MidCaps Set Up Short After Perfect Q1 Long

Added on April 30, 2016 by C. Maoxian.

Weekly squiggle analysis ... flipping through the charts I see a lot of shorts (and only one long -- the bonds). MidCap 400 (MDY) set up long at the end of January (now he tells us!) and has been in the minimum C target zone for the last several weeks. My chicken entrail reading may be screwy because of that August Flash Crash low, so take the voodoo with a grain of salt.

Billions -- Season One

Added on April 30, 2016 by C. Maoxian.

My buddy @StockJockey told me about this TV show, which I otherwise never would have heard of, probably ... it was kind of fun, kind of dumb ... it wasn't bad TV. Anyway, I sent StockJockey a screenshot after every episode I watched along with my comments (probably to his annoyance) ... here is the complete first season:

"go to Settings -> Music and enable/disable Apple Music. Now restart your iOS device" ... Music frozen on brand new iPhone, a bad sign?

OK, it took some detective work, but it was @jamesahudson who recently quit Twitter. I am sorry to see him go.

Someone I follow recently quit Twitter, but I don't know who it is. Is there a tool I can use to see recently deleted Twitter accounts?

Twitter should replace the Moments icon on the Twitter for iPhone app with a Lists icon, would be two taps to access instead of four.
— C. Maoxian (@maoxian) April 20, 2016

Any easier way 2 access your lists using the Twitter app for iPhone than tapping Me > gear icon > View lists? A pain compared with TweetBot.

Save Me For a Rainy Day

Spotify has suggested this song to me week after week and it has finally grown on me. I like her voice. Reminds me of the first time I heard Madeleine Peyroux channeling Billie Holiday. Kat is like Twiggy meets Blossom Dearie?
