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

All jokes aside, Bullish sentiment me says (!?) There are investors out there willing to stop this slide (even if only momentarily)!
You mos a BB man .....my IGM dallies show the bottom BB band being pushed down, with the next resistance level being 39 825 ish. Also on the weeklies, the BB MA has been breached. Now, either it may bounce off the BB lower band or continue downwards. The nature of the dally candle shows that bears is more in control, and together with the fact that the previous resistance level has been broken, the probability for some more downward action might hurt bullish sentiment... 
We now have the 2nd leg down on the dailies, already 4 red candles where the last one seems likely to have a close at the bottom. Lets see .....
Me not trading atm ... but my paper trading today would have bagged me 300 pips.....if it could only become that simple in my head ....no premature closing on paper

Watch DAX 9245 resistance... S&P likely to rally back to 1775-ish before retracing again. And then DOW 15620 level to watch.

Nice one for those who took longs below 40400.
Clap hands for yourselfs
My Long DAX from 9250 is making a lot of cash too.
Book half your profits, then stop to break even. Let the winners ride
Stops hit at least we got half profits booked.
Stops were at break even.

I think this might be the last of the 1775 on the S&P

you need to ask yourself why would they do that? if they can pickup bargains and avg down on what they have already they might just leave this for a bit. just my 2c

ok, my teacher told me that that bar I'm seeing on the dailies today, is called an indecision bar...

Been like this since last week; even upgraded my Telkom internet account over the weekend, but no real difference. Quite frustrating; unsure of levels/prices!
Well investing.com has not updated it futures quotes nor its indices since 13h10. Only looked at entering a trade now and got fright when US futures showed -0.2 on investing.com and green on IG. Same with FTSE - showed very green on IG and -0.25 on investing.com....
Need a million ASAP

It's time for it to go sideways with a upside bias. Buy now 40400 or lower
Stop 40000

Are you trading this, A?
Or still sitting out?

Nah, learned a hard lesson again end of December trading against the trend! 
Will short around that 41400 level if she gets there end of the week, but think going to be very zig zag until the last dive around the 21st!
See Tony Caldaro also have a 1680 target for the SPX deeper into Feb, the US don't have negative divergences yet on the weeklies so still think they will aim for a new final high in March (primary wave 5) and us that 42000 level again...will go long then!
