Stock Reversal Setups Closing Basis. Stocks that are setting up on a closing basis as potential long or short reversal pattern candidates. Candidates listed may have triggered on a closing basis, or close to triggering ( my general rule is to list the pattern setup if it is within +/-.15 of trigger price). Patterns include basing patterns (Slim Jims, 1,2,3s, Double bottoms) consolidations, and triangle reversals. Background technical supports in the form of Fibonacci levels, EMAs (DEMA=daily ema), RS, and former price action are used in the decision making process.

What I Saw Today: Lack Of 'Confidence' Weighs On Investors
Tuesday July 29, 5:25 pm ET
By Chris Tyler


With Monday's trade being a low volatility 'test', it was nice to see things back to normal on Tuesday. Unfortunately, with consumers apparently 'just browsing' these days, the ol' market trading tree had a small piece removed from it. This action has the ETFs down between .45% and .75%, as it fell further into the established range. Volume was on par with yesterday's below average figures, and market breadth was even less decisive as the combined ratio of the 'two floors' was less than 1.5:1. Hmmm, I don't know if I should 'YAHOO', or just give out a big ol' 'yawn.'
The daily consolidation patterns had another day of indecision within the established ranges. Fortunately for daytraders, with 'the number' out this morning, we were blessed with some excellent intraday reversal opportunities. Don't thank whoever it was on the Street that came out with the Saddam rumor. That's what gave the talking heads everywhere 'a reason' for the intraday reversal which stopped the early bleeding. Instead, thank yourself for being prepared to daytrade the patterns with discipline and consistency.

Everyone else seems to need a reason after the fact. 'Why did we rally today?'...who cares, seriously. To succeed as a daytrader, we have to be ready before the media gets 'their reason.' The way we do this each and every day is by staying prepared to trade the high probability setups out of our High and Low RS lists...bottom line, and that my friend is what adds to our other bottom line, end of story.
