.In this lecture, we will discuss decidability. Already, we have introduced Turing machine as a model of general purpose computer. The notion of algorithm has also been defined in terms of Turing machine by means of search Turing thesis. We will now see that some problems can be solved algorithmically while others cannot. So, it gives us the limits of algorithmic solvability. In decidability, we will consider some example of languages that are decidable by algorithms. That is, there are Turing machines to decide those languages. Of course, while giving Turing machines as algorithms, that means, decider Turing machines, rather than spelling out the full specification of Turing machines, that means the states, transition functions, etcetera, we provide only a high level description, where we use English prose to describe an algorithm, ignoring the implementation details. That means, we do not mention how the Turing machine manages step or head. We now consider some example languages that are decidable. We consider languages to represent various computational problems, just for our convenience. So, first we see problems from regular languages itself. So, first let us consider membership problem for regular languages. So, the problem is that given a string x belonging to sigma star for some sigma and a regular language L over that alphabet, whether or not the string x belongs to L. So, there is a problem. So, this problem, the corresponding language for this problem can be stated as M R L, which is the set of all strings like this. So, A x such that A is a DFA and x belongs to L of A. So, why we are switching here A to B DFA? Because since we want to see whether x belongs to L or not, we need to give an algorithm. That means we need to design Turing machine to decide this problem. Now, we have to give a description of the language to the Turing machine. How to describe this language? How this description of the language should be given to the Turing machine as input is the main problem? Because language may be infinite. So, we need to have some finite presentation of the language, so that we can give it as an input. So, there are different kinds of finite interpretations. For example, so we have a regular expression. By using regular expression, we can give or represent the any language or we can also use a finite automata, for example, say DFA to describe the language. So, here we will consider finite automata to describe the language. So, therefore, this A x, this is the string where A is the encoding of the DFA and x is a string. So, the problem is the language of problem is the set of all strings like this A x in encoding such that A is a DFA and x belongs to L of A. Now, since you have said that we need to give an encoding of A, that means the DFA, we first consider how to encode a given DFA. Let us see the encoding of DFA or coding of a DFA. So, if A is a DFA, then corresponding encoding will be written as A within angular bracket. So, that is why we have written here in the language as A x within angular bracket. So, these are encoding. Consider, for example, this DFA where we have two states q 1 and q 2 and the inputs are from the alphabet 0 1. So, these are corresponding transition function delta. It has only one, it has single one initial state q 1 and only one final state that is q 2. From the transition function, we all the transition function can be represented as triplets say first one q 1 on input 0 it goes to q 1. So, we represent like this q 1 0 q 1. Second one is that q 1 on 1 goes to q 2. So, q 1 1 q 2 like that we can also represent the other two transitions.  So, to start with the left bracket we represent using three zeros and then since a finite number of states will be using say if we have q 1 q 2 up to say q k. We use a sequence of ones to represent the states. That means, 1 to the power i will be represented will be used to represent the state q i. Similarly, to represent the symbol from the alphabet again we use sequence of ones only. For example, say a 1 a 2 say a m these are symbols from the alphabet then we will be using 1 to the power i to represent the symbol a i. Therefore, we can now encode every transition like this. So, after three zeros we denote the left bracket. So, q 1 will be denoted as 1 to the power i that means 1. Now, next we will use 0 as a separator after using 0 here as separator. We use single symbol say 1 3 power i only 1 to denote 0 and then again 0 as a separator then 1 to represent q 1. So, 1 0 1 0 1 this is the code for a corresponding transition q 1 0 q 1 then this transition will be separated from the other transitions by 2 0 over here and then for this transition q 1 will be written as by 1 separate by 0 then this symbol 1 will be written by 2 ones because there are 2 symbols 0 and 1 0 will be written by 1 and 1 will be written by 1 1 and then q 2 will be written by 2 ones 1 3 power 2 because there are 2 states q 1 and q 2 for q 1 we have single 1 and for q 2 we have 2 ones. So, this is the code for this particular transition. Next it will be separate by again 2 zeros and this is the code accordingly for this transition 2 zeros again to separate and this will be the code for the corresponding transition over here. Then again we will use 3 zeros to indicate that we have no more transitions over here all the transitions have been encoded and then we indicate the set of final states after this. So, since q 2 is the final states so we use 2 ones according to our notations for q 2 we have 2 ones and then we use 3 zeros to indicate that there is no more final states over here. So, this is the encoding for the DFA. So, in general if we have a DFA having final numbers of states q 1 through q 1 q n final numbers of symbols a 1 through say m delta is a transition function q 1 is the initial state and the set of final states over here q i 1 q i 2 up to q i k. What we do is that q i will be written by 1 3 power i this string and a i will be written by 1 3 power i these strings and if t 1 t 2 t r are the transitions then the DFA a is dependent by 3 zeros the coding code of t 1 2 0 then the code of t 2 again 2 0 the code of t 3 and so on up to the code of t r the r f transition then 3 zeros to indicate that there is no more transition and then 1 3 power i 1 to indicate that these are final state q i 1 is the final state 0 1 3 power i 2 q i 2 is the final state and so on up to q i k to indicate that q i k q i 1 q i 2 up to q i k these are the final states and eventually 3 zeros to indicate the end. So, that is how we represent or encode any given DFA so once we have encoded what we do we use a Turing machine so this encoding of a along with after the encoding what we have say this is the encoding of a we had 0 0 0 t 1 0 0 and so on 0 0 t r 0 0 0 1 to the power i 1 0 1 to the power i 2 0 up to your 1 to the power i k 0 0 0 and after this we after this we place the string x whatever it may be so it is again a sequence of 0's and 1's 0 1 or whatever is sequence of 0's and 1's so this overall will give us the string a x so therefore that is how we give the input to the Turing machine so we consider for simulation we consider a 4 tap Turing machine on the first step we place the string encoding of Turing machine along with the string that means encoding of a and x together where dollar is a first symbol on the second tap we put so initially the what a Turing machine can do it can look for the first group of 3 0's second group of 3 0's and finally last group of 3 0's once it gets the last group of 3 0's the third group of 3 0's it knows that there is no more final sets and whatever is there after this will be the string x so once it can identify the string x it can copy that string x from the first step to the second step so in a number of steps the Turing machine can copy the second component that means the string to the second step now in the fourth step the Turing machine again can find out or identify all the final steps of the DFA and it can copy on a third step the final steps of the DFA and the third step will be considered as a current tap or that means a tap which is used for simulation of the Turing machine now will give the algorithm for a model to do that we need to know how the Turing machine will simulate the behavior of the DFA and it will say yes whenever the DFA eventually accepts the string x and it will say no whenever the DFA does not accept the string x so the Turing machine will first see put the initial step that means the 1 because key 1 is the initial step that is why it will put 1 in the third step in the simulation step then looking at the symbol the first symbol of x so it is it knows that it is in state current state is key 1 it will first see what is the current state current symbol from the second step therefore from the first step which is a encoding Turing machine which contains the transitions of the DFA it will see what is your key 1 with the first symbol of x suppose say 0 it will see was a third component in that transition in the transition which is available in the first step accordingly if it is key 1 it will print 1 over here in the third step otherwise if you say it is key 2 then it will print 2 ones over here on the third step to indicate that the DFA has changed its state to key 2 according to transition function given on the first step in the encoding so this will be continued in this way looking at the symbols of second step