Bear Flag - ABX and Inverse H&S - V

ABX fooled me on the capitulation volume spike as price moved into the 50% fib. ext. of the PDH to ORL. Eventually, I found a spot to get back in for the rest of the ride.

Watch gold tomorrow for a snap back rally.

V- Inverse H&S - normally a measured move on a chart pattern is 100%, but I had a feeling that V would go to $57, so I locked some in and kept my fingers crossed.

Jamie,

Would you consider NEM an "h" pattern today? I couldn't remember what you said one looked like or the target.

I tried to search for "h" on your site and it gave me results for every post that had the letter h in it. Not what I was looking for, haha!

Thanks,
Tyler

Tyler,

Yeah, I see a nice h on 5 min.

My lower side panel section called Labels has two references to h-pattern.

Jamie,
Love reading your blog! your trades always look so clean and simple.
wondering what kind of risk management you use...% of equity per trade, risk/reward ratio, how you position stops...thanks for sharing!

Thanks Shawn,

I use risk/reward ratio. My stops are usually previous bar high/low except NRIB, I use the outside bar as my stop. The red line segments on the ABX trade represent my stops.

Hey Jamie,

Great call last night on the "coiling in gold". ABX, GG, NEM all had nice short setups this morning. Although not as weak as ABX and GG, I liked that the 4th 10min bar in NEM spanned the retracement zone (38-62%) for Fibs over the OR. That bar was also a red hanging man. What a nice setup to have a hanging man exactly spanning the RZ!

Thanks Jim,

Yeah, good eye on the NEM hanging man in the RZ. I was focused on ABX because of the NRB inside the lower shadow of the previous day's stick on the daily.
