FTSE    daily.   Bounced hard off an Andrews median line....Theory is that act as strong resistance as do 1/4 and 3/4 lines.  Most powerful signal is when an instrument gaps though over night....Its very steep as you see, but not to be underestimated as a support line.

I've lost as much as I've made trying to buy lows/sell highs.  This is so dumb :D

why you trying to guess the highs and lows? Price has spent the whole day travelling between levels, all these levels (except the new H1 support green 12366) have been on the chart since early this morning (check postings above) 👀

so whats the direction you think on this @cheviot ? and same to be applied to Wall St?

FTSE and DJ are not really on the same page...FTSE trapped in this triangle of 18 months duration...Bid to the roof when its up , and looks like **** when its on its toosh ....Typical triangle ....Basically the market wants to follow , but does nt know where to go as there is fundamental conflict.  I think with FTSE , it is heavy weight miners and oil, retailers and banks....and with £ and Brexit , it has nt got the follow through to break out , as there is no real spark. 

Wall St is different....They do nt have as many head winds, and they have a very accommodating Fed....They ve had tax cuts galore and V importantly there has been alot of corporate buy backs.....Also Heavy tech industry...FANG has done really well....we do nt have that in FTSE....So we wo nt follow until there is a few more things clear.    L T I think Ftse/UK could pick up really well...while US goes through election etc.  

I m a buyer of Wall street, here but only to carry/sell.....later,  I think tummy says that its over done....a bit of choice buying....but be prepared to dump it ....quick.  

We ll probably try th e upside in a week as every body talks CV2019 down....But ....watch the TBond.....If it can get through 1.8 % yield , stocks will drop very quickly...

T Bond getting bought up again....200.00 base  203.25  on th e long bond...Equity rally may fade as bond sellers are running out of steam at 200. 

Watch the T Bond even if you do nt trade it...It ll warn you of what INDX s are going to do next....   203.25 equates to 1.8% yield, so far its never broken it in 50 years...If it does...INDXs will get slammed again....

Is that your upside buy signal ...or do you sell there ?  

I d say that was a retrace you sell at ??  

No, not buy signal. 28400 is my estimation for deciding up or down for the medium term.

I day trade so care more about daily direction. As of close tonight, it looks so far away from that level.🤔

Let's see what the overnight reaction has in store for us and hopefully we all make some more money tomorrow.

Dow J  Sp and oil all hit long term wash out targets.   DAily RSI s are all in bounce territory.  

DJ hit and is bouncing off  78.2% correction of the uptrend

SP hit 61.8%  correction of up trend

Oil hit long term support line at $47.70 and is the bottom of Wave B of a complex wave correction  

TB has not broken 203.25 on Futures and 1.8%  

FTSE   bouncing off bottom of triangle and geometric support of 2 median lines.

Chucked in the towel around 3PM yesterday, unwound my FTSE short as the market kept pushing upwards through 7000. I check the charts this morning and everything sold at 4:30PM!

So annoying! 🥵

 

It's better to 'zoom out' and take daily and four-hourly readings at times like these, if you're dealing in short time frames in such a hectic time of upheaval you will just get sh@fted over and over again.

    • Asian stocks, led by tech shares, rallied sharply on Wednesday as investors shifted focus to upcoming earnings from major US tech companies like Meta, Alphabet and Microsoft. Tesla's shares surged 12.5% after-hours as it promised new electric vehicle models, despite missing Q1 expectations. This boosted sentiment in Asia's tech sector. The Japanese yen remained depressed near 34-year lows against the US dollar around 154.85, keeping traders wary of potential intervention by Japanese authorities. Broad gains were seen across Asian markets like Taiwan, South Korea, Japan's Nikkei and the MSCI Asia-Pacific ex-Japan index. China and Hong Kong stocks were mixed. The risk-on rally is expected to extend to Europe with futures pointing to a higher open. Apart from tech earnings, markets are also eyeing US GDP and core PCE inflation data this week for clues on Fed rate path. US Treasury yields and the dollar index eased after data showed a cooling in US business activity and inflation pressures in April. The Australian dollar jumped on hotter-than-expected inflation data, prompting removal of rate cut bets for this year. Oil prices were largely flat as geopolitical tensions offset economic concerns.

