While the Diary of a Mad Hedge Fund Trader focuses on investment over a one week to six-month time frame, Mad Day Trader, provided by Jim Parker, will exploit money-making opportunities over a brief ten minute to three day window. It is ideally suited for day traders, but can also be used by long-term investors to improve market timing for entry and exit points.
Stocks...
SHCOMP...is the best preforming equity market. Look for a retest of 34800-35600.
It's very overbought.
Line...needs to hold above 12 to test the high 14's again.
Follow the Natgas.
Bonds ...
30 yr. Bonds... there is a possible short term double top on the daily charts @ 145.30.
Closing above this level will lead to more upside in the Bonds.
FX...
EURO....elected the 2010 sell stops @118.78 on the Greek Exit rumors last night.
Sell Rallies/Not breaks. 116.40 is the next level of interest with resting stops below.
USD/JPY...there is no upside to the Yen unless there is a close under 118.60 ( over 84.30 Futures)
GBP/USD...153.50 was multi-year fib support. Support is now resistance.
Commodities...
OIL...54 will remain pivotal. Price action and a close over 55.50 resistance is needed to get excited about the long side.
Rallies continue to fail at resistance. I still have the 49 handle as a 1st possible downside swing count.
Trade the price action. Sell rallies not breaks.
Natgas...put in an ORL year. Minimally this needs price action over 3.05 and a closes over 3.19 to rally.
Copper...272.65 is mvg avg support. I'm bearish copper below 2.95. Sell rallies not breaks.
