you can get the wyckoff lesson book from your local bookstore or library or on-line. it's pretty simple stuff and why not learn it yourself and see how you do using it as your chief analytical tool? the guy i knew thirty years ago who did that had holes in his shoes and finally could only paper trade, but maybe he let ms. market trick him at the crucial points - who knows. try it and see how it works for you!

In my experience, you could give most folks tomorrow's WSJ and they'd find a way to lose money with it. Mark

My analysis of the 60' ES chart volume: We had a very nice Bullish spring going into Monday's low. We're chopping around near resistance but my read is that we need a few hours of low volume pullback/chop to gather steam to jump the creek. At least, that would be the lowest risk set up. Mark

"i always say that you could publish trading rules in the newspaper and no one would follow them. the key is consistency and discipline. almost anybody can make up a list of rules that are 80% as good as what we taught our people. what they could not do is give them the confidence to stick to those rules even when things are going bad."

I can see that.

Mark, where do you think the creek is -- 985, 1045, or something else?

970-ish, 980-ish, 988, 1008, 1054 are all resistance levels. I think that the 980-988 area is the primary resistance in play here. 1090+ is the ultimate target for this leg, I think.
