Chaos Clinic Recap




Here are Al's comments
3:08 thanks for coming-see you next week-take a course
3:06 too bad it was snowing in the mountains; this was definitely a camping day :)
2:27 1296 is a major 72 point quantum-a main attractor - stuck on it today
2:54 out -1; no go
2:50 recall that 10:00 was hot-6 hours later-4:00 could also be hot
2:48 velcro move
2:40 stop 97
2:26 getting hex pattern at 1295-tends to set stable prices at 12 point increments
2:18 need to break 94 support to get a following
2:09 the MTRainbow chart is showing a dome top pattern
2:07 sold 95.25 stop 98.25
1:59 breakdown price now 95.25
1:50 hanging by a thread
1:40 looking weak-30 minute range a very narrow 2 points
1:35 it's gotten very quiet-even here, where one of my granddaughters has fallen asleep on the couch-she never want to sleep,
but sometimes it catches up with her :)
1:28 95.5 looks like a breaking point-just under the 440 EXMA
1:23 in trade window-watching for a sell with some juice
1:17 breakout trading systems will have sell stops under the last low of 1294
1:10 this is dullness-buyers and sellers balanced-chaos follows dullness
The one thing that could change the balance is the Mercury/Saturn conjuction-their timelines are just after 2:00
1:00 I once had an old trader tell me a pattern like this was the specialists "trading out their paper" - distributing before a decline
12:43 on the MTRainbow chart you see a big congestion starting about 11:00 yesterday-an ellipse around it ends about 2:00 today
12:41 looks like we tread water until the last trade time
12:37 out flat again-no go
12:35 on the MT rainbow chart sitting on 440 EXMA in a convergence
12:27 resold 96 , stop 99-I have no patience today; I have 2 grandchildren playing in my upstairs "office"
12:24 out +.5 -not going
12:13 stop 1298
12:09 resold 97-stop 1300
12:08 out flat
12:06 stalled here-needs to break 95 to move
12:02 stop 1300
11:47 not a hotline trade- sold 97 stop 1302; my trade selection software did not pick this turn
11:40 broke 110 EXMA
11:27 large top wick on 3 minute candles-selling overhead
11:23 on the Chaos Clinic chart with all the astro stuff, there are diagonal yellow lines - the MoonTide harmonic grid
The down slowping one is suppressing the rallies
11:20 testing 1301 again
11:07 that looks like the lower high-but still trading both sides of the 110 EXMA
Mercury conjoin Saturn at 1292 set the low - +9 = 45 degrees=1301 set last high
10:58 seeing mixed Tides- currently coning into the red -tide high
10:52 the MTRainbow chart shows a weak uptrend; I see a lower low, so watching for a lower high
10:42 This market still looks weak to me, just not ready to go down yet
10:40 aborted -2; making things up
10:30 resold 95.5 stop 98.5
10:26 stopped -.5 ; settling into congestion
10:24 I pay a lot of attention to the slope or speed of a move-this downturn is very steep
10:20 on the SPRainbow chart the white 440 EXMA indicates the day's main trend-currently rolling over from up to down
10:18 adjusted stop to 96
10:14 still OK-pressed stop too soon
10:07 stop 95.5 -10:00 resonant streak
10:03 sold 95.5 stop 99.5 for now
10:01 a break below about 1296 will turn the 110 EXAMA down
9:58 now watching to see if we head south
9:53 out -1.5 ; early failure to follow through
9:44 stop 99.5
9:42 bought 1301 stop 1298
9:41 watching for follow through
9:38 testing high
9:27 settled on 110 EXMA - flat
9:15 pre-outcry reversal off yesterdays's high
9:00 Good morning from Chaos Manor

8/15/2008 1:43:20 PM Mountain cgm:: backassword shud b breaking now
8/15/2008 1:33:14 PM Mountain cgm:: show new h& nu l still possible
8/15/2008 1:21:15 PM Mountain cgm:: 93.75 holds break 1307+ projected h
8/15/2008 1:15:21 PM Mountain DBJ:: As tricky as today has been to trade, the whole day looks like a terrific setup for a short over the weekend, IMHO.
8/15/2008 1:15:00 PM Mountain cgm:: if break shud come 3: 15 rally @345
8/15/2008 1:01:29 PM Mountain Arb:: Any take on some amount of tracking of ES and crude ? The 2 buck up rally not moving ES was a tell sign. Just tick reading stuff but still valid it seems. Thanks for Friday free access, great learning opportunity Al.
8/15/2008 12:56:05 PM Mountain DBJ:: For the explanation about the stability, see Al's comment in the Clinic at 2:26
8/15/2008 12:53:49 PM Mountain cgm:: not familar w/ the term velcro move sticky?
8/15/2008 12:51:22 PM Mountain dp:: Is the temporary stability explanation where we can read it? Thanks.
8/15/2008 12:39:42 PM Mountain DBJ:: Thanks for the explanation on the temporary stability Al. :-)
8/15/2008 12:33:59 PM Mountain Arb:: crude pit closing time, my bet ES is moving up now, or my assumption is just off
8/15/2008 12:29:51 PM Mountain Arb:: nice break but not go, seems there are deep pockets who do not want this to go down just now
8/15/2008 12:27:47 PM Mountain Arb:: 14:25 crude on the move again
8/15/2008 12:19:10 PM Mountain DBJ:: Odd... The latest Hex pattern suggests stability.
8/15/2008 11:56:41 AM Mountain Arb:: crude moving again ... 19:50 may drive the action
8/15/2008 11:01:34 AM Mountain Arb:: For the record, the crude 12:39:10 "mini-break" 112.06 (previous local low 112.08) precedes the ES 12:39:16 1297.25 up tick ending the stall
8/15/2008 10:50:25 AM Mountain DBJ:: Thanks Al.
8/15/2008 10:47:55 AM Mountain Al:: good trade, DBJ
8/15/2008 10:42:41 AM Mountain DBJ:: Took +2
8/15/2008 10:15:32 AM Mountain DBJ:: Stop 97. Locking in 2
8/15/2008 9:56:38 AM Mountain Arb:: Crude 111.60 to 112.80 at 11:36-48 - Now off - ES back up
8/15/2008 9:50:44 AM Mountain DBJ:: Stop 99.
8/15/2008 9:43:09 AM Mountain mm:: I don't see a crude rally - it has been around 112.30 for a while - down from 113+ earlier
8/15/2008 9:42:51 AM Mountain DBJ:: Sold 99.
8/15/2008 9:39:27 AM Mountain Arb:: 11:36 crude rally
8/15/2008 9:30:56 AM Mountain cgm:: full moon h today?
8/15/2008 8:50:56 AM Mountain Arb:: IMHO we are waiting for a break up in crude oil for ES to break down (CL now down 111.70 from yest close 115.10) a case where the fundamentals outweight the Moontide ?)
8/15/2008 6:00:44 AM Mountain DBJ:: GM all, and good trading!
8/15/2008 4:53:11 AM Mountain mm:: gm all - have a great day
