A badly-needed comment cleaner during this loony midnight hour:

Real Time Reaction
Well, I just finished watching the first debate, which ended a few minutes ago. First of all, if we assume that a Trump victory would mean more stock market gains, then it seems the real-time reaction is that Trump won.

Helter Skelter
I’ve been going a bit over-the-top with label-making. It’s tedious, time-consuming, but creating a deep store of value that I’ll be able to share with you later. Here are just some of the labels I’ve made and applied. You really should try this feature in SlopeCharts.

Debatable Decisions
Slope has been the centerpiece of my life for fifteen years now. I pour my passions into it, whatever they may be. It gives me an outlet for expression, creativity, and my own industry. As a business, it gives me the opportunity to provide premium services to those of you who are successful enough (or at least have the desire to be) to pay for high-quality tools and analysis. Evidently, 14.95/month is beyond the reach of some people.
Simply stated, I bust my ass for my premium members, and I cherish each and every one of them. The vast majority of the reason I have stifled my love of political discussion is, frankly, retention. I was gob-smacked to discover that visitors on my site don’t necessarily share my political sensibilities, so I’d rather STFU about it rather than having one of my paying members head for the Exit door. I work too goddamned hard for that to happen. So I’ll self-censor. For now, at least.

I spent virtually the entire trading day labeling my ticker symbols (jealous?) It’s fascinating the categorizations I am discovering, particularly when I stumble across patterns whose regular rhythms and patterns are so tantalizing:
