* Tracking the Market's Strength - My update to the Trading Psychology Weblog summarizes the indicator data, including money flows, and finds that the recent rally has not been impressive to date.
* Estimating the Coming Day's Volatility - My recent post has generated some emails and questions. I illustrate how I use the VIX and volume data to estimate the day's volatility (size of the high-low price range) in my latest entry to the Trader Performance page.
* Predicting Market Turning Points? - Check out this video unmasking a common guru ploy; thanks to Kevin's Market Blog for the link. Also note interesting posts from Kevin on a bullish pattern in the Dow and how gold stocks are outperforming the metal.
* Red Flags for the Market - CPP Trader notes some worrisome aspects of the recent market, including the poor response to good news. See also CPP's worthwhile observations on buying when the Dow is down.
* An Options Strategy With a Stock Picking Idea - Check out Adam Warner's post on how he's using options to trade the strength in UA. Very nice illustration of participating to the upside and hedging the downside. Plus, hey, you get his music commentary to boot!
* Frontier Markets - Valuable ideas from Random Roger and a nice illustration of how the pros search for alpha.
* Picking Apart the Employment Data - Great analytical post from A Dash of Insight finds strength in the economy and outlines the data to focus on going forward. Here's a skeptical look at the data from The Big Picture and an even more skeptical look from Mish.

Interesting that Kazakhstan is closely watched for its rich resources.
I have been fortunate to know the country and her well educated people, through their Embassy.
Yes, it is truly some country to watch down the road.
Dr. Steenbarger,
First, just wanted to say, enjoy your blog greatly and I hope you are recovering from your illness not to long ago. Could you tell me (or anyone else), what software you us to track the IntraDay TICK/TRIN. . I use QuoteTracker, and have the TICK/TRIN configured, but according to QuoteTracker, TD Ameritrade doesn't support it and thus I can not track it. . This is very frustrating, since I know how important this indicator is. .I can click on a "Watch List" in TD Ameritrade, but can't track it with a chart or streamer. .
Thank you in advance.
