Same as red or black on roulette , fundamentals and charts technicals what a joke , ok let's blame QE again.

 

Lol, i tend to agree with you to some extent. That's probably because, i clearly don't understand how the Senior traders use TA and FA effectively.

Well because we've traded so high already... there's also the possibility that some profit taking/consolidation could happen before Friday... just a temporary short opportunity.

you could be right , so could I , therefore as BC says it was a gamble - which proves his point.

There is no bad news on the calender until this Friday with the US retail sales and PPI inflation which should mean the ALSI should continue up for the next 2  1/2 days ...

 

my 2cents

Absolutely concur about overshooting 40000!

 

We are getting into the best months ahead for the markets so bulls going to charge ahead, things to look for:

 

Short opportunities:

 

Post futures close-out drop

November correction (seasonal)

 

Otherwise stay long or else your going to get burned as the double bottom made in April and July has upside till the 42 000 level!

 

Bullmarkets don't drop without a top, until that is clear ride the waves boys! B)

Today must be one of those days where you can see what happens in South Africa has very little effect on our market! Local financial news all negative and ALSI new record. Probably also one of the best performing indices for the year to date. Go ALSI!!!

Voel your chart scared me, I think you must go visit Ghwar!

  
 

Voel, something else to think about.
TA is not an exact science. And I think my chart has more points touching the trend line.

Well we just broke 38900 so are you long now?

It missed my stop by 2 points, i stick to my plan, if it hits my stop then its part of the trading plan. 

You have to be prepared to loose the money you trade. Before you put any trade don't think about the profit, think about how much you can loose and be willing to loose it.

That's why they say the market is a risky place, if trading was easy everyone will be rich

Well we just broke 38900 so are you long now?
