Starting next week, I am going to revive an old pratice of mine that came to be known as “M5.”  That stands for “Mentor Mike’s Monday Morning Mentoring Moments.”  These are short, mini-lessons in various aspects of technical analysis and/or money management.  I will begin with some previews from my next Ninja Trader webinar currently scheduled for November 4th.  Its working title is “TECHNICAL ANALYSIS: what it is, how it works, and why it is indispensable to good trading.”

Today’s ES reveals a LO-HI-LO configuration skewed toward the beginning of the NYSE day session.

I knocked off early today to catch a bargain matinee of the latest summer blockbuster in 3d: CONAN THE BARBARIAN.  I read these pulp fiction stories by Robert E. Howard when I was in college and grew fond of that character.  As a retired trial lawyer, there is a certain fantasy appeal to settling disputes with swords and sorcery instead of with piles of paper shuffled by rubber-stamp-wielding bureaucrats.  Have a great weekend.  Be back next week.
