Where are you, Moo River Fans?

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, every Moo and other visitors.

The Moo River has spoken to me recently as follows:

2019 will be a drastic year, where we will be falling quarter after quarter, with things everywhere get worse and worse, until we hit rock bottom in Q4.

The target for FTSE100 is 5000ish. 

At the moment, we are enjoying this small Christmas rally again, perhaps into January 2019, towards 7500ish target area.

The two interesting instruments to short or long FTSE100 are UK3S to short and UK3L to go long, both decent with plenty of power without the leveraging risks.

It is also possible that cryptocurrencies will take off again in 2019.  Two interesting instruments here without going in the deep end of spreadbetting and CFD's are XBT PROVIDER AB BITCOIN TRACKER ONE (BIT-XBT) and XBT PROVIDER AB BITCOIN TRACKER EUR (BIT-XBTE), both available on HL.

DYor and no investment advice given.

good luck, everyone.


Ps after 2019, we will have three bull years.  so hold your horses if you are a value investor.

My current project: to write three books in the next 10 years

Hiya, all moo river fans,


How's things?


I have had a change of direction in my life.  I am working fulltime, but my main focus is to write three books in the next 10 years.  The following are the titles of the three books:


1. The Darkness of Freedom, a sci-fi book about a world in 2550;


2. Little China Bridge, my take on China;


3. Uncle Wong, on gambling and addictions etc.


If you would like to have a chat with me or find out how I am getting on with my book writing, please come to my new blog: http://drjinsblog.blogspot.co.uk/

07:56am, 16-02-13, some weekly reflections:

"I am speechless. A second week without doing the weekly studies as a mooriverwatcher, the moorivertrader thrived again, now the fun bet series stands at £315 in profit. This seems to demonstrate
that the roles of a mooriverwatcher and a moorivertrader are mutually exclusive, hence one can only choose to be either, not both, it seems. I will keep on building up the profits, when it reaches
£1000 in profit, I will give this duality role another go, just to tempt fate once more, to see whether this duality dilemma is actually valid.

But I have been pondering why this duality dilemma exits. It is a matter of actor(me), action(moorivertrader) and theory of action(mooriverwatcher). Without going into too much details,
the fundamental issue is that action entails trial and error while the theory of action pursues perfection, rationality, logical coherence etc., hence by taking on the duality roles, the actor
is most likely to be squashed between two opposite forces.

Still, had a very bad Tuesday again. Without that one, the profit would have been more than 500 pounds.

All to play for in the coming week, as I expect the meandering process to continue in February, though China comes back to trading after their festival.

Have a nice weekend, folks."

07:45am, 03-02-13, BT could be one of the key drivers in this TMT bull market for 2013:




11:57am, 02-02-13, some weekly reflections:

Not much full mooriver reporting in February, might do one on BT this weekend if I get a chance. Trading in the fun bets series has been improved a bit this week.

Let's have a look at my forecasts and outcomes:

FTSE100: 6420-6270 (actual: 6363-6273, the bottom was pinned perfectly!);

SPX500: 1493-1530 (actual: 1496-1514, pinned the bottom here too);

Euro/dollar: $1.3750-$1.3420 (actual: $1.3711-$1.3414, almost perfect here);

Nymex: $99-$95.60 (actual: $98.24-$95.48, almost there too);

Gold: $1600-$1659 (actual: $1684-$1652, I must give up on gold);

BP: 479-455 pence (actual: 482-462 pence);

Barclays: 310-294 pence (actual: 307-295 pence, almost perfect here).

Overall, perhaps this is one of the best bunches of weekly forecasts that I have ever produced. The power of the mooriverwatch system is for all to see, though
it has been let down so far by moorivertrading system in the current fun bet setup. I am taking a break in February.

Have a good one, folks.

15:20pm, 30-01-13, banked 34 quid, highlighted my fun long 6323, so that is 197 pounds in red from 21 winners and 22 losers out of 43 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.


