Sold 9998, sl 1012, tp 9924 & stopped again. Should stop going against momentum really.

IMO you were a little early selling - the Dow was still going up and trying to break above its DP and it did so ~the time that you sold. Twenty mnutes later it made a new high for the day, just under MR1 and six minutes later it made a lower high in the 14:05 gmt bar.

Dax's high was 2 pts higher with lower momentum and its been falling since then...now back to its NYSE open levels...

Yeah was going too fast to catch a top, got it the 2nd time though on the retest and just closed... my tp was not realistic.

I banked too and then sold the pull back.

Walmart's being heavily sold and that's pulling the Dow down - now < 17000 cash. Just closed my last Dax short at ~S1

I suspect Dow will fall more - but I'm finished for today

Had to do the school run so missed all the fun. That short from the 30 min 100sma left some really nice candles on both the 1m and 2m charts, two beauty shooting stars on the 1m TF - I wonder if anyone traded off them?

Those were the candles I was talking about....and Dax's slightly higher high was one too - with significant momentum divergence

Yes, that was one nice set up for sure. Crazy pa though, H1 has got one full positive candle going straight up for 100 pips, and then the next straight down for 120. Dow looking very bearish now on H1/H2/H4 now that we've had that little pullback, looking like a full on sell now for the rest of this week - 16,670?

I am expecting the Dax to grind lower to at least the 50% Fib (9746) by 20-21 Oct. If we break the 50% and 61.8% Fibs, then I dare say new lows.
