Another three digit gain for DJ again. Positive opening of Nikkei , SIMSCI as well as Hang Seng is just expected. In the first hour of trading, SIMSCI, in fact, drifting down from open price. With both Nikkei and Hang Seng stays more than +300 points gain, I am looking for opportunity to establish Long position in the weakness of SIMSCI movement.

Swing Trade for 16-June-2006: No candidate
Given yesterday’s positive closing of STI and recent rally of U.S indices, I did a scan on my stock list for potential swing trade candidate. Few china counters appeared in rally with volume scan. However, none of them passed the directional and trend test for the time being and most of them are actually trading below 150 and 200 day moving average.
I would prefer to stay away from stocks market today and wait for more confirmations about this rally (or maybe , just a relief rally).
RE:SIMSCI 15-June-2006: No trade

What a disappointing day. In fact , it was a ‘do-nothing’ day for me. SIMSCI futures was choppy and weak, even though Nikkie Futures were strong. No trade was made. I might be missing an entry at 275.4 around 415pm. I gave up the opportunity as I do not like the way market moved. The potential reward was not attractive enough for me to take risk.
No trade.
RE:SIMSCI 15-June-2006: Potential Long: Twisted, Potential Short
[11:29am]Here we go. I am twisting my mind again. Nikkei reopen and failed to push up further. SIMSCI has formed a base line at 274.7 and making lower highs. It is rather weak. Now, I am watching for short position closely.
It might end up with a choppy day instead.
Update [12:37pm]
Nikkei 12 min morning

I did not initiate a Short position in SIMSCI before lunch break. Nikkei Futures does not give me the confidence to go short. In 9-min a positive divergence of RSI is observed and in 12-min, it starts to ticking up. Volume is drying. I might be wrong and again, missing profitable trade, however, the risk of being stop by SIMSCI gap up in the afternoon is too high for me to take.
So far, SIMSCI intraday movement has been choppy. Though a descending triangle is formed, sentiment support is not strong enough. No position is established.

SIMSCI 15-June-2006: Potential Long
I am looking at Long position of SIMSCI this morning. However, it seems to be rather weak after morning gain. My buy order is still in the queue. Nikkei is closed for first session. I am watching for second session of Nikkei to confirm intraday sentiment.
Bottom line, current intraday chart formation does not suggest me to go for short.
SIMSCI 15-June-2006: Positive open
So we have Dow ended with triple-digit gain and Nasdaq snapped losing streak last nite. Nikkei futures opened and trading around +300 points gain. SIMSCI opened with +3 point. It is a positive morning. It is still too early to decide trading direction now. I am watching the market closely now.
