Technical Indicators – Williams %R Indicator

December 31, 2010

There are some technical indicators I use every day.  The Williams %R is one of them.  I’ve modified the base period to fit the stock (ETF) that I follow and the ;  that being the Q’s (symbol: QQQQ).  One more modification that I’ve made is that rather than just using the -20% and -80% as breaking points I also use the middle line of -50% coupled with different time periods to indicate direction and momentum.  Since the base period varies for every individual stock I’ll let you figure out what base period I use for the Q’s.  As a clue, I call it WD50.

Alice – Your Personal Shopping Assistant

July 15, 2009

Don’t have the time to “shop”?  Still want to save money?  Check this out.  Found on one of my favorite sites to follow for all sorts of stuff, MakeUseOf.com. 

I used to have a OK time stocking my little bachelor pad. But after I got married and had a baby, it isn’t always that easy keeping all your items, your significant other’s items as well as the little one’s diapers and food stocked on your shelves. I hear some of you guys snickering and saying, “Isn’t that what you have a wife for?”
