Sugar Trading for Wednesday, January 23

The Pattern Trapper Market Update Blog is a companion piece to the FREE! Daily Pattern Signals Report.

For maximum benefit be sure to check out the On-Line Course.

 

The March Sugar contract has fired 2 Day ROC Sell, 90-10 Low Continuation, High Breakout Continuation Setup, and Momentum Pinball Buy signals for today's trading. The 2 Day ROC Sell signal implies that today's principal trade direction should be to the downside. The 90-10 Low Continuation signal tells us that yesterday's late day move lower is likely to continue on into today. The High Breakout Continuation Setup signal implies significant upside IF yesterday's high happens to be taken out. The Momentum Pinball Buy signal suggests that we'd want to consider longs if price is strong enough to break the first hour high. Cycle Indicators (chart at right) have moved into a region where short term cyclical lows often form, but both the larger and more immediate trends are to lower prices. Odds favor continued downside in today's early trading. Sell the break of yesterday's 18.08 low with a stop just above the 18.23 level of the Daily Pivot. Price weakness below the DP may provide clues for earlier entry. The Momentum Pinball Buy signal tells us to change our bias to the upside on a break of the first hour high. The High Breakout Continuation Setup suggests that we've likely marked a multi-day swing pivot low if yesterday's 18.50 high happens to be taken out to the upside.

Feeder Cattle Trading for Thursday, January 17

The Pattern Trapper Market Update Blog is a companion piece to the FREE! Daily Pattern Signals Report.

For maximum benefit be sure to check out the On-Line Course.

 

The March Feeder Cattle contract has fired 2 Day ROC Sell, 90-10 Low Continuation & Reversal, and Momentum Pinball Buy signals for today's trading. The 2 Day ROC Sell signal implies that today's principal trade direction should be to the downside. The 90-10 Low Continuation & Reversal signal tells us to look for morning follow through on the weak close, but to expect a likely reversal once the initial move has bottomed. The Momentum Pinball Buy signal suggests that IF the first hour's high happens to be broken, the market is telling us something completely different than originally assessed, and we'd want to consider a long position. Cycle Indicators (chart at right) have moved into a region where short term cyclical lows often form, but the more immediate trend is to lower prices. Odds favor continued downside in today's early trading. Look for an opportunity to sell the break of yesterday's 148.100 low or even earlier if price demonstrates weakness below the 149.025 level of the Daily Pivot. But stand prepared to exit or even reverse if we get appropriate price reversal patterns and/or Oscillator Divergence near important support levels. Our Normal Low Range Projection level of 146.900 or the Extended Low Range Projection level of 145.900 would be likely areas for such a reversal to take place, as would a test and failure of yesterday's low. The Momentum Pinball Buy signal tells us to assume an upside bias if the first hour high happens to be taken out.

Gold Trading for Wednesday, January 16

The Pattern Trapper Market Update Blog is a companion piece to the FREE! Daily Pattern Signals Report.

For maximum benefit be sure to check out the On-Line Course.

 

The February Gold contract has fired 2 Day ROC Buy, 90-10 High Continuation & Reversal, and Low Breakout Continuation Setup signals for today's trading. The 2 Day ROC Buy signal implies that today's principal trade direction should be to the upside. The 90-10 High Continuation & Reversal signal is telling us to look for morning follow through on the strong close, but to expect a likely reversal once the initial move has topped. The Low Breakout Continuation Setup signal implies significant downside IF yesterday's low happens to be taken out. Cycle Indicators (chart at right) are moving into a region where short term cyclical tops often form, but the more immediate trend is to higher prices. Odds favor continued upside in today's early trading. Buy the break of yesterday's 1684.9 high, or even earlier if price can demonstrate strength above 1678.3 level of the Daily Pivot. But stand prepared to exit or even reverse if we get appropriate price reversal patterns and/or Oscillator Divergence near important resistance levels. Our Normal High Range Projection level of 1693.3 or the Extended High Range Projection level of 1700.4 would be likely areas for such a reversal to take place, as would be a test and failure of yesterday's high.

The 2 Day ROC Sell signal implies that today's principal trade direction should be to the downside. The 90-10 Low Continuation signal tells us that yesterday's late day move lower is likely to continue on into today.

