Looks like your going to get an inverted hangingman instead of a pin bro on the mrs. I want it myself since I jumped on her ass at 134.7

Interesting enough that I'd short the S&P.

looks like that short would have paid nice dividend now.

Remember this chart from earlier I posted. We've moved east enough now we're nearing this trendline. I would not be surprised to see this push us back north, maybe to even 654x-655x area. As I said before I will be a shorter at that price level with SL on the other side of 6589.

I kinda see this playing out like yesterday, except the opposite. Yesterday, after the US close, we went and made a new low in 634x area then shot north. This time, we could make a new move north to the 654x-655x area and fall on her face. I'm still short and I'm still long from the bottom.

EO....based on the 4H close we just got, what is your bias....if you don't mind?

We had a lower high...closed higher than the previous two candles but under normal circumstances we would call it a reversal candle would we not??????

EO....ased on the 4H close we just got, what is your bias....if you don't mind?
Major selling pressure! Look at my post above though to see what else I'm seeing. We have UK news coming out in 3hrs which could cause the rally into the next h4 candle to give us the short signal again. If I was not in a trade long or short right now, I would have a hard time going short at this price unless I was willing to have a 100 pip SL on the move. I'm not willing to have that kind of a SL with this being the end of month end of week.

Under normal circumstances, yes we would. Here's a h1 chart with another trendline I have on it. Kinda coincides with the m15 trendline I've posted as well. There's one on the h4 also.

THANKS EO
Anytime, I guess I can't call you bro, so we'll go with sis! You know how I like to sell up the wicks of the candles, this is one of those cases. I will be watching the h4 very closely along with the m15 for a possible break. I have this 654x-655x area though that I see as major resistance which if it holds would show the break north to be nothing more than an opportunity to pick up more sellers. Either way, no trade will be entered without a SL.

Does anyone know of a broker that will allow me to trade the DOW as a whole along the the S&P?
