Hi ZoomZ, you guys are confusing the newbies. Are you talking about the Alsi F or IG cash?

Thanks for the well reasoned reply A !-

and MACD of first graph is clear story (having trouble  relating to second graph though as too small ) I must go find seasonal chart covering of the easter weekend 

-- also chance that we fall less hard than SPX and DJI (unless e.g.  serious downgrade by rating agency etc)

Are we going to make it to the top of this channel? It's line comes in at 45200ish (TOP40F)...we will know next week!

 

On your question if we are going to fall less..think we're going to fall harder than they due to QE affecting us more...! :(

 

Resources on fire!

howdy roundtree...(by the way i like your trading style mate..seems spot on) man ..shoosh I am short....so waiting... we could spike higher than your 44044 though - dow should try a retest of 16300, and altho your call is accurate ceteris paribus and it seems spot on - we could see 44187.. 44237 287 cos the weak rand hogs think we must test previous weakness highs...so the commods alsi majors could take us higher than the channel... head fake us?? top gaps all closed....bottom gaps to close?? is the tech damage enough stateside?? dunno

I agree with you on the Dow; 16321 is how I see it. But there's a possibility of retracing to 16111 (to give the other kids a chance to play) before the push up to 16300. 

 

Regarding the ALSI, I can see 44187 being reached today. I know I should wait until then but I can't. My system strictly says I make no decision when it comes to trading. However, if we haven't reached 44044 by 14h30, I'll cancel the order and recalculate my entry, as that will be a sign that the banksters are looking for an all time high; an entry for a short for me, I guess.

 

Let's see. Happy days, brother.

a like minded individual I heard yesterday said ..'the best currency in the US right now is the DOW..' that's for blind bats who cannot see gold of course but ...if americans just buy physical they'll make do...fair dinkum...and as we did in 1999.... i am waiting for the london gold fixing debacle to be debunked...then we'll see gold at true value,not fake price. asia is working on this pronto..and good luck to them..my dough is with their bakers anyone that comprehends gold's real value of calculated vis a vis a gold standard (dollars value printed to circulation in gold per ounce) would know that this equates to a gold price of almost 35000 per ounce. yummy...prollem is at that value one won't find fresh water if one doesn''t know how to levitate.

i gotta say this..for the sake of frogs still being allowed to be been born all colours.... there is a channel commencing 2009 that takes alsi to 56 000 points. cof cof if the dow hyper inflates (i.e. dollar index falls below 72 onwards to 45 or lower) dow goes to 31000/33000 al al argentina anyone whom thinks the USD is to weaken should be long stocks....vice versa

at least the shorts have nervousness on their side...we never had that nervousness before the dow had it's recent Moses moment..so volatility could help us average down. we always make money..it's just getting the averages right. my call on rand strength for the long term is right however...not because we are a surplus economy at all...but because the USD is on life support and they can't pay the electricity bill. Brics rule. USD bully boy been expelled from school soon. And yellow stone gonna dust them off a little.

I took a burn on my previous short.

Was not nice. That is why I dont like trying to trade the longer term.

 

IMO, anyone short this market is in for a beating.

We will need some news event to give us a correction, if no news comes, I suspect that we will only get a reasonable correction just before US finishes up it tapering, so only in near the end of the year do I see a correction coming.

 

I dont see anything that changed the view of buying the dip.

 

Not even Ukraine issue can take us down, or so it seems.

switzerland tells me ..'deirs a rat in da kitchen....now wot's we gonna do.. we gonna kill dat rat dat's wot we gonna do..'

ZoomZ, what do you make of this price action? I see today's top at 44044. But the run up to that level is rather slow, which makes me slightly nervous. I've got an order up there waiting for these boys.

 

Good to have you back, brother.
