Well in the end I should have stayed short as the next candle confirmed it but that prior one still said long to me. Once broken 212.20 though it was an easy clear run to 210.66 for sure.

 

Unlucky cowpip, what made you go long there?

 

Short from 212.08 in the end (as visable on the chart)

 

closed short @ 210.93 for +115

 

long from @ 210.99

No kidding. Sheesh... I couldn't wait for that last 4-hour candle to form before hitting the hay, and I must have been too tired to act properly. It was screaming short at me. Sigh...

 

I'm glad you finally nailed the direction right.

 

Note to self (again): Don't make decisions when you're tired.

I'm long from 110.74 following the hammer on the 15-min rejection at support. There has been some nice buying down here during the last few hours. Let's see if it continues.

lol! That's why I have my way of trading so simple its a case of yes or no and no major decisions need to be made. I just need to remember to look at the right bleedin charts!

Wasp, what is the purpose of your short horizontal lines in your charts? They're obvious S/R, but I can't figure out why they're not long lines as well.

 

Edit: Oh crap - there I go again. This probably should have been posted in the other thread. Sorry about that.

No problems but, on the other thread, can you tell me what exactly you mean? If its the short S/R (not all way across screen, they are just there for information, I don't use them to base decisions).

Closed my long for +43 and now short at 211.25. Stop at 211.68. Why? Seemed like a decent place to reverse at the short-term resistance zone following that rejection off of the 61% fib. Trend is still down, and consolidation is likely to occur, so I'm trying to play the waves. If my stop is hit, that'll signal a decent change in trend.

Ok, let's try this one more time from a slightly better location... short from 211.47, stop at 68.

 

This has been a butch of a ride... moved stop up to 92 to avoid FOMC news spike and associated "noise." Still short from 47.

I neglected to mention I scratched for -21 and I'm short again from 212.04. What I thought would be resistance around 211.60 (roughly the 61% fib) was too weak. Should have known.

Out for -50

 

Long @ 212.45

 

If this market doesn't start picking up I will be taking a break again. This isn't worth getting out of bed for.

Agreed. I'm out at -40 and long at 212.31.

I don't like what I'm seeing. Price has been strongly rejected when above 20 and is now being resisted below 20... I've scratched (AGAIN!) for -23 and am short at 212.09.

Staying long myself, the resistance met can be seen on a 15 minute chart quite clearly but I am sticking with the larger view and think we will be heading up again personally.

Failure to break the 30-min inside bar would confirm your thinking.

    • It depends. If you have lots of money that you can buy a house without a loan and if you don't have any parents to sponsor then it is a good idea. Otherwise it might be a bad idea depending where in Canada you are heading to. I earned a good middle income in my home country and I migrated to Vancouver 5 years ago at the age of 35. I had to start right from the bottom, lowest of the low.. Now i am finally earning a middle income in Canada but I still cannot afford to buy a one bedroom apartment. Having left behind friends, family and home, most of the times I think it is not worth it.   In short, do not migrate if you already have a good life in your home country and you are happy. Only migrate to Canada if you really have to leave your home country say there is a war or something really bad. Discrimination still exists here and its really tough for newcomers unless you are super rich. Good luck. David Chong, Quora  
    • This is bigger than the internet. Bigger than mobile. Bigger than social media.   While everyone was distracted by stock market fluctuations and political theater…   Most people have NO IDEA what just happened last week with ChatGPT.   Their new memory feature allows ChatGPT to remember EVERYTHING about you across all your conversations.   Think about that for a minute...   While most tech companies have been collecting mere breadcrumbs about you - your likes, your clicks, your browsing history - OpenAI is now collecting the most valuable dataset in human history: your complete psychological profile.   This is Zuckerberg x 5,000.   The more you use ChatGPT, the more it understands you, becoming a supercharged reflection of yourself that improves at an exponential rate.   Are you a regular ChatGPT user?   Consider whether it’s time to turn off the “you can train on my information” feature. To prevent your data from being used for training while still using the memory feature:   Disable Model Training: Navigate to Settings > Data Controls. Toggle off "Improve the model for everyone". Manage Memory Settings: Go to Settings > Personalization > Memory. Here, you can: Turn off memory entirely. Delete specific memories. Use Temporary Chat for sessions that won't be saved or used for training. Now the investment implications…   Why This is Bigger Than You Think Consider this: the relationship between humans and ChatGPT is evolving beyond a mere tool.   People are now treating these AI assistants as friends, confidants, and even romantic partners.   I'm not making this up - there are already documented cases of people ending real human relationships to pursue “connections” with their AI companions.   A viral Instagram meme shows a person going through life with a glowing, featureless humanoid figure - representing ChatGPT - as their companion.   The post has over 1.1 million likes and comments like "Bro ChatGPT is like my best friend. Ain't even ashamed to say it" with 25,000 likes.   But here's where things get really interesting for investors and entrepreneurs...   Three Things to Watch For starters, hardware is the next big thing for the big players.   The iPhone form factor is dead.   It hasn't meaningfully changed in nearly a decade. The next evolution in hardware will be designed specifically to interface with these AI companions.   OpenAI is already working on hardware with Johnny Ive, the legendary designer behind the iPhone and iPod. But you can’t ignore Elon Musk’s edge here.   So what does all of this mean for you?   The companies that control the personal AI relationships will be worth trillions. OpenAI and Elon Musk will have the coziest moats. We're witnessing the birth of a new internet - one built on agents that can communicate with each other across platforms. Google's new agent-to-agent protocol allows AI agents to work together without sharing internal memories or tools. The hardware companies that create the perfect interface for these AI companions will dominate the next decade of technology. And almost nobody is talking about what this means.   My prediction? Within five years, most people will have a personal AI that knows them better than anyone else. And they will interact with it in ways that seem foreign today.   (And, yes, it will almost certainly have dystopian elements.)   In the meantime, the biggest gains won’t come from household names. And, right now, James is seeing a prime opportunity to invest in the most under-the-radar plays in AI…   For dirt cheap. By Chris C.
