Sensex Technical Analysis - Jan 5th






The Sensex is showing some good signs or considering the street sentiment a sign of hope.

There are few things that give hope, here are they:

1. The capitulation seems to have been completed at around 7900. The latest moves are likely to be more rangebound and the low is perhaps completed.

2. Though not a big fan of elliot in trying to look ahead, the five wave pattern (probably C or E) has been completed at lows of 8300. This would imply a good levels going ahead

3. Perhaps the most bullish sign right now is the appreance of rounding bottom like pattern. I am circumspect of this truning out to be a true rounding bottom i.e. I do not expect the thrust to be similar to the actual rounding bottoms. The pattern is violated because of a gap and thrust, which in my interpretation violates the rounding bottom in short term charts. The upper break in these cases do not yeild the same amount of returns otherwise an unviolated pattern would yeild.

4. It is porbable the seeds for a big rally are being sowed and are at its earliest stages

The pitfalls of these assumptions are the half made triangle that is still in development. The retracement of 61% is ideal in case of contracting triangle. The triangle is more likely than a rounding bottom. The significance of rounding bottom is just this - the accumulation has started to happen. This is significant. Make sure you watch the reaction to the break of stop loss of this bottom. If the reaction is very sharp, they we are probably going break below the triangle levels and turn it into more an expanding bias.

Happy Trading.

Cognitive rules of business presentations

In his recent book, Clear and to the Point, Kosslyn explained that the four rules of PowerPoint are: The Goldilocks Rule, The Rudolph Rule, The Rule of Four, and the Birds of a Feather Rule. Here's how they work. The Goldilocks Rule refers to presenting the "just right" amount of data. Never include more information than your audience needs in a visual image. As an example, Kosslyn showed two graphs of real estate prices over time. One included ten different numbers, one for each year. The other included two numbers: a peak price, and the current price. For the purposes of a presentation about today's prices relative to peak price, those numbers were the only ones necessary. The Rudolph Rule refers to simple ways you can make information stand out and guide your audience to important details -- the way Rudolph the reindeer's red nose stood out from the other reindeers' and led them. If you're presenting a piece of relevant data in a list, why not mak...

Value of dollar - Part 1

A Simple Perspective Will Do The date is 2000-05-28. Don't you get tired of all the bad news bears reminding you of all these instabilities, excesses, and 'potential' tensions in the global economy? After all, hasn't it always been like that? Yes it has, but not in money it hasn't. Increasingly, investors find it harder to know where to put their savings. What about Government Bonds? Wrong. Their recent record of capital losses have wiped out your guaranteed yields, probably because the stock market keeps crowding them out, and this even in a strong dollar and low inflation environment. Furthermore, there is no reliable liquidity and potentially poor quality debt in the corporate sector. Foreign assets? Wrong. Most of the world's economies are riskier, have been under performing, and also, there is this thing called currency risk. Like how is the average person gonna cope with currency...

Depreciation of British Pound 1900-2000

When the Bank of England was formed the powers to create money was finally transferred to private hands. The creation of Fed in US, was just a part of this cycle. Though it is a common knowledge US Dollar has depreciated nearly 100% since the creation of Federal Reserve, the same is the case of all the currencies across the globe. For example, below is the UK Parliament data that highlights the depreciating value of Pound.
