Re: ASX 200-What Might Happen!
Interesting idea but if the first pattern had been replicated in the short term chart wouldn't the last test of support gone through instead of bouncing up? Still appears to be ranging inside that recent base, let's see if it pulls back or goes on to retest the all time highs.

Re: ASX 200-What Might Happen!
I did have that thought but was still struck by the fact that it is largely going sideways! I agree, time needs to be our friend on this one.

Re: ASX 200-What Might Happen!
Tech/A, The 1 Year chart certainly seems to anticipate a fall. I certainly don't expect it to break its resistance line too early.

Re: ASX 200-What Might Happen!
Thanks for the chart tech, I remember you posted it in the other XJO thread too, I should have checked a bar chart before commenting on the 3 sisters post- looks like it's left the base (rather than ranging within it) and is powering up, might retest the previous resistance (c4075 from memory?) imo as the recent rise has been steep.
(BTW, tech's chart is for the XAO so it'll look a bit different to the XJO but similar pattern imo.)

OBI
There is no right or wrong analysis.
Just different ways to look at the same thing.
Im undecided longterm but agree with what you see.

Re: ASX 200-What Might Happen!
I too am expecting a fall but that is based on sentiment / fundamentals and looking at chart patterns in individual stocks more than T/A.
Just wondering how you know that it will fall TOMORROW. I have looked at your charts and whilst I can see that a fall SOON is on the cards, I can't follow how it needs to be tomorrow?ob1kenobi said:

Re: ASX 200-What Might Happen!
I merely use tomorrow as the next part of the story. The graph is at a point where it may go down or just keep doing what its doing. I am expecting a fall though in the near term. Given that it finished well enough on Friday, I think tomorrow is a fair ask as it can have the effect of setting the tone for the market early in the week. I'm merely asking the question.

Re: ASX 200-What Might Happen!
Just wondering if people here have a fundamental view of the market?
I know, trade what you see not what you think, but right now there seem to be two distinct lines of thought. One says somewhere between 4600 - 5000 by the end of 2005. The other says the market made a major top in March and the low is more than 12 months away. There may be other views around too but I have encountered these two more than once.
Personally I think there have been too many "but the economy is strong..." types around over the past few months arguing why this, that or something else will/won't happen "becasue the economy is strong". And then I keep hearing reports about "difficult trading conditions" from here, there and everywhere. But then things like new car sales are still strong. I look at the flat bond yield curve and all the media publicity about China and commodities etc. and treat this as a contrarian indicator. I'm not an ultrabear predicting a crash but I don't think we're going to see 5000 any time soon. No doubt others will have valid reasons to disagree. Just wondering if anyone else has thoughts on this?

Re: ASX 200-What Might Happen!
Personally, I don't know why people have been saying it will reach 5000. Something akin to prophesising I think. How do they know? If they can predict that, why are they working? Surely, they could have already made their billions.

Re: ASX 200-What Might Happen!
Hey folks, there are a couple of other threads on the fundamentals of the market, have a look in ASX stock chat, best to post it there, you'll see more discussion about non-chart stuff.

Re: ASX 200-What Might Happen!
6850 + Snake. lol. Profits from a prophet.
Anyway present day now I`m thinking between 4450 and 4520 as the top for this bull run. Reason being that I`m comparing five bullish candles on the weekly and the top will be in the next few days and next week will see a dark cloud candle materialise. Playing it by eye.
Go bulls go, go bulls go, go bulls go.

Anyone expecting a down slide (ASX200)?
Hello All,
This is my first post so bare with me – I am new to investing and I was looking at getting in to the market. I am mainly interested in Australian Shares.
Do you think that there will be a decline in the ASX in Sept/Oct? seeing we hit a 11 month high this week would you expect there to be a correction.
I though that I would wait till the end of Oct until I get in, or should I get in now?
Cheers
Acies

Re: Anyone Expecting a down slide (ASX200)?
No.
Uncle Ben has saved the world and it's still raining cash. Dip buyers will be all over any down days, snapping up "bargains".
...and we all live happily ever after.
PS - Unless you're a very good looking woman, I'd prefer to bear with you than bare with you.

Re: Anyone expecting a down slide (ASX200)?
Decline in the ASX 200 equates to short ASX 200.
If your trading stock inside the ASX 200 then possible relevance.
If trading stocks outside the ASX 200 then it could quite possibly be an individual stock/index/trading methodology question.
I presume you are thinking long not short.
Its really a question which relates only to the ASX 200

Moved thread and generalised topic so we don't have too many ASX 200 analysis threads.
Re: commercials are having a ball
Fridays play on the asx 200 and the spi was nothing short of a set up by the commercials to Fleece the market. The spi opens 20 points below sycom close then proceeds to drop through a strong support line trigerring long stops and new wave of technical sellers. Then from about 11am to 4pm they ramp the market from the week lows to the week highs triggering most technical short stops and attracting new technical longs. The market technically looks strong. They do everything they can to mask the real move and catch Joe average retail trader on the wrong side before the real move starts. Today the market has opened low again however this time there could be to many weak traders not prepared to sell it again and caught long which may allow this to finally start to drop. This is just one example of why in the short term the commercials hold all the cards.
