a correction seen.... on a daily chart, the 200ema is incorrect.... because my chart was plotted for 3months only (the 55 ema and the 21 ema are correct)

I switched the daily to plot for 6 months instead of 3.

the correct 200 ema daily/6month chart is 13,243 ( and is very similar to the one in TC2007.

I plot my exponential moving averages using 1.61 (a Fibonnacci number multiplier)

we might see some support @ the 21 EMA / WEEKLY = 13,435 but who knows if the bulls are going to save this level, with all that carnage that we've seen and at that fast rate!

bulls are trying to fight this market in holding the 21 EMA /Weekly of 14,435. because that low today was 13,452. Just sit pretty "with your remote in hand"and watch the espectacle!

Were back to $95 oil .... 

Gold is trading at $806 ... an all time high ... I believe ...

... and the Euro has solidly broken the $1.45 mark ....

Come on Bernanke .... throw some more money at it .... the speculators have used nearly every dime of your "contributions" to drive up the prices of commodities ....

it will be detrimental to the market if price closes UNDER 13,435 which is the 21 EMA  (((((WEEKLY)))

I'm beginning to think that the bears came in for 30 minutes this morning ... just long enough for their boss to see that they were there .... and then they headed off to the Hamptons ....

They sure sure didn't head over to the NYMEX ... that's a "Bulls Only" facility right now ...

DJ-30 will open under the 21 EMA ((( WEEKLY))) 13,435 . so, its a 100% chance that the dow will see the 55 EMA (((WEEKLY))) of near 12,700!!   now. The question to ask is why people keep buying ? waiting patiently until you get price rising above the 55 EMA hourly is the answer.  ;)

13,475 is todays low

currently, price is under the 55 EMA daily of 13,645

13,232 is the 200 EMA daily and thats the first step heading lower.


on Weekly charts:

13,455 is the 21 EMA  (look how close todays low is from this level.)

12,812 is the 55 EMA  and thats is the second step heading lower.

11,487 is the 200EMA  and this is the real long-term low levels (if reached, this market would be in a full-bear mode (like the 1966-1982 era)   ;)

This morning it seems as though we just feel back to bottom trendline of the "uptrending consolidation in a downtrend" ...

But now ... we have broken that lower trendline ...

Hrm, looks like 13.6k has been offering pretty strong resistance, but do you think it'll become support for a launch back upwards?  Or that it'll just be a matter of time before the Dow goes south again?

yesterdays late move was like a mouse trap, it stopped at the dailys 55 ema near 13,650.

and this morning is the begining of the "snowball effect" gold is out of whack, oil is at 98 and GM threw a monkey wrench with such a dissapointment. so, what happened with cisco's earnings, was it yesterdays? 12,800 very soon

I must say ... tha this has been a more "orderly" readjustment than any I ever seen ...

Backing and filling at every stage ....

But .... unfortunately ... I can't help but feel that this means the same thing ... as it would in an uptrend ...

And ... until we see fear ... it just ain't gonna be over ...

Why so much empahsis on the 30 stocks of the DOW? The Wilshire 5000 index used to be made up of 5,000 stocks and now it exceeds 6,700 stocks. THAT seems to be a much better indicator by which to measure market performance.

Certainly I agree with the idea that the dow on not a good indicator, but besides that.  What is up with all the colorful charts and lights.
Do you really need all of that to see where the market may be headed? - besides that it is non-sense to predict..
By the time you get done painting all the beautiful colors in your screen and predicting direction I have probably been back and forth a few times on any particular trade.
Do you guys actually trade or just paint beautiful colors on the screens?
Never seen such a beautiful screens - do they actually make any money for you?  Just wondering to start taking some painting lessons.

first of all, thanks for reading and forming your opinion. Everyone have the way to look charts, to visualize, backtest  (to what really worked in the past with diff. settings). When I see an Indicator, I want it to talk to me back, to make a statement  (pinch my arm ) so I can react, make change in my portfolio and let everyone know so everyone to take heed of whats comin'. 

for example, I'm 100% cash with my portfolio and 403b since Oct 10th @ 2pm (its posted in this forum). to ber explicit, I sold my Fidelity Telecom at 61.05 and now , I'm patiently waiting for when to jump back in cheaper (its 54.30 now). I'm not shorting right now (I could Ultra Short ETF's but I'm not 100% comfortable, still researching). thanks, Signaltap2

Rut-roh ....

The natives are getting "testy" ....

Doesn't sound like the kind of "happiness" that comes from successful trading days ... now does it ?

Keep up the good work signaltap2 -- let the detractors have their day, but ultimately this forum's a place to keep ourselves accountable to our style of investing/TA, and learn from others as well (which I have quite a bit from your market commentary, which I try to given your good track record of these things).

And to the detractors, at the end of the day fundamental analysis, TA, pretty colors, wavy lines, and other stock voodoo really is just about leveraging info/correlation to make profitable investment decisions over various time frames.  As long as a predictive statement's presented along with a feasible investment tool (stocks, options, etc), I'd personally be receptive to 'em all.

Let's make money together, cheers! :)