the current state in the third step will any transition matching the current state and the current symbol it will keep on changing the state in the third step so eventually whenever the input string is exhausted then the Turing machine check the content of the third step so it will indicate what is the current state if that current state you will see whether it is a final state from the fourth step whether that state belong is a state which is there in the third step or fourth step or not if it is it knows that the input is exhausted and it has entered in a final state so therefore the DFA should accept otherwise the DFA will reject just given string x so that is how the Turing machine will simulate the behavior DFA using a fourth step Turing machine so once you know how it goes you can now give the algorithm for the language MRL so in this case the input is of this form AX where A is a DFA and X is the input to the DFA A so AX is the encoding is given to the Turing machine so Turing machine either output yes or no so if it outputs yes that means the DFA A accepts the string x if it outputs no it means that the DFA A rejects the string x so in step 1 it will simulate the DFA A on input x so it is now quite clear how the DFA how the Turing machine will simulate the DFA A on input x using a fourth step using its four steps in step 2 the simulation ends in a final state then the DFA will say yes otherwise it will say that no so this is the algorithm for MRL so therefore MRL is decidable that means the membership problem of regular language is decidable now let us see the emptiness problem of regular language so in this case the problem is that given a regular language L whether or not L is empty so the corresponding language for this problem is that ERL which is set of all strings A where A is a DFA and this is an encoding of the DFA and L is 5 that means it does not accept any string so for this now would not give the Turing machine specifically all the states and like that but simply will give the algorithm so in this case the input is DFA A which is having the state q input symbol sigma delta is a function q notice the initial state and F is a set of states so it is a DFA is an input and output is again yes or no depending on whether L of A is 5 or L of A is not 5 in the first step what a Turing machine can do it will mark the initial state of the DFA so there is single initial state it will mark the state in step 2 the Turing machine will repeat step 3 until no new state gets marked so step 3 is that if a state p is already marked suppose p is already a marked state then if delta p A equal to q so this can be determined from the first step where the description of the or the encoding of the DFA is available if delta p A is equal to q then it will also mark q because p is already marked on some symbol it goes to q then it will mark q as well so this step will be continued until no more no new states gets marked so eventually when it comes out from step 3 if no final state is marked it means that the DFA cannot enter in any of the final states in such a case it will say yes that means it will not accept any string otherwise it will say no that means the DFA accepts some string that means the language of the DFA is not empty now there is an alternative way to solve the same problem that means to decide the same problem that means the emptiness problem the alternative way we can prove it by means of these two theorems or constructed from these theorems suppose there is DFA A with n states and L is the language except by the DFA now we can prove that L is not equal to phi if and only if A accepts a string of length less than n so this we have kept it kept as exercise you can prove it easily by using pumping lemma already pumping lemma for regular language have been discussed and you can apply that pumping lemma for regular languages to prove that L is not empty if and only if the DFA accepts some string of length less than n similarly the second theorem says that L is infinite if and only if A accepts a string x whose length is greater than or equal to n or less than twice n or n is a number of states of course so we can use the first theorem to prove that or to decide whether the language of a DFA is empty or not that means emptiness of regular languages whether it is decidable or not so in this case the Turing machine basically can list out all the strings of length less than n so there are finite numbers of strings like that of length at most n and all these strings can be generated on the on one type of a Turing machine and then the Turing machine can simulate the DFA on that string so it will continue to generate the strings of length up to n and then test it or run the simulation or simulate the behavior of the DFA whether it accepts or not so eventually if the DFA accepts any string of length at most n or less than n then it can determine it can decide that it can output that L not equal to empty otherwise it is empty so similarly since there are finite numbers of strings of length greater than or equal to n and less than twice n because numbers of states in a DFA is finite so Turing machine can always generate all those strings on one of its step one by one systematically and then verify by simulating the DFA on that string whether it accepts or not if any one of the strings is accepted by the DFA whose length is greater than equal to n or less than twice n then it can decide that the language of the DFA is infinite so whether given regular language is infinite that means the corresponding for this problem the corresponding language is IRL the encoding of DFA A such that is a DFA and LA is infinite so you can show that IRL is decidable by constructing a Turing machine which will output yes or no accordingly now let us see the problem of equivalence of two regular languages the problem is that given two regular languages L1 and L2 is L1 equal to L2 whether they are identical the corresponding language is that is equivalence of regular language given two DFA's A and B these are encoding of DFA A B so A and B are DFA's and LA equal to LB whether they accept the same language or not so these are corresponding language problem now to solve this problem or to decide this language will first construct a new DFA which is say C from this given DFA A and B such that C accepts only those strings accepted by either A or B but not by both that means language of C is written as L of A interaction complement of LB union complement of LA interaction L of B these what is called the symmetric difference of A and B now given a DFA we know how to construct the DFA which accepts the complement of L of A so A is the DFA L of A is the language accepted by the DFA so complement of L of A will be accepted by that DFA where we just intersense the final states and non final states all the non final states will be final states and the final state will be non final state so that new DFA will accept the complement of the previous DFA so therefore from B we know how to construct the DFA which accepts complement of LB similarly from A we know how to construct the DFA which accepts complement of LA similarly we have given the procedure to construct interaction of two DFA similarly the union of two DFA so therefore we know how to construct the DFA C which is a symmetric difference of A and B now if we see carefully the language of C is fine you will find that language of C is fine even only if the language of A language accept by A and language accept by B are identical so therefore this problem now reduces the problem of whether LA equal to LB reduces the problem of finding whether LC equal to Phi or not now what we can do we can now just use the same algorithm for emptiness that we have already given over here so the algorithm for emptiness to determine whether LC equal to Phi or not so therefore if LC equal to Phi then LA equal to LB otherwise LA is not equal to LB so therefore you can determine whether the problem of equivalence of regular languages we can say that the problem of equivalence of regular language are decidable so after considering the problems from regular language let us now consider the membership problem of context free language that means the problem is that given a string X over sigma star for some sigma and a context free language L over that sigma whether or not X is a member of L same problem similar to the membership problem of regular languages only is that here the language is CFL context free the corresponding language is that is MCFG in this case we represent the language by giving the corresponding context free grammar in case of regular languages we used DFA as input so in this case we use the corresponding grammar G as input so in this case whenever we say that we use angular bracket it shows that this encoding of the G and given string X the way we have given the encoding for a DFA can also be extended to give an encoding of any given grammar so therefore we assume that such an encoding exist it is possible so this GX is the string a set of all strings GX the language that set of all strings GX where G is the grammar CFG and X is a string and here G is CFG and X is a string such that X belongs to L of G so these are corresponding language for this given membership problem of CFL now let us see whether it is decidable we can show that this is decidable by giving an algorithm now in this case what