Chaos Clinic Recap
Here are Al's comments
3:07 I'm done for the day. Thanks for coming. See you next week. Take a course
3:04 out for 0-no juice at all
3:02 passed the Moon T90 timeline; have Mars R0 and Venus V0 left
2:53 not a move to write home about :)
2:46 slow mover -stop to 1120, just under the 440
2:37 this little run up is right where the Fractal Grid said it should be; so my fitting of the eMylar overlay is good
2:36 stop to 1119, just under the 880 EXMA
2:35 now the EXMA's are diverging on the MTRainbow chart; bullish
2:30 note that trade now is mostly staying one side of the 110 EXMA, and on the MTRainbow chart the candles are white
2:24 in a dull market, the Fractal Grid is the eMylar of choice. It says hang tight.
2:22 note where I am now-if stopped, I have .25 for the day. That's why taking 3.5 early was good.
At first I got caught up in the excitement and tried for 9. But I came to my senses and took the 3.5
2:13 elected long 1121.25 stop 1118
2:11 on the MTRAinbow chart, the 440 and longer EXMA's are still up; watching for any acceleration
2:05 Dullness follows chaos, and chaos follows dullness
2:03 second trade a pass; now in the third trade window-have buy stop at 1121.25, adjusting to 1121.5
1:58 the SPBias has turned bullish-see the SPBias chart, left side of ListOfCharts page
1:53 440 EXMA is very flat; that may change after 14:30, when we often get some short covering
1:43 moving buy stop to 1121.25
1:41 the Fractal Grid is taught in the Chaos Trading Made Easy course.
1:40 I have placed a Fractal Grid chart in the Certified Chaos Trader's room.
This room is open to graduates of my four main trading courses. See http://moneytide.com->Courses for more.
1:34 1118 held, so it is a good place for a stop if I get elected long
1:32 looking bullish
1:27 on days where there are 3 trades, the middle one is often a pass
1:25 held up; not much juice
1:18 dipping into the trade time; waiting to see how we come out of it
1:09 putting a buy stop at 1121.5; if elected, my sell stop will be 1118
1:02 I'm not interested in selling-we've held up too long. I'm only interested in buying if we get above the Moon flux
12:59 coming to the Sun H0 timeline, then the Uranus U180 timeline; could change the tone
12:50 when the EXMA's are flat and tangled like now, one cannot trust the shorter EXMA's for signals; need to see real movement
12:40 on the MTRainbow chart, watch for the 440 and longer EXMA's to curl upward
12:34 I'm back; looks like next trade time may give a buy setup
12:15 taking a breakfast break
12:12 made it just above the Moon flux
11:57 we now have a higher low; it came off the red 880 EXMA; looks like we hold up
11:44 coming to Mercury timeline and the Moon flux crossover; watching to see if we can get above the Moon flux
11:31 getting ripples in the 110 EXMA with prices trading both sides of it- chop-stay out. Next trade time is 13:22
11:23 got another Hex pattern alert-decline stopped on Saturn, then bounce up to Mars/Venus, one corner of the hex
11:09 got enough buying to curl the 440 EXMA back up. This suggests the market at least holds up today
10:52 This is a countertrend rally following a thrust move; may see more decline later on
10:45 Looks like settling down into a trading range; I expected chop. Here it is
10:37 out for +3.25-don't like the stall; the 440 is flat
10:33 on the MTRainbow chart, trading below the white 440 EXMA; trying to be patient; not my strong suite
10:23 bounced up and found resistance on the Moon flux pair
10:16 getting a bit of a stall, but the 20 and 55 EXMA are down, and I have locked in a small profit, so I'm sitting
note that my stop is above the crossing yellow Moon flux lines on the SPSunMoonMEr cand Chaos Clinic charts
10:11 stop to 1121-range now 9 points-to Node +O270 electric field flux
10:08 trying for 9-got 5 pretty quickly; putting buy limit at 1112.5
10:04 on the MTRainbow chart prices penetrated the white 440 EXMA vertically, turning it down. Bearish for the day
10:03 stop to 1122, lock .5
9:59 Consumer sentiment worse than expected; note that prices weakened before the report
9:57 stop to 1124
9:53 sold 1122.5
9:52 putting buy stop at 1128
9:51 dropped to Mars +R000-watching for a 20/110 sell
9:47 getting a hex pattern alert- see Hex Wheels Today- set by Mercury, Mars/Venus, and Pluto/Node
9:43 early highs set by Node +O315. trading right on the 110 EXMA
9:40 Early trading up 9 points for yesterday's average; looks like choppy day with 5 Tide times
Trade times 09:57, 13:22, 14:24
