Welcome to the recap of today's MarketWatchers LIVE show, your antidote for the CNBC/FBN lunchtime talking heads. Our show is devoted to technical analysis of the stock market with live market updates and analysis of hot symbols. The show runs throughout the day on StockCharts TV; you can also find the latest episodes on the YouTube StockCharts channel here.

Information abounds in our Monday-through-Friday 12:00p - 1:30p shows, but the MWL Blog will give you summary slides and time stamps for viewing later. Be sure and check out the MarketWatchers LIVE ChartList for the 10 in 10 charts.
