Reaver's Incursion

Recommended Posts

Awesome info! Thanks for the comments Tin and Walter. Really helps open my eyes to other possibilities...which is one of the main purposes of this thread in the first place. Good stuff....much appreciated.

Looks like price broke through the lower bracket I was waiting for....I will re-evaluate my viewpoint tonight. Good learning experience for me....

 

 

Walter and Tin may have just picked a top!

 

This is why I need to be able to be at home...so I can take advantage and stay on top of smaller moves like this, etc instead of having to place trade positions mostly at the end of the day...not being able to watch intently enough can really limit agility and trading results....

 

But hey if I can still make it being handicapped in my trading due to my day job...then once I am able to pay even more attention...that in theory will help...but then again, maybe my having this type of distance from the market is what helps...

 

aahhh, one day soon...

I dont have access to futures data anymore, so I don't know what price did. If you want to place a short, watch for the next bear flag to form and short a lower high in the flag channel :)

Welcome to the forum saw.

 

While you seem to really like what Reaver has presented here, feel free to do the same. As you'll see in your time here, TL is a community of giving and receiving. You should start a thread and introduce yourself to the forum and tell us about your trading. What are you hoping to gain and provide the forum?

 

Once again, welcome to our little forum my friend.

So far no trades catch my eye....still watching wheat, but now, looks like a false breakout to the downside....reversion to the 5 day balance on decreasing volume...volatility just shit the bed too. Oh well, will keep an eye open and see what happens......

now you have to understand that on momentum conditions this is too risky thing to do... if you sense market is weak... (cycle conditions) then this false breaks work pretty good... cheers Walter.

Walter...that failed breakdown/breakout I wouldn't classify as high risk...I think it's a real low risk setup. You've got a nice area for a stop placement and when people see a failed pattern, those who got short are gonna have to cover and fuel a rally (in that particular trade's case). That's one of my most favorite setups to play.

Okay, looks like wheat dropped to 8184, well below the breakout point...one more major support level at about 8131 (approximate, nothing here is an exact science), and if that is breached....looks like a long drop may come around....but I am not in the business of predicting the future lol...I am just curious to see how a CT trade would have worked....wheat has tested the bracket two days in a row and made a solid break through support...so we'll see.

Yeah I agree....that would be quite a nice move...if the previous balance area limit gets broken...it may be a nice trade after all..

 

Like Stan Kroll said: they slide faster than they glide....so we'll see....

Well so far looks like the breakout to the downside didn't follow through...hit support at appx 8130 and bounced...Will take a look at all available info once I get my data squared away.

Price closed at 8284...below the downside breakout point...market is out of balance. Volatility increased significantly.....Nothing really new so far...

 

 

Reaver, can you eventually post a chart of that, got me curious... jejeje... cheers Walter.

Price tested the 5 day bracket on Monday, but closed within the bracket range...yesterday the price broke out, and bounced off September's bracket limit low......volatility greatly increased, but no significant change in volume....the longer term MMA seems like it may be getting ready to roll over. hmmm

 

If price breaks through this last support..it could be a long drop.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