we can do in a for algorithm the input to consider as a CFG and a string X but here we assume that the X is not equal to epsilon in a string is epsilon then we can determine where it belongs to the grammar G or not by looking at the productions then you can only find out whether that epsilon belongs to the language or not by simply looking at the production now the string machine simply output yes or no depending on whether X belongs to the language or not in a first step we convert the CFG to CNF we know that in CNF all productions of the form a goes to BC that means the right hand side we can have only two non terminals or a goes to say a single symbol this kind of productions are allowed in CNF so since this is the case if we have a string say X of length n we can show that to derive this string X of length n using this grammar if X really belongs to L then it will take no more than 2 n minus 1 steps so makes n numbers of steps it may take is 2 n minus 1 because the right hand side of every production is obtained at most 2 where both are non terminals so after converting the grammar G to CNF because this algorithm we have already given in the context of your simplification of current speed and current speed grammars so we list all the derivations with 2 n minus 1 steps where n is number of length of the string once it is done once it knows all the derivations of length with 2 n minus 1 steps if any one of these derivations generate this string X then the termination will output yes otherwise the difference none derives the string X the termination will output no that means it is not accepted so therefore the membership problem of CFG or convex speed language is decidable since we have a algorithm to decide it


Welcome to Toffy TV now, listen, but Charleston's gone, he's old news, time to figure it by him, this, every time he posts something on Twitter from now on and there's a reference to Tottenham, don't get angry, that's who he plays for, get up, follow them, he's gone, but there you go, get on, although Twitter does make it hard for you to leave things behind, you may like this because you like that, I don't meet, I might like that one thing, blocked, there you go anyway. So it's time to move on, it's time to talk about who can replace with Charleston at Everton. Is place out there Bas? There is, I mean in terms of that obviously he's gone, he was quite unique I would say in terms of someone who plays off the front but worked incredibly hard and would run up and down, getting back on making trackers and stuff, in fact we've seen him get into it a couple of times doing that very thing. But do you think Everton are better trying to get some and it does exactly what he did or do you think they'd be better looking for someone with a different skill set? Just because, I don't even know how Frank Llanpard wants to play, we've got all of a sudden 94 centre backs, which would suggest maybe they're going to go to 3 at the back. So it's a hard one isn't it, if there are plays available out there that have that same kind of work right, you can score goals on the odd assist and get them but clearly they're going to be in the minority and that's maybe what makes for Charleston a little bit special and that's what spares have obviously looked for so if you can get that kind of play then fair enough. The modern player has been brought up I think to press and to get in the opposition's faces, this is not a new thing, this has been going on for the last 10 or so years since sort of Pep Guard the oldest Barcelona team, it was a fundamental part of the way they played. So it's not a new thing so you'd like to think a lot the players as they come through now that is a big part of the game and if there are plays out there then yeah, not everybody has that skill set but other people have different skill sets and I think the first and foremost thing is you have to replace the goals for me anyway that has to be the first thing and then have plays in your team that can maybe do the other side of the things he was good at and get that balance over the team but for me the goals have to be the big thing first so yeah it will be interesting to see who we look at. Yeah obviously we're getting the money in for it to be honest and we can hopefully now start to get our targets lined up, track off keys in the door and we move on to forward areas still desperate for them in the fielder as well but let's have a look anyway. And the first player that we could go after in the days, Emmanuel Dennis being linked heavily with him over the last few weeks he played 33 times so he offered last season in the Premier League 10 goals, 6 assists, shots per game he was averaging 1.8 and tackles 1.5 you know that's something that Ritialis was very very good at working hard and tackling so off the face of it Emmanuel Dennis looks like he's going to be the first to play. A decent you know looks like a decent replacement for Ritty. Yeah well I was going to say to you when you look at his numbers and he does seem to be the perfect fit in terms of players that are available straight away Premier League standard age wise he does look like a real fit and and I suppose the question would be is then why fit someone like him if more teams are not looking in his general direction he's gone down obviously with Wofford so his numbers look good what makes it a little bit less attractive. Well last season was a bit of an outlier in terms of the goals he's got he's never been he's never got that many goals before and that might be something that teams are allater to they might be looking and thinking well you know is he going to produce that again can he produce that again I think he came into Wofford last season he was an unknown quantity for the Premier League but at the good season he's got 16 goals involved it's one more than the Tialison same amount of goals obviously as Ritty as well so I think Wofford looking at around £20 million for him but he is like you just said he's a good age 24 and a really good age does work hard of course a couple of headers as well last season so decent in the air as well so he's won I think he's won that Everton will be looking at very interestedly obviously you know they've watched this miles saw last season as well so they will have seen Dennis at close quarters he did of course score a good listen as well when he spanked us so he's someone who's definitely on the radar like I say the only thing that might make them I wouldn't say dubious but might make them think you know is he the real deal is can he do it again was last season an outlier in terms of he won't get that many goals again where we knew it the Tialison he got you know double figures every season but he had only scored five at Wofford when we bought him so it's one of them but he's definitely want to think that will be in the conversation without the shadow we'll move on of course another player we've been linked with and he's also part of a relegated team is Coney from Burnley to have a look at his numbers there he is 26 games played nine goals one assist is in the Premier League average 1.8 shots per game and tackles no 0.6 so obviously worse than the Tialison and obviously Emmanuel Dennis as well but this is a fella Everton had looked at a few seasons ago when he was at Lyon played left wing back but also can play off either flanth been he got him in and he come in and he done really well for them you know nice left foot attitude a little bit at times I think obviously wasn't aware he tried a permanent deal that's an issue not really sure what these badges are really no likes the unbro badge but he said he is a good player and again an interest in one how much you'd get him for I don't think but I think if you're Burnley you probably just want him out of the squad but then they've just got Finsen company and he might be able to appeal to you it's not a worry as such I do think he's a good player I just I actually think Burnley might have stayed up if it wasn't for his miss the miss the penalty at West Ham and I also remember a sitter at Norwich yeah and there was a couple more as well don't let me down we scored some important goals it's just like they're like the indelible moments and of course because of course we experienced them massively so they are imprinted on my mind think I've just lots of times when you're thinking imagine if you scored it West Ham to make it 2-0 obviously the game finished 1-1 you know imagine you know he put that equaliser I think with being equaliser at Norwich you know these just moments that are printed on my memory that come from him and of course listen he scored against us didn't he so it's you know he scored he didn't score he did score important goals but I just keep thinking about him but I mean of course I think he's got well it's a what's his bio quote bio something like 16 17 like that something like that and again would barely really want to do business with us after everything that's gone on yeah I imagine they will be looking or of course it's difficult they want they want to they will they will want to come straight back up and having someone like in some company being in charge is cwll anoddi'r bobl iddwch ar ddyngan fel we've got a serious manager in or someone who knows the Premier League is not long left the Premier League as a player we want to get back straight away and we've already lost a few players so