That's funny. I used to smoke Camels. Guess that is why I am not so hip on tobacco anymore... I can't have one!... But I will breath any second hand smoke I can get...
Back when I was in the Army (86-90) you could buy the Camel Filterless at the exchange for $10 a carton plus they had a $5 coupon on the back that you could use at the register so $5 a carton. That was all I smoked at the time. I quit smoking about 10 yrs ago and somehow started dipping snuff. Not a good substitute but I am content with it...
I can hardly believe how much a carton costs nowdays. You were getting a really good deal back then getting a carton for $5... Now it costs about that much just for a pack of smokes...
I have't even priced them in a long time... I don't even miss smoking that much. Oh, well it is time for tradin. My Short has been taken out in pre market so I will wait see what happens after open. If we pull back up to where I can short at 1276.50 I will if not I will take the short from yesterday at 1270.50. Have a good trading day everybody
Here is an indicator that some of you may be interested in. I haven't used it myself but it's intention is to help filter the noise from the market. It is called "Crabel Stretch" and if you are using eSignal it can be located here http://forum.esignalcentral.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1171 It is calculated by taking the 10 day average of difference between the close and the (high/low). Which ever is the smallest is used in the calculation. Then you add/subtract this to/from the open and this gives you your entry point. It has been suggested by another ET poster to add 10% to this figure to keep you off of the ragged edge. Russ
CCI has broken 200 twice with corresponding bullish divergence in the MACD, so I don't think it's going to be falling this morning. I'm not entering a trade on this info, just using it to determine potential direction and get ready for my setup. Later, JJ
I'll be waiting. If we don't hit 1270.50 then I have will have to wait and see if there might be some chartpattern develop that I want to trade. So far I am flat today. What charting service do you use, JJ...
