or the Toolbox, or sometimes both. That's the beauty of web-based products. Instant delivery.

The TOS application has to "bundle" the .jar file so it isn't instantly available. Any given ProphetCharts usually gets rolled into whatever the "next" release of TOS is, which is typically a week or two after the web release.

So…………it's coming, it's coming!

A Superb RL Example

Before the market opened, I dutifully entered the figures from RetracementLevels.com into ProphetCharts (via the spiffy new Retracement Levels dialog box). I was already short the ES. The jobs report came out, the ES zoomed higher, but it was a contained move. Then, blammo, the /ES plunged. Let's check it out:

So I covered the /ES at about 890 for a nice profit. Pretty sweet, eh? These levels are able to provide a marvelous combination of confidence and guidance, in my experience. Love 'em!

The jobs report was just released moments ago.

Funny enough, the /ES shot higher on the news (at least for the moment). A more positive statistic is that page views on this new blog platform crossed the ten million mark a few days ago.

Cool!

It was a real pleasure using the zippy new "retracement levels" tool in ProphetCharts. Now I can watch the /ES move higher with a greater feeling of confidence and accuracy.
