Thank you for your support. My daughter was also 19 weeks pregnant when diagnosed, they both had to undergo chemo and little Matthew was taken at 32 weeks without an immune system and monthly infusions of gamma globulin (sic). His immune system has now kicked in and despite close monitoring "V" is doing much better and still being monitored closely.

Despite it being a rare form of lymphoma, the treatment responded to standard Hodgkinsons treatment.

As for Red 5, I suspect another groundhog day today. Some of the mid sized US banks are due to report. This may have big implications on the POG. Retail sales earlier in the week suggested inflation but I note that last night jobless claims cam in even and in the consensus range. Seems the rest the general market and gold is here for a little while.

I would like some of the TA people here to offer their thoughts on if the rest means POG, DJI, NAS and IWM will continue on the downward trend of Lower Highs and Lower Lows when/if it breaks out of if this is a support line to bounce off to climb again?

I know sometimes I get caught up with the macro picture but despite local excitement around the "merger of equals", I feel terms are still dictated by the big picture. To that end, I still have a few shackles in the war chest ready for a major correction.
