LG

I am very new at all of this and have learned more from you and Augie than all combined. Thank you! I love charts and can see what you believe is going on but I must ask a question. A Point and Figure chart on,say, the $NYA shows a triple top breakout. If you have the time, would you please give me you ideas on this chart.

Thank you

LG, thxs for your charts. i forgot about that gap from the recent low. yesterday i noticed that the compx and the ndx
appear to have channels developing while the dow and snp appear
to have more troublesome wedge patterns. i previously felt
comfortable trading the compx and qqq as a channel, but i wonder what your thoughts are on that nagging gap. zeev's target numbers also play along with the channel theory. traditionally, once a longer down trend is broken
(i am speaking of the one from May),to maintain the breakout
it must stay above the trendline. in the case of the compx,
even if the channel bottom is broken there is some small room
down before reaching the trend line. the past few weeks i was
under the impression that the dow and snp were stronger than the compx but at present the compx channel looks better than
the dow wedge. we should know on monday if those wedges will hold, but even if they do, we need further breakouts. thxs
again.

LG, I'm waving that flag right now on the COMP. The lower boundry interesects some interesting support at 1306 or so. The upper boundry also is headed into some heavy resistance. I think you've got to respect the flag first and the fib's 2nd in this instance. The flag is just too far along to be ignored.

Looking at the calendar, we just got done with options expiration, and we've got window dressing around the corner.

I could see us dropping early this week and turning up at the lower boundry of the flag and challenging the upper boundry at 1400 near the end of the month.

After that, I believe the flag breaks, and we drop to 1000 COMP and the low 700's on the SPX>

BTW, if anyone wants to see where Zeev gets his rally to 1500, all you have to do is look at the monthly COMP chart. That's the level where the falling resistance line off the 2000 highs run. That line has reigned in every rally except one.

That line will be near 1450 in September, so if we are held up at just above 1400 COMP in the end of August, don't expect us to go much higher in September.

BTW, the NDX chart may actually be the better gauge here, using the falling resistance line off the 2000 high through the Dec. high results in a maximum top around 1060 NDX in August and 1020 or so in September, I believe.

LG, you have a bullish bias, but I can't believe it can be very bullish with the chart formations, bear flags, and heavy overhead resistance that has not been taken out in 2-years.

LG,

Thanks for all your contibution here. i particluarly like your charts and their explanations.

Referring to the charts in the message I am responding to here. Has the Naz broken out of the channel shown on your charts, and if so how significant is such a breach.

What level of breakout would make you believe that your expected break (down) was no longer going to happen.

Thanks a lot


Kevin
