I just go to advanced mode, put it in WYSIWYG mode and then copy/paste it from Excel. Once I do that, I bring up the properties and add the grid and set the width... viola

Thanks, I am actually feeling better this morning AND I may not have to go in tonite!!!

Ok RMI, I need you to hold my hand again... can't find the button to put it in WYSIWYG mode. Where is it?
 
Oh boy, "The Cooler" has returned in the form of member Frito 15 and has taken a 30% S fund position - get out of the water while you still have legs.

Well, I could say something but I won't. Everyone knows the markets are going up...

I think PermaBull will have his biggest post count day in a long while...

Many investors miss the fact that opportunity missed can be just as harmful to achieving investment objectives in the long term as money lost. Don't let myopic loss aversion be your guide into the future. Corporate stock buybacks in this cycle are already outpacing the incredible pace of 2003-2007 cycle.

Well, what a day... I guess I will call it a week-end, lick my wounds, and come back next week... I will probably have to realize some loses next week and it won't be pretty. I need to admit the market is going to go up no matter what bad news, or semi good news we get. None of the market, US economic, or EU economic fundamentals have improved yet we are back to levels not seen (on average, lets not talk about the NASDAQ) since 2008. I don't know about you, but I think things are worse now than in 2008.

As I am sure to get flames, each has their own perspective and opinion. Please feel free to voice yours respectfully.

Have a Blessed week-end and enjoy your time with Family and Friends as they are much more important than the markets...

Well, what a day... I guess I will call it a week-end, lick my wounds, and come back next week... I will probably have to realize some loses next week and it won't be pretty. I need to admit the market is going to go up no matter what bad news, or semi good news we get. None of the market, US economic, or EU economic fundamentals have improved yet we are back to levels not seen (on average, lets not talk about the NASDAQ) since 2008. I don't know about you, but I think things are worse now than in 2008.

As I am sure to get flames, each has their own perspective and opinion. Please feel free to voice yours respectfully.

Have a Blessed week-end and enjoy your time with Family and Friends as they are much more important than the markets...

You may soon have to get rid of that "lol" on your signal column...

Not really... mainly because of the weighting of J-Trader's system. His is short term and has been short a few times since this recent rally started.

I am working on moving averages (simple and exponential) to give some smoothness to changes in system positions. I am thinking that a cross between a short and a medium term moving average may give a better signal than just a weighted average... who knows ;-)

I would be very glad for a downturn in the market right now as I really do need a good buy in point and I just don't feel now is good with the markets so extended from their 20 and 50 SMA... but that is apparently just me as everyone seems to be so Birchtree-ish...

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!!

Who (other than a cranky old man who rents or already paid off his home) would be against that?

Me. I'm the cranky old man. The government needs to GET OUT of the home loan guaranteeing business. I do not "owe more than 140% of their (my) current home value" but I still have a mortgage.

To be eligible for the new refinancing program, borrowers must not have missed a mortgage payment for at least six months and have no more than one late payment in the six months prior to that. They also must have a credit score of 580 or better, a threshold that the administration says 9 out of 10 borrowers meet.

The borrower's mortgage balance also cannot exceed the loan limits for FHA-insured loans in their communities, which range from $271,050 in low housing cost areas to $729,250 in high-cost ones. They also must own and occupy the home covered by the loan.

The administration wants the program to include a provision requiring lenders to take a "haircut" by writing down mortgage balances of deeply underwater loans -- those whose borrowers owe more than 140% of their current home values. By doing so, it would greatly reduce the risk that the borrower will default, the administration said.

Well that was a little partisan shot at Obama, via Santelli, ehh?

Actually, I was amused at the rant and the response on the floor and not so much the information, although at the time was true. I, unlike you, do not see everything with partisan, rose-colored glasses...

FireWeatherMet said:
However that Santelli soundbite is from 3 years ago. But I guess Obama was listening...the mortgage refinance Obama is currently proposing is for people currently up to date on their mortgages. This would also lessen the chances of more people walking away from their homes...and also give people $200-$600 a month more to pump into the general economy...

I don't doubt that this would give them more money to spend, but I would wager that most would use that money to pay off debt, which would have NO impact on the general economy until they had all their debt paid off, which could be awhile.

as opposed to pumping it into the banks who already have been hoarding record cash reserves that they are not reinvesting into the economy.

Those cash reserves are REQUIRED by the USG, so don't blame them for doing what they are told to do...

I challenge anyone to explain why this is a bad thing? We subsidize the Oil Industry...we subsidize Wall St with reduced capital gains on investments.
Click to expand...
I am with you on corporate welfare, but I am wondering why you and James keep bringing this up when it is not relevant to the current conversation... We shouldn't subsidize business, period. Oil or Green, I don't care.

How about helping out the stressed home-owner that is current on their mortgage. A reward for "good behavior"...in not walking away from their mortgages.

If they are current and can make the payments, is the only issue reducing the interest rate?

No who is being offensive. If you can't conduct yourself better than this, stay out of my thread...

I am neither old or paid off, but I am cranky... If they have their house paid off, GOOD FOR THEM... Are you jealous or something? I am really curious why you get so offended by someone who does things RIGHT without needed help from someone else? Just saying...
 
This is another"cash for clunkers program". A savings of a few hundred dollars a month is not going to keep folks in a home they are upside down by 30%
or more. Most of those folks bought homes they could not afford to begin with. The rest used their homes like an "ATM" and refinanced them for all they could get. Lets reward bad behavior and the hell with those that were respnsible and did the right thing. A better stimulas would have been to give every American cirizen a million dolllares rather then bailing out wall street and the banks and the AAWU! Let the markets correct themselves. The system works. BIG GOV'T
is what got us into trouble to begin with. Just one mans opinion.
