well its still early in the day, but unless this makes its way back over 563....that was a bull trap breakout....you have to be really careful with the dow....

anyway neaxt key level is 309.....once 309 gets taken out.....the selling should intensify...
and watch that rsi....i have zoomed in to show it more clearly.....once that treadline support goes....th should be heading sub 24k again imvho....

Long 24359 150 stop.

I was long until 2:30. Just watching now without and open position. I have a feeling it might bounce back up again.

Thanks trendfriend, yesterday’s trade went very well and I followed you. I owe you one.
Sorry I couldn’t comment anything yesterday as I was locked out from my account.

I am afraid to say this has nothing to do with women and children being gassed and the so-called fee world. I think this is a fear play to get back in the game.
You need to go right back during the Bush times and see what really happened between Russia and the USA. Bush made a very big tactical mistake and underestimated the fear of the Russian, especially after hitting the Taliban – receiving a blank check (saw his sole and all of that) he used Russia and especially Putin at a time when all he had to do really was turn to his friends and say the cold war is over. I know Russia was brought into the G7 but the deal was poor and Russia kept getting ignored – the USA unfortunately assumed too much and got too big for his boots (again). Let’s face it, in Russia half of their population was killed by their own people and there was no one there to stop Stalin. Their approach is a fear based one also and you must never try to control them. They see globalization as a USA world domination project and let’s face it they do have a point.
The other major issue - which now brings in the fears of the USA side is how effective the Russian is at getting what he wants and after being cornered has proven once again it will do anything to get what it feels it deserves (cheap and high-quality arms) which in comparison to the USA hardware is a bargain and cheap as chips for the same effect. The USA knows it would struggle to compete against China and Russian arms sales going forwards and must rally its friends to block a very fast developing world platform from sidelining their influence. These transactions do make a lot of money for the central bankers to prop up the system which is not working and rotten but if you see major arms to countries the bonus is you become their protector and can ask serious favors.
Nope I think this is the USA and its partners, right now, are trying to reassert its dominance over world affairs and especially the international community for the above reasons. To protect its interests. Itw as really nice that they gave Russia and China a chance to get their acts together but as this ahs happened now I feel the West has an advantage.
What is also interesting is Russia cancelling its bond sale this week. The first green flag was S&P upgrading Russian debt and then the offer. Boom no deal after the offer of help, sanctions just stopped that, and the Rubble is in again freefall once more - A lesson for Russia if it thinks it can survive without the help of the more richer countries. The other issue is the trade war with China, the Chinese cannot complete and desperately rely on USA exports. To pay for its mess also.

Russia and China have been silly in thinking they could have pushed the West out of the honey pot. That in my view is where this went wrong. Russia and China knew the deal - it was very clear - you want to join the club then you need to make scarifies. They have clearly ignored that advise and what to change the global political landscape – probably a fairer playing field for all. They have done well so far but their plans will now get a lot harder. Trump is on the case after taking a while to get it. He certainly gets it now.

I am afraid to say this now needs to run its course and war is the last option to prove the ultimate point, who will be running the shots in the future. When it’s done and if we are still here alive, then we can all get back to living our hectic lives but what is about to happen is going to happen my friends. Its called push back to find a political solution and Syria is where it all started and so this could be where it all ends and a new civilization is born.
We have been fighting for some time now indirectly, so it’s a move to the high stages – its all on the table. A direct confrontation and I believe this will be the last major war of our time and the quickest!

Both DAX and DOW buy triggers breached , looking at the sell triggers of 24396 and 12394, if they break !!!!!!!!!!! Hope you got out with some profit if you went long early??

last fri was nasty as well...

today's fri the 13th!!

may well be even worse....

There's nothing wrong with a nasty Friday TF, good short!

this is going to get nasty today........imvho....

Banging on the 50sma........ will it break out from the break out...?
-------------

50 sma being hard as nails

Game changer from Iraq murders and Libya murders....

Syria is mentioned in the Bible as being center to a very big conflict, so is Russia, Turkey, China, Iran and the West/Israel.

We have the stage set.

There will be conflict involving Turkey, Russia, Iran and West/Israel mark our words.

The USA is mentioned in the Bible and so is the UK....... but not favorably we are afraid.

We do note that every time the children of God rebel against His authority they are captured and enslaved.

Together with the above we have the Free Mason agenda for the world. This involves conflict between 'Christian' and 'Islamic' nations. That is happening now.

Then the big one. Russia and China.

Hold on to your tin hats.

When Russia shoots down the Western flyers the markets will crack....

short at 563....try again here....

lets see....stop 100 for now...

They have the facts, but if they tell then there would be no case for war.

https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/944900/Syria-Assad-chemical-attack-Douma-Jaish-al-Islam-Kurds-YPG-Kurdistan

The attack was staged by the rebels who were in control of the area at the time, imo. dyor.

hahahaha.....just when everyone thinking long....its gonna dump it.....thats why we need at least a close above the t/line and 50 day ema line imvho....

if it breaks below 563,i i'm going to go short again...

lets see

FOMC Kaplan speech coming up - could go anywhere 24800 or back down to 24400...