13:23pm, 30-01-13, M+A on MACD:





10:52am, 30-01-13, looking a bit bearish to me, like a goalpost:



10:37am, 30-01-13, highlighted my fun short 6340.

10:33am, 30-01-13, bailing out at 4 quid loss, so that is 231 pounds in red from 20 winners and 22 losers out of 42 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

09:47am, 30-01-13, seems to be going the right way:



05:43am, 30-01-13, my latest thoughts on ftse:

15:50pm, 29-01-13, highlighted my fun long 6324.

15:45pm, 29-01-13, lost 40 quid, so that is 294 pounds in red from 17 winners and 21 losers out of 38 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

09:20am, 29-01-13, maybe this is a better depiction:



04:52am, 29-01-13, maybe it will go like this:



17:00pm, 28-01-13, highlighted my fun short 6301.

15:58pm, 28-01-13, banked 36 quid, so that is 254 pounds in red from 17 winners and 20 losers out of 37 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

14:42pm, 28-01-13, I fancy January to see a top near 6400ish, but close the month about 100 pointers off the top, leaving room for a bearish February







09:07am, 28-01-13, highlighted my fun  long 6281:




09:04am, 28-01-13, banked 12 quid, so that is 290 pounds in red from 16 winners and 20 losers out of 36 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

07:13am, 28-01-13, highlighted my fun short 6286.

15:34pm, 26-01-13, some weekly reflections:


What a week. All that grinding finally got to me and missed out on the big bull run on Thursday and then got stuck in the contrarian mentality. My biggest critic Johnga (I happen to think Johnga was also John Liquid in his previous form) has got a big point and it is sad that often I can see the market but still can not make money out of it so far! People who later become successful always thank their biggest critic for that extra motivation in
their stage of weakness and development. I must say, having read some of Johnga/John Liquid's messages, I think I can take these criticisms on the chin. John Liquid who only trades spx500 has a trading strategy, whereby he only trades one way in the direction of the trend. That should have been
a good saving point in the past week for many a bear all over the land, as the trend was up and might still be upwards and onwards!

Now let's have a look at my weekly forecasts and outcomes:

FTSE100: 6140-6260 (actual: 6148-6297);

SPX500: 1471-1494 (actual: 1480-1504);

Euro/dollar: $1.3427-$1.3300 (actual: $1.3479-$1.3265);

Nymex: $99-$94.80 (actual: $96.92-$94.96);

Gold: $1700-$1633 (actual: $1696-$1656);

Barclays: 287-310 pence (actual: 294-304 pence);

BP: 467-455 pence (actual: 470-455 pence).

With a batch of weekly studies like that, any other traders would have made tons of money there. There is a problem here, time to take a break in February.

Take care, folks.

08:13am, 23-01-13, highlighted my fun long 6200.

21:28pm, 22-01-13, might go like this:



21:20pm, 22-01-13, banked 44 quid, so that is 143 pounds in red from 13 winners and 14 losers out of 27 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

12:37pm, 22-01-13, it twists and turns and finished a Wave 4 down, now the final Wave 5 up towards 6260ish:




08:04am, 21-01-13, slightly adjusted:


07:10am, 21-01-13, look at the red mooriver, that could be the one to use:



07:04am, 21-01-13, highlighted my fun long 6176.

07:00am, 21-01-13, think this is the dominant mooriver in play:




05:45pm, 21-01-13, lost 62 quid on that fun short, 209 pounds in red from 11 winners and 14 losers out of 25 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

21:27pm, 20-01-13, the triangle on euro/dollar:



10:28am, 20-01-13, a possible roadmap on Lloyds:



07:33am, 20-01-13, some weekly reflections below:

Our moostar Raffles is staying focused on the long side with his massive longs, lol, every time I dithered, he becomes more determined to see out his vision in huge profit, his bank manager
will be smiling again when he finally banks them longs, lol. Well done, buddy, you shine even in this snowy white season.

