Bulls get ready to take off to new highs

 

This is a good setup for new highs.

This is a bear trap. Those who want to short can do that when it's hit 43300 and higher.

 

Longs can start jumping in from below 42600. We are entering a period of bullishness seasonally. 

March is one of the most bullish months of the year.

 

Bears can wait, they will get thier chance in a months time.

The better risk to reward trade will be the short one. But Bulls need to reach 43300 1st

 

Enjoy

Well ladies and gents, that seems to have been that (yesterday's lows of +- 42400s on J200) for a good low entry if you are gunning for the divi this Friday.

 

Or am I being too hasty? My line drawn in the sand is 42520 (J200 using IG). Below that, this breakdown is legit, above that, then all engines firing for uber highs soon. I am open to constructive feedback or crits!

Todays budget speech will decide..... will definitely be a cover up budget which will make rand strengthen... so catch 22 between going up and influence of a stronger pound!!! seems like another head or tail coin spin if you ask me!!

Does this graph have any significance to the ALSI and where it may be going, or does it just highlight the lack of foreign investment in the country...

We could be in a bull trap, with bulls expecting the market to go higher before a reversal and they keep buying as the market grinds lower...expect the unexpected   !

The US is weak atm.

 

That 1850 on S&P is the key number on worldwide indices.

 

Failure to break will cause a sell off

Or visa versa. I personally do not know if up or down atm, so am waiting .. (im?)patiently on the sideline.

 

US is recovering, or at least seemingly ready to propel up soon.

Hi Sunesis, who are the guys you recommend for international trading again? You did mention them before, but I can't find them now. Do they have Eastern countries' (Japan, China, Korea) shares/CFD's?

Bear traps happen after a high has been hit. You might say some long term traders have hit their targets at 43000 and took profit.

Short term trend is still bullish. Until it breaks below the middle bollinger line on daily, it's still bullish.

 

I would just like it to go higher so i can short this beast. At least it must hit 43300-500 for bears to start licking their fingers

So the smaller timeframes are starting to confirm this as well then, this drop sneaked upon most of us!

I suspect it will test the middle line soon and then maybe bounce.

Oh and im still short 42850.

I find trading like body surfing, catch the right one and you will make it all the way to the beach.

A small long would not hurt from 42500. It could be a bear trap.

 

When the Yankies wake up they might push it higher into the close. It's been the trend since last week.

 

Just put a stop around 42350
