Hi, not sure about the volume but there have been a number of web based scanners discussed on the forum you might want to take a look at, just enter scanners or screeners in the forum search box.

LOL brilliant, I absolutely love this game;

Always a possibility, the daily has taken on a nice twin reversal pattern look about it, this last hour of play should be telling before the US market close.

It was the US open that did it and if you look at the Sunday 1 hour bar as a weekend gap then what we are seeing now since the US open is a gap fill, interesting.

I I see the S&P has fallen away too after setting a new ATH and the US manu PMI figure this afternoon was ok and no other big news that I've seen so the move up turned out to be a test of resistance which was confirmed and price is now is looking to test support. It may find it around here at 26640, if not will need to look lower at around 26520.

After the surge this morning both back down towards the pivot and dropping below in Dow's case.

Backs away from 60, no major news out of the OPEC meeting today though seems unlikely to be any changes to production numbers.

A round trip for Gold today after this mornings post, down to retest support at 1381 then back up to retest resistance around 1396 and now down at 1390.

S&P sets a new all time high, Dow struggling a bit and getting left behind today.

Not sure what your trigger for entry was but at a glance it looks like a case of getting in late. This can happen when you are trying to look at too many charts and keen to get a trade on. Always spot where the First Trouble Area is and check it's not so close to the entry point that you have no lee way if things go wrong and you run straight into another pullback. The prior low for a short is the FTA and if the reversal to continue the trend entry has been missed then as price passes the FTA is a second opportunity to get in short (a breakout entry).

Thanks, but without reading the whole thread is the trigger the Awesome zero crossover (if everything is lined up)?

But the Europe branch is based in Cyprus and comes under the Cyprus regulator which though may have improved just lately have a terrible reputation for protecting clients. It was only a few years ago Chinese clients hired a plane to go to Cyprus to demonstrate on mass outside the Cysec offices.

I've forgotten what it is you were using as a trigger for entry?

Hmmm, Cyprus registered broker and USD account, think I'm ok as is thanks.

BTC finds support at 10600 and recent resistance at 11173. Key support is 10281.

US Oil looks set to breakout up past 60.

Both Dax and Dow push up on the London open, Dax has R1 just ahead at 12650 while Dow has the weekly chart resistance level at 26909 and the monthly chart (and R1) resistance at 26951.
