she can take so many shots of the the same bird or animal it goes on for quite a while , me , 5 minutes and i am ready to move on , so i keep busy , but i hate typing on that little phone .. my one finger i use just seems to hit all the keys i don't want and that autofill can drive me nuts at times with wrong words ....i will post todays shots as soon as i finish them
Second that regarding typing on a phone. Pure torture for me. Fast as anything on a computer keyboard. About as far down I'll go on typing is on an iPad or iPad mini. Phone is an absolute last resort.

I’ll ask you what I asked Vinny: have you tried Swype? (Quickpath on iOS)

i try to use the phone as little as possible .. usually i take my i-pad which is easier to type on . but some times out of desperation i will resort to it when i am on the go .

well gold is up now over 7k again since i rebought it , tlt is down though about .50% from where i bought . my inclination is to sell the gold but i am going to hold it a bit longer ...i guess that guarantees it goes down from here ha ha ha

It would be easier to follow if you standardized and expressed the 7K as a % move as well.

it looks like a 3700.00 difference from friday the 13th late afternoon to monday morning the 16th on the buy plus a few thousand on the sell on the 13th which was just bought the day before on the 12th . so all together about 6k from the 12th to the 16th but 2 of those days was a weekend , not bad for for clicking my mouse lol .

so i pocketed 6k and have everything back i had prior and that shows up another 8800 right now on the buy on the 16th . so 14,500 in profits in less than 2 weeks total
