Willing to take a loss if it goes sour, waited for a drop at the open. Didn’t happen...

Monty, did you make it through unscathed?

Long on DOW 28720

will add to this position longs when 28750 is reached and when surpassed will add aggressively.
DOW closed the gap to last session close, and met my criteria for going long, this is not an intra day trade.
Make sure losses are small and profits are bigger!

Yikes we drop again. Hopefully this is just the Asian session dragging it down; not sure it is given Powell’s comments.

I hope WHO don’t call this a global emergency tomorrow, since it’s not given nobody outside of China has died from it.

That sucks. Was that your own decision or did you get closed out by the broker?

Looks like we're getting that push lower that I was looking for yesterday. Got long at 28600. Maybe a little premature...

The 28750 quarter did not hold, looks like retest, got long too, near the bottom. Retests are part of this game.
UP to the yesterday session close on cards, and very likely higher.
Corona virus might be a part over the weekend, market needs "excuses" for the moves.

You're right. I think this move lower is "because" the virus spread to India. If WHO declares an emergency, there will be a way bigger move down though....

WHO meet to confirm today and will confirm whether it’s a global issue. It’s not. But if they say that.. fuck.

There seems to be a double bottom on the 1hr and 4hr.

However, the market didn’t react to good earnings for Apple, Tesla, Microsoft plus Mexican trade deal and Brexit signing.

Come on...

Good news, a move down - for a while - than a smooth move up. Bad news - often reversed scenario.
This virus story might be with us for a while.
There is a nice gap on DOW to the upside atm, 28000 region is my initial PT before the weekend.

Hard SL well below 28500 just in case.

You mean 29.000?

I long from 28.777 and add on at 28.493. TP 28.950.

I can’t see any gaps? Do you have a pic?

I have checked charts that don’t offer out of hours trading, which shows higher highs and higher lows since the initial drop. Could be a positive.

Hi
Please read the PM, as I don't wish to cram this thread with basic concepts.
