...Important features of stock chart analysis Overall Trend: The first step is to identify the overall trend. This can be accomplished with trend lines, moving averages or peak/trough analysis. As long as the price remains above its uptrend line, selected moving averages or previous lows, the trend will be considered bullish. Support: Areas of congestion or previous lows below the current price mark support levels. A break below support would be considered bearish. Resistance: Areas of congestion and previous highs above the current price mark the resistance levels. A break above resistance would be considered bullish. Momentum: Momentum is usually measured with an oscillator such as MACD. If MACD is above its 9-day EMA (exponential moving average) or positive, then momentum will be considered bullish, or at least improving. Buying/Selling Pressure: For stocks and indices with volume figures available, an indicator that uses volume is used to measure buying or selling pressure. When Chaikin Money Flow is above zero, buying pressure is dominant. Selling pressure is dominant when it is below zero. Relative Strength: The price relative is a line formed by dividing the security by a benchmark. For stocks it is usually the price of the stock divided by the S&P 500. The plot of this line over a period of time will tell us if the stock is outperforming (rising) or under performing (falling) the major index. The final step is to synthesize the above analysis to ascertain the following: ...

...MOVIE ANALYSIS THREE IDIOTS Entertaining, funny, tearjerker, inspirational, mind-boggling, intriguing, realistic, name it - anything you would want from a great movie, Three Idiots definitely got it all. The movie basically features the lives of three college students during and after college and how the educational system works in India. I would like to share my point of view or analysis of the film based on some of the remarkable lines from the movie itself: 1. "And this is a college, not a pressure cooker. The lion in a circus learns that he needs to sit on the chair if his owner has a whip in his hand. But that lion is called well-trained, not well-educated." - Rancho - True enough, this describes how much pressure, every college student has to deal with in order to meet their professors' high standards and accustomed school curriculum. The essence and joy of learning are being overlooked coz the students tend to be too bookish, go with the flow, say yes to everything the teacher has to say to make sure they get high or passing grades. To me, grades are just numbers and should never define one's knowledge and abilities. 2. "Make your passion your profession. So it will not be work but play." - Rancho - It's your life, your choice. Never let anyone dictate you on what you're going to do with your life coz we only got one. Most especially in choosing a course or career you'd want to take. Yes, you might wanna consult your parents and ask their opinion but...

...Adam Smith BY124L Case Study November 19th, 2014 Analysis of “The Hot Tub Mystery” Part I 1. The paramedics found empty wine bottles on the ledge surrounding the hot tub, and the bodies of Roma and Clint Underhill on the bottom of the hot tub. The water of the hot tub seemed way too hot and the Underhill’s had both been dead for a while when the paramedics arrived. 2. The maid should be asked the following questions about the situation: Is the water usually this hot? If so, what temperature? When did you arrive at the home? When did you discover the bodies? Were the Underhill’s taking any medications? 3. Clint Underhill had taken a medicine called Lasix directly before he went into the hot tub. The Underhill’s were drinking wine in the hot tub and the tub seemed very hot to the paramedics. 4. Lasix, also called furosemide, is a water pill, used to reduce the swelling and fluid retention that can be caused by various medical problems such as heart or liver disease, and it is also used to treat high blood pressure. It causes the kidneys to get rid of unneeded water and salt from the body into the urine. Lasix can make the person taking it very dehydrated, so it is important to try staying hydrated. In addition, drinking too much alcohol affects many parts of the body. It can be especially harmful to the liver, the organ that metabolizes (breaks down) alcohol and other harmful substances. Alcohol not broken down by the liver goes to the rest of the body,...

...Hank Kolb, Director, Quality Assurance case study examines a manufacturing industrial plant that employs 1,200 people. Hank Kolb was the newly hired director, quality assurance. Kolb was warned by the general manager, Morganthal, about the “lack of a quality attitude” in the plant, and told Kolb that he “should try and do something about this.” Hank Kolb left a very good job to accept this position because he wanted a challenge and thought this company was serious about the importance of quality (Leonard, 1993). Before examining the quality (or lack thereof) within the different layers of the manufacturing plant procedures I feel it would be beneficial to layout each employee and their main roles / steps in the communication and production process. The following is the list of employees discussed within the case study: • Hank Kolb: Director, Quality Assurance • Mark Hamler: Kolb’s immediate subordinate as the quality control manager (Hamler’s evaluation form stated “superb technical knowledge; managerial skills lacking.”) • Mac Evans: Inspector of the line for Greasex • Wayne Simmons: First-line supervisor • Morganthal: General Manager (Morganthal warned Kolb, “lack of a quality attitude” and told him “should try and do something about this.” He also expressed his concern for the plant, “We have to improve our quality, it’s costing us a lot of money, I’m sure of it, but I can’t prove it! Hank, you have my full support in this matter; you’re in charge of these quality...

