Prior Support now Resistance. Note this chart was originally posted on 1/6/2006 and makes use of no indicators. This is a real-time exercise on how observing intra-day price action can be used to derive predictive analysis.
You're already up 33 points as of 7:17pm eastern. Nice call. Love your charts. Edit: I meant to quote where you went long at 10832, so I'm noting it here.
Joe that entry was in a reply I made to another poster week ago. I should have added the post date since ET does'nt do it automatically. I recall the buy was on a midnight dip during a drop in the Nik 225. I sold in the high 80's the next morning.

The point of the post is that the prior support that I had based my prior buy on, is now a resistance area. Therefore the probability of a negative close down tomorrow is much higher than a close up.
I don't have quite the belly for a 2 point stop. I prefer a larger stop with less contracts to keep less active reentering etc. When you are using a 2 point stop, do you get stopped out quite a bit?
I'll go on the record as saying I think we hit YM = 11,000 before we close below the blue line (see attached DAILY chart).
Bearish divergence on MACD at 18:30 Yesterday and Bearish divergence this morning at 7:30 on RSI--staying short for now
Yeah I was ready to short at the open based on the 2nd rule of Pekelo (also called nature abhores vacuum) : 2nd gaps get filled on the same day, but now we are not going to have a gap...
