re: Apple up over 10% and $47 since last week....what do we see first $500 or $400

That's how I feel actually just read next 2 iPhones were designed by jobs before he died....so there goes the no innovation post jobs...Personally I don't know any Mac users who would go back to pc.people just have unreal expectations that apple must create a new category of product every few years like the iPad.....they're not going the way of dell or Microsoft those brands never had the same mass appeal nor did they have a retail footprint like apple....one step inside an apple store should give you all the investor confidence you need

$457.20 in premarket today.....wow I am just stunned....2 weeks ago we were at $385 and so many people were saying apple was done and $350 was around the corner funny how a buyback announcement along with a $17B bond offering with immense demand leads to a near 20% gain in the world's largest company in such a short time.

the stock goes ex-div this week and with $3.05 per share due this period, i think we'll go way through the $460 resistance by thursday's div date.

broke through $460 but back to $459 hopefully it can hold up the resistance

BTW, I was simplifying the $460 figures because the Fibonacci resistance was right at $460.68 which its been staying right around right now +/- 20 cents. If it closes above that level and stays above tomorrow, I expect you'll be making a pretty big cash out on that.

Going to be very interesting. This is why I love technicals, from a fundamental perspective it makes absolutely no sense why 23.6% in a Fibonacci sequence would be a resistance level for a stock. But... it keeps happening over and over. Why do sunflower seeds rotate in the Golden Ratio (part of the Fibonacci sequence), why do bees reproduce in the Golden Ratio? I don't know, but doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result is the closest I've ever come to a definition of stupidity.

I can't say the same with the way this stock trades. Way too much volatility for my liking to hold. If it gets close to 500 I'm going to sell.

Apple is very underrated IMO
I think it's going up to 700 again very soon
I'm glad I didn't sell at 450$

im with you northwestern, i sold off 25 shares this morning to puy more PM as it dipped into the high $92 range but I still have a ton of apple..... $700 would only be 16x earnings...so hope we get there by Next year iphone 6 or itv. For the record i think they need to make a cheap phone with all kinds of colors kinda like their old imac that brought them back to popularity.....that sounds like a smash hit waiting to happen with young kids

benny im not a trader or anything like yourself just simply a buy and hold type but what you posted is fascinating stuff for sure so you basically are saying when a stock hits bottom 23.6% higher is the resistance point? Very interesting never knew that.....so is it the 52 week low or what low do you use in your calculations?

basically where did the $460 come from as a resistance point?
