Off skiing! Day Chart After the expected upward gap we saw an almost perfect doji today, and which can even be called a long-legged doji - typical of trend reversals...but that interpretation first needs confirmation with a downday tomorrow (possibly with a gap) after which it may become a...

If only our soccer team was just as strong ;-) Beating most other markets again... the AEX was again in for a winning day... Hopefully Oranje will show the same spirit and results next year at the EURO2008 ;-) (just subscribed to try and get some tickets for next year's tournament in...

Strong bulls Indeed strong play by the bulls yesterday at the end of the day. During the whole day the bull support level in the RSI was tested I think maybe 10 times after which it went up after being relatively flat most of the day and not being able to pass bear resistance either. As you...

Golf op golf op golf You are right, it does take preparation, analysis and time during the day. But as I am "in between jobs" I have the time to invest now (as well as that I can use the money to not fill the current gap with savings...). Today was a good day again, but again got a nasty...

Een zwaluw op het wad... maakt nog geen zomer... I know, I know... I have experience. But the way my approach worked today was independent of where and when what waves would have been placed. The fact that it crosses so many times only made me make many trades, but the principles were solid I...

Good surfweer vandaag op het wad! Well, I must admit my approach that I developed over the last few days really paid out today! I was honest yesterday, so I can be honest today as well. 8 out of 9 positive trades today, and that on a choppy sea. Let's see if this approach can stand the test of...

Surfin' surfin'..... Clown, Thanks. I am already on that road. I have some time this period so I am slowly but surely growing into something that fits my trading attitude. My suppositions are as follows: - There is almost always a trend (trend = a difference between the value of two...

So much for backtesting ;-) Day Chart After these last two days, the FTI has become a little bit less healthy so to say. Yesterday it broke through the 50% retracement level but bumped of the 494.5 resistance in an overbought situation before reaching the 61.8% level at 496.9. Subsequently it...

Van voor naar achter van links naar rechts... A quick update from my side after having worked on some of my indicators and many backtests crashing my software over the last few days :-( I made some changes to my indicators after all of these tests and doing some more reading and studying. Day...

Interpretation, interpretation... 5Y-W No news on the long term front. Still within uptrend with strong reaction this week on the drop of the week before. It should be noted however, that the volumes with which last week's drop was accompanied were far higher than for instance when looking at...

What a day... What a bizar day it was for me. Finally made the decision to get to a more formal approach to my trading decisions, finally prepared a background to my trading decisions... gues what... some French *&^%$£ electriciens (as I am living in Paris) decided to cut the current this...

Newbie willing to learn Although just being a relative novice/amateur to TA, I am trying to learn by listening, reading and by application through trading in the market place. I thereby focus my learning not only on entry and exit signals based upon TA, but als on money management rules to...
