ASX Heat Map

Here's a very useful site http://www.digitallook.com/ 
I've always wanted to see a heat map of the Australian Market but had not found one until now.
To see the ASX 100, ASX 200 or All Ords Heat map go to:
Research
Visual Tools
Market Maps
Heat Map
Then select the settings you want.
Here's a screen shot of the ASX 100 Heat Map today..
Lots of other useful tools on this website.

Jesse Livermore

I like the quote in Colin Twiggs latest Trading Diary email:

Don't take action with a trade until the market, itself, confirms your opinion.
Being a little late in a trade is insurance that your opinion is correct.
In other words, don't be an impatient trader.
