took the short at 25972.3
my stop is way high....but i may cut it out if 26050 goes....

lets see...

i think 26,000 area....give or take 50 or so points....
i think that's the key atm imvho....
resistance and down trendline is around there on the hourly....

going to add there if we hit that number during market hours....

It’s proper yo-yo at the moment.....lol
It’s filled the gap resistance at 25750, well 25741, missed my perfect entry by 9 points...
I’ve deleted that short order now,,,,,but have gone short from around 25550 ish area....but only a tiny bet of 30p a point...lol...

moved stop up to stay in here....small position, so looking to add another short.... i think this is going down imvho....maybe a couple of days of up first though...

closed long and short now at 25552.5
stop 25850 for now....

From looks of it , the Dow maybe coming down 500 points from fridays close.....
I’m looking to get short again but need a rally to do that ...
Far as Im Concerned we have already started the bear market..Shorts are the only way forward unless the highs gets taken out...
The media are always late to the party but once they get involved then likely will be huge panic sells...
I’m expecting the markets to correct for around 6-9 months and then the once in a life time opportunity will come.
For people who are not good at trading,,,,,,,,look to buy funds at that time....Hargreaves Lansdown wealth 50 is a good starting point...

looking at this in longer time frames as well.....someone i follow was looking at lower on the indices. I think i have to agree now..having looked closely at this...
Does seem that the rally on Friday may well be a mid move consolidation, as the market is very oversold..... before another leg lower....
This could well drop down to around 183500 area imvho

lets see but i'm going to close my long and look to short the rallies.....Fridays support level and the 200 day ema line on the weekly are key now imvho....once they fail i think this should drop quickly again.

going to close my long...and short only for the coming weeks...

Hammer!!

The last 15 mins it moved 600 points creating a hammer....
still be careful thou as any bad news over the weekend could be bad..
ive closed all my positions today.If the dow opens above 25500 that could be a possible 123 low formation based on hourly chart..



this is a 1 min chart...been trading this all day...crazy moves

..and then i went long on gold ……lol
fingers crossed

Nearly stopped me out...

Rallied into the close. Looks like a hammer candle to finish.
I think this will rally next week....let’s see...

also the dow is now well oversold....

to go long

uk.advfn.com/p.php?pid=chartscreenshotsh...ibObI2hVNT0RoQgTM%3D

bounced perfectly form this support June 2019 support at 24695.

I think that is the line in sand now for the dow....imvho...

anyway i'm long at 25328.9
stop 24650.

long term position intend to hold...so lets see....

atb, wdik, dyor,

I got tempted here!

Nice to see you again.

I would not be buying any shares or funds for the time being as the bear market has just started and best time to look to buy some will be around 6-9 months time. There is just way to much negative news out there to sustain any bounces.
remo

Good Morning All - It has been a while - the XTA and GKP days seem like a lifetime ago Smiley - Markets looking interesting so thought I would drop in.

Had a fantastic year trading Gold Funds in my Aviva Pension last year - banking a nice 52% growth in the pot - currently in 90% cash although bought 10% of US and UK tracker funds yesterday to try to catch some of the dead cat bounce

im still short...but should have just left my original positions opened instead of trying to be smart...lol...

Big picture,Monthly Dow chart with fibs & main trendline




Weekly Dow chart

I’ve already closed my shorts from earlier...now just trading in and out....as expecting a bit of rebound as it’s moved so much down...
Dow is respecting all technical tricks currently....I suppose that’s the only way to trade it when it’s like this...
I closed my shorts once I saw a hammer formed on the hourly and then waited to go long half way down the hammer...
Closed that long for 400 point profit.....then I went short...currently short but looking at going long again...lol

yeah way too risky....
with the dow expect the unexpected....
wouldn't be a big surprise to see it close up imvho....
certainly not risking any of my cash finding out!

be careful with trading the dow as the swings are massive both ways so stops will be taken out easily if you try and enter.
Only for the crazy people...

The fib level to watch is at 24100 as that's the 23.6 fib level of the total bull market we have had, also the medium term trend line is at 24267 currently so they should hold the down move on a first attempt basis.
The main trendline is at 20700.
I suspect this downward move may stall at the fib level and trendline as that's got a lot of support there.

Support levels on the way down....25743,,,,,,25339,,,,24680,,,,,,24267 (trendline),,,,,24100 (23.6fib)
Now there are a loads of resistance on the way back up now created by gaps...

im short on the dow and will look to add to shorts unless something big changes things...cant see that currently

It’s looking real nasty out there...can’t see any levels of support near by for the Dow...
Will try and figure out some areas later

getting dumped....
good call Remo!

Bulls vs Bears shootout....
Watch the last hour imvho...
Rally and it’s the end of this p/b
Sell off and this dump is going to get real nasty ....
I still think this is going straight back up... but let’s see...27000 is the key number in my opinion and it looks a bear trap break below today....

The Dow just respected its 200 ma and turned down rapidly....was up 400 points and now almost negative...
I added shorts with a 100 point stop....lol....
It respected technicals perfectly...
Sorry away from computer...would have shown charts....will post later...




You can see the horizontal support of the gap and the 200ema at the same point gave this area major resistance

Huge gap down below the Aug trend channel....which is giving the bears strength....
27489 is the key level....if that goes....could see real panic

Until then this could easily bounce back imvho....

This could be the day that starts the bear market off."?.....
Dow coming down 850 points currently.....

I think this index is getting ready for a down move soon....but I’m suprised it’s still so high considering how long this bull market has been going..

Just looking at this....
Perfect trend channel bounce yesterday...totake it back above the key 200 day ema line...

Is this current p/b over?

I'm not a convinced Bull atm....in fact if your long you would be nervous imho...

Is that not a island reversal??
was the rally yesterday just a retest of the 200 day ema line?

I think this is going down further imvho...i'm watching it closely, waiting to see if that channel does break down...25750 i make the level....
so a lower low could well be the signal to short the brains out of this imho...

What do you folks think??

atb, wdik, dyor,

This looks like its gonna breakout???
one to watch

i was in a rush earlier...the numbers are no correct...i will get these numbers right at some point : lol

200 day ema line at 25357....and this has just gapped below that level...

the 1,23 high...or lower low level is 23218....

uk.advfn.com/p.php?pid=chartscreenshotsh...zymGig3t9Thvuerkg%3D

watch this today(and this week)2 key levels being tested....

inevitably the ftse will follow....this can off course bounce from here...but the setup looks bearish big style...

i'm all cash atm...mainly because i keep getting stopped out over last few weeks!
think might be wise to wait for a big p/b before getting on the long side on stocks again?

lets see how she rolls...

Dow Jones up by 1000 points ...!!!

Down 800 points now

broken the Trend line from 2016, but then went up above it & tested it again, will the trenline hold againg? double top Jan18/oct18

well this is intriguingly poised....i thought it was going to get a real stuffing on Friday...but it actually rallied a tad, but is was still off some 300 points....and it's certainly not out of the woods yet...but i think caution in taking positions here fornow, while we get a clearer direction for this week...

Will it go up or down now??
Bulls will point out a bullish div on the rsi...and this has already dropped approx 10%...so maybe back up now?

Bears will point out the l/l , and the first real close below the 200 day ema line for around 2 years...
I think as things stand, its a little bit in no man land atm...a rally back above the 200 day ema line...and off we go again...
A new lower low...calls for a continuation of the downside imvho...

atb, wdik, dyor,
trendfriend

It’s battling with the trend line based of the spreadbetting charts currently..A finish below the trend line could send this a lot lower...But a finish above could signal a move back to test the 200ma again...

Big dump on the way imvho...certainly looks set for it...

270 or so points down atm....i think it could well be 1000 points down by the close....

Black Friday today....

Yesterday this back tested the 200 ma perfectly on the Dow based on spredbetting charts, normal charts also finished below .

Interesting day ahead for the Dow.

A little off topic, but I don't like how the Nasdaq Composite
.IXIC (INDEXNASDAQ) has broken it's trend line & today's open it is dropping quite a bit!

off cousrse we must wait to see how this opens....and trades today...
going by the futures atm....this will gap below the 200 day ema line line currently 24971....as well confirming a 1,2,3 high/lower low...as remo pointed out below...that in itself is indicative of whats to come here...

while below the 200 day ema line...no longs here...only selling the rallies imvho...

lets see

There is a massive 123 high formation on this.
24896 is the level to watch on this as a break below this and down she goes.
I’ll post chart latter as away from computer.

the trade was the short to the 200 day ema line....on the break of the wedge/channel form yesterday...then long again at the 200 day....
the short bounced off that level almost perfectly....

question is will that level hold??? im not confident with a long here tbh...

i got a feeling this last hour will be nasty imvho...lets see

where is the DOW in regard to Elliot waves? Have we Completed all the 5 Major UP waves back from 2009 or are we in the last leg up still?

uk.advfn.com/p.php?pid=chartscreenshotsh...7QSdvFRDO6D2Fsw7Q%3D

this has broken this channel from july...and the 50 day ema line today....could well possibly fall another 1000 points in the coming days to the 200 day ema line...
so while below 26035... most likely more down side to come here....

My dow chart pretty simliar to yours TF

As long as its not a big bear trap then lower we go ...
