EUR/USD Head & Shoulders Pattern

I posted this chart earlier today but it is worth pointing out again.  What's at work here is a  14 month long head & shoulders pattern in the EUR/USD.  If it works out text book it should fall to the 1.20 area at the very least.  We may start building a short position in FXE […]

Silver – A Level To Watch

Much like Gold (GLD), Silver (SLV) has a wedge pattern on its chart.  Unlike gold however the SLV looks heavy…i.e. the chances of a break lower seem higher than in Gold. A solid daily close below the $29.80 level in the SLV may just give us a better entry level for a downside trade.

Bucket 2: We Are Long SPY

We are long SPY at $127.25 Profit target around 129 but would likely take the cue off teh S&P 500 itself, if it gets near 1300 we would certainly take full profits. Stops are near 124.50 Don't feel entirely comfortable with the trade but we sized it accordingly.
