User [mike] left forum at Tue Apr 11 20:17:17 EDT 2000 how long have the bonds distributed? the sideways action only gace u a counr for about a week User [mike /171.215.29.247] joined forum at Tue Apr 11 20:17:40 EDT 2000 so there is not enough cuase at this point for a sustain down move cause vs effect. a market can accumalte and distribute for a week and start a major move up or down like is there is a quarter tank of gas gary that was one of Peggy's questions the other night about the signifance of a trendline and a horizontal line converging.. you would have an impossible time travling very far that is a great question I believe that many times the tendline (sloping line) will coincide with horizontal support that is one of the things I look for I thinkmit is very significant and i said they were significant when they were same area.. and amos said i was finessing it :-) so I am sorry I didnt answer it the other night pardon the spelling but i find it paramont to follow oh i do remember on a scale of 1 to 10, where does it fall? I can spell but cant type I even won a spelling bee :) but you sure can out talk us, son to me a 9 lol peggy User [amos /62.0.146.71] joined forum at Tue Apr 11 20:21:34 EDT 2000 trendlines weather support or resisatnce hi amos hi amos are in a sense arbitraury hello, sorry hi amos but when u REACT evening, Amos from precived support or resistance Hi amos this means that what you identified amos is very very important if u can draw proper trendlines and proper horizontal lines this is the Key to sucess if you can also identify is it accumaultion or distributiobn to the whole world head and shoulders is easy at what price level is the horizonatal line? but it really menas nothing to me the 9600 area is critical in bonds but head a shoulders is a gimmick you must watch the markets actions because a "head and shoulders" could still mean a big up move will occur at beat it is a 50 -50 guess best amos since you mentioned the bonds the other day do u want to comment on them What if an inverted head and shoulders appears after support has shown excellant reaction? The only thing I wanted to say is that this is a good example how you must watch those stupid recent highs and lows and see how the market reacts to them. I was mentioning that there isnt much cause in the bonds to break significantly from this level I did mention that REACTIONS The last high at 99-26 was followed by a rather strong decline. We cam e all the way to it, the market tried to puse from support or resisatnce the force of the selling or buying is critical for stops above 99-26--- when there was none--they all turned around and sold. IF you used a 15 min thrust--you would be able to sell around 00-12-99-16 wi the very close stop. If you can do such trades again and again.....you have a good business. (as Peggy mentioned last night) where do u think the bonds can go to? I have no idea where they would go, the only point with high LOK was the 99-26. Now we have to llok for support--you tell me where is next signficant support? do u have a cause to where they can go? User [Jimbo /63.31.234.125] joined forum at Tue Apr 11 20:29:16 EDT 2000 I mentioned that the 9616 to 9600 area hi jimbo That sounds good. If anyone can look at the 4X3 Point and figure--the bonds are very predictable on that count. hey mrj 95-24 so the 9600 area is decent then okay thank you fibo Again, it depends how we get there--if we react straight down--chances are the market will run out of gas. If we strickly down and the market builids cause as we go along-- it can go much lower. well if we distribute at these levels the market will build cause It depends on the monthly and weekly. amos u mentioend that the daily was up weekly sideways and monthly down yesterday how would u handle the market would u look for support to buy or would u look for resisatnce to sell? from a daily definition point of view you could say we had a PLS and BC and today was the beginning of AR. yes I see that class do u see what amos is talking about? You can scalp long at 95-24, asw fibo said. User [chris /63.14.212.94] joined forum at Tue Apr 11 20:32:53 EDT 2000 y hi chris y chris hi chris yes y hi y any other questions on bonds? What is the yield at 100 anyone knows? I thought they changed froma 8 percent yield about 6 ..not sure to a 6 percent yield so par or 100 I think is 6 percent now so 100 is exactly 6% or a little lower? yes.. cocoa weekly I have found many times It would help to look at a long term yield chart and see if there is clearer picture that in a downtrend if u draw a line thru support slpoing that this teendline will give u support though the market is making new lows User [SteveF. /216.76.154.97] joined forum at Tue Apr 11 20:36:20 EDT 2000 0% the pound did that 2 weeks ago and look at the cocoa trendline I drew it came in at the 750 area do u see that line y y no chart y y y y y y y if u look at november as PS y prelimary support Sherry- charts in archives then a reaction to resisatnce a tad above 900 in mid Nov then a break to new lows thanks in late feb I beleiev this could be the SC sellin cliamx the reaction back to ressiatnce at the 950 area now we are reting support I believe we are building cause so a trading range here could take some time or may react a bit from here but that trendline I drew for me it works well I dont know if it is wyckoff but i fiind that it pinpoints sipport and resistance questions? brb User [sal] left forum at Tue Apr 11 20:42:00 EDT 2000 I want to mention did any one see John bolinger on CNBC? not i he was on ino.com a week ago n he mentioend wyckoff rfering to the Nasdaq he is trying to perfect a system using volume and thinking that there would be a retest of the lows but we kinda know this as wyckoff students yes he is User [SDTREKKER /152.203.92.171] joined forum at Tue Apr 11 20:43:40 EDT 2000 he wants to