we want to keep a few so he's definitely in there he's definitely a good player but then there are again like Dennis there are question marks because he was involved in a relegation yeah I mean you know not necessarily all always his fault but you know to fel her he got 30 odd goals in 190 games for Leon again albeit played wingback and stuff so the nine goals he got a little bit of an outlier but he's got the talent with that left foot and that but that is the thing if you look into the place with the others and he was getting consistently double figures for the team you know manual Dennis last season was the most goals he ever scored in a league season so that's what I'm talking about the outlier I think the others was seven six and seven seasons so you know cornyn is exactly the same so he's another one good eight like he's only 25 at the moment but not convinced yeah so we move on to our next one the next one is there's someone evidently being heavily linked with leader a link with them as well it is a final doing a Louis Sinistera 30 games played last season in the editivisey 12 goals and seven assists averages 2.6 shots per game and his tackles are 1.3 per game good wing a lot of pace seeing him on the final documentary if anyone's watched that one 23 years of age very quick I think he played 49 games last season I think he got 19 goals in all competitions for final so knows where the net is he's interesting you know 20 million I think the quote of that which again great age South American hard work you know we thought we were getting Lewis Diaz you know a year or hopefully we were getting him a year ago but leads are very interested in taking him to Elham Road so everything would have the competition for him but he's a left winger more than a striker but you know what that numbers you've seen he works really hard and obviously he had a good link up on the left with Sarah Malassia who was going to Manchester United from final as well so but he is a good player and you know I was wondering if Evan would be looking for an out winger or someone who can do a couple of jobs but he would be a good player and someone who a little bit different thinking I'll try at the box a little bit again you have to ask the question of what however they're going to play this season you know you know do you play to more of a 4-3-3 at times then of course you can play on either side and being being valuable and you get me to get a little bit more out of that player again plays you come from the Dutch league we've had this conversation a lot of times you can never quite tell some of them are brilliant but some of them are very much hit and miss so as you mentioned leads are heavily linked with them and obviously that deal will be if Rafina or even when Rafina makes the move so wherever he's going whether it be Chelsea or Barcelona we'll have to wait and see so another one on the list there he's a good player he'll play a good age as well he was 23 a couple of weeks ago so great age but leads may well have started that but you know it's one of them. The next player we're going to look at is someone who I've wanted for a few years Evan have scouted them extensively it is Moose of the Arby at Liverpool who's had a great season last season 32 games in bundles league of 13 goals 12 assists averages 1.7 shots per game but tackles are 0.6 another player who is a flyer play off the left or the right you know can cause loads of issues loads of problems I think it's someone Evan I think should have gone maybe a year ago and I'm new castle being very heavily linked with them in the last few weeks and they have got the money to deal maybe Evan haven't quite got the money anymore to do what they want to do with this player but he'd be a brilliant addition and again another player who was on I think is on the way up you know someone who you could get in develop and then you could potentially sell on again there to make some money and you know really play into the sell on FC tack but he's someone I think Evan he'd do really well at Evan yeah he's obviously probably someone from the Premier League will take him and whether he considers Evan the right move at this stage of his career again it's that thing of like you know does he jump straight into a Champions League team or does he go the one run down or are we even that run down I suppose it would we get involved and could we convince him and do we have the money which is the other side of it isn't it but why not we're aiming big aren't we we're aiming big we're aiming to bring these kind of players in so we've got to have maybe we've got to change what we've done in the past and the problem with him is a problem but similar theme with the other players we've said is that again last season was his best season you know but isn't that a good thing now isn't that you're looking for a player who's come off a good season saying well they're on their way up yeah yeah I was just going to cite the age now these are 24 and under these players so potentially yeah it's like it could be the thing but the thing we've seen with Dominic Hall that's living other than injury last season every season he's beaten the season before so that could be a good thing yeah there's not loads who are around at 20 who are consistently scored and if they are they're playing for Manchester City like Harland or something and then a final one obviously someone haven't been very interested in for a good few months now the links are being bounced around I've liked the look of them all season at Southampton and that is Armand Obrosia his numbers are amazing by any stretch we can see 32 games for Southampton six goals no assists 1.4 shots again tackles 0.4 but he is the youngest of all of them he's not 21 till September that was his face he made his debut Frank Lampard gave him his debut against Evan when Lampard was the Chelsea manager but he's someone he's a work in progress there's no question about that with him he's got rough edges but he's powerful I think he could he's one I think if you get him right it could be absolutely fantastic the only issue I guess with him is if you play him off the left his head is down a little bit he's more of a he's more of a normal a central striker if Evan played 3-5-2 he's someone who I think would be really good buzzing around but I'm going to call the loon because he does like to travel with the ball you'd have to have if Evan were playing say a 4-3-3 I think you'd have to have someone in midfield who could cover the ground that he's not going to quite do the way the Chelsea did but it's the positive stuff going the other way I think that you get an off browser do you think he could be one where it's him and one of the other names on there and he could be say if he was we bought them and eventually replace Dominic Harvill doing? yeah if you wanted to play him off fluid from 3 absolutely because he is someone who you can play that on the corner he does go like that and he's got a trick he can run past people so things don't really isn't he strikes me more as if Evan did go down the 3-5-2 route then I mean that would then put question marks over like Anthony Gordon and Damari Gray I guess but it's the squad and you've got to give yourself that opportunity to play different ways but I personally believe this kid's got a big future I think he looks like it's kind of had the goals now you know he was on loan a fetus what a surprise for Chelsea and he got one in three over there as a young kid and now he's come in and had a season in the Premier League Chelsea may not want to sell him it may be a case of loan him you know give him another year to develop which could be a good option for Evan well I was going to say just right now given the way stuff is maybe that's a good way to go and then you can use them in both positions and then if it gets to a stage where you get to next summer and Dominic Harvill loom and to track them big money and Evan could maybe get them then that might be a way to trade him and out you know remain with the money but I think he'd be a really good addition for Evan and again another one who's a young player who's under 24 and it shows you that there are players out there there's a lot more than what I've mentioned here these are just some of the options that I think are open to Evan and I believe Evan can get maybe the RB maybe it's just that ship sailed but the other three I think are well within Evan's grasp there you go let us know your thoughts who would you out of the list like at Evan and who's not on the list who would you like to see on the list and maybe if we compile enough names we'll do another video who will replace for Charleston part two so let us know your thoughts in the comments on this one if you haven't already if you want more great videos become a toffee TV premier member the link is in the description and the QR code will be on the screen right now


