Here is my short term target, 125, 123, 120. we can have a good rebound at any of these price levels. the selling on Friday was so strong that only thing will turn this down trend to up in short term is a huge gap up on Tuesday.

I don't trade GLD but will 130 be of interest to anyone? that's what it looks to be at the moment. long term out look is sure shaky on GLD

On King Green back, we are coming so far from the bottom, but pricing level never recover to confirm up, I trade UUP so break out is my bet.

tonight just chill out with the movie : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jQoScJFNj0
Happy New Year KeiZai

Selling pressure is high at AAPL, sell-able rally until new high is taken out. OK, I am done having too much time on my hand.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL COBRA PEOPLE

Al Dente’s New Year’s Market Resolutions 2012

1) Don’t fight price or volume
2) Tweak or banish indicators that are liars. Identify truthful indicators and stay with them
3) Trust canaries and divergences that have signaled turns in the past, but give them time to work out
4) Don’t underestimate the power of the bulls aka short-covering bears (borrowed from Cobra)
5) Don’t underestimate the power of China
6) During a market rally, avoid zerohedge. During a market decline, okay to check zerohedge
7) Put all kool-aid posters who lack verifiable chart evidence or lack a credible link on IGNOR list
8) Trust the pragmatic wisdom of Cobra
9) This time is not different

What does it tell you when your MA ribbons compress/tighten and eventually come together to form almost a single line?

I believe it is the same as Guppy MMA. It indicates a trend change in progress. Educate me BB.

Happy new year Dr. Al

tight band in Ribbon or BB signal a trend change is in the making, but the reaction to this environment could be very volatile. a tight BB+tight ribbons around 5DMA like we are having now is very unpredictable it could swing either side real fast, but I got help from RSI to guide me which side should I bet on, this time RSI<50 so I will go with the down side bet.

Dear Baron von Ribbons
Thanks BB, that’s what I keep seeing
BTW: Do you mind if I “borrow” your ribbons, they’re sooooooo pretty, just like you

1. This is what I'm watching like a hawk. eur/usd bounced at horizontal support 1.28732 hence we got the 1-day MAD on 12/29/2011

2. RSI Daily chart positive divergence. Why this is huge? I already checked and the last time there's a RSI positive divergence on the daily chart is when Moses received the 10 commandments from God (well, that's how long it has been, lol)

3. Once eur/usd breaks the down channel, we will see SPX rallies like there's no tomorrow

4. Commercial traders are heavily long EURO while non-commercial traders are heavily short EURO. I received this tip from someone on Daneric site to confirm my belief on the eur/usd about to rally hard (http://www.cftc.gov/dea/options/deacmesof.htm)

I am holding a few spy puts over the holiday weekend. Need comments and suggestions from y'all. Happy New Year everyone!

Any thing is free here, feel free to do what you want with it. too much info is not always good some times, I try to keep my chart simple and clean as possible and my FA bias to the minimum.

I see your new year resolutions, well, here's mine: 1. Trade what's in front of me, if I can not tell what it is just walk away, keep FA bias to the minimum.

Hi AL,
I´m not sure if the quality is good enough for you, try it: http://www.ipeepo.com/margincall.html
Thanks and a happy new year to you too

P.S: best of luck with your resolutions ;)

I would use DBV over Eur/usd. if you want to see the liquidity side of thing.

Anyone here paying attention to DAX, who could give me some input on whether it leads or lags spx.. Quite a huge gain today which may imply a gap up tomorrow on the spx?

Thanks for all your insightful comments, may 2012 be a prosperous year for all!

PAGING NDD: Cobra usually notes that DAX leads these days
EU PMI reported slightly up this morning according to Reuters:
http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/01/ ... 6220120102
Also click on the financial sector link below for Ned Davis comments on US banks vs EU banks

PAGING OTHERS: Everyone has noticed that the comsumer staples sector has a bullish percent currently at 85%.
Here is a brief Ned Davis Research update on the XLP sector
http://screencast.com/t/ZyE1M7uMy3

and the financial sector:
“…(Watch for the relative performance of Financials and European Banks to breakout of their trend channels.) For now, however, we continue to side with the weak tape, given growing risks to the economy and euro-zone banks…”
http://screencast.com/t/SSMVw5nmfD7v

and the energy sector:
(containing this one-liner especially for Baron von Ung: “Natural gas is trading at an historic discount to crude oil at 29:1.”)
