Big move is in the making, so long we stay above 5dma I am Bullish, just because now that we trades under 200ma 1min. and a penny before closing out all long stop I am very disappoint in Bulls. well, if she can not do it she can't, no short signal just yet per my signs.

What is your target on the downside here short term after this failed breakout.

should be larger than the tinted area, I think.
Hi Cobra,

Does your logic for this particular tinted area stem from looking at past down moves? It seems you are gauging how strong the market can sell (intraday) before Bulls fight back? Thanks in advance - I'm curious!
Yes, generally, in an uptrend, the push up gets weaker and weaker, while pullback gets stronger and stronger, so you can use the previous pullback size as reference. The same applies to downtrend. This is my theory, Cobra's law, maybe number 2. The number 1 Cobra's low is, well, some know and I'll say this later when it applies. :lol:

hmm, make this number 0 rule. it's not number 1. All the rules here are trading tips, so this is not very technical, may not count?

the is the 3rd intraday pullback, the previous 2 only had 1 leg, I don't believe this one has only 1 leg again. after all it's still the Earth, law of inertia should apply.

Difficult to trade as long as resistance is not broken - not good for shorts, not good for longs. Bye guys, I'm off for today.

Old man wants to pay more taxes. You should follow that too.

Does that mean you think we'll probably retest today's highs (or at least 1200) before coming back down and forming a double bottom? Is it safe to say the rebound is over and we're on the second leg down?
