... and i like what i see, too. price and the 50 dma have been dancing the tango (hopefully not the last "tango in paris", since i am loaded long equities!), not getting too far away from each other for the last week or so. the first poke above was rejected, setting up a bit of a drama, a required drama, don't you think? my guess is that we get back above that 50 dma and stay above long enough to have the fast money momentum long/short funds start pushing in their sideline money. i don't have anything of real consequence on my date radar until 1/23/09-1/26/09. another date has shown up, the nearby 2/10/09. i am looking for a possible double top into those dates maybe in the spx 1095 area. if something like that occurs, a very profitable swing trade short might be set-up.

FM: thanks for the comment and peace to you, too. the andrews pitchforks are fascinating and worthwhile. thanks for the update; i tend to forget about them. you remind me that i need to get in touch with the big one on the daily chart going back to 3/24/00 and further, too. H1

I'm just a novice here, aspiring to become a swing trader. Could any of you guide me in the selection of a good intraday stock screener, as I've been reading that in order to trade effectively as a swing trader I will need to have ready access to some kind of intraday stock screener. I'm not well off enough to be able to pay top dollar for such, but I can affort up to $100 per month. Thank you in advance for your guidance.
