I've shorted the DOW at 11,990 and 12,250. I've taken profit on this position too. I started this position on the 28th of January. I was upside down for a while, but she's looking good now. The play in my original setup is the possiblity of double dip. The monthly candle will be a very important candle on the DOW close. A close like she is now or more bullish and I'll take some more profit and look to add to my short position when it goes back up to possibly 12,000 then looking for my next TP level around 11,300 if we haven't hit it this month....
Just had to dig up this March 17 post from EO and give credit where credit is due.

Hi guys , trying to apply the methodology from EO over here.

does this qualify to be 15m 35-50MA spike through ? (first red arrow)
But it didnt went back instead it went south to S1.

the tick looks good for long(do i have to wait for it to test the near S1 again before i reenter) if combinded with 15m 35-50MA spike through (PA touches the 35/50MA will be my TP level.)?

am i on the same language ???

In his earlier posts Eohater used to say, a full candle through the 35 and 50 was best but then said some wick was ok. I've found that they work best if you have a definite trend, then price makes a strong move back the other way and then take it the way of the original trend. They seem to work the best, but as with anything they don't always work.

Hey folks I hope all is well. I am going to make it a point to start posting back in here now that the summer is over. I thinkk 1.6280 will be important area tomorrow as well as 1.6445 area. 1.6445 was support now turned resistance and 1.6280 is a support area plus it lines up pretty good with my daily upward trend line.

I was starting to wonder what happened to you! I'm still around, slugging it out. Not sure about a lot of the others. Pippi and EO are probably too busy buying things that are not for sale.

Probably all waiting for the same thing, for everyone else to start posting regularly again.

I'd give anything for this thread to be like it was in its heyday, well before I joined the forum!

I'm still here, took most of the week off, needed a break from all this whipsaw action.

Now Bernanke delivers a dud, guess I'll wait until after Trichet speaks tomorrow. Looks like more consolidation to me.....

HOLLA