...Throughout the class I have learned many things about nutrition that I did not know about my own health. The assignments on the diet analysis, obesity, and healthy eating plan helped me learn the most about my nutrition and what I can do to improve it. The assignment that I enjoyed the most was the three-day diet analysis for both week one and week six. These assignments helped me see what I was consuming too much of and what I was not consuming enough of. I found out that I was consuming too much of the mineral sodium, which in my family leads to high blood pressure. I also found out that I am not consuming near enough fruits and vegetables. Both weeks I was hardly eating any fruit at all. Since I have been consuming more fruits and vegetables I find that I am less hungry throughout the day. The discussion question topic that interested me the most was the second discussion question in week six about obesity. We had to visit the American Obesity Awareness website and answer the question of what we learned about obesity from that site that we did not know before. I was completely unaware that obesity can cause cancer. I was amazed at that fact. I was also amazed of the fact that 200 million Americans are either considered obese or overweight, that is a lot of people. The assignment that affected me the most in terms of overall health and nutrition was the healthy eating plan assignment from week one. This assignment helped me see what foods I was missing from my diet and...

...Guadeloupe 41 km north and Martinique 40 km south. It relates to evaluate the potential of Wotten Waven geothermal field (initially presented with a capacity of 120 MWe in 2012 before the three exploration wells and 90 MWe in 2013) and estimate if it can provide enough energy for electricity production not only for home market but also for export to Guadeloupe and / or Martinique.This geothermal field is located in the southern part of the Dominica island approximately at ten kilometers east of Roseau, in an area known for its geothermal surface manifestations including mineralized hot springs, fumaroles, sulfur deposits and phreatic explosion craters (whose "Boiling Lake", one of the largest known in the world). The main conclusions of the analysis and integration of data provided in data room, but also from additional bibliographic research carried out in support, are the following: Geological context and conceptual model of the geothermal system Three exploration wells (WW-01 to 03) were drilled in 2012 at depths of 1200 to 1600 m. They helped prove the existence of a deep geothermal reservoir and provide important information on its thickness, its temperature and permeability (injectivity-productivity). * Temperatures measured on wells indicate that the heat generating Wotten Waven geothermalisme is likely related to a magma chamber located under the Micotrin volcano who last erupted about 27 000 years ago. * The geothermal reservoir is composed of...

...The Pressures of Family Living up to family expectations and obligations can be hard and take a toll on anyone. They may be pushed on you by other people or you might have put them on yourself. Disappointing the ones you love has a big impact on one’s self esteem and can possibly lead to self-destruction. I believe this was exactly the case in “The Red Convertible”. Before Henry goes off to war he is full of life and seems very happy without a care in the world. He and his brother have a close relationship and spend a lot of time together doing things. After Henry returns from war he is a very different person than the one that left. The spark of life had left him and he was an empty shell. The final scene of this story was heart-wrenching. As Henry and Lyman sat watching the river flow you could see Henry was struggling with his inner demons. Lyman tries to pull Henry out of his depression but Henry says he can’t. I believe Henry is feeling too much pressure to return to his old self. I think he wants to but doesn’t know how to get back to that person. The family doesn’t understand and seems to expect the same Henry to return as the one who left. No one knows what he has been through or what the enemy did to him when he was caught. Henry knew he was letting his family down and hurting them by his actions. He didn’t want to disappoint them any longer and made a drastic decision. Henry was tired of hurting his family and did his best to become his old self long enough...

...1950. When the store became successful he wanted to go bigger which prompted him to open the first Walmart in 1962 in Rogers, Arkansas. Walton wanted to have a store which offered low prices and still quality products. A lot of people doubted him and didn’t think he’d be too successful. They thought his low prices wouldn’t gain him enough profit to stay afloat. By 1967, only 5 years after opening the first Wal-mart, Walton owned 24 stores. The company went public in 1970 and by 1988 it was the most profitable retailer in the US. In March of 1992 Walton was awarded with the Presidential Medal of freedom by President George H. W. Bush. The Presidential Medal of Freedom is the highest civilian award of the United States and it recognizes “exceptional meritorious service.” (infoplease.com) Not even a full month afterwards, Walton passed away on April 5, 1992 of cancer. His oldest son then took over as chairman of the the corporate board of directors. In 2000 Wal-mart.com was founded for US Customers to be able to buy products online. Wal-mart now operates stores in all 50 US States and Puerto Rico. Walmart now has Supercenters, discount stores and neighborhood markets which all vary in size. When finding out so much information about Sam Walton and the history of Walmart I came across some interesting info specifically from reclaimdemocracy.org. It says, “The quest for low prices came naturally to Walton: He was freakishly cheap. Although he was ranked as the richest man in the United...

These chemicals give people more energy and strength, which can be a good thing if their stress is caused by physical danger.
