This is what the Dow is up to over the last three weeks...
These charts are being posted to show the importance of paying attention to weekly and longer term charts ....
Without analysing longer term charts... it is very difficult to see where true resistance or support is located ....
Applying retracements in my humble opinion is like any other analysis - highly subjective...
What I have found that works for me... is I read something very profound that W.D. Gann spoke of which was to take a significant low and a significant high and divide it by 8 .......
Take the number 1.... for example
Then divide the number by 8
That would give you these numbers
12.50 %
25.00 %
38.00 %
50.00 %
62.00 %
75.00 %
87.50 %
These numbers have a striking resemblance to Fibonacci retracement numbers as you can see...
Anyway, this is what I have found through my studies ... actually work for me ... it may not work for you ... but that is why they are markets... because of all our difference of opinions .....
This website is supposed to be a place where we can all come in and respectfully exchange our difference of opinions.
For without this there would be no market place ....
By the way W.D. Gann died being a very wealthy man... He made money in the markets ...
I cannot say the same for Nelson Elliot .... or Leonardo Fibonacci ..... they didn't make any money in the markets .... read about the man himself to find this out ....
Until my next post
Live well, and prosper ......