Let's have a look at my forecasts and outcomes:

FTSE100: 6119-6274 (actual: 6075-6184);
SPX500: 1467-1497 (actual: 1462-1486);
Euro/dollar: $1.3340-$1.3692 (actual: $1.3257-$1.3404);
Nymex: $93.60-$98.20 (actual: $92.96-$96.50);
Gold: $1663-$1590 (actual: $1661-$1697, continue to get it wrong with gold);
Barclays: 295-311 pence (actual: 287-301 pence);
BP: 487-461 pence (actual: 463-455 pence);
Lloyds: 53.5-64.8 pence (actual: 52-55.6 pence).

Saw the bull run and underestimated the jitters a bit and overestimated the exuberance a bit. Shame, no nailed-on forecasts at all.

Have a good Sunday, folks.

12:12pm, 18-01-13, highlighted my fun short 6161.

12:07pm, 18-01-13, banked 96 quid, so that is 147 pounds in red from 11 winners and 13 losers out of 24 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

06:55am, 18-01-13, could do with some sharpening:



17:55pm, 17-01-13, this pitchfork seems to be working out well:



21:26pm, 16-01-13, think this is the mooriver in play:





19:08pm, 15-01-13, highlighted my fun long 6116.

18:58pm, 15-01-13, lost that one, so that is 245 pounds in red from 10 winners and 13 losers out of 23 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

20:08pm, 14-01-13, highlighted my fun long 13380.

07:27am, 13-01-13, an interesting mooriver speculation on Lloyds Banking Group shares, back to 300 pence one day! That will make all taxpayers smile!







17:00pm, 12-01-13, some weekly reflections:


Finally, even our Moostar trader Raffles has found this market a bit of a dither, so he has switched into a much smaller operation for now, which is a good move, imo. Scalping is
becoming very hard, as the daily ranges are kept very tight and trending is not yielding any price movement north yet.

Let's have a look at my forecasts and outcomes:

FTSE100: 6200-6015 (actual: 6132-6050);

SPX500: 1448-1492 (actual: 1451-1476);

Nymex: $93.13-$89.70 (actual: $94.70-$92.44);

Gold: $1656-$1550 (actual: $1679-$1643);

Euro/dollar: $1.3400-$1.3000 (actual: $1.3366-$1.3017);

Barclays: 267-290 pence (actual: 281-302 pence);

BP: 440-465 pence (actual: 446-467 pence).

Well, at least nailed the euro/dollar forecast.

Have a nice weekend, folks.

10:27am, 12-01-13, all Llodys investors will be laughing all the way to their Bank!



07:32am, 11-01-13, a very patient market with lots of jittery traders:



19:46pm, 10-01-13, highlighted my fun long 6113.

19:40pm, 10-01-13, chopped for 14 quid, so that is  88 pounds in red from 10 winners and 10 losers out of 20 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

16:33pm, 10-01-13, highlighted my fun short 6102.

16:15pm, 10-01-13, banked 30 quid, hugely disappointing, so that is 74 pounds in red from 10 winners and 9 losers out of 19 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

10:18am, 10-01-13, Lloyds could be the shining star or Black Hose for 2013:



07:53am, 10-01-13, bulls need to defend pivot:



06:20am, 10-01-13, crossing on ftse:end of meandering, now crossing, so no more scalps on shorts until it hits the upperbank near 6250ish‏:








08:04am, 09-01-13, highlighted my fun long 6076.

08:01, 09-01-13, chopped for a twenty, so that is 104 pounds in red from 9 winners and 9 losers out of 18 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

15:47pm, 08-01-13, switched out of the long into the short at a cost of 32 quid and hightlighted my fun short 6064, so that is 84 pounds in red from 9 winners and 8 losers out of 17 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

11:50am, 08-01-13, highlighted my fun long 6084.

11:45am, 08-01-13, lost 42 quid, so that is 52 pounds in red from 9 winners and 7 losers out of 16 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

08:19am, 08-01-13, highlighted my fun short 6060.

