Buying on the dips isn't working, at least not for me.  Short time frames aren't helpful either.  All the stocks mixed and volatile too.  Lost a lot of money and looking, again, at the end.

IG has 180,000+ clients and maybe five or six post on here regularly ... just hopeless.

I suspect many trading possibly look a bit more in depth than how 'big a dump' a stock may be taking on a candle or how big it's 'erection' is.

But hey, that's just me and perhaps that's what traders do and perhaps I need to study 'dumps' and 'erections' far more to become a successful trader.

So going off this hideous chart, why would anyone have been going long after Mon 8th/Tues 9th?  Because you trade upswings on lower timeframes?  What kind of trend is that, anyway?  Isn't it just going sideways?

The lines and indicators aren't telling me anything that I can't already see.

Confused.

No wonder so many people lose money.

So what are you studying that makes you successful?

Stuff on Dailyfx?  'Here are a dozen lines; price may do this or it may do that.  If it does do that then it may do this; or it may not.  And if it does this then maybe this will happen, or maybe that.  And  by the way, 62% of IG's clients are long and they are a bunch of idiots who lose all their money.'

How is that working out for you?

Why levels are so important for trading.

That looks great although I don't know what that alternating-coloured line is.

On IG's 1 min chart you can see it bouncing off daily pivots, PRT lets you have hourly, four hourly pivots etc.

Doesn't work when I try it.

Must be doing something wrong.

I mean ... if all you're doing is buying and selling bounces off pivots then why even have 'indicators'?

It's like all these hideous f*king charts plastered with sh!te to make the 'analyst' look like they know what they're talking about.

And the punters (who are a bunch of losers, mainly) lap it up and ask for more.

I am both confused, and stupid - I know that I know nothing.  What?

Well here's a conundrum.  It looks like it was just another 'wee dip' in the DJIA, but most IG clients are long.

So, what do I do in the here and now?

Not, like Chris Beauchamp, smugly look back months from now with his awesome powers of hindsight and say that most IG clients were dumb losers.

 

ANSWER: Don't go long or short.

JUST DON'T TRADE!

5 and 20 with RSI gave a sell signal though.

No 200 SMA filter used.

When using the RSI you have to be prepared to through your crossover rule out the window when you see a divergence followed by a big candle penetrating the 5 SMA 🤯

    • Asian stocks rose on Wednesday following Fed Chair Powell's comments suggesting upcoming US rate cuts. The yen remained near 38-year lows against the dollar, raising intervention concerns. Powell's remarks about disinflation and the need for more data before rate cuts sent Treasury yields lower and weakened the dollar. Traders now anticipate a 69% chance of a Fed rate cut in September. Chinese stocks fell slightly, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng rose, following an eight-month low for the Caixin services PMI. Today sees a huge volume of US data, including the ADP payroll report and Fed minutes, while initial jobless claims are released today due to tomorrow's holiday. The S&P 500 closed above 5500 and the Nasdaq 100 finished above 20,000 on Tuesday, hitting new record highs