use his bands with volume yes welcome SD hi SD that would be interesting hi sd hi Ds woops SD Class SD is one of this classes original students he was in the first classes welcome SD Thank you. It's been a long time. quesrion s on cocoa Hello SD hi SD I know and I miss u personally howdy sd How long ago SD? I want to talk about a market that we havent mentione din awhile 7 or 8 months. great and why as amos said that long term charts are very very important you can only see this on a monthly chart User [amos /62.0.146.71] joined forum at Tue Apr 11 20:46:25 EDT 2000 look at the monthly crude SD amos has been studying yckoff for over 22 years he is one of our teachers now Amos SD was one of the original people in this class a very very nice person is he the supply /demand man? look at the low in crude in 1986 one of the best epopel u will ever meet like veryone here : ) None of the above, Amos. Not supply/demand, not man see the low at 10 :) LOL the market reacted to 23 area see this in mid 87 y y y y after the market going to 23 y y the market had to have some type orf retest in did late 88 back to about 1250 area the point is that it took a Gulf war and 13 yrs for the market to retest the key support at 10 so if you were watching the charts last yrs february to be exact you could have bought a 13 yr retest on a monthly this is probaly the highest LOK there is the highest risk to reward trade a double bottom on a monthly this only gave u a move of about 25 k but if u look and it is obvious DID YOU BUY? I must say I did for clients you make me proud gary But i am embarssed to say where i got out 11? I got out at 1250 after buying at 1050 area LOL lol ooof I had been in several times but not really in after the market went above 22 isn'r 20/20 great? was there a ll on monthly I am too narrow minded sometimes ice melted? well in this case sherri I was stupid that word is conservative gary I shoud have rolled over yes SD still made money I am not proud that I identified it and missed 80, percent of the move but u see the Power of the monthly but I giess when i and many poeple identified the stock market being bullish in 82 not many people rode that train either but do you see why using a monthly and weekly are very important y y y I must admit I dont use them enough y y y y I will say that amos identified monthly resistance of coffee at the 275 area several yrs ago BTW the same picture we just saw in bonds exists as of tonite in the DOW at 11418! a monthly doulble top do u remeber this amos? I have my own horror stories. wuld u sell that area in the dow amos? I know u do as I If you get a sell signal on the intraday and you can have a reasonable stop loss? Of course!!! question s on crude to me this chart is the classic monthly if you look at the weekly crude chart u will notice the cause that build built in 98n thru 99 User [Frank /207.230.57.49] joined forum at Tue Apr 11 20:59:02 EDT 2000 hey frank hi Frank hello Frank a whole yr cause lead to a 22 dollar rally !!!! hi, Frank.

So fra it is going down. It has to go above 210.17 on the cash daily to start a rally. These are the two important points. Beyond this it is a guess. amos can the market retest the 19400 area and still be in its trading range accumulting? I do not see it. a retest of the creek do u have the chart I sent? what does the volume look like? is that line (horizontal) not significant to u? That will mean beans going to 460, gold to 250, crude to 20 cotton to 50 no volume with this cash chart sd do you see this? possible. but highly unlikely. well if crude goes to 15 i see that. But do you EVER get volume? you're fired amos :) You can substitute futures volume under cash have to get a vendor that gets this sd -> u ever hear of Anne-Sophie Mutter. She plays a heck of a violin i do that is I am still of the opinion that we are just groping for April lows in many commoditieys and once we find -> no Frank Not too much into music them--we are going much higher in commdtities. from gold to beans to coffee They all have positive chart pattern of asome sort of accumulation and not of distribution amos can u spend a few minutes on the beans and the corn charts that I sent? yes amos but those accumulations are on long term charts have you noticed that other than energy--most markets are meandering in the last few days--kind of waiting for GUdot? ??? GUdot? Famous play by Brecht I think "waiting for Gudot" Beckett At least I got one letter tifht right LOL amos, think futures waiting for nasdaq & dow? no no no no do not ever use this correlation. It cost people fortunes. Judge each market for itself. I am not against relative strength judgment within sectors-but euating bonds with inflation is so costly. and the stock market is juust y a place for smart money to play. no connection between commodities and stock market. remember, when you make these analyises--you are pretending to KNOW the market and that you are a small CM. We are not CM Even Linda Raschke talks about the CM and admits that everything is maniuplated. trying to be a piggyback CM If you read her 50 aphorisms of market wisdo--- they are better than usual. They concetnrate on the significance of the trader and his mindset -> remember the guy from Texas ansd Sue? At any rate--I said above that many markets seem to wait for something--this is usuallyu the lull before some kind of storm. where did you find that amos? mrci.com -> lol -> does david ever mention linda? under what heading amos?

Right now we are coiling in many markets into a coil. -> he needs a girlfriend :) I think this is just the time to wait for a breakout. -> I did. sent small $ to start -> lol! i agree -> i was kidding -> I know!!! A weekly buy signal on some of the commodities mentioned- may be the best answer. Even tho it will I still love triangles amos -> that is why he is angry :) present a rather wide stop loss.
