AAPL and momentum
Posted by: FSM
AAPL and momentum - 02/20/08 06:33 AM
most stocks tend to move in trends. there's a chart that measures this momentum called the MACD. if you look at AAPL over the past year and past 3 months you can see the trends in momentum:<br><br><br><br><br><br>actually, AAPL has very little momentum below the red line so they aren't a good stock for this MACD (i even mislabeled when to buy in the chart above because i was just looking at the 3 month rather than the whole year chart). but right now, AAPL is in it's down trend . . . presumably it will head up soon; although, it had UP UP UP for so long that it's hard to tell. i am reading a new book on short term stock trading. the book is trying to make things safer (also reduces the potentially for a big gain). they recommend waiting until the momentum hits the the middle in this chart, so not buying now is what they'd suggest even though the stock is priced so low (perhaps now is the time for long term traders though). so i'd be buying at a little higher rate and selling probably a little lower than i could make, but i'd be playing the momentum trends and i'll typically gain in this model over the shorter term (though, Poly and others will hate me). many people use this MACD for selling short (so they can make money when the stock drops in price, for example). my book explains that, but i don't understand it enough to trade that way yet . . . plus, it's apparently not very accurate so i likely won't do that.<br><br>i am far from using this for trading (maybe 6 months or so of playing with paper money), but i think it's interesting to see how these momentum swings work even if i was just using it for simple straight forward short term trading (e.g., 1 day to a few months). here's more info on MACD -- http://www.streetauthority.com/terms/macd.asp<br><br>

Study: Many Could Face Obstacles In Voter ID Laws
A new report finds that millions of potential voters in states that require photo ID at the polls live more than 10 miles from the office that issue IDs. Nearly half a million of these people don't have access to a car or other vehicle. With the new requirements, "it certainly looks and feels like a poll tax," says one voter advocate.
Social Fortress cofounder Adam Ghetti wants to protect us all from our social-media-loving selves.
His company, which launched at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference today in San Francisco, makes it so that no matter how you communicate—Facebook, Gmail, Google+, or Twitter—your stuff can never be seen by anyone but the intended recipients.
Communications are encrypted so electronic eavesdroppers just see a bunch of bits. There's a key difference between virtual private networks and other security tools: If you send a Facebook message, the copy stored on Facebook's servers will be encrypted, too, and even Facebook can't decode it.
The company says that it is targeting both enterprises and consumers and is free for consumers to use. There is a catch: Your friends and family have to install a viewer to read your encrypted messages—similar to the way Adobe Acrobat works.
It's unlikely to become very popular with consumers because of that.
But it's true potential is with the enterprise. Businesses can install it on all the devices employees use and then never need worry that an employee will be snooped on.
In June, Social Fortress raised $2 million from Sig Mosley, an Atlanta-based venture capitalist, and other investors.
Ghetti said that it is already being tested by several large, security-conscious enterprises.
It's an interesting concept. Services that allow us to protect and control our own data is something the average person just might want, if a startup can make it painless to use.
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Harmoni Sandlin knows so much about her
husband — that he likes licorice tea, for example, and mango
She's comfortable enough to chat with him on her cellphone while
she's using the restroom (sometimes she tells him; sometimes not).
During the day, odd little occurrences remind her of him, and she
makes a mental note of them. Thinks, I've got to share this with
For his part, Tim Sandor knows much about his wife. He knows the
faces she makes when she slips into photo booths. He knows her affinity
for wordplay, indie bands and macaroni and cheese. He knows she's
drug-free, a teetotaler, spiritual but not religious.
Sadly, he knows that if he were to climb into his car and drive to
her, it would take 37 hours.
Harmoni lives in Las Vegas, and Tim lives in West Palm Beach. They
first met 2 1/2 months ago in an online debate room. Now, they
communicate in some way every day. They may e-mail, chat over the phone
or exchange music and photographs. They've even talked about creating a
calendar together (her poses would include a dominatrix-type shot of
her in a Catholic school uniform, another perhaps as a cheerleader;
he'd pose as a priest, he says, and a gritty farmer sitting on a
They're at that point in their relationship where they've got pet
names for one another — he's her Analog and she's his Apron —
and yet they've never met face-to-face.
Theirs is a fictional union, a digital farce.
One online personality
"wedding" another. There is no legal backing behind their union, no
long-term commitment, no signed marriage certificate, no tax benefit to
reap or prenup to deal with.
Just a guy who likes an online girl and a girl who likes an online
Together, they're exploring what could be the latest frontier in
relationships: online marriage.
The unions are increasingly common, thanks to highly interactive
online games (i.e. World of Warcraft), social-networking sites (like
MySpace.com) and virtual worlds (such as SecondLife.com). One
Beijing-based publication estimates there are 100,000 online married in
China, a country where the practice seems to be mushrooming.
"They're not looking for monogamy or any kind of serious deal," say
online dating gurus Jamie Kiffel ("Miss Gemini") and Larisa Fuchs
("Miss Scorpio") of geminiandscorpio.com. "They want a chance to lay
claim to someone they found online without any of the real-life,
dirty-sock-and-underwear-on-the-floor problems that real relationships
Most virtual spouses fall into the under-18 set. Among adults, the
unions go a step beyond chat room friends, e-mail acquaintances and
instant messenger buddies. They range from farcical, spur-of-the-moment
unions (a role-playing dwarf in San Francisco might marry an orc from
Miami in World of Warcraft, for instance), to long-lasting, substantive
Or, as in the case of Tim and Harmoni, two Gen-Xers might genuinely
identify with one another, get "married" on a whim, and, whether they
intended to or not, end up experiencing real feelings — like
tension, bliss, passion and longing.
"A part of me realizes that this whole thing is just ridiculous, but
I'm so fascinated with it," he says. "I'm very much attracted to this
girl, and I'm fascinated by that attraction. Whether or not there's a
point . . . I can't really speak to the long term for that because I
don't know. I can't see that far ahead. But as for right now, it's
like, I'm happy with things as they are."
There's no doubt that Tim and Harmoni have a meaningful
relationship, but their interactions raise questions: Are they wasting
their time in a fantasyland? Are they afraid of real-world
interactions? Why invest so much time in something that promises no
physical intimacy?
They didn't get into a relationship expecting romance, and they've
deconstructed their behavior every step of the way. That's partly what
attracts him to Harmoni, he says, her ability to step outside of
herself and analyze what they're doing.
"We're both into sociology and well-versed enough in human
interactions to know that there's definitely a lot of unreality to the
whole virtual community," Tim says.
Their development of feelings for one another, that just sort of
happened. It's a new form of love, perhaps, in a digital age. Call it
binaric swooning, cyber enchantment, avatar amore. Whatever it is, the
two are ready to take it a step further, toward reality.

Idiosyncrasies of Psalm 90
Characteristic of Ives' style, this piece is rich with tonal clusters, rhythmic complexities, and layers of dense harmonies and polyphonic material. Another outstanding characteristic of this piece is the vivid text declamation, or text painting that the music endeavors. The musical line clearly evokes the tone and message of the text.
