  1. CF Looks like a monster if it plays out. Roughly 97 for a target???

  2. What does head and should imply? Good or bad sign?

  3. Inverted head and shoulders like we're seeing now is a bullish reversal pattern. Normal H&S is bearish.

  4. yeah I'd say ~$100 target for CF too, if I thought the ferts had anything left in them. Just don't think they do. Chart's busted - take a look at the 2 year.

  6. Hey Stewie, great bunch of charts. I just did a post on my blog about where folks can find a series of video tutorials on chart patterns.

  7. inverted head and shoulders is bullish, my target to it if it develops is SPY 1160, as crazy as that sounds. but its a rough measurement from neckline to head.

  8. these are INVERSE H&S patterns and they opposite the H&S topping pattern. these patterns are usually seen as bottoming formations.

  9. I enjoy your blog very much. However, can you elaborate on the money management method you employ when managing a trade? For example: (1) % capital risk per trade, (2) Setting of initial stop, (3) Moving stop to b/e, (3) Banking some profits, (4) Letting profits run.

    Thanks, Ralph

  10. Sky, I'm with you, CF definitely looks busted.

  11. Although I am slightly bullish, people should be careful and not expect a great rally. There are still many worried and weak investors out there. Deleveraging means less money in stocks.

  12. Thanks for the "heads up", Stewie. I'll be watching MBI for greater % gains. More risky tho', of course.
