Long 33504 For Scalp 60 points

 

Only hope now is a bit of window dressing at the end of the day. And hope in the markets is never a good thing

The mark of a professional, however, sounds like this:

         It is my fault.  I traded this position too large for my account size.

         It is my fault.  I didn’t stick to my own risk parameters.

Ok, here is my play and reasons:

 

It is OPEX week in the US and normally the underlying trend persist until friday, so the downtrend will continue until then, the Russell is lagging the SPX bigtime and that means a big whack down in the states are upon us..!

 

On the TOP40 she is making a huge bearish engulfing candle today that should also lead to a big whack tomorrow into friday and confirm that impulsive move down to end the downphase, that target is 32670 (double top made).

 

From next week the bulltrend will resume and make new highs, as the resources and retailers will lead, financials was strong through-out this healthy correction saying no end to this bullmarket yet.(Q3 also still in the system)

 

Thus friday afternoon will be an excellent opportunity to go long and stay long!!!!!

 

I am now short into friday!

Contemplating my options

We have bounced off 33 700, and the downturn looks as if it can be the start of some legs down. If not, the 33 660ish support must hold. Going to sit on hands and see what unfolds. Not confident that support will hold, might then see Lekkerry's test of lower down. DJ futures also very red.

Above as seen on 5 min chart IGM.

Now, if I still had said long, I would set my SL now to the entry point (minus 20 or so points) and have the knowledge it could have been much worse, but no this time.

Crunch-time: ALSI @ 33700 (barely, but there). Now a little further (confirmation) push north and longs are on!

Seems like some unconfirmed news about a bomb blast in Israel send markets plunging this morning after they opened?????

 

Anyone got news on this? If untrue we make a nice reversal up candle later today!!

bomb blasts in Israel affecting international markets - dont think so as bombs and rockets have been so common place in Israel for years.
