It has also negated the promising, 0.28 bid for them/15:26 MM18Sold MSFT Oct4 410 Put $10.4515:29 MM18Are the PM's miners and bullion in a Wall of Worry or just settling back a bit or more for a breakout to new highs? Can't pull the trigger!16:0016:17 k.u.k....if you want to see real coincidence, put up the 15 minute, 5 day charts of /MESU24 and NVDA side-by-side.16:22 JoeyJoltBought back the shares I sold 8/20 in GDXJ and SLV.I've been taking some off the table on rallies and buying on pullbacks. I'm staying long but adjusting my shares and futures contracts accordingly.16:22 JoeyJoltMM-The true risk is not being invested now in the PM sector. I understand the drawdowns are uncomfortable and you may not wish to take alot of risk. Cut down your size to a manageable level. At least you'll have some exposure and be able to sleep peacefully16:25 JoeyJoltRick-nice call on NVDA. [ {{ Thanks, JJ. No pivots, just a feeling. RA }} ]17:0017:50 MM18Thanks JJ.

Interesting activity to greet the day
– Posted in: NotificationsActionable Trade-Alert from Rick in the Trading Room (Please check all related discussion in the room before you do any trades.)Friday, September 6, 2024 07:0007:50 RickES closing on 5429.38 target introduced last Sunday, then reaffirmed in the update. Price action at this midpoint Hidden Pivot support cannot but provide the 'tell' we need to determine the importance of Sep 3's secondary top and the possibility that my scenario #1 (i.e., August 1929 repeating itself) is playing out. For confirmation, we will want to factor in MSFT's expected bounce to 449.52 after it triggers a back-up-the-truck 'mechanical' buy at 401.54.08:0008:09 k.u.k.Morning, Rick. My 10 D, 30 min. chart indicates MSFT touched 400.57 and bounced with a tail on the candle. Currently: 406.37.08:10 k.u.k....at 6:00 AM EST.08:28 RickFancy that! Indeed, it did -- and thanks for the heads-up, Charles. I was barely stirring at the time, but anyone who was awake and used my target to get long should take 25%-50% off here at 407-408 and save the rest for a swing at the fences. An impulsive stop-loss can also be used.08:36 RickAlthough the Whoopee Cushion bounce has occurred from within two-tenths of a percent of 'x', I should repeat this for the umpteenth time: the green line is neither a target nor a Hidden Pivot nor a support, just a handy reference point for two types of trades we do: mechanical and conventional. It's only a stupid, annoying coincidence that these bounces from x seem to refute me by beginning 90% of the time within a hair of the green line. Virus-free.www.avg.com

An important note from the chat room
– Posted in: NotificationsActionable Trade-Alert from Rick in the Trading Room (Please check all related discussion in the room before you do any trades.)To: All subscribersFrom: RickI will be moving into another stage of my life when I leave Florida in October. I am considering returning to San Francisco, which, despite the very negative publicity, the squalor of the Tenderloin and a dying downtown, is still the hands-down greatest city in America. The redevelopment of the Presidio in particular has been a spectacular success. It has always been one of the most desirable properties in the world, even when the U.S. Army used it and when the U.S. Park Service merely maintained it. It offers amazing views, scenic hiking trails, golf courses and tennis courts, and miles of beach along the Bay. But its conversion for civilian use must be seen and experienced to be fully appreciated. Some of the credit must go to Nancy Pelosi. One of my goals for 2025 is to put Rick's Picks in capable hands so that I can pursue a big project that has beckoned me for many years: reviving muscular local journalism. I had started working on this in 2017, before divorce and cancer derailed me. Selling Rick's Picks does NOT mean I will be any less of a presence in here, only that someone else will handle the touts. Commentaries and interviews would be optional, but I would continue to play a role. Some of you are better suited than I for using interviews promotionally, since you are more knowledgeable than I about, for one, bullion and the resource sector. If any of you, or perhaps a group of subscribers, are interested in buying Rick's Picks, please contact me at rick@rickackerman.com. I will train you in all aspects of the Hidden Pivot Method and also
Silver update
– Posted in: NotificationsActionable Trade-Alert from Rick in the Trading Room (Please check all related discussion in the room before you do any trades.)I am continuing to track Comex Silver closely because of popular demand. Some subscribers re-entered at lower prices after getting stopped out of a position that racked up a theoretical gain of as much as $22,000. From the chat room here's my current outlook, along with a link you can copy-and-paste to see the chart I am using to call the turns: Thursday, August 15, 2024 02:0002:26 KrisKrosAmazing calls again Rick regarding Silver. I was stopped out of position around 27.50 but then when i saw your post here and it had already gone down to 27.23 i realized i had to get back in. So i ended up getting in a bit lower thanks to you. It has now passed the 27.79 indicated in your chart as it's right now at 27.95. What do you see next, sell half and target 28.61 and stop at 27.50 for the rest? I use to think i would invest in Silver and wait but given how unpredictable and jumpy it is i think it's only good for trading purposes. Gold is so much better for being long and at peace too!03:0003:07 RickThe gratuitously vicious little sonofabitch is headed to D=28.60, which coincidentally is the original rally target. The target will become an odds-on bet to be reached if the futures can overcome their stall precisely at p=28.045. Here's a chart, with an ABCD pattern that few likely see -- and that is why it will work reliably for us:03:08 Rickhttps://bit.ly/3YNclgc Virus-free.www.avg.com
