i do not wish to average down until the company management proves that it is worthwhile to do so. the texas wind farm is chugging along albeit slowly due to politics.

they recently signed a moe with steel workers union to purchase us steel for their spanking new factory and wind turbine facility in nevada. it must be a curious case for the chinese to navigate thru workers union as they do not have such thing in china. glad that went thru the right channels and things panned out for the better.

im just waiting for the whole deal to be on white n black. once that is signed i am a relieved investor!

This is TLT; Barclay’s 20 year bond index

Will you short, or long?

The chart seems to suggest ‘exhaustion’ with price level gapping up and down over the past 1 month.

It is currently trading closer to the support level for the gap. And I think it can easily just drop below the support and crashed down.

Trading Alert: It's Time to Buy Some Insurance By Jeff Clark

Here's something for the bulls to worry about…

This is a chart of the Volatility Index (VIX). The VIX is often used as a measure of fear or complacency in the stock market. As the VIX rises, it indicates increasing fear and nervousness among investors. A falling VIX indicates investors are growing more comfortable with the stock market.

The blue lines on the chart are Bollinger Bands. Bollinger Bands compare volatility and relative price levels over time. They attempt to illustrate the maximum probable range of prices for a stock or an index. If you plot a chart of any stock against its Bollinger Bands, you'll find the stock stays within the bands the vast majority of the time. It is rare for a stock to close outside the bands. When that does happen, it indicates an extreme condition.

As you can see from the above chart, the VIX closed Friday below its lower Bollinger Band. In other words, the VIX – the market's best measure of investor fear – is extremely oversold. Investors are too complacent.

Really?

Talk about a head-scratcher. Just last week, everybody was worried about the potential for a stock market crash. The American Association of Individual Investors reported its highest percentage of bearish respondents since March 2009. And now the VIX is oversold?

Could it be that while everyone seems to expect the market to crash, nobody is afraid of it happening? Or has the 5% rally over the past three trading days been enough for investors to gain confidence in the market once again?

Who knows?

All I know is that whenever the VIX closes below its lower Bollinger Band, the stock market makes an important intermediate-term top within days.

Take another look at that chart of the VIX. Then, take a look at this chart of the S&P 500…

The circles on the S&P chart correspond to the circles on the VIX chart. They indicate the days when the VIX closed below its lower Bollinger Band. Notice how the stock market peaked shortly afterward… and was followed by a rather dramatic decline.

Will the same thing happen this time? Who knows? Nothing is guaranteed. But since the rally over the past few days has eliminated the market's oversold condition, spanked the overly aggressive bears out of position, and is now bumping into resistance, it's probably a good idea to buy some insurance.

After all, with the Volatility Index oversold, put options are cheap.

GH,

Are you averaging down?

Looks like APWR rebounced quite a fair bit in this week.

I am considering to buy in another lot at right time, and market conditions.
