alf44...can't argue with you, the trend is down, we still have some major moving averages to overcome before we can turn this thing around and it helps if you have a short time frame.

..."it helps if you have a short time frame..."
--------------------------------------------------------
YES...AND...NO !!!
Actually...I try to remind myself...ALWAYS...of my LONGER TERM...Market bias...(ie... currently BEARISH) ... and take trades that fit...within that "LONGER TERM" bias !!! fwiw
The TREND IS DOWN !!!
Regards,
alf44
PS. Doesn't mean you don't ALSO take "LONG" trades (ie. BULLISH positions) ...
...just know that within the overall "bias"...these trades MAY be "counter-trend trades" !!!
Therefore...TRADE ACCORDINGLY !!!

VIX...it needs to break above the majenta trendline as shown in chart for the market to continue up, if it doesn't then we go short.

VIX...some serious moving averages need to be broken, ema(34) and ema(100) and don't forget upper BBand. We could see some sideways meandering for the rest of the summer.

Looks like all the oil forces are aligning themselves. Hang in there longs.

johnpaulca, I am impressed with your approach and clearly your results, I notice you use NeoTicker and I am not familiar with some of the indicators you use. I have been using stockcharts and have had good luck with it, but I would love to know more about your indicators.
