likesmoney!...Hi...it's the zigzagman...

I didn't know you were over here on this forum...It's nice to see an old friend here to talk to...

BTW...What happened to the Finviz forum?...It's gone!...That's sad to see...We had a good crowd over there...Are there any other members from that forum that moved over here too?...

Are you still doing the end of the week chart analysis of the Dow and/or S&P 500 over here?...If you are, what thread do you post it on?...

likesmoney,

Thanks! for the kind words, and the link to your weekly look at the Dow...I look forward to seeing what you have to say about the markets at the end of each week/month...

I plan to start doing my analysis again using videos at the beginning of next year, but this time I'll be doing it on the S&P 500 and also for the Nasdaq...

I've bookmarked the link to your thread, and will look at each new one...This forum appears to be a good one...Much more active than the Finviz one...I wish they hadn't closed that one down though...There were many good people there, and I'll miss them...And there were a number of educational posts I made there that I could've brought over here, but now they're gone forever...Oh well...

See you around my friend...
