Hi Collin
The midweek trading diary is great,but NOT at the expense of removing the weekend trading diary.
If we are choosing between 1 weekend trading diary OR 1 midweek trading diary, i vote for the weekend version please.

... I would argue for keeping both (so Colin can keep himself busy... I think he is a little slack in the winter months  )
The weekend diary should/could be a simple "follow up" to complete the story on what has been observed in the mid week diary plus a summary overview of overseas market development.
ps: if we can't have both, I would opt for the midweek diary. It is more useful in that we can act and observe what is being said in the diary the same/next day

I disagree Officer Holy Cow
"The weekend diary should/could be a simple "follow up" to complete the story on what has been observed in the mid week diary plus a summary overview of overseas market development."
Technically, the only Time the Global Market stops moving is ONLY on the week-end
This is really the only time one has available to do all the proper navigational sightings
Mid- week is for a day-to-day sightings and to do minor/major adjustments and tacks to enable you to survive for ONE more week
Sudden Sea-Changes are not Unknown in the Southern Oceans of the ASX so I do feel mid-week ocean pilot charts/alerts would be of great assistance
"Safety at Sea is Paramount"
As "The Wind Calls the Tune" I dont feel it has be set on a particular Day "Mid week"?
Salute and Gods' Speed
PS At Sea, we OFTEN see things we just don't believe!
But when somebody else sees the same
all of a sudden it becomes a lot more believable!

As the diary is for educational use only I see little benefit in a midweek edition. The weekend editions are a useful commentary on the state of the US and Aus markets. Probable future S and R levels are given along with remarks about possible trend confirmations or changes.

The problem with the midweek diary, is it is out of date by the time we read the diary and i presume most people make their decisions over the weekend for action to take in the following week.
Because there has been no weekend diary i am totally lost as to what to expect next week.
A midweek update of US,UK,Japan,Gold,and Oil would be a great help however for those midweek panic attacks and a rational view of what levels of support and resistance are in play.

Hello,Colin.
Your approach and effort to continuously to improve IC is much appreciated. Many thanks to you and your team.
If we must have only one Trading Diary i prefer the weekend edition as it gives me more time to contemplate your contemplate your writings.
Is it possible to have two weekly issues on e published on Wednesday ( Australia time) and one on Saturday?
I would like to learn much more of the knowledge that you have, Colin. Perhaps the mid week edition could be be more educational ( not restricted to current markets although they could be used) such as trading plans, turning points,use of indicators and suggested settings for short and intermediate term trading. In short educational material to best make practical use of the information available on IC ( which to a novice may be overwhelming and somewhat confusing). One example is the correct identification of patterns. A novice may think he or she has identified a symmetrical triangle or a cup and handle pattern but this in fact a wrong interpretation which an experienced technical analyst would not have made.
What do you think?
Regards
Robbo

Robbo amd Msparks,
I will trial a Wednesday and Monday morning update for the next few weeks. Educational material is much more detailed and takes longer to prepare -- I am considering publishing this in book form.
Regards, Colin

Colin, sounds good to me.
Having access to your profound knowledge will be very rewarding. I look forward to reading it.
In case you have not considered it, do you
intend to get some ideas from forum members on content and format?
Thanks again for your hard work and very useful output.
Regards
Robbo

Ahoy Admiral Colin
I noticed your Monday edition came in 6 minutes after the open
Bloody TOO Late for me !!!!!!!!!!
I found the winds blowing from all directions and that time the decks were being POOPED!! BIG TIME!
I almost turned the stern about 180 degrees to face those huge waves front on
It was certainly "No TIME" for me to read the poems of Virgil, our own Great Bard Duggie or your Antiquated and Delayed view of the state of World Economics and Practice drills in delayed/antiquated time
I am amazed to see you go on This Tack!
Educational it may-be but "To Whom?"
Practicable "It Is Not!"
I will try to read it tonite but if I don't get the chance I know it would have been out-of-date quicker than it was logged and studied !
This is like going from the Sublime to THE RIDICULOUS!
I take your word regarding the voting power of all your Landlubbing friends on this forum
I remain Amazed, Bewildered, and Astonished at such POOR seamanship and wish you well with your book
PS My only advice is that it would be much better to Start Planning a Cruise "WELL BEFORE 10.06 AEST " on a Monday Morning!!!

Captain Charles
Think of Colin as the one who offers calm advice in the midst of the storm
It follows a magnificent precedent on the Sea of Gallilee
I always take heart from Colin's insights
I pray for you to view the horizon rather than the choppy seas around you
Blessings and Peace

I come in peace to share my thoughts and to shine my candle light on possible long term opportunities

Ahoy Dear Sea-Cadet and Fr Hilarious 
It seems to me you once again you have missed the point
I am all for making a time to indulge in studies and education of the mind
I just think it should be done when the Global Exchange stops and takes a breather
EG On a Weekend
If you disagree with me then I dare you to fix another more UNDESIRABLE time than that contemplated
I can't think of any time worse except for maybe the Friday afternoon Long lunch
Bon Voyage and Gods' Speed
