Investopedia: The "head-and-shoulders" pattern is believed to be one of the most reliable trend-reversal patterns. Does this resemble the bearish pattern?
Ok, well in the early going we get a 1.25% drop in the Dow and a 1.5% drop in both the Nasdaq and the Nasdaq 100. A quick "lop-off" from gains made last week in lightened trade. Since there has been no commentary on this "formation", I take it Investopedia has it nailed. So if the support/"neckline" is broken or about another 1.25% - 1.5% fall. . .we head for a Bear Market? I guess this site is mostly "scalpers" that are not interested in "swings" or general Market Direction. After all, T.A. and volume has no bearing on trades - just pure "price" action.
Either ET members are very much like the "crowd" (in denial) or I am looking at this wrong: So people here would rather post about everything else - but this does seem like a possible staunch "reversal". pS
I'd post some pretty pictures, but I'll just say - are we having fun yet? Does anyone lend credence to this "reliable" bearish pattern? What is wrong with this website? I am actually having a conversation with myself. It seems you have to act severely dysfunctional just to "incite" responses to a thread discussion. Maybe I should've named the thread - "IT'S FOR SURE, GENTS, THE BEAR MARKET IS STARTING NOW!!!!" I am just curious is the right shoulder does indeed seem to be headed sharply lower - i.e. going into a Bear Market very soon. Please take a moment and post your views and experience. paysense
