Rising wedge look on the daily with RSI 5 divergence. MACD
rolling down. 9 EMA right below. Getting my attention as a short
candidate with proviso that it's a very strong stock and could
still break to the upside.
60 Min chart has formed a nice tight triangle with Bollinger
Bands getting tight. Found support today at the bottom of the
triangle and the 100 EMA. Volume pattern is very distributional in
triangle. If the techs finally weaken this could flush quickly to
test the gap.
Steve, thanks very much for your comments on standing aside at
the opening unless there is a clean pattern with a tight
consolidation -- Do you apply that rule to gaps (assuming they
aren't too large) as far as entering a trade right after the
open?
Here's a nice setup I found this morning on the 5 minute chart
on IWM. It seems like it fits your criteria for a trade that you
can take as soon as the trend line is broken….
What's pretty incredible is that they aren't even trying to idea
this coordinated CB intervention -- the Chinese and Koreans and
Japanese and Australians - through various government agencies are
all buying shares -- interesting thing is that gold only backed off
a little
Seems like coordinated central bank intervention. DJ news has a
report from a Chinese official who says something like "no worries,
equity prices will be up sharply in a short time."
Matt posted the triangle this morning. I was just playing with
the chart. First I threw on the Fibs and saw that the whole rally
back stopped dead at the 38 Fib. Then I drew the dotted TL and it
would appear that the SSEC broke it's TL and is backtesting it now.
The backtest, if it fails and proves to be a bear flag, may tell
the tale before the smaller triangle breaks. It actually looks like
an interesting swing short here on the backtest where you can keep
your stop reasonably tight.

RUT didn't like the thin air at higher altitude.
Still has room to back test the bigger wedge if it acclimates.

...yep, if the inverse h&s plays out to it's measured move we'll blast through the tops of the wedges and should be rocketing higher in thin air.

Might possibly have double topped just now with nice divergence if it doesn't push again.

Possible evening star setting up at the top of a rising wedge on the IWM daily with a little divergence. Nice divergence on recent push on the 60.

Matt -- how are you counting it?

Obviously the way this breaks is a BIG deal. But it's kind of weird one to count -- do you interpret the last touch as D or E?
