Contrary to all your nice comments i am still a novice and Learning and still haven't mastered the art of technical analysis.......
I will be honest and tell you i have no knowkedge about cup and handle but thank you for the link and i will learn......
according to my limited knowledge and analysis i would be shorting S&P around 850 level as fierce resistance!!
I don't believe these rally are going to last, i am contemplating taking long term short psositions on all the indices......similar to what William is doing at present!!
hoping what just happened was akin to another bear squeeze, markets start to rally, shorts get stopped out, pushing the rally up even faster followed by an equally fast drop!
also an avid reader of williams emails and currently have a medium term short position on the ftse march contract.

I was down big time yesterday, made some money today, but far from my original position 2 days back. how did you guys do?
Take care, good night
I got screwed on Monday and today big time...
Im letting my losses run abit and cutting my profits too short fearing they would diminish and be left with a loss. I need to cut my losses quick as they are sucking up my bottom line,
Another problem im having again is chasing losses and getting stopped out and also tend to enter in teh wrong direction without any real discipline, Gota sort that out too otherwise this is another live account im gona blow if i dont be careful...
Any advice or info would be appreciated.
Thanks

its terribly rangey. everyone and their cat knows the dow is about to fall out of the sky. hence the rangetastic nonsense you see before you. its incredibly difficult to trade unless you are in front of that screen all day. its not worth it. let it get out of the range.

agreed.ranging markets can kill
Exactly Francis, Tough market,
Have to be at the screen all day or else you get screwed big time, thats 1 problem i had today, opening a trade, setting SL and runnig here n there tryna get other things done, only to notice im stopped out.. if i had watched it maybe i could have got out early or taken a small profit...
