Alcatel, c'est reparti.

Un graphe en quotidien pour la tendance suivi d'un graphe en 60 mn pour le timing.

Si retracement belle opportunité à saisir.

A voir absolument le site de David VOMUND :

Un lien intéressant publié sur le site traders.com en  2004 (Technical Analysis of STOCKS & COMMODITIES)

sutout pour ceux qui n'ont pas lu le livre .

Mon approche est fortement inspirée de son livre et des publications sur son site que je vous conseille de lire avec attention.

J'ai intégré des ETF bear comme lui afin d'être positif dans les phases de marché baissier.

J'ai testé plusieurs approches afin de ne pas avoir les mauvaises années des scores négatifs, ce qui me permet d'être plus serein dans ce type de trading. 

Il faut tout de même bien comprendre ce que l'on fait et être conscient que l'on peut être négatif pendant plusieurs mois avant d'accrocher le trade gagnant qui va faire la performance de l'année. C'est le principe du trading long terme mis à la sauce ETF et qui s'avère très efficace, à condition de savoir maitriser ses émotions, avoir de la patience et savoir suivre son système à la lettre sans entorse aux rêgles.

Croyez moi pas si facile que celà !

Ces dernières approches cf son dernier livre, à méditer ....

PAUL KANGAS: My guest "Market Monitor" this week is Stan Weinstein, editor and publisher of "Global Trend Alert," a financial advisory service for institutional investors. And Stan welcome back to NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT.

STAN WEINSTEIN, EDITOR & PUBLISHER, "GLOBAL TREND ALERT": Always my pleasure to be back, Paul.

KANGAS: When you were last with us in September of 2007, too long ago, the Dow was at 13, 400. You said the bull market was no longer healthy and warned if it broke below 12,800 on the Dow, bear would emerge and that was a great call. Congratulations.

WEINSTEIN: Thank you very much.

KANGAS: Now the question is: can you tell us if the market is in the bottoming process and ready for buying?

WEINSTEIN: Process is the right word. It takes time. So I think the process has started, but long-term, we're still bearish. I don't think that the bear has breathed its last. Short-term is a different thing. Short-term I think you may have hit a low this past Thursday and I'll give you two numbers to watch, but this is trading. If the Dow can close above 9800, I think for the first time in a heck of a long time, we'll get a good short- term rally. If it doesn't happen, conversely instead you close around 7800, another down leg.

KANGAS: What moving average is the most important one to follow under these conditions?

WEINSTEIN: There are two that I especially focus on. For long-term investing, I think the 200-day moving average is key. But for trading, I think the 50-day moving average is important. So I wouldn't use one. I'd combine the two together.

KANGAS: What stock groups do you think will lead the market higher when that time comes?

WEINSTEIN: We should only get there. I think that two groups - they're not bullish yet, but two groups which I think have seen their bear market lows, irrespective if the Dow goes there, are the airlines and the banks which you know I was bearish on before. Some select regional banks and some airlines and some select healthcare stocks look like they're starting to base, but they're not yet officially bullish. They're basing.

KANGAS: Back in September of last year, you didn't like the retailers, either and look what's happened then. There must be a time to buy.

WEINSTEIN: Well again, very, very split groups. Some retailers selectively are bullish, but there's a lot of retailers - when the charts are doing their thing, you've got to look chart by chart.

KANGAS: What else would you stay away from in the way of stock groups?

WEINSTEIN: There is no longer such a matter of groups because the groups (INAUDIBLE) like the oils, the fertilizers, they've destroyed them. But there are a lot of individual stocks that aren't too late to sell and here's where the charts do their think. If you have a stock that's close to its 200-day moving average starting to break down, I think that's still saleable, but (INAUDIBLE).

KANGAS: As you know, the G-20 leaders are meeting in Washington this weekend. What would you like to come out of that summit on the financial crisis?

WEINSTEIN: First of all, I'm a cynic, so I don't expect too much. But secondly, I'm a technician so I care less about what they say and it's how the market reacts to the news more than the news itself that will impress me.

KANGAS: Are there any foreign markets you do like?

WEINSTEIN: This is what's really scary. There are no foreign markets -- I go through all the charts that are bullish and they (INAUDIBLE) . We're in a worldwide bear market and those are the most dangerous, reminds me very much of what we went through in 1973 and '74, which was a devastating bear market.

KANGAS: What about gold and gold stocks?

WEINSTEIN: Both of them have been bullish. But the gold stocks topped out last March. Gold bullion topped out this past July and turned bearish in August. There is really not a lot of places to hide. They're both in bear markets now, too.

KANGAS: Can you hide in bonds?

WEINSTEIN: Bonds are at least neutral which I think will win here and neutral, just stick with high-quality government bonds and I say, short- term maturities, five years or less.

KANGAS: Very interesting. Stan, we have about 30 seconds left. Any final thoughts for our viewers?

WEINSTEIN: I would say that they should learn from this terrible bear market that we're going through, that a simple buy and hold strategy is very dangerous to your investing health. I think you've got to keep looking at charts and when they turn negative, you can't fall in love with the stock. There is a time to buy and a time to sell. If they say sell, you got to sell.

KANGAS: So it is good for the brokers, too?

WEINSTEIN: And it's good for you, too.

KANGAS: Very good. Stan, it is great to see you and get your insight. Thanks very much.

WEINSTEIN: It's always my pleasure, also, Paul.
