Another Failed Breakout

Posted by Kris Pivo on Saturday, March 26, 2011,
Finally we see increased volatility with Cable breaking-out to the upside, touching M4 resistance level and rolling over all the way to S1 support level. We are pleased that we capitalised on all major directional moves (up and down).

On the attached chart one can clearly see that we had three trades: (1) we took small profit when the market reached R1; (2) larger profit when the market retraced to PP; and (3) tiny profit when the market came down to S1 level.

Also, it is interesting to note...

Last week we finally got the Cup & Handle breakout (on daily timeframe), but it faded away on Thursday and Friday.  Lets see if the Cable gains momentun next week or rolls-over.