20:10pm, 07-01-13, nicked 6 quid, so that is 10 pounds in red from 9 winners and 6 losers out of 15 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

11:25am, 07-01-13, here is my current bearish count on ftse:



10:45am, 07-01-13, highlighted my fun short 6075.

10:23am, 07-01-13, chopped the ftse long for a tenner, so that is 44 pounds in red from 7 winners and 6 losers out of 13 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

10:14am, 07-01-13, euro found support near $1.3000 big round number.








09:07am, 07-01-13, further adjustment to the ftse daily range:



09:04am, 07-01-13, highlighted my fun long 6072.

09:02am, 07-01-13, banked 46 quid, so that is 34 pounds in red from 7 winners and 5 losers out of 12 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.


08:26am, 07-01-13, goes the right way:



07:25am, 07-01-13, daily range on ftse adjusted a bit:



19:16pm, 06-01-13, the weekend is over.  FTSE100 might go like this over the coming week:







22:20pm, 05-01-13, all seven reports done, some weekly reflections below:

Had a good start in the new series of fun bets, then wavered again. The old habits die hard. I think basically in 2012 I lost the trader's guts due to the intense love affair with the
markets, gripped by a variety of fear. It is only a game of greed and fear and fear breeds more fear. One has to be brave and determined to be a winner in this game.

Let's have a look at the two forecasts I provided last weekend and the actual outcomes:

FTSE100: 5875-6130 (actual: 5869-6106);

SPX500: 1409-1257 (actual: 1390-1468).

Well, I was caught in two minds and hence produced two divergent forecasts with the bullish count hitting the nail on the head.

That is the problem with me, really, though there is very little doubt that I CAN see the future, for better or for worse!

Have a nice weekend, folks.

20:12pm, 04-01-13, highlighted my fun short 6097.

20:10pm, 04-01-13, lost that spx short, so that is 80 pounds in red from 6 winners and 5 losers out of 11 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

06:20am, 04-01-13, bulls continue to defend defend 6000-6020 zone, a grinding bull market:



20:57pm, 03-01-13, highlighted my fun short 1456.

20:54pm, 03-01-13, chopped for 32 quid, so that is 20 pounds in profit from 6 winners and 4 losers out of 10 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

18:38pm, 03-01-13, highlighted my fun long 6054 on GS.



17:39pm, 03-01-13, chopped for 30 quid, so that is 52 pounds in profit from 6 winners and 3 loser out of 9 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

16:07pm, 03-01-13, ftse: possible head and shoulder pattern:

12:50pm, 03-01-13, nicked a tenner, so that is 115 pounds in profit from 5 winners and 1 loser out of 6 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

12:25pm, 03-01-13, bulls have survived the final jitter:





10:58am, 03-01-13, ftse100: while price is being held firm, the rising angle has reduced and we are meandering between the blue fanlines for these two days.
next week should see the bulls resume its trendy run north with more vigor.


 







































































































































































































































































































































































































 



 
09:50am, 03-01-13, ftse double bottomed?



09:43am, 03-01-13, on ftse 100: the downside is limited, might have finished, but the upside is rather uncertain, either 6110 or 6140ish max today‏:

15:10pm, 02-01-13, bulls are rampant today, however, it might go like this:



10:37am, 02-01-13, might go like this though bulls are rampant:





10:25am, 02-01-13, highlighted my fun short 6005.

10:22am, 02-01-13, banked 44 quid, so that is 52 pounds in profit from 2 winners out of 2 selections in the 17the Series of fun bets.

07:33am, 02-01-13, highlighted my fun short 5984.

04:33, 02-01-13, maybe no more bears for now.

20:03pm, 01-01-13, still think this is a bear market:




14:02pm, 01-01-13, Happy New Year to all mooriver fans all over the world.  I wish you all a heathy, happy and prosperous 2013.  My New Year's resolution is to stick to being a chart trader and trade what I see and will kick off the new 17th series of fun bets in the new year, this time, purely based on chart trading.  Let's see how it goes.
