- WE'RE JUST RANDOM SPECKS OF DUST IN A TORNADO TO THE MARKETS .......
- CHARTISTS MUST PUT ALL BIAS ASIDE AND LET THE CHARTS DO THE TALKING OR WE'LL SEE ONLY WHAT WE WANT TO SEE
- This blog has a copy of all header posts that I publish anywhere, so that those interested in seeing what my thoughts are on the markets can find them easily.
- I will be answering questions and responding to comments, so feel free to respond to any posts and I will see your comment even if it is not on the most recent post.
- If you're interested in seeing any intraday charts I post, I do that on twitter, and my twitter handle is @shjackcharts.
- The charts in the posts are as large as I can practically make them. if you would like to look at one more closely, click on it, and the link will take you to a larger version at screencast. If you click on that again, you will get a full page version, and can use the resizing function on your browser to enlarge parts of interest further.

One Last Heave

The triangle broke up as expected and SPX has made a new ATH with some confidence. This kind of setup delivers a termination move and that's what we are expecting here. That could fail at any time but the high window runs through to 7th February and we are expecting a high towards the end of the high window.

The usual sequence when a triangle breaks is that there is then a backtest of broken triangle resistance, often back into the triangle, and then the termination thrust (up in this instance) begins. That backtest doesn't always happen but most of the time it does, so I'm assuming we'll see that here as long as SPX stays under 2300. SPX 60min chart:
If we are going to see the backtest then there's a very decent looking rising wedge from yesterday's low. I watching to see whether that delivers the backtest here. ES Mar 60min chart:
Stan and I are doing a free educational webinar at theartofchart.net an hour after the close on tomorrow on the subject of 'Technical Patterns you can profit from'.