What's good, YouTube? This is what you were all back to y'all again with another art video, man. If you're new to this channel, go ahead and hit that like button, come in, subscribe, make sure you click post notifications so you will be notified anytime your butt drops on heat. In today's video, I am using one of my faces from my face pack. If you would like to purchase the face pack for yourself so you can keep up with me and follow along step by step, the link will be in the description below. Without further ado, let's jump right into it. First thing you wanna do is make a copy of this face. Drag it and drop it. Create new layer, just drag it and drop it right there. Bam, lock the top. We finna use my skin tone palette as well. So, go ahead and select a color from the Chiwara palette that will be in the description below too. So you guys can grab that if you would like. Make sure your bottom color is locked. Make sure this color is at the top. Go to your rectangle tool and we're gonna drag that color over the entire picture. Then you wanna right click the color, go to arrange and send to back. After you do that, you wanna highlight everything together and click merge. So the color can become one with your line word. Right click the color, go to isolate, select the group and we're gonna delete this outer color right here. Now, we're gonna hold shift and we're gonna change the color to it's toboggan, like red, select these glasses, change that to white. You feel me? Hold shift, change that. That color right there, the gray, gray is blue. Go to this lip color, make that dark. Isolate, select the group to this. We could give it a gradient, but we don't, we'll do all that later for now. Now that we got our base color laid down, let's create a copy of our color layer, lock the bottom one, turn the eye off real quick. Right click the color, select the color first, then go to isolate, select the group. The skin tone out of that layer, delete this, because that's a part of the glasses. We can turn the eye back on on our bottom layer, create us a new layer, put it in between them two, right there, and now, let's start adding our shadows.  Okay, the first thing we're gonna do, we're gonna create a dark shadow under the nose. Now what I do when I create my shadows, I try to follow the shape of the nose, so watch this. Watch this. Since I'm going from a shadow from the bottom, you notice how I'm following this shape. Follow that like this. We're gonna leave a little light source right here.  We're gonna create another dark tone under this bottom lip, right here. I'll create another shadow, a deep shadow right here. Let's just connect. Also, I'm gonna let you guys see the reference I'm looking at. I'm gonna put it on the string inside of post, so when I'm going off of, I'm also doing my own thing as well. Let's put a dark shadow under his chin right here. The dark shadow inside of his ears, and this shadow. You notice too, once I finish doing all my dark tones with that one color, I always create new layers for different colored tones. So every colored tone has its own layer. So if I need to go back and change something, I ain't gotta worry about trying to work around other colors, because I separated them all. Need to put one behind this little, and let's create a new layer that's underneath that dark tone, right there. And we're gonna go a little lighter. And it's just gonna be the transition phase on this side of the face. Ain't much light hitting on this side of the face. Come back this way, with a deep shadow right here. Let's just, this color, a little lighter, you know what I'm saying? So that's all it is, it's just transition with colors until you get that effect, you know? And just like I said, every time you go lighter with your tones, you tuck it under the darker tone. I'm gonna make this a little darker, so I'm gonna select this color. We're gonna go to edit, edit colors, adjust color balance. Then we're gonna put this on CMYK. Convert, go to preview so we can see what we're doing. Y'all think that's pretty good, it okay.  Let me make sure I got this. And a lot of times when you're looking at a reference, it's not gonna show you, so you gotta improvise. It ain't gonna show you all the details of where you should put shadows, you just gotta go off your natural instinct. So that's what I'm doing, right? Just trust yourself sometime. Right under the top line work layer, the shadow for this red. Let me zoom in some, so it's a nice little dark shadow. Right here, this lip layer, create us a dark tone. Create me a new layer, some of this skin tone. We're gonna create a highlight, really just on the nose. Edit color, adjust color balance, perfecto. Let's make a copy of that layer with the glasses on it. That we color, make a copy of that layer. Come to this top, right here, and let's select the glasses. Right click, go to isolate, select the groove. Hold shift, and select both of the lenses. Now on your swatches, you should go to your super soft black vignette, I think that's what it's called.  Also, we ain't done there. What we gonna do, let's go to window, pull out your gradient, we gonna change the color, or the fade of the gradient, like this. Into a color, you know what I'm saying? Come over here to your gradient tool, and select it, that gradient, to be. I'm so y'all can see what I'm doing. Click off of it, that's a nice little gradient on the glasses, gonna create us another layer, right above the glasses, you know what I'm saying? Underneath the top line work.  After you find the fading sky, you wanna change this color to like a purplish red, that's what I can describe it. Then you wanna change this color to just a bright pink.  That's a little flare on that.   You don't want it to blur, I bet. You okay? You envy me. And now we done, man. Just like I said, if you wanna follow along with this tutorial, work on your shade, and work on your game, feel free to purchase my face pack. I think it's like, I don't know, I don't know how much it is. Probably like five dollars, I think. 10 faces for five dollars.  Make sure you stay tuned, MoHeat coming soon, and I'm out.


The following is a presentation of TFNN. The Trader's Edge with Steve Rhodes. Toll free at 1-877-927-6648 or internationally at<PHONE_NUMBER>. The Trader's Edge. Now, Steve Rhodes. Good afternoon from TFNN. Welcome to the June 26th, the wonderful Wednesday edition of today's Trader's Edge show. I'm your host, Steve. Perseverance Rhodes, who absolutely knows that each of us should always be pioneers of our future versus prisoners of our past. Hope everyone out there is having a great day. How about we have an extraordinary one? Yep, let's have an extraordinary day. And the easiest way to do that is to always remember that life is happening for us, not to us. That's right. When you and I make that one little two-by-four shift, it means we can find the gift in every set of circumstances. That life is going to toss at us. Today, you and I, we're going to go check on the circumstance of these markets. We're going to go figure out what the bulls and the bears, what those buyers and sellers are communicating to you and I just passed one o'clock in the afternoon. I want you to know that I'm absolutely grateful for your presence here, but more importantly than that, during this next hour, I'm here to serve you. So feel free to pick up that phone like John and Philly has done. You can call us at<PHONE_NUMBER>. If you can't call and we've got you covered, let those fingers do the walking. Send me an email at Steve at tfn.com. Inside the subject heading, please put radio show question in our Tiger's Den. Any ping will do. So let's go ahead and get this show started on wonderful Wednesday. Of course, this is Tiger Financial News Network. I'm Steve Rhodes. Welcome to last show right now. Markets in the green to the upside. The weakest would be the Russell 2000 up only about 50 cents. Spot volatility expect 10 pennies, but still above its 50-day exponential moving average. Gold is off four bucks, and that's where we're going to begin the day by going and speaking with John and Philly and discussing gold. John, thanks for calling. Thanks for holding. How are you on wonderful Wednesday? Hey, wonderful Wednesday. Too bad it is not weird Wally Wednesday. But hey, I'm speaking to you, so it could get weird. It could. It could. I wanted to ask you if you can help me with some shorter term work on this gold. You and I have spoke privately over the past months where I began employing your, the tool you discovered, the utility from a trader's perspective on stock indices of using Apple G and Perigee Pivots, that lunar cycle tool. And of course we've had the discussions where I've started applying that and looking to see if it's as useful as a technical tool on Comex, gold and silver futures. And the bottom line is over these past months I have concluded it is useful. Okay, anyway, gold has rallied so strongly as we all know. It's pulled back. It's just now in day two of a pullback. We have the Osaka G20 meeting right in front of us and I have my suspicions as to what's really going on there but let's leave that aside and make this observation, Steve, that the decline in the gold futures from 1443 down to 1405 in two days time as far as the number of dollars per ounce in a correction this is amongst the biggest during the past weeks. And what's really interesting to me, Steve, is this, the Apigee Pivot for August Gold Futures is 1403. Well, we went down to 1405 this morning and of course we bounced a little bit. Nothing conclusive but that level has been tested and held. So I'm wondering if you can share with us if there's any other technical work that's in your arsenal that we can hang our hat on to look to in support of the idea that a pullback to this 1405 or something close could in fact be a completed pullback followed almost immediately by higher