The 4800 support level proved to be little or no support with the xao closing out the week at 4787. The bears pushed it lower to 4757 during the day but it was able to recover 30 points before close.

The next support level is 4675. Fasten you seatbelts everyone, we are flying through some turbulence at the moment and our direction is less certain.

I'm not sure if it's completely broken yet. Yesterdays recovery was pretty good. However, if 4800 is tested and fails, probably yes. Could be setting up for a decent inverse head and shoulders too. Keep an eye on that.

reckon the probability of holding fridays close is remote and head and shoulders is a shampoo
 
Re: XAO Analysis

Very symmetrical 5 waves down on the XAO.

I'm certainly a novice waver... but it looks like being close to being finished if things play out to give a neat 5 waves. The down waves are parallel currently, we'd need to continue falling quickly to maintain that. Also interesting that the volume is much lower compared to the March low.

Possibly of little concern but the XSO is sitting right on support.

Re: XAO Analysis

Down another 60 today and I can't see anything joyful going on in the world of finance that would encourage me to believe there is a prospect of a bounce before 4650. Hope i'm wrong.

If the xao can't hold 4650 then it's a case of strap on a life preserver and take to the life boats. The ship is sinking.

Re: XAO Analysis

Certainly moving on down and price is king but not a lot of volume seems lack of buying rather than fund managers rushing for the door not to say things wont pick up

Re: XAO Analysis

daily and 60m . bounce on 60m would not surprise at all with range repetition albeit taking a lot longer (less momentum) . 4687 reference level upside short term with yest low key dside . on daily it looks a little shakey with march swing low the key from here . with lower low and higher high the bias is in the balance

Re: XAO Analysis

The xao bounced from just above the lower trend line. Driven by strong gains in the financial sector plus the major miners, the xao added 72 points helping reverse earlier falls.

Little has changed on the international markets regarding sovereign debt. The perspective of an impending Australian housing bubble set to burst, still hangs over our mortgage market which relies on overseas markets for about 40% of funding.

It is still possible the shorters will try and push the market down until we have the housing market collapse they are prediciting but I suspect they don't have a lot of room to move from here. Bargain hunters obviously jumped in over the last few days to buy up anything being pushed into the market.

Re: XAO Analysis

Moving down in a channel of sorts no volume to indicate shorts being squeezed yet also not the sort of move down that I would think to many shorts would get set

Interesting the current market mood all the same

testing lows on daily and looking to channel support , march lows seem so close they need to be tested . NFP in US is a pivotal release and may well set the trend for weeks to come . many cycle gurus use NFP as turn dates

Re: XAO Analysis

Type C bullish divergence, we're at support, good close of the lows today on increased volume. What's more June is typically a good month when considering seasonality.

Have to trade what I see so I have put a pending long order on one stock. Nevertheless, I have that sinking feeling like I imagine many have others have as well so I have halved my risk.

Will pull my order is Dow Jones breaks 12093 overnight.
 
Re: XAO Analysis

Feelings are hundreds of times more reliable, accurate and immediate than logic. The 'sinking feeling' should be what drives your decisions, sammy.

So long as a trader has a positive mindset regarding his trading, a sentiment approach to decision making is far, far superior to both TA and FA. However, if he lacks this core attitude of positivity, well nothing will work anyway, not sentiment, not TA nor FA. Nuthin' will work, no matter how sophisticated.

edit: if a trader has a poor mindset, then what feels right will be wrong and vice versa. See?
