Hi All, I think we are likely to be bullish for some time yet...Though being near the top of that 4H channel there is scope for retracement i reccon.

Finding it difficult today...on the sidelines.

I know what im missing out on though..the 5 0 clock bounces!
As price nears the 10 it obviously starts to move the ma.

The more i watch the more im seeing how it works..guess ill just have to trust it more as long as those ma's are pointing up! (or down)

I think so.
Yesterday, the positive report from Lowe's was pushing Dow up.
Todays Home Depot (which is bigger) reports positive too.
We'll see in 6 min.

If 15M candle will close above 5460, we may play bounce off 21ma

I am flat atm, because GU is in the middle of the channel

I had took a long earlier @ 5453 took profit and covered. Which she came back to get me.

Had a rough night (2hrs sleep) so I'm out for now and will check back in later on as long as I'm mentally awake.

Glad to hear folks are making pips.

Be careful... it could go either way at this point... 5500 is a big psychological level...

I am not buying into this top at the 5500 level! If it breaks a long on a pull back may be the ticket.

Flat and waiting! She looks quite top heavy to me.

I know it is har to see had to scrunch it up some.. But this is a 4hr channel we are back towards the top of the major channel.. If the price doesn't rise to much in the next hour could get a reversal candle on the 4 hr.. we will see what price gives us..