highs. So if you've got something to share on that I'd be much obliged. Sure, so we'll do that and you mentioned short-term so we'll go take a look at some short-term charting timeframes out there and see what their message is. First what I want to do for the listeners out there is John was referring to the Paragee and Apigee Pivot points. Now Paragee is the lunar phase during the current cycle where the moon is furthest from Earth and Apigee would be during the cycle when the moon is closest to Earth and over the weekend, sometime on Sunday John I don't recall the time, but it was during non-market trading hours was when that Paragee lunar phase arrived. Over a weekend what I do is because I'm never sure of where this hidden level of support or resistance is at. It's either the close of Friday's session or it's the open of Sunday's session. Right now John has pegged the open of Sunday's session as being the number. They're both relatively close. The close of Friday was 1400.10 and the open on Sunday 140390. We won't worry about the change out there. So in essence the message that I'm hearing John say is because this has worked I haven't followed Apigee and Paragee as to the gold contract as much as John has but we know how good of a trader and knowledge that he comprises and so we have to believe him. So John, first question I would pose back to not to answer the second because I'll but I would if gold were to close below 1400 let's say right now and I know you're looking at it from the long side buying pullbacks from the long side would you change course? But before you answer that question because you want to specifically provide to us some additional information maybe that influences your question or not. So I'll step back from the daily chart that we have here and just go to the five hour chart of course we don't have a 25 hour day but that for whatever reason you and Bob Saratoga Bob identified the importance of the five hour time frame. So let's take a look at that. In the five hour time frame for gold the chart that we have up on our screen it was generating or it did generate yesterday a price relative strength divergent pattern the rose momentum indicator signal did that when this bear bearish engulfing bear sash candle arrived at nine o'clock now what price is done since then whenever I get a topping signal what that means folks it doesn't mean back up the truck and go short it means anticipate that the market is going to pull back it could just be a normal retracement in essence that's the question that John is asking is this morning's pullback just a normal retracement to support he's using the perigee pivot point as one level and in that instance we have to say yes if we take a look at the five hour time frame chart the first level of support or really there's a couple levels of support that are out here that that tie into each other the first would be the bottom of the five hour profile John that was at fourteen oh eight twenty when we take a look at profiles it's on a closing basis versus an intercession time period that level held and just below that was the most recent breakout of gold on a five hour time frame that began at twenty three hundred hours on June twenty third that low was fourteen oh three sixty and that is set up by that red dash line so I'll say that fourteen oh three sixty level is tying right into your perigee pivot point and if you were to get a close below both of those the signal to me would be to look at gold from the short side not the long side we're out of time but we're going to be right back and we'll further discuss gold with John we'll take a look at the thirty minute sixty minute time frame to get his answer what will he do if price of gold closes below perigee we'll be right back

California and we'll post a couple other charts out there for you to consider so we take a look at the daily time frame charger for gold we were looking at this yesterday might have been Brent in Martinez California and he was looking for a topping signal and as long as the price of gold closes above thirteen ninety six ninety today and right now we're trading at our following nine at a high can be a can be a topping pattern plus we have the A to B equal CD to the upside now we don't have the end of the week so I will show you the weekly chart out here if we did end up with a bearish reversal signal right now we've got a shooting star pattern but it's only Wednesday if we did then this would say the A to B equal CD to the upside has completed and anticipate a pullback the last thing that I'll throw out here for you how would we know if the move to the downside is over and there's more rally to come for me it would be a close above oh this is silver I meant to grab gold so let me grab the gold chart out here in gold in a price point is fourteen twenty seven ninety that happens to be the most recent TD set up nine count on a thirty minute basis to the downside that began at six thirty last evening so price for me would have to close above that the support line was the most recent TD set up nine count and that price point which price broke through last night was fourteen seventeen ninety which is acting old support right now is acting as resistance so those are all the numbers that I have the question I was asking you based on this information if you were to see price close below perigee how does that change your trading tactics if any well that's a bummer we can't get the answer to that question okay well those are the numbers for gold so here I'm just going to summarize it for you folks sorry about that that the TF and the line dropped it but that's fine out here John you're welcome to call back in no problem but these are the numbers so right now here in a thirty minute chart for gold what we see here is a series of lower lows and a series of lower highs but again for me on the short term the price of gold would have to close about fourteen twenty seven ninety in order to suggest that today's low and pullback to your perigee pivot point was nothing more than a test of support out there so I hope that helps you out with regard to that trade out there let me just check and see if there's any requests out here that have come in and if not we'll go right to the right to the general market no requests here so let's take a look at the general markets and try to get a feel for try to get a feel for for where we're at right now so what is it that Stevie is looking at the first thing that I'm paying attention to and you already know this yesterday's close was an interesting close for the New York Stock Exchange both conditions that I had shared with you last night that would indicate a change of trend were achieved and that was a combination of the advanced decline oscillator reading closing below zero the actual reading at the close yesterday was where is it minus twenty seven sixty seven right now we're at minus basically thirteen out here now with regard to the advanced decline oscillator this is what I have found that is most important quite frankly folks it's no different than everything you and I do in life which is if you're going to do something make sure you have foul through that's how I approach trading the bearish reversal signal that we or bullish reversal signal to confirm a top or a bottom must have foul through on the next session to really confirm what it is that you're seeing in the advanced decline oscillator that follow through is a continued close below zero if this were to close at one twenty two we'd say there's a problem in river city in other words expect a further pullback out here because we're still below minus zero come bind with combined with the spot volatility x closing above its fifty day exponential moving average yesterday the close was sixteen twenty the fifteen seventy five level was the fifty day exponential moving average right now it's fifteen seventy five that's still what the that's still what the fifty day exponential moving average is and we're trading at sixteen twenty so you've got both of those conditions okay so why isn't Stevie jumping on the short train just yet and the reason is because there's other levels of support that quite frankly we're so close to that need to be busted to be able to confirm that being on the short side of the trade is the correct side of the trade what do you mean by that stevo okay here's what i mean specifically first is we're taking a look at the advanced decline oscillator it's dealing with market breadth for the new york stock exchange now what i'm going to look at we're taking a look at the spotball till-dakes we're really referencing the s&p five hundred well voila i have and you could too i believe that today's last day to get an extraordinary deal on the attas market breadth profile type system out here and here's the market breadth for the daily chart for the s&p five hundred what you can see as one twenty three exactly as one twenty three in the afternoon is hundred thirty seven components for the s&p five hundred are trading above the top of their box in other words bullish and hundred thirty one only six less are trading below the bottom of their box in other words bearish out here when you get a crossover a crossover says okay possible change in trend what was last crossover that we received inside of the s&p five hundred the bullish case that was on june fourth now with this being so close to each