    CY you should look into TC2000, I got tired of TOS always messing me up and switched. I love it and I'll never go back to TOS. There is a bit of a learning curve, but I really love it.

    thx steve! i've been with tos forever ... i hate that they update the platform every week it seems ... and every time they do it messes things up ... kind of ridiculous ... but i will look into that tc2000 perhaps over this weekend...good to know! :)

    meanwhile, markets rolling over again ... looking to test the lod heading into the final hour?

    Hmm, this sell off seems a bit stronger than anything recent. I'm watching these levels. If the ma(50) goes we might get a decent pull back. 10%, 15% maybe/... please?...

    I did think we would see some drops in August and September which are pretty poor months. I don't see any reason to panic, Amazon carving up retail sector, Auto's depressed, China debt, but nothing to stop me sleeping. I am wary of the Energy sector and any big names going under and leaving a big pile of debt. Could it happen, not this year I think, hopefully....

    I'm cash, not much as I pulled most out, got a boatload of freebie shares from trading. Kicking back watching the show.

    the selloff seems pretty orderly (for now) ... nothing too out of the ordinary or dramatic

    i think as long as things don't escalate further with NK this is probably going to end up being yet another garden variety pullback ... we shall see :D

    Market hit LOD a moment ago, we will see whether the market will sell into the close :eek:

    Right now I still feel like we won't see a meaningful correction unless we see things escalating in North Korea like @bigbear0083 said :p

    Earnings from NVDA AH today, if it doesn't deliver then I guess we will see further selling for the tech sector tomorrow
