Spiderman  - all the way 

[Spiderman]

Thanks for making the update.
I use Yahoo finance too to check the open price.

Comment on CCL- Tried to push higher today, but failed to hold- with a second close under the fast ema-
In prior price actions, following a red bar close under the fast ema, there has usually
been further selling to follow-
Recent price declines making swings lower have been followed by additional upside-With $63 the most recent swing low.
Pullbacks are normal - and higher highs and higher swing lows are what makes a trend- This was a push to make a new high- that failed to find enough buying strength today to close higher. so it's a dbl top formation- The price Action Friday should give a better indication of whether the troops are gathering for another try, or willing to retreat for a bit.... But the prior swing low- 63ish should not be closed below IMO...

I'll take GLYC at today's close- Presently it has popped 10% higher on the day- and MRAM was giving back some of it's gains- AAOI has popped higher! Several hours to go though!

[blygh]

I picked up some GLYC too (at 13) thanks SD - shorted NVDA - long on CLF - still holding EXAS for a gain (thanks Spiderman)

"I picked up some GLYC too (at 13) thanks SD - shorted NVDA - long on CLF - still holding EXAS for a gain (thanks Spiderman) "
i have to add i shot myself in the foot-inadvertently also moved the stops in GLYC for no good reason- and was stopped out yesterday...

Two old saws  1) Nobody ever went broke taking profits.
                     2) When the small caps peak, the bull market is over 

Worried that the QQQ gained while the S&P 500 was down.  Next week - the last of the second quarter should be volatile as fund and pension managers square up their portfolios.  I am hanging close to the exits.

Congrats Spiderman! A big run higher!
To Blygh's cautionary note- I agree- When you don't have broad market participation, it pays to not be complacent-
Right now Tech, Healthcare seems to be holding the reins-- Biotech is certainly seeing an influx. Some semi-s

I'm cautiously long Tech in general using TQQQ -, XBI for healthcare, and a few other individual positions.
