I dont think bail out will happen this year anyway. Its like the hero in the movie dying in the first 15 min, thats game over. market needs news raoidky t keep sekking news.We still have the US election to come ad on my astrological chart I have a very important period between 5th and 20th November which I mentioned a while ago. I expect a huge drop in indecies during this period.

Quite interesting. I'll think about doing it, but guess I need a tremendous confidence...



I have seen your USDCAD. Are you still holding the sell orders? I'm sure it's going to come down eventually, but I just don't have a stomach doing it...
No sir, closed my cad stacks as they entered my profit target. I take what the market gives and since my orders were tripped and price lingered awhile-I got out after the bear move.

GJ stays on a strong S/R. I think it's about to go up. A wrong idea??
edit: I see a divergence on daily, which points to downward...

In trading, you have to be defensive and aggressive at the same time

for me it is not a great idea, because:
it has to far away the TP.

US market closed,NFP weekend.

Until Thursday-Friday I would take max 40 pip TP, but better with 10 pip 4x.
I want to buy PATIENCE

What do you guys think about setting a limit sell at the blue box?
confluence:
fibx2, nice S/R

If this is a good entry, then, what's the TP?
fib 36/23?
or 0/23 area?

Looks ok, just watch Price Action around it. Also, I would delete the first set of fibs as the have been "reset". That is, price action has either penetrated 76.4 or gone through it. For me, that means that the previous SR isn't of any use. I added a chart for you to look at.

Great Chart Saxon! I am attaching mine here to show how I identify the uptrend/downtrend bias. In this case, when uptrend I use up swing fibs & S to go long and down swing fibs & R for TP.

Scary for all those who work with longer time frame Div.
This is DJ Weekly..
I've seen that chart on my thread . It's forming the pattern we talked a few weeks ago. For some reasons, I wanted to see a new top, but the pattern I wanted to see is already there on NASDAQ. So, I think we are going to see a long term bear market from here.

Thank you very much for the explanation.

I'm a bit confused about a fib for a minor swing.

You move a fib as a minor swing makes a new low (or high)?

Please check the attached charts and tell me if I understand the concept about fibo.

On this chart, you go long at fib 38 -- this fib is drawn on down trend.
But you suggest otherwise on the other chart.

I'm confused

I'm sure Saxon will address your question, but here is what I think:
There is no written law for these stuffs. Logically, you better go long on upswings, but if you look at charts and fibs long enough, you realize that all fibs are like magnet and play S/R regardless of the direction. Moreover, in that chart, you got Weekly Pivot and previous R now turned S at the exact same level. So you have a confluence of three levels, that makes the long trade justifiable.

As you said, you need to re-draw your fibs as price makes a new high/low.
