Jim Wyckoff's Top
Market Ideas--Sept. 17, 2010 |
|
Note: I occasionally get questions on the "shelf
life" of my Top Market Ideas reports, or for how long are these trading
ideas still good. My general answer is that these trading ideas have a shelf
life of at least two or three weeks.--Jim December live cattle futures
a buying opportunity on more price strength. December live cattle on
Friday gapped higher on the daily bar chart, hit a fresh contract high and
closed at a bullish weekly high close. Prices also produced a bullish upside
"breakout" from a choppy and sideways trading range on the daily chart. The
bulls have gained solid upside near-term technical momentum recently. A
close above solid technical resistance at Friday's contract high of $102.60
would provide the bulls with more power and would also become a fresh buying
opportunity. The upside price objective would be $106.00, or above. Solid
technical support, for which to place a protective sell stop just below, is
located at $101.00. |

December Euro currency futures a buying opportunity
on more price strength. The December Euro currency futures, traded at
the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, on Friday hit a fresh four-week high as the
bulls have gained fresh upside near-term technical momentum recently. A
close above solid technical resistance at Friday's high of 1.3155 would
provide the bulls with more upside technical power and would also then
become a buying opportunity. The upside objective would be 1.3500, or above.
Solid technical support, for which to place a protective sell stop just
below, is located at 1.2925. |

December E-Mini Dow stock index futures a buying
opportunity on more price strength. The December e-mini Dow stock index
futures on Friday hit a fresh four-week high as the bulls have gained fresh
upside near-term technical momentum recently. Prices are in a three-week-old
uptrend on the daily bar chart. The stock index bulls are very impressively
"climbing a wall of worry" when many thought the stock indexes would sell
off this time of year. Indeed, when too many traders and investors think a
market will trend one way, it usually trends the other. A close above solid
technical resistance at Friday's high of 10,580 would provide the bulls with
better upside near-term technical momentum and would also become a buying
opportunity. The upside price objective would be 11,000, or above. Solid
technical support, for which to place a protective sell stop just below, is
located at 10,400. |
