FRED: Now 26 days inside the range of prices seen on JL 17.  Still looks like a symmetric triangle.  But it doesn’t really matter what the fuck this stock does because I’ve already decided not to buy it for this go-round.

TNA: Disappointing.  Only 0.3% gain in ten days.  Stop-out.

URTY: After last Friday’s pre-emptive sale, this re-entry had low risk.  However, it managed to lose 0.3% in four days, cancelling out the gain from TNA.  Slippage on the stop-out caused me to lose the entire initial risk.  I just like obsessing over these minor technical details to avoid looking at the big picture of the unending horror that is my life as a stock trader.

ATML: Buy-signals for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday; none of the orders reached their limit prices.  No signal for next Monday.

UWM: Monday AU 18’s buy-order did not reach limit.  No buy for Wednesday because SMA(q) < CHANDELIER(+).  There is a buy signal for next Monday, but even if it reaches limit I’ll probably lose money because nothing ever goes my way on the stock market.
