  1. January a strong month for Gold, 7 positive Jans over the last 10 years but the early burst this year means Gold is already at the monthly average.

  2. Strong bull yesterday for Dow and a strong start this morning as well, heading back up towards the all time high. Dax still some work to do to reclaim Friday's losses and Ftse also starting the day strongly.

  4. Interesting video on reviewing your journal and so therefore shows the benefits of journaling in the first place. Demonstrates identifying problems early and taking steps to correct them before they damage your account.

    It uses the Edgewonk journal which is a paid for journal, I'm not pushing edgewonk but rather pushing the advantages of using journals and what a time saver they really are.

    There are 2 basic free journals linked in this thread if you have a look through, anything is better than nothing.

     

  5. no need to guess, the chart will be obvious because 'buy the dip' will have stopped working, but looking at that chart above it would have done you proud up til now and still hasn't actually failed as yet.

    with a chart that looks like that why wouldn't I be going short already? 🤨

    ah, you edited your post after I had replied, I would be wary of staying in short for too long during any retracement especially around these levels which is essentially the bottom of a consolidation period in what is still a bull market.

  7. Dow and Dax trying to hang onto their respective daily chart support levels (orange). Which way will the big players take this this week now they are all back at their desks could set the tone for the whole first quarter.

  8. The first full trading week of the year can often give an insight as to the thoughts of the big players who are looking at the longer term, will the theme be continued accumulation or reverse to distribution? 

    The Friday candle on the S&P chart is an interesting one, you might have thought a period of profit taking was due given the unfolding US/Iran drama, and especially on a Friday but after the breaking news and a big reversal down buyers stepped in yet again and bought price back up from the low around 3211 back up to Thursday's open at 3235. Again that is bull strength and confidence, can they keep it going? The direction the market takes tomorrow will be interesting.

    S&P daily chart.
