 DUST is almost ready...once the 4 hour chart crosses over it should be a nice swing trade.

 Re:  "This market scares the crap out of me."
 =================================
 
 Having been hit by 3 major bear markets in my life, I've been "scared" for the last 8 years.
 That's why I STOPPED trading.
 Now, I've got a portfolio of conservative stocks.
 I just "nibble" occasionally.
 I bought 2 stocks last week that I wish I hadn't.
 I didn't stick with my "rule" - conservative.
 I'll dump those 2 as soon as I B/E.

 I know I've brought this up before and been ignored, but I'll tell you what makes me nervous ...
 WHY is SHW over $400?
 WHO buys SHW paint?
 Everybody I know goes to HD for paint.

 BTW, I will also share this ....
 According to "a source", something "big" is supposed to happen in February causing a market drop.
 Another reason Y I'm staying "conservative".
 Of course, I'll admit,  I've cried wolf on these boards many times, so, .. whatever.

 historically it's a poor performer between 5th and 26th of Feb
 We would have to see the VIX above 16 cuz bears need volatility to survive.

 Regarding Karen's source and something big in February.
 
 I have some military family friends who are suggesting that there is a big call out to staff up a February deployment.  All of the details are secret, of course (well....nobody's telling me anyway), but one might extrapolate at a ramping up on the war front.

 Trump said he's send more troops to Afghanistan, I believe they have about 14000 soldiers deployed there. That war has being going on forever it seems.

 @ JP,
 "FB rips to all time high on earnings beat, but slight miss on user growth."
 ====================
 The headline could've said the opposite:
 "FB drops on slight miss on user growth".
 
 BTW, HOW does FB make money?
