re: FOMC This is a biggie one, might trade the PA after the announcement for a few scalps here and there, but predicting a direction before such a behemoth announcement like Bond Tapering etc is really not in store for me. I think new data will reveal easier paths in the very near future...

Yes I know the pattern well, but it's not an easy trade, much better and safer to let the downtrend develop, no reason to short high to do well when shorting. Then it's just a matter of associating the downtrend and the megaphone. At the same time, the line does not have to hold, it is a big...

Problem with lines connecting higher highs is that price can react down then as time burns the line goes higher, so the uptrend can be kept intact, they are good exit points, but not necessarily reversals.

Trading is only appropriate for someone that lives and breaths the markets. Everyone else, should look elsewhere.

You will lose it all. Wait for market panic, then buy high quality companies with good dividends, and say FU to your broker and bank.

Buy red trail breakouts :)

May or may not hold :)

The psychological curse to short high even if it means shorting a strong uptrend has probably killed more traders than Nazis killed Jews.

No charts needed, it is a serious uptrend, with no serious pullbacks, everytime it wants you to think it is a Lower High, it is actually a trap with tons of shorts looking for an exit and then goes and makes higher highs. No technical damage in any of the timeframes and serious strength suggests...

VIX is volatility, I meant when the markets are spooked, that's when you look for your buy signal.

New market highs this week is my read.

Buy fear

In a bull market that feeling should be common :)

He is taking a little heat, but would not yet call it "his Waterloo". As long as 2013 lows hold, hes fine.

Sounds like limited loss and no loverage on a losing trade, nothing to worry.

Excel window or iPad spreadsheet with round number calculations for easy determination or some sort of semi automation.

More buyers than sellers :D

Bottoms never happen on good news. The worst it looks the higher the chances of a bottom. Opposite for tops.
