Due to the tremendous response from investors, we are transferring to a more powerful server. Please alert us if you encounter anything unusual. There are bound to be a few teething problems but the move should solve the slow registrations and logins encountered over the past week.
 




Conclusion
The US market is entering an uncertain period. Tighten up your stops on existing long positions and avoid new entries.
Long-term trades: Wait for a correction on the secondary cycle.