other kissing cousins almost so to speak out here wouldn't you wait for the crossover to the downside as an additional confirmation stevie would and you should too and in fact the you should too is get over to the homepage at tfn.com and try the attas market profile system you high use it i can't imagine i cannot imagine trading without understanding where support or resistance is in order to be able to help you for whatever time frame it is that you trade identify where those hidden levels of support or resistance are and when they get broken to make it much easier to put the odds of the probability on your side that you're doing the right thing to me doing the right thing would be waiting to see if there's a crossover here what else is there there's one last component to this piece of the puzzle there could be two i'll give you the options out here the option said what did i do there almost close this thing out i just wanted to change my workspace out here so for those that don't pay attention to the equity futures contracts and if you don't pay attention you're trading the s&p 500 of the dow or the nasdaq or the russell 2000 and the question you should be asking yourself is why why aren't you following the instrument that's really giving you the best patterns out here look in the s&p 500 you would want to pay attention to steve's green line right now that's a twenty nine fifteen that's the oscillator and changeline the oscillator and changeline represents the price level that price would have the price sitting right on it it tells us the price oscillator is moving sideways if prices above that level and the price also by the way is a difference between two exponential moving averages nineteen and thirty nine and when it's above zero and prices rising above zero it's bullish and that's what we have that's where i've got my line chain color going from red to green green tells us the price oscillator so we don't have to go figure in the price also you can typically use your mac d tool you can just look at the mac d line in nineteen and thirty nine just make sure that it's not following the original mac d rules which would be simple moving averages do something simple what kind of results you're going to get exponentially if you do it it's a much better thing twenty nine fifteen is the number i'll give you the number for the e s many we get back to this break and we'll take all the questions that you

nine nineteen but at twenty nine ten we've got what I believe is the bottom of the daily task market profile and so a close below both of those combined with the spotball tilde x being above its fifty day the new york stock exchange advanced decline oscillator being below zero if we get that crossover on the s and p five hundred well that's about all that you can ask for as far as signals we can't control what happens next we can only control what we do with the information we have now but the information that we would have now then would say OK at least the s and p five hundred and the new york stock exchange want to continue to pull back so those would be the levels that I would be watching so let's go to a couple questions that we have out here the first one coming in from victor and the second question is what is your time connection well hey victor nice to nice to speak to you by email I was wondering what your take is on the smh's has been lagging for some time now is it finally in play and I'm I'm grateful that you're enjoying the show so let's go take a look at the smh's now Victor when you ask me to look at the smh's and here's your three timeframes out here the daily time frame shows us for the smh specifically that's the etf folks for the semiconductor etf what you're going to see is prices right up against resistance resistance is the top of that profile one oh eight eighty now price can close over one oh eight eighty by the way we're one oh eight eighty four is four pennies going to blow your skirt up or my skirt up the answer there is no so we need like a real close and I'd have to say it has to be a close above one oh nine twenty point from just a few days ago which is one oh nine twenty so let's just say if we get a close above one oh nine twenty then yeah it's in play in fact there could be an A to B equal CDT upside the B put of this trade takes you back to June 11 eight million shares today you're at five point two that would say yeah close above I close above this one oh nine twenty level would save got an upside now interestingly enough and when you're asking me to take a look at the ETF what I like to really do is go back to the underlying instrument and that's the SOX index what is the SOX index communicating to you and I so if we pull over the daily time frame chart what we're also going to see here is that prices right up against resistance it's a different resistance line so it's really nice about the SMH and then the semiconductor index because here I don't have the what I do have is we've got Stevie's other tools and indicators for example when the semiconductor index made its high it did it with wave number seven that's letter number G and it also did it with a TD set up nine count it was bar number eight now when the semis made their most recent low coincidence it made it with wave number seven letter G and a TD set up nine count being bar number eight how's that stuff work now that set up the bottom but like all bottoms you then have to understand where resistance is well that's very clear because we use that TD set up resistance line that's where price broke down that's the green solid line on my system that's from the trading day of May 17 or the high out there 1436 15 we're trading right now 1436 13 what so here's my answer to you Victor and I appreciate that you enjoy the show and maybe some of these strange or weird Wally as as John and the Tiger would say you know things that I throw out there but here's the deal you can't take a trade now if you're going to trade any trade you'd consider going short I'm not suggesting that you go short especially since we just took a look at the volume inside the SMH and we'll use that as to what's going on but price is really up against resistance as we speak you close above these levels again let me give you the level inside the semiconductor index well the level of Stevie's green line is priced at 1436 15 but we're really going to say you've got to close above 14 41 39 to be in play out there and then it's next level of resistance is from the high from a 6 out here at 15 45 34 so it may be in play but you're right up against resistance this would be the wrong time to put your money at risk and if it does close above that then what you're doing is you're going ahead and trading a breakaway a breakout trade that don't always work but but you'd at least have you'd at least know that certain levels of resistance have failed and you made a bottom earlier and price should continue to move higher so hope that helps you out with regard to the SMH's and what it is that they appear to be doing out there so thanks for writing in let's go to the next question that came in the next question comes from Michael P while you are talking about gold can you also identify resistance areas so Michael here's the deal on resistance I believe for Goldilocks it's really this chart here this chart which is a monthly time frame chart shows you and I just how extraordinarily important the price point of 1434 is now you may say it's not that important but I'm suggesting to you that it is very important out there we really had in essence three resistance levels on the way up 1361 1392 and 1434 a close above 1434 this week this month this quarter because everything ends on this Friday a close above that then would say Gold could run to 1798 10 which would be its next swing point and my forecast that Gold is going to 1798 and no what I'm really saying is gosh darn careful please you can't have me in one conversation respond to Victor and say the SMHs are up at resistance and now is the time to take that trade I didn't say that I said if anything you would look at shorting it because price is sitting right at resistance I suggested not doing that because of the volumetric inside the SMH but resistance is resistance you are asking about resistance and that is what the price of Gold is done it hit that resistance level what is more likely to happen is Gold is going to pull back and this pullback if you hang with this pullback you're going to hate Gold you're going to say darn it you know what you were thinking of saying I had it at the top at 1434 I've ridden it all the way down to 1205 that's a number out there possibly the 1200 ish level only to find and really hate it get the Sam heck out of dodge only to find out that that was really the buying time that's nothing more than the longer term trend line from 2015 and then tagging the bottom of August of 2018 out there am I saying that's what Gold is going to do I'm saying right now that the charts for Gold Michael they got topping signals they've got that TD setup nine count as long as price closes above 1396 90 and now thanks to John and the Tiger's Den we can use our perigee pivot point and some others to say you know what if Gold closes below that you really don't want to be long now that's my impression that's my signal that's what I would suggest out there John might have a different idea but I will share with you that there's a lot of stuff against significant resistance inside of Gold those are the numbers out here so just be careful not saying to exit your trade saying to use a stop not a mental stop because you know what happens with mental stops we go mental we say price just blew through it now what do I do maybe it'll bounce maybe it will maybe it won't don't leave it to chance out there we'll be right back $50,000 investment at a normal 4-year CD rate of 3.1% would give you income of $1550 per

