The Dow Jones has formed a lovely hammer off the short term uptrend to day which should be the 4th wave of this sequence.Note how it was also close to the 23.6% Fib and the hamme low formed at exactly the level of the candle bodies of the two earlier dojis.I'm targeting c. 16178 for the top of this move before a correction down towards, but not below, 14550.

Rather than try and catch the bottom on POG I'd planned to go long on a 123-low breakout but completely missed it due to being busy with other things. We can see the results, though, with a healthy number of pips to anyone who did take that trade.The thing to look out for now is that RSI. If it reverses off the trendline then it might be worth taking some profit. If it breaks through then it should indicate further rises but beware that tricky 123p level. Personally I think CNR or KAZ offer better risk reward than POG for those not already long here. Original link...

A very simple price only chart here and this is thanks to Remo who runs www.chartsview.co.uk who gave the heads-up on this during the live trading chat on his website today.What we have is a backtest of the 123-low breakout level. These trades are actually even better than simply trading the 123-low breakout if they work out because the resulting move, again if it works, ought to be stronger than the original breakout where doubt still remains and consequently we see the drop back to the breakout level.Normally I'd have a stop below the higher low but the doji offers a tighter option below 79.5p.

I thought I'd start this analysis with a really long term view using the daily chart as it shows the power of RSI trendline very nicely. We can also see the big bearish divergence at the recent high.What's interesting here is that this RSI uptrend support was hit again only a couple of days ago. In the past this has been the trigger for some decent rises but you never know when these trendlines are going to fail so is there anything else to support the hypothesis of a rise? In this near(er) term view we can see that price is at uptrend support and the 61.8% Fib as well as having formed a double inside bar pattern so there should be a decent move one way or the other. You can just make out that long term RSI support at the bottom of the chart too.I would definitely have...

Well, here we are at last back at the key 166p level but, no surprise, the SP closed just below.I still remain bullish here, not least because of the RSI which has continued upwards following its breakout, so we'll still have to wait for this key level to be taken out.With the meeting between Simon Murray and M&G taking place tomorrow, all eyes will be on the lookout for the resulting RNS but I suspect that if this is going to break out then it may well do so before the news comes. Only time will tell of course. Could be an interesting day tomorrow and the general markets remain bullish right into the close today too. Original link...
