Any Tips For Monday?

Sunday - 22 June 2008
4.25 p.m. - Malaysian Time

The CPO market for September's contract open at 3545 and closed at 3551. The highest was at 3557 and lowest was at 3525.

If you refer to one of my forecast on last Friday ( see # 7), the market open at 3545 ( open below 3555 ) and ended up a white bar but up to this moment I still am looking for a mechanism on how to enter the market if the market opens way too high or too low from the previous day's highest / lowest.

There was a not -very clear pattern of 2 bottoms ( you must know how to recognise between the 2 and 3 bottoms ) which the 2nd bottom occurred after 4.45 p.m. Since the 2nd bottom happened at this hour, so it is not adviseable to long here.

Tomorrow

The way I look at it, in a very short term, I would say the market is still bearish. In brief, here is my forecast for Monday's market ;

1) If the market opens between the level 3535 to 3545. Sell if the market moves up a bit ( I think those who have been following me may have the idea of how to go about it ). Careful if the market opens and starts to move up quickly and in a steep gradient, if this happens the market may go up further especially if it beats up the level between 3555 to 3563. If this happens a white bar may be formed at the end of the day. If the market opens and later beats down the level between 3514 to 3525, the market may fall further but may rebounce back.

2)If the market opens between the level 3545 to 3555 . Buy after the markets has beaten the level between 3555 to 3563.

3) If the market opens between the level 3525 to 3535. Sell after the market has beaten down the level between 3516 to 3525.

4)If the market opens between the level 3555 to 3581. Buy after the market has fallen a bit after opening or if the fall is so small, buy after 3 points above the opening level.

5)If the market opens above 3581. It is your call. I don't know what to say, man.

6)If the market opens between 3498 to 3525.It is your call and I am speecless but I think the market will end a white bar if the market opens and starts to move up without retracing back passing down the opening point.

7)You can also look for trendlines such as 3 tops ..etc. Don't forget your stop loss ...blah...blah

Well, good luck....and have a nice trading day!

Hi Sham,

As far as I am cocerned I have attended only one technical course.But the so- called guru, during the course, only showed me the day or the moment where his technical methods worked and encouraged me to buy his software. Furthermore if their methods are so good, how come they have to advertise from time to time in newspaper? Where is the word of mouth? How about you, have you ever attended any courses? You said your work is mostly glued to computer. Are you a computer programmer/analyst/engineer?

Hi Nick,

I have attended a few courses like swing trading by Bill,paid a bomb for that one. But my first intro to technical analysis was fred tham (his company i think is capital one, cant remember)Paid rather a lot too, but i manage to understand each posible indicater in metastock. I have attended some by jacintha something too. But after all this courses and using technical indicaters with canggih software such as Nextview and telequaate.. I finally realize price action that should be used.Can you believe i just use simple price action chart now provided by itrade. But refer to my broker if i must know an indicater. Dumb ? well it has worked better for me.. But as i said i find my self in a roundabout ,so my strategies definately needs to be changed soon. Otherwise i will just have to throw in the towel...

As for what i do... well i am in the engineering field, at least i studied it, short of a PHD . Use to have a respectable job , then fell in love with cpo . So i found a dumb job ( its too dumb to mention) that gives me all the time in the world to trade. I am starting to think it is not a good thing now....

Alright maybe i need a break from cpo... So its back to paper trading till i find a way to break free..