Cycle Indicators (chart at right) appear as if a short term cyclical top has recently been marked. Odds favor further downside in today's early trading. Look for an opportunity to sell the break of yesterday's 1.0843 low with a stop just above the 1.0891 level of the Daily Pivot. Price weakness below the DP may provide clues for earlier entry. The Momentum Pinball Buy signal tells us to change our bias to the upside on a break of the first hour high.

The March British Pound contract has fired 2 Day ROC Buy, 90-10 High Continuation & Reversal, and Momentum Pinball Sell signals for today's trading. The 2 Day ROC Buy signal implies that today's principal trade direction should be to the upside. The 90-10 High Continuation & Reversal signal is telling us to look for morning follow through on the strong close, but to expect a likely reversal once the initial move has topped. The Momentum Pinball Sell signal suggests that IF the first hour's low happens to be broken, the market is telling us something completely different than originally assessed, and we'd want to consider a short position. Cycle Indicators (chart at right) appear as if a short term cyclical low has just been marked, and both the larger and more immediate trends are to higher prices. Odds favor continued upside in today's early trading. Look for an opportunity to buy the break of yesterday's 1.6164 high, or even earlier if price can demonstrate strength above 1.6104 level of the Daily Pivot. But stand prepared to exit or even reverse if we get appropriate price reversal patterns and/or Oscillator Divergence near important resistance levels. Our Normal High Range Projection level of 1.6231 or the Extended High Range Projection level of 1.6294 would be likely areas for such a reversal to take place, as would be a test and failure of yesterday's high. Several other currency futures contract have fired comparable signals and can be traded in very similar fashion.

Testimonial

"I have found your service to not only be accurate but extremely educational. It is the perfect tool to use to create a winning game plan. All material is presented clearly and backed up with detailed explanations of the methodology being used.

In my ten years as a professional trader I've learned that there's no magic "system" but the tools taught in the Pattern Trapper combined with hard work will give you the "edge" that every trader desires."

Testimonial

"This is a rare gem of a course. Throughout you get the undeniable feeling of being guided by someone who possesses great learning, maturity and experience. This is the first time that I have felt I have truly got my money's worth (and more) on any course. Thank you. You have my greatest respect."

"I've taken a number of trading courses and seminars over the years, and have still managed to make all the classic mistakes and consistently lost money. But in the Pattern Trapper I found the one thing that had been missing from all of my previous trading efforts....Structure!  It is a completely new revelation to me, and it is at the core of your teachings. Nowhere else have I seen such a simple, logical blueprint for creating and implementing a consistent trading plan."

Testimonial

"Over the last three years I've taken many weekend courses given by numerous self-proclaimed experts. The information offered in the Pattern Trapper was found to be far superior. For the first time I see the same underlying structure in the market as the professional floor trader sees. Your course is well worth the price, and, I might add, well worth the time spent."

"You've done many of us a tremendous service by synthesizing so much material and years of experience into such a structured methodology for approaching the markets."

"You've probably heard it hundreds of times but... I am really enjoying your course! The way you present it enables me to grasp the concepts quickly. My first run through the entire course will be complete this weekend. I'm excited to watch the markets next week from an entirely different viewpoint!"

"This is perfect for day-trading because it offers a way of arriving at entry and exit points that make sense. As former Education Director at Lind-Waldock I can't think of one person who asked for a refund after taking the course. Call me for a personal consultation on how you can incorporate the Pattern Trapper into your current trading strategy: 312-399-1851."

Neal Weintraub - author of Tricks Of The Active Trader and Trading Chicago Style

Testimonial

"After 30 plus years of successful trading, why on earth would I take The Pattern Trapper trading course? After so many years it's so easy to get a bit lazy, take shortcuts and thereby get a bit careless now and then. I heard from other professional traders that I should take a look at Pattern Trapper and I am so glad I did.

For the professional, Pattern Trapper is a refresher course for trading with discipline. I am back to doing what made me successful and I thank your course and service for that. Pattern Trapper is now part of my daily routine and we all know that routine is so very important in trading consistently.

For those who want to learn the methods and discipline of trading, I recommend the Pattern Trapper as a worthwhile addition to your daily routine."
