Post by juankim »

Hi Cobra & gang,

Been lurking for a while and learned a whole bunch so much thanks to all your collaboration/contributions. Recently registered and wanted to contribute something in hopes it may be of value to somebody else.

FYI I am more of a swing trader (days to weeks timeframe)... don't have the constitution to survive/thrive in day trading... so for those who are successful at it, much kudos!

As such, I've been studying the chart from Mid 2008 to 2009 to glean clues as to *potential* market patterns to serve as a *possible* road map.

Anyhow, from what I can infer, IMHO it looks like currently we are approximating the move around early Nov of 2008. If anyone feels like I'm way off the base, please do reply so as to help me at the least further sharpen my basis if not persuade me of a better interpretation.

Thanks!

Are these day trader support/resistance you've drawn based on pivots?

Thanks,

No, they are based on No. of lotes ( futures contract )been traded at this area and based on the time that the index spent at this area ( this area were the batle place for short term bull/bear fight for hours and they spent monye and time to control these areas). And a smart trader can take advantage from this valuable information. I attached a screen shot live now and you can see clearly how the batle still going on at this area even Friday they fight on this area for hours and still bull try to defend it ( look at the contract value at 11444 and a couple pips around it 8-)

i think it's all the retailers bidding appl up before their earnings. aapl has been sell the news type of earnings play the last few times. i may do the same here at the end of the day.
Short wednesday morning or a bit later in the week because OE on friday. Easy $$ since its at top of BB daily. Can't lose on this swing trade.

SPY looks like a huge bear flag... I wouldn't mind a 120 retest today.

Thursday gap support so far held up good, but I see bear flag over it.

My god, it did turn around at 61.8%. Let's see if it follows through. Will update with eur, crude, copper
Copper is leading the rebound and so far it's in a uptrend now since 9:55AM
Crude and Eur has now joined copper in the rebound camp. Looks like SPY is also rebounding quite well. Seems heavy resistance at 1212-1213.
