DJIA Line Chart Half Diamond To Full Gem



The orange half diamond formation mentioned in the 6 June 2010 posting has been transformed into a sparkling gem . A breakout upwards will confirm a reversal diamond pattern. The upthrust will challenge the formidable moving average ribbon bands and will probably be halted by the red trendline.

Conversely, a breakdown below the orange diamomd support confirms a continuation pattern and will probably result in more downward declines. A drop below the blue trendline will test the lavender and the green horizontal support levels.

Genting Approaches Double Bottom Measured Move Target Projection


After clearing above 1.07, the light blue immediate resistance is the next band to overcome. This band marks the projected target for the double bottom breakout confirmation based on the difference between the pink support and the 97.5 milestone. A strong breakout above the immediate resistance band will probably test the green resistance zone followed by the orange resistance region.

Take note that any pullback from the red upper channel dual resistance lines will retest the lavender immediate support area. Further weakness may find support at $1 .

DJIA Range Bound Between 200 MA and Diamond Support



As expected DJIA is trapped between the red support of the potential diamond pattern and the dual resistances of both the 200EMA and 200SMA. A strong upthrust above these 200 moving averages will most probably be halted by the green resistance of the potential diamond formation.

The red support will probably be tested again if more shocking news are released. The diamond will be negated if there is no clear breakout by the time the index reaches the apex which is tentatively around mid Oct 2010.

Healthway Doji Pondering Entry Into Bear Zone



Doji contemplates invasion of bear territories. Blue bear standing guard at the bold blue immediate resistance border. A bull raid above this boundary will meet strong bear defences at the red upper channel dual resistance lines.

Immediate support is 17.5 to 17 followed by 16 to 15.5 support zone. Next bull support is the 14 support line. Strong bull support is at the red lower channel dual support lines.

China XLX Testing Downtrend Resistance Slope



4th attempt at breaking upwards from the bold red dashed downtrend resistance slope in progress. The red down arrows indicates previous failed breakout attempts. A successful breakout must clear the mmediate light blue resistance band and will probably meet the following resistances

1. Bold green dual downtrend slope

2. Ichimuko Kumo Cloud

3. Orange resistance zone

Immediate support is the lower blue channel support followed by the pink support belt. A breakdown below 47.5 will probably retest the green support area. Support failure here will resume drop along the lower red channel support.

DJIA Line Chart Diamonds and Half Diamond



The simple line chart is treated as the poor cousin of the more exotic candlesticks charts and is often overlooked. In character, in manner, in style, in all things, the supreme excellence is simplicity. Using the simple line chart the green and red diamonds can be seen clearly. The orange half diamond is also known by many names such as

1. Reverse Symmetrical Triangle

2. Megaphone

3. Broadening Pattern

Depending on how the market moves next week this orange half diamond may developed into a full diamond if high volatility swings become compressed.

Take note that a head and shoulders pattern with a red diamond top head was confirmed when the red bold trendline which is also the neckline support broke down on 20 May 2010. This coming week will be critical because support failure of the bold blue trendline will probably result in a fall towards the green horizontal support which is also near the measured move projection of the head and shoulders formation.

A technical rebound is expected for the orange half diamond but it will probably be halted at the light blue horizontal resistance line. Until a powerful breakout emerges from this orange half diamond pattern more range trading between the light blue and pink horizontal lines will be the norm.
