Looking Less Neutral
Another round of resilience for precious metals and miners' bulls has my eye this morning. Recently, apparent breakdowns in the gold and silver complex, along with their derivative miners, have failed to come to fruition as buyers have stepped in to stem the tide.

With a confirmed case of Ebola in Glasgow, Scotland, HazMat makers APT LAKE are running again. For perspective, I present to you their weekly charts, below. Since the big run-up I traded back in the autumn months, they have both shook out latecomers handily, and then chopped around for a long consolidation. We have seen some one-off pops out...

Someone is Lying and Needs to Be Interrogated
While crude oil and Russian stocks (gauging the RSX ETF) look to be staging clear breakdowns today, the energy stocks themselves in the XLE ETF (and the oil service stocks in the OIH ETF) are hanging in there.

Dueling with a Familiar Foe; Chess Moves
I noted on Stocktwits and Twitter a few moments ago ( @chessNwine ) that I went long UGAZ at $4.96 with protective stop-loss below $4.70. The position represents roughly 4% of my trading portfolio capital. I plan on swinging the trade for a few days if it goes according to plan, which is a steady move higher. UGAZ is the triple-long natural...

A Nice Reflection on These Two Ideas
LOCK was a long setup presented last week, seen on the updated daily chart, first below. As long as $17.90 now converts into support I still consider this one an actionable long into slight pauses.

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas
The Ref (1994) is a very funny, yet underrated and overlooked film, starring Kevin Spacey, Judy Davis and Denis Leary, directed by the esteemed Ted Demme. The film did not gain too much attention when it was released. But it is a well-acted comedy, which is something not as easy to pull off as it seems. The film is set during the holiday...
