It is for the most part a coin toss.<br /><br />Personally I've found this to be pretty much true. In order to get any edge you need to add sentiment, money flows and cycles to TA and even then it isn't going to be a huge edge.Toby Connorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07774977275885524428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179384084412903332.post-26296327888483383862010-07-05T23:04:25.618-07:002010-07-05T23:04:25.618-07:00if the head & shoulders pattern's like tos...if the head & shoulders pattern's like tossing a coin, it means there's no pattern -- hilarious -- it shows there's no point in trying to fortell stock market actionhorace manoornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179384084412903332.post-79892487345173947302010-07-05T17:34:07.915-07:002010-07-05T17:34:07.915-07:00I agree with this contrarian view because anotherw...I agree with this contrarian view because anotherwell known market timer is predicting that the market will ralley through 2011, but at a more moderate paceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179384084412903332.post-12784692129602849612010-07-04T06:50:40.011-07:002010-07-04T06:50:40.011-07:00You've got it backwards...we're on the bri...You've got it backwards...we're on the brink of collapse.<br /><br />Seriously, we're on the brink of war, with the govt buying nearly all our Treasury Bonds (to keep the rates low)...I could go on.<br /><br />It's a managed market, not a free one.

If the dollar continues it decline, that should give stocks another reason to rally.<br /><br />With the SPX dropping for 10 days, Gold demonstrated good strength but eventually did put in a swing high on Monday. <br />It looks like we are getting a correction in Gold, the dollar is breaking down, and the stock market is (I guess) close to putting in an intermediate low.<br /><br />With that in mind I was looking at some PM’s. I am considering some AGQ., figuring it is suppose to trade at 2 times that of silver and UGL, which is suppose to trade at 2 times gold.<br /><br />But after studying both charts, with SILVER behind AGQ candlesticks and GOLD behind UGL’s candlesticks, I find that both AGQ & UGL did not trade at 2 times.<br />In fact, they both underperformed (at times) their respective underlying metal.<br /><br />(See Charts)<br />http://i47.tinypic.com/2ex0ys9.png<br />http://i46.tinypic.com/30wqqgk.png<br /><br /><br />I wanted to ask if you noticed this on AGQ & UGL.? Are these two ETF’s strictly for day traders?<br /><br />I think I’ll just add more SLW & GSS.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179384084412903332.post-34104353209243789612010-07-03T10:40:14.971-07:002010-07-03T10:40:14.971-07:00Wrong Again.Wrong Again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179384084412903332.post-5045584991173125622010-07-03T05:56:32.487-07:002010-07-03T05:56:32.487-07:00LOL it sounds like a newbie is very heavily levera...LOL it sounds like a newbie is very heavily leveraged on the short side and takes offense to anyone with an opposing view.<br /><br />Leverage kills my friend.

I've repeatedly warned everyone not to trade the market, long or short and only buy PM.<br /><br />It's the only market with the safety net of a secular bull under it.<br /><br />But if you insist on wasting your time and money trying to short the market at these levels good luck. You are betting on another credit market collapse then.

Am I correct in saying that the 1010 level on the SPX is also the 38% retracement of the move DOWN from the 2007 high to the low of 666? That would make this a very significant level??

Both are up around 10 TIMES since the lows. SLW has a clear 5 wave up pattern, and negative divergence on the MACD with a gigantic bearish engulfing candle on the weekly chart. Huge bearish engulfing weekly candle on the ANV chart as well. On the daily charts you can clearly see how both stocks were soundly rejected at the 22 level on high volume. Caveat emptor on those two stocks my friends, and the rest of the mining space in general for the near term. These stocks are about to consolidate for a while at best, but more likely are in for a nice little beat down in the near term.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179384084412903332.post-85201159360016352992010-07-02T19:55:09.088-07:002010-07-02T19:55:09.088-07:00Great Analysis!!

Instead they should move up their stops and focus on levels where the bear case will start to break down. If the market has entered a new downtrend, or is in the process of making a longer term top, there's nothing wrong with averaging into bearish positions.<br /><br />I also still see no reason to worry about getting long gold here since gold is still in a 5th wave with negative divergence on the MACD, and seasonally this is the weakest time for gold. Better just to step aside on gold and wait for a better buying opportunity.<br /><br />As for the dollar a secondary indicator on the dollar is the strength of the long term bond market. It would be odd if investors were moving lots of money into long term bonds yet the dollar was truly in jeopardy of making a new low. The chart of TLT looks very strong right now and as long as it remains strong the dollar is likely to break above 88 after this current consolidation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