Tiger TV for the latest market information welcome back out folks it's time in our segment to talk Bitcoin digital currency with Ralph in Arlington, Texas Ralph thanks for calling thanks for holding how are you today do we have Ralph I got nothing in my ear studio Ralph Arlington, Texas Bitcoin I guess he dropped okay well I don't know what the question was right now Bitcoin if we take a look at the futures contract trading out at 13405 I don't know what the question was so not really sure where to go with that so let's go to some other questions maybe Ralph will give us a call back and be happy to discuss a Bitcoin let's go to HD HD is thinking about going along the energy sector XLE so let's go take a look at the XLE let's take a look at its three different timeframes just to gauge where price is trading in relationship to its profiles out here so let me get rid of some of these retracement so we can see that right now price is trading into the top of its daily profile out here and so that level is 63.78 you'd really like to see price close over 63.78 to continue this upward momentum out here what else is going to impact what else is going to impact the XLE well certainly would be light sweet crude so let's peek in on light sweet crude it's trading out at 5944 it's up a buck 61 a buck 61 when we take a look at the current contract here price is trading above resistance resistance here let's pull this over so that you can see it and I'll change the retracement levels from green to yellow we just have too much green out here so we can make one easy change there there we go so as we take a look at when I say price is trading over resistance I'm referring to its weekly timeframe profile 5917 of course it's Wednesday not Friday so we don't know if price is going to close above this level come Friday but right now price is trading above that resistance level suggesting that price wants to get to 6033 the point 618 retracement level well the high so far today is 5993 that's really not that far away as it's 43 cents away but but things do look pretty good here so what would stop me from taking a trade in the XLE as we speak well if we look at the XLE specifically what price needs to do out here so close to resistance resistance is where this most recently broke down that takes us to May 22 out here that Stevie solid green line that represents the high of that TD setup nine count to the downside and that level is measured at 6428 so I cannot suggest taking a long trade in XLE being so close to resistance out here it just now if price were to pull back to 6190 Steve's red line well maybe that is one possibility at 6190 we're not anywhere near the top of it's a daily profile out here what else can Stevie go look at to take a look at inside of light sweet crude how about a 30 minute time frame chart out here well the 30 minute time frame chart Mr. Bill and I were taking a peek at this this morning and we suggested that hey caution caution will Robinson the reason we said caution will Robinson was because right here at 11 o'clock this morning we noticed here on the 30 minute base was at 10 30 this morning we noticed that the TD setup nine count on a 30 minute basis was in effect and that the bar following bar number nine was making a higher high and that could have been a short term top turns out Mr. Bill was right it was a short term top that's just simply how this pattern works look at bars 8 9 or 10 out there and make sure you understand the configuration the pattern so on and so forth but at this stage here at the 30 minute basis if you really have a hankering for taking that trade let price pull all the way back to 58 71 that's the that's the bottom of that that's the low of that TD setup nine count to the upside out there that would be a support level not pulling back to that area wouldn't be too shabby because of that wide ranging bar you have from 1700 hours back here on June the 25th out there so that's how I would take a look at XLE you're just too close right now to resistance to go ahead and take that trade as far as I can as far as I could see a price breaks the resistance well then what you're looking for is we would just simply look to the top of the weekly profile and that's 6580 see the the average true range for last 10 days is 98 cents we can't use 98 cents for a stop you've got to use some multiplication factor greater than that 1.272 or 1.618 or volatile the market the wider the stop all that using the wide stop means is you have fewer shares it doesn't change the trade the one thing you and I can control the only thing we can control is how much we risk on any one trader investment out there if you use the 1% rule this rule folks was is something that I was tasked to develop back in 1979 1979 1979 80 and it was using it wasn't even busy calc what was the first calc out there might have been busy calc actually I first had to do it on a spreadsheet and then we got some some Apple PCs we got an IBM PC in the office and I was tasked with with doing this so I was able to identify what's the best way to to to take a look at risk in trading markets out there and that's where the 1% rule was developed all the 1% rule does just go back and mathematically do this yourself go back and mathematically do this yourself take whatever size portfolio you want doesn't matter whether it's $100 $10,000 a million $1% of that value that is what you're risking assume that you lose on that trade then take 1% of what's left over and then assume you lose on that trade and 1% of what's left over assume you lose you have to I don't remember the number off the top of my head it's something like you need 300 it's not exactly 300 don't write into me do the work yourself it's something like 300 it's not like I'm saying it's 350 and it's like 300 I mean it's like 300 or 368 268 trade you would have to have in a row to burn through all your capital now no one is going to do that this is trading and investing is about protecting capital now what I mean by 1% let's just say you got a portfolio of 100 grand 1% is what you're going to start to determine or begin to determine how many shares you're going to buy how many shares are you going to buy you're going to figure out what your stop is your stop has got to be at least the average through range the average through range is just the average moving over 10 days that's normal breathing for the XLE in this case here 98 cents we'll call it a buck so really the stop would have to be a buck 68 I'm saying so you take the thousand dollars divided by a buck 68 that is how many shares you would purchase this is what you brought to me this was pointed out to me by my favorite polar bear he said oh well hold your horses stevo I like the thought process here but if this is an individual stock and you use your you use your position sizing and then your total capital out late I get the risk part but if your total capital out late is more than 10% on one stock do you really want to do that and I said you know David you're one smart guy and the answer there is no so then you'd even buy fewer shares not a gesture stop maybe your risk is only a half a percent position sizing folks there is nothing more important to protecting your capital learn about it we'll be right back in the 1980s Basil noticed that prices under most circumstances virtually always had a certain number of legs to the upside before declining sharply later Basil found that computer software which included the standard market

Editing Course Sections If we turn the editing on in our course by clicking the button top right, or by going to the administration block and clicking the link Turn Editing On, we can then rename our sections from, for example, Topic 1, to a name that's relevant to us, by clicking the pencil icon, clicking in a new name and pressing Enter. Or we can click Edit and then Edit Topic, we can then rename it to something we like, and we can use the formatting inside the summary to give information about the section. When I click Save Changes at the bottom, you can see that the Topic section has been renamed and its name is also reflected in the navigation block in the current course link. It's possible with the editing turned on to Move Sections, so we could Move Topic 2, which is not yet renamed, up above Topic 1, which has been renamed to Reading. To delete this section, we click X to delete the topic from the menu on the right of the section. Remember, this will also delete any activities in that section, so you can get them back again from the Recycle Bin link in Course Administration. This course now has three sections. We can add a new section quickly at the bottom by clicking the plus or remove a section by clicking the minus. Removing a section this way will keep any activities out of sight, but it's not the same as deleting a section. So, if I click the plus here, we now have four sections again in our course.