Anyone else getting 'Blair-ja-vue' over the rush to go to war without hard facts?

For the record, for the new lads, when Iraq war ii broke out, the FTSE went through the roof.

S, looking to close 1 open long this arvo.

Triangles are very common patterns in the Wave 4 position.

If this is a triangle wave 4 correction from Jan high on US markets? Triangle waves are often related by Fibonacci multiples…

The Dow will have a D wave = 0.618x Wave B at approx 24900 there is also an ABC target at 25000, the S&P at 2720 the ABC target here is 2705

If this turns down soon an E wave to complete only needs retrace 25% to be valid of course it could be more, maybe it just goes up although must be unlikely

The larger timeframe chart as posted 13th March here…I am thinking the blue (iv) is a triangle obviously it’s a Red [1] and [2] at the bottom not a [1] and a [1] my mistake

just cacthing up here...wow...what a rally....
stopped of my short, for a small loss..............this looks strong....

Citigroup, Wells Fargo and J.P. Morgan Chase all reported quarterly earnings and revenue that surpassed analyst expectations.

-------------

Of course they did! Analysts what exactly are they but the sheep of the corporate to enhance their earnings achievements....

Banging on the 50sma........ will it break out from the break out...?

we like to help out.

Worship us.

We will free u
We will help u
We will please you

You could be correct. Its nearly overbought on the 4 hour now, not that that ever stops it. If you do try a short, nor don't even think about it!!

Dow high for today will be around 24880

shirley it will, up to 690 then down to 540 then back up later

Judging by yesterdays action it will have to consolidate for about 2 hours then make its move?

It has broken through the 24600 but way overbought, surely will not start at these levels?

24594 H AND 24341 L. for today.

DAX needs to break 12517, then onward s and upwards to 12550!!
DOW points to note: 24481, 24516, 24533, 24571, 24591, 24607, 24612, 24650.
Long until DOW Below 24485 then watch out!!

Good Luck all !!
You need it to beat these Markets at the moment!

always check your lines with a line chart... always..... candles are not reliable for accuracy... any trader worth their salt will know this.

Albeit current situation shows a breakout for a day trade.

Trendy is correct... a close will confirm either way.

We do not place trend lines on the wicks of candles... never ever uh uh no way jose ........

line chart baby all the way

We cannot answer direct questions pertaining to matters relating to Lord Barcap.

He is very smart.

He has been treated here very unfairly.

He could have helped many....many....many

Connecting the top of the wicks with a trendline shows that the breakout hasn't happened yet. If it had, which is what your chart shows, we'd surely know about it.

Is barcap involved in that site? Or are you?

no spend......not yet.....its getting closer.....but i can categorically say that breakout has not happened yet....
you could be right...but the breakout has not happened imvho....
the dow has a way of sucking everyone in....then.....dumping...

we need a CLOSE, on a end of day closing basis....and then it needs to hold above 24563 to confirm imvho....

that is the key number.....lets see...

DAX Buy 12427 up currently 83 points.
DOW Buy 24485 up 73 points .

Semajames is a g8 trader.... no need to teach it anything Trendy..... it is doing fine.... like wine in summertime under the blue sky with its feet up high...

We have a break:

NOTE: Always change your candles to a line chart and re-check the resistance.....

Here is the same chart but with a line....

https://www.screencast.com/t/1JhjQS6m5

You are welcome
We are great

Bow to us

12500 is a big number if it gets there very bullish in my opinion.
If the US banks give good first qtr results I think 25600 is on. Only ww3 will stop it.

Sorry Barcap post was only a windup, with respect, I know what a bad call feels like.

gold - daily

looks strong....short term target 1425...imvho...

ideal entry 1330...stop below 1300......

if it can get above 1370....opens up 1425.

Semaj, with respect.....don't worry about other folks positions.....imvho....

they may well see something you don't....

just my 2 cents...

trendfriend

How can a great entry be, my accounts say £10 a point, be
£5700 under water plus financing say £30 a day for say 3 weeks? = £630 plus Dow div's say 50 points = £500 Total estimate say - £6830.
Maybe he know's ww3 is about to start, it would in this household!!

dow- daily.
http://uk.advfn.com/p.php?pid=chartscreenshotshow&u=ohjjKWfLg94kxIh3xYA9AglWm7Ye0+qm/B3WnvjRF+0=

still short at 563......because that is a key level....and this market should move lower....because technically it's still in a down trend....

A break and hold above 563....changes that view....and means no more shorting imvho.....and no more stfr.....
Until then this is the ideal place to go short.....and i expect the market to come off...

The markets at a key level, lets see how it reacts....