    • AUDUSD Elliott Wave Analysis Trading Lounge Day Chart,     Australian Dollar/U.S.Dollar (AUDUSD) Day Chart   AUDUSD Elliott Wave Technical Analysis                          FUNCTION: Counter Trend                             MODE: impulsive as A                           STRUCTURE:  blue wave 3                         POSITION:  black wave B                             DIRECTION NEXT HIGHER  DEGREES: black wave B                           DETAILS: blue  wave 2 completed , now blue wave 3 of Ais in play .Wave Cancel invalid level: 0.64440       The AUD/USD Elliott Wave Analysis for the Day Chart provides an in-depth examination of the trends and expected future movements in the Australian Dollar/U.S. Dollar currency pair according to Elliott Wave Theory.   ### Function The function of the analysis is identified as "Counter Trend." This designation indicates that the current wave structure is moving against the broader trend. In other words, while the overall market direction may be trending in one way, the current analysis focuses on a temporary reversal or correction against that prevailing trend.   ### Mode The mode for this chart is described as "impulsive as A." This designation signifies that the ongoing wave is impulsive, suggesting strong momentum, yet is part of a corrective phase. The impulse often initiates a new corrective wave or drives a significant move within the larger wave structure.   ### Structure The structure is defined as "blue wave 3." This structure is indicative of an intermediate-level wave within a corrective cycle. Blue wave 3 of A generally suggests that a significant impulsive phase is occurring within a broader counter-trend movement.     ### Position The position within the Elliott Wave structure is noted as "black wave B." This placement suggests that the current wave structure is part of a larger corrective phase, possibly indicating a retracement or consolidation pattern within a higher degree of correction.   ### Direction for the Next Higher Degrees The analysis highlights the "black wave B" as the expected direction at higher degrees. This reference indicates that the current impulsive phase will eventually lead to a larger corrective movement, often resembling a multi-level pattern in Elliott Wave Theory.   ### Details The details state that blue wave 2 has completed, and blue wave 3 of A is now in play. This transition indicates a move from a corrective phase to an impulsive one. The Wave Cancel invalid level is 0.64440, implying that if the price moves beyond this point, the current wave structure will require reassessment, signaling a potential invalidation of the wave count.   In summary, the AUD/USD Elliott Wave Analysis for the Day Chart reveals a complex corrective phase within a larger counter-trend pattern. Blue wave 3 of A is underway, indicating an impulsive phase within a broader correction, with a Wave Cancel invalid level providing a crucial marker for risk management. This analysis suggests that the trend may continue to develop, leading to more intricate wave structures within the larger Elliott Wave framework.             AUDUSD Elliott Wave Analysis Trading Lounge 4 Hour Chart,     Australian Dollar/U.S.Dollar (AUDUSD) 4 Hour Chart   AUDUSD Elliott Wave Technical Analysis AUDUSD Elliott Wave Technical Analysis                               FUNCTION: Trend                             MODE: corrective                           STRUCTURE:  red wave 2                         POSITION:  blue wave 3                             DIRECTION NEXT LOWER  DEGREES: red wave 3                             DETAILS: red wave 2 is in play and looking near to end between 50.00 to 61.80 fib level  .Wave Cancel invalid level: 0.64440       The AUD/USD Elliott Wave Analysis for the 4-Hour Chart examines the current trends and likely future direction of the Australian Dollar/U.S. Dollar currency pair based on Elliott Wave Theory.   ### Function The function of this analysis is identified as "Trend," indicating that the wave structure being analyzed is part of a broader ongoing trend rather than a counter-trend or corrective move. This classification signifies that the current pattern is likely to align with a larger directional movement.   ### Mode The mode for this chart is described as "corrective." Although the overall function is a trend, the current wave structure is correcting within that trend. Corrective waves usually follow an impulsive phase, indicating a retracement or a consolidation phase within the ongoing trend.   ### Structure   The structure is defined as "red wave 2." This wave typically represents a correction within a larger impulsive structure. It suggests that the current corrective phase is an intermediate step in a more significant trend, often occurring after an impulsive wave has completed.   ### Position The current position within the Elliott Wave structure is "blue wave 3." This position points towards an intermediate-degree wave pattern, often indicating a larger wave in the multi-level structure of Elliott Waves. The presence of a corrective structure within a blue wave 3 suggests a potential pause in a broader upward or downward trend.   ### Direction for the Next Lower Degrees The analysis points towards "red wave 3" as the next lower-degree trend. This indication aligns with the structure's corrective mode, suggesting that once the current red wave 2 concludes, a new impulsive movement is likely to begin in the form of red wave 3.   ### Details The analysis states that red wave 2 is nearing its end, falling between the 50.00 and 61.80 Fibonacci retracement levels. These levels are significant as they often serve as key support or resistance zones where reversals may occur. The Wave Cancel invalid level is at 0.64440, indicating that if the price moves beyond this point, the current wave structure may be invalidated, requiring re-evaluation.   In summary, the AUD/USD Elliott Wave Analysis for the 4-Hour Chart outlines a current corrective phase within a broader trend. It suggests that once red wave 2 concludes, an impulsive red wave 3 is likely to begin, indicating a potential shift in market direction. The Fibonacci retracement levels offer guidance on where this correction might end, while the invalidation level provides a critical risk boundary for traders and analysts.   Technical Analyst : Malik Awais   Source : Tradinglounge.com get trial here!
