One thing for sure, Dan has a lot of years in his brain and he has seen and forgot more than I will ever learn. This site has kept my ADHD interest for almost 4+ years even when I was getting my brains beat in the last couple of years. Nothing is as easy as it seemed in a long term bull market that ended in 2011. After a few good ones in 2010-2011 I am beginning to have a hunch the market is turning, but others here are either solid bulls (me previously due to fundamentals) or guys like Mark who believe that the Stock Market can go up endlessly. It appears that the HUI is attempting to break above the 50DMA, and if it does it could run with a lot of overhead at just under the 200DMA. Maybe Dan will enlighten and help us all with an update on the ADX action again. I hate hanging around in this long term bear market very long so, I may just take the 10% and run, till the clear hurdle over the 50 is made for sure. I am a long term bull with a strong sense of FEAR since the destruction of capital last couple of years. However, the tide seems to be turning on the trumpets at the MSM and the Fed which if they do and the dollar loses it "lustre" and it turns to Gold, we might be back in antoher run uphill. Somehting I have been waiting for awhile. Peace to all.

If bears can't protect that level, all the stuff written since 1st october about bears being strongly in control short term can be put to garbage : they had a chance to krach prices under 1290 when the head and shoulders failed and the bollinger bands were opening.<br />I guess this could mark a change of psychology since the end of the "shutdown" crisis and the ridiculous deal that emerged from it :<br /><br />- the whole world is aware that US has serious problems (read GEAB / LEAP...even if they forget about european own problems!)<br />- and they have been given 3 months before the same crisis is back!<br /><br />What would you do during those 3 months to make sure you are not as exposed as you were before 1st of october?<br /><br />So, I don't know if it's purely technical or if psychology has changed, but I'm getting ready.<br />Yet, careful about the scissors as long as real latest highs of early october are not behind.

Usually if I get a ratio risk/reward of at least 3/1 for my first target (which is the target where I usually make a profit of 1/3 to 1/2 of my line), I go for it if several indicators point to the same direction.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00335835171576180359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708908742323002823.post-72314096624504447082013-10-23T23:08:47.337-07:002013-10-23T23:08:47.337-07:00P.S : what could be useful now ( I don't have ...P.S : what could be useful now ( I don't have it) is a chart of the On Balance Volume Differential (OBVD) on a 2 hours or 1 hour candle chart monitoring last days price action just around 1345 $.<br />Do we see a divergence of some sort?

If we break above it, the Bol sup of this time unit and the mlh sup (red) of the next pitchfork are both above 1400 $.<br /><br />The MACD just DIDN'T cross its signal (bullish!!) and is flirting with its propagation axis (resistance). If it manages to cross this propagation axis, it would confirm the non crossing signal, and would confirm bullish potential as well. <br />The CDur doesn't need much to turn bullish.<br />There are 2 lines for the CDUR. The bold one is the CDUR of the longer time unit (here monthly). The normal line is the CDUR of this time unit (here weekly). When BOTH Cdur goes the same way, it usually is a strong indicator about price trends as well.<br />So let's see where we are on the daily :<br /><br />2) daily time unit.<br />Prices are about to break above a downwards channel here too, near 1340.<br />The MACD already crossed its signal higher (bullish)<br />BOTH Cdur are now going up.<br />The Bol 100 is in a Range, and the Bol sup could be a nice target, above 1400 $.<br /><br />Conclusion : we could see a strong and sudden acceleration of prices if we breach the 1340-1350 area, heading rapidly towards 1420 $ area. It has to be confirmed, because as long as we stay below 1340 area, well...the resistance holds and not much hope for bulls.<br />I am positioned accordingly.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00335835171576180359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708908742323002823.post-36612924581957653262013-10-23T22:34:36.221-07:002013-10-23T22:34:36.221-07:00John, I'm not speaking under his control, but ...John, I'm not speaking under his control, but I think I remember the feeling of Sinclair about that was : <br />1) short term appreciation of the dollar due to what you mentioned (yes, tapering, stop QE is dollar positive, investments leaking out back into dollar)<br />2) collapse of the dollar soon after : rise of interest rates, unsustainable interest rates on the debt level, Fed forced to restart QE on an emergency mode (bearish dollar bull gold) or if not, failures and bankruptcies of major TBTF banks (again bearish dollar bull gold).<br /><br />This whole crisis always reminded me about the Titanic story as a whole. Careless passengers still listening to the concert in the dining hall, untill it's too late.<br /><br />Remember the last minutes of "Titanic" ? (the last version of the movie with Leonardo anyway lol).<br /><br />The boat is split in two pieces and for a moment, our poor couple is propelled up far above the ocean...and then they sink like a stone.<br /><br />I would see the dollar act exactly that way, actually. Dollar holders might be the last in the water, but the end result would be the same.<br />Physical gold is one of the rare salvation boats.<br />In this I do agree 100% with Sinclair, and I respect his attempt to try and warn a sleepy population of lemmings, uneducated, and able to understand only rather simplistic messages.<br />How do you address and "save" as many of these fellows as you can, sometines against their own will?<br />Keep it stupid simple.<br />No time for sophisticated messages, I guess.<br />His big mistake imho was to start forecasting a bottom, both in terms of timing (his birthday,etc...) and then in terms of price (1530...1320...and today, even if he may be proven right this time), because it had the opposite effect on some followers, which were more like "brainless believers" who thought that he was always 100% right. When doubts set in, your godly image is hard to restore. He warned about being leveraged, but maybe he understimated the psychological pressure and capacity of usual followers, even if unleveraged, even if invested only 35% of their assets, to endure a 30% drop in the value of their "safe haven" asset.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00335835171576180359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708908742323002823.post-41385399934315732042013-10-23T22:13:41.177-07:002013-10-23T22:13:41.177-07:00Thanks for taking the time to respond - really app...Thanks for taking the time to respond - really appreciate it. <br /><br />l had forgotten about the carry trade aspect. When that rug is finally pulled (ie, tapering), foreign equity markets (non US - especially those in emerging nations) will plunge (I live in Korea - there is a lot of commentary about this hot money). But again, where will that carry trade capital go when it returns to the US? Bonds or stocks? Bonds could rally (but l doubt it as US funds would be selling on expectations of reduced bond buying) which leaves equities. So therefore, would the US equity markets and dollar soar in unison (drawing in more capital in the process as foreign investors try to benefit from the double hit of dollar strengthening and equity appreciation)? My guess is yes, but we'll have to see....<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08248703812009022489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708908742323002823.post-43388522582941762722013-10-23T21:27:47.577-07:002013-10-23T21:27:47.577-07:00John Kitcher;

That is probably one of things that is keeping the Dollar from dropping even more sharply even as it weakens. Your points are excellent and sum it up as good as anything I have seen.<br /><br />I would add however that it is the active bond buying programs of the Central Banks which is supplying the funding for these international capital flows in the first place.<br /><br />Besides, an ultra low interest rate environment makes for the creation of the "carry trades" in which money is borrowed by large hedge funds at ridiculously cheap rates and then leveraged up into investments in the attempt to garner high rates of return. The system is precariously unstable as a result of this rampant speculation which has been deliberately nurtured, nay, encouraged by these monetary officials to influence consumer sentiment and thus borrowing by pushing stocks higher and higher so as to give the illusion that all is well.Trader Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05484363461047659198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708908742323002823.post-61873777532244622682013-10-23T18:40:22.440-07:002013-10-23T18:40:22.440-07:00Hey Dan – thanks for your active blog. I agree tha...Hey Dan – thanks for your active blog. I agree that central bank liquidity is supporting the world’s markets but what do you think about international capital flows? Equity buying in the US (focusing on blue chips) could conceivably come from investors moving capital out of Europe/troubled regions and from pension funds looking to diversify their portfolios (ie, out of bonds). While US fundamentals are poor (l think that you are in the middle of a depression), relatively speaking, you are in good stead. As a European investor, where could l park my capital? Cash – not likely given possible one-off haircuts on deposits. Bonds – overpriced. Gold – terrible return and in a downtrend. Equities – there you go (in a strong up-channel, dividend payments). From an international perspective, US equities are a good investment and on sale (thanks to the recent dollar weakening).<br /><br />In summary – I believe that central banks are providing short-term support for the equity markets, but longer term support comes from international sources and pension funds. Do you concur?<br /> <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08248703812009022489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708908742323002823.post-35944457912610508852013-10-23T16:38:42.456-07:002013-10-23T16:38:42.456-07:00Hey Wolf
