Its always nice when price reaches a Price Projection that is in confluence with other levels..... Its now an hour and a half since it was reached - a Bushy Hedge hit in Tom Williams-speak and we are waiting for the FOMC ... {image}
Surely never in doubt ?

Is it time to break the downtrend for this year and head for 14400?

Very interesting. I shall have to read up on MM. Here's my world from today. Seems to combine the range idea with trend, no?

And I am grateful to our friends on the other side of the pond for livening up the day with a couple of spunkfests after a rather tedious morning

Yes at a certain point they have to expand the daily range so its may be as simple as
Buy High
Sell Low

Well nothings ever that simple

GM chaps, here's my take on it. NQ is struggling with a major resistance - the 2% level above EMA800 on 30m. If that breaks the road is open to 14400. If not it may just be back to the 13750 area for fresh ammo.

Nices ones For guiding trading in terms of range, trend, extrems, etc, many different MAs may work. Islander likes WMA55 etc, whereas I like EMA50 in the same situations.

To the this raises the question of finding the "right" MA. Is there such as thing, or is it about fitting to personal taste? When it comes to predictive uses, aside from trading bas on PA, the answer may be relevant.

Dave, how would you compare MMLs with Camsrillas? The latter seem more useful for NQ.

Thanks Dave, you have given me and I guess Medici much to ponder.

I have been AFK all day and just back to my screens and couldn't refrain from posting my NQ M5 chart which has my first attempt at using MMs

On the M1 chart the Buy was clear after the NY Open in the 13:34 candle at the BRN.

38 mins later and up 251 pts the MM 8/8 level + the KwiOz PP were hit together with the 50 EMA band & the 1.286 Fib expansion .... all hit.!

Then 86 mins later the +1/8 MM & the 800 EMA at the 1.382 Fib expansion were all hit......wow!

Much food for thought so many thanks for your input
