Joe...CUK is in freefall and has NO divergence on the daily chart nor its 60 minute chart yesterday or even the 15 minute chart for that matter.  No surprise that its down again today (making new lows). NOW watch for signs of a short term bottom (maybe double bottom on small intraday time frames).  You have to shift to the intraday charts for short term for starters as I've discussed in many newsletters this year.  NO TRIGGER NO TRADE 

    Yes CUK didn't have divergence

    Yes CUK didn't have divergence coming into today on the intra day charts, however it did make a slight divergent low on the gap down open via the intra day charts, however it shot straight up along with everything else after the open, there's an open gap it got into here so far

    Thank You Steve!

    As noted in my post I noticed the lack of divergence on MACD but wasn't sure how to weight that relative to other characteristics in the charts I was observing, thanks very much. Cheap lesson....I'll keep an eye on it. I'm trying to hone my eye so every bit helps, really appreciate it.

    Cheers,

    Joe

    Joe..notice how CUK gapped down and made a DIVERGENT LOW on small time frames and then triggered long.

    funny Steve and I were both on the same wave length, I was in the middle of posting that comment and Steve beat me to it :)

    Missed It

    I'd love to sit here and say i caught it but I did not. All I saw was gap down and straight up with no meaningful pattern for an entry.

    If you're looking at the 15 min yes I see MACD divergence if you include aftermarket hours. I'm learning, but would rather sit on my hands if I'm not sure...just felt like a parabolic move and gambling that first 25 minutes. 

    Gonna see if I can get a pullback then ride it to 5 and 9 SMAs if I get in. 

    Thanks Steve
