AmenRa's Corner

A place where a skillful caddy always offers cool contemplation when it comes to your "stick" selection.



Creditcane™: I tried a take down move. It didn't work.



SPX
Bearish harami day. Midpoint above EMA(10). Still above all SMA's. No test of 0.0% retrace. No daily 3LB changes (reversal is 1276.34). QE2infinity. Finally conquered 1300? Or is it a trap?



DXY
Bullish thrusting day (not morning star because body didn't gap lower). Midpoint below EMA(10). Still below the 14.6% retrace (77.54). Below all SMA's. Next test is the 0.0% at 75.63. No daily 3LB changes (reversal is 78.13).



VIX
Bearish short day. Midpoint below EMA(10). Still above SMA(21). New low on daily 3LB (reversal is 20.04). Still out of the "no fear" zone. Currently has a monthly 3LB reversal.



GOLD
Bearish short day. Midpoint below EMA(10). 0.0% retrace holding. Tested and passed the 38.2% retrace (1328.33). Closed right at the upper trend line. No daily 3LB changes (reversal is 1347.90). Must have the precious.

ThX! Ra, might look like "18's" new support may be 1296. Sure hugged 1305 level all day. A bust above 1332 and 18 sez we'll see 1375 (on the Major 18 scale) this year.

AAIP,

he could have been, Ra's a slick dude, and it would also figure the one time I catch a typo it'd be on purpose.

@all,

did anyone read that Soprano's link I put up last night? I thought it was compelling.

Any thoughts?

AmenRa said...

Thanks Ben. Fixed.

AAIP: hmmm word of the day.

though, to your Q:, no, didn't read it -- wasn't, really, a Soprano's fan..

AAIP,

A few years ago I had this idea that MHS would be a great stock due to all the Rx people were eating as three meals a day. I still think that's worth exploring at the right price.

As for Soprano's, it wasn't for everyone, I've always been into the gangster shows/movies, I thought the stories were awesome on Soprano's I was into it from season 1 but after reading that thread I've got a whole new respect for the people that made it, they were true artists.

I also thought JG was fantastic as Tony, right down to the way he would breathe to make the character right.

I'm bummed that nobody commented on my MUSICAL LINK TO THE CHINESE NEW YEAR (tomorrow)...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2FrrzLUkoU&feature=related

That's a totally mellow song...

"Year of the Cat" = "Year of the Rabbit"...

Some Asian cultures acknowledge it as CAT, others as RABBIT...

That's what we enter in to tomorrow...

CV said...

FWIW...

Mixing western & eastern zodiacs...

CV is a TAUREAN (western) + RAT (eastern), with a DRAGON ascendant...

Sir William Shakespeare was a TAUREAN/RAT/DRAGON combo... I'd have liked to have known him... Maybe I did???

karen said...

CV, I am truly enjoying your Year of the Cat link at this moment.. in front of my fire with a glass of Argentinian cab.. lovely! and thank you for pressing the point..

earlier, I was also with mouth watering over the pizza makings..

Andy T said...

CV--

Billy D. Shakespeare was only a 'beard,' or, a cover for someone else.

He didn't write anything....

Don't aspire...

bwahhahahhhahah

What a weird day in Houston-ville.

Sounds like this whole town is going to be covered in snow in 48 hours. It didn't snow here for 20 years before 2004. Now, it's becoming a regular occurrence....funny stuff, that.

CV said...

@Andy

Don't worry... I don't spend much time "ASPIRING"...

I mostly just "PERSPIRE"... That's where I find the best tranqulity...

And THANKS karen for THE YEAR OF THE CAT appreciation...

Fire, cab, and that song... Man, if someone can't mellow out with that combo, then they are truly UNMELLOWOUTABLE...

See? I think I WAS William Shakespeare... WHO ELSE would pen words like "UNMELLOWOUTABLE" (in CAPS LOCK no less)... :-)

karen said...

Weather/Natural Catastrophe alone, could make any and all of Chet's warnings and cautions prophetic.. I am getting prepared. You think what is happening in Egypt couldn't happen here? Perhaps far, far worse here.. the class of underprivileged is scary.

"The latest inflation fighting strategy in a world that has now completely forgotten the threat of "disinflation", and instead is relishing 30 year highs in sugar and 150 year highs in cotton, comes from Belgium where supermarket chain Delhaize has been exposed as coercing 120 franchisers to sell products at a loss. As a result, said franchisers, formerly on very good terms with the supermarket operator, have organized themselves into an interest group with its own steering committee to make their grievances heard. And while the outcome of this escalation will certainly not be pleasant for any of the parties involved, one thing is certain: prices at both Delhaize supermarkets, and Belgian competitors who follow suit, are about to surge as retailers have no choice but to seek avoiding bankruptcy through reindexing prices. Which makes us wonder just how many supermarket stores and grocery retailer in the US use comparable tactics? But have no fear: according to the CPI, food inflation in December at 0.1% was the lowest it has been in five months. And with nobody having the guts to tell Bernanke that the food emperor is completely naked, we are 100% confident that everyone in America will be able to afford the 0.1% increase in food prices."
