Well in the end I should have stayed short as the next candle confirmed it but that prior one still said long to me. Once broken 212.20 though it was an easy clear run to 210.66 for sure.

 

Unlucky cowpip, what made you go long there?

 

Short from 212.08 in the end (as visable on the chart)

 

closed short @ 210.93 for +115

 

long from @ 210.99

No kidding. Sheesh... I couldn't wait for that last 4-hour candle to form before hitting the hay, and I must have been too tired to act properly. It was screaming short at me. Sigh...

 

I'm glad you finally nailed the direction right.

 

Note to self (again): Don't make decisions when you're tired.

I'm long from 110.74 following the hammer on the 15-min rejection at support. There has been some nice buying down here during the last few hours. Let's see if it continues.

lol! That's why I have my way of trading so simple its a case of yes or no and no major decisions need to be made. I just need to remember to look at the right bleedin charts!

Wasp, what is the purpose of your short horizontal lines in your charts? They're obvious S/R, but I can't figure out why they're not long lines as well.

 

Edit: Oh crap - there I go again. This probably should have been posted in the other thread. Sorry about that.

No problems but, on the other thread, can you tell me what exactly you mean? If its the short S/R (not all way across screen, they are just there for information, I don't use them to base decisions).

Closed my long for +43 and now short at 211.25. Stop at 211.68. Why? Seemed like a decent place to reverse at the short-term resistance zone following that rejection off of the 61% fib. Trend is still down, and consolidation is likely to occur, so I'm trying to play the waves. If my stop is hit, that'll signal a decent change in trend.

Ok, let's try this one more time from a slightly better location... short from 211.47, stop at 68.

 

This has been a butch of a ride... moved stop up to 92 to avoid FOMC news spike and associated "noise." Still short from 47.

I neglected to mention I scratched for -21 and I'm short again from 212.04. What I thought would be resistance around 211.60 (roughly the 61% fib) was too weak. Should have known.

Out for -50

 

Long @ 212.45

 

If this market doesn't start picking up I will be taking a break again. This isn't worth getting out of bed for.

Agreed. I'm out at -40 and long at 212.31.

I don't like what I'm seeing. Price has been strongly rejected when above 20 and is now being resisted below 20... I've scratched (AGAIN!) for -23 and am short at 212.09.

Staying long myself, the resistance met can be seen on a 15 minute chart quite clearly but I am sticking with the larger view and think we will be heading up again personally.

Failure to break the 30-min inside bar would confirm your thinking.

    • 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.
