Bailout Signed; Market Falls; Fiddlesticks and CandlesticksNot even $700 Billion could kickstart the market. Whatever will it take to get the stock market moving again? Candlesticks as Weapons of DefenseCandlestick patterns often throw off clues which enable an alert investor to take remedial action in time to protect the value of his portfolio. How to Survive and Win in This Bear Market: Follow the Candlestick PatternsIn this difficult investing environment, the intelligent investor should take a pro-active stance in managing his portfolio. He or she should learn the basic Candlestick patterns, and should have established a defensive posture through the use of inverse funds. No Gold, No Market, No CandlesticksThe ownership of Gold in the hands of the public is an inconvenient truth for Government. It is an embarrassment, a measuring-stick of the capability of Congress ad of the Executive branch to manage the affairs of the country. Gold will soon be confiscated and removed from open trading in the market, just as it happened immediately after Franklin Roosevelt was sworn into office about 75 years ago. Candlesticks Fool Gold Bulls AgainThe Candlestick pattern left behind by Gold on Thursday, September 18 could have fooled investors into believing that a trip back toward $2,000 Gold was in the making. The Candle patterns told a different story: that, rather than advancing further, prices would likely fall the next day, which they did. Candlesticks Predicted $85 Crude Oil: It's Coming TrueIt wasn't all that long ago when the brightest minds and loudest voices on Wall Street were insistent that Crude Oil prices must rise to the $180-200 level. Candlestick technical analysis told us that such was not to be, regardless of the noise of the herd. Now Crude is below $100 per barrel, and $85 is in sight. Head and Shoulders Pattern Plus Candlesticks Equals Stock Market DeclineA Head and Shoulders Top pattern has formed in the Dow Industrials. This pattern has bearish implications. In combination with the bearish Japanese Candlestick patterns which are also in evidence, we can contemplate the degree of probability that prices in the Dow Industrials Index will decline. Candlesticks Belt Hold Pattern Predicts Stock Market DeclineClassic Candlestick patterns are often reliable indicators of the next direction in Index prices. We now have before us the classic Belt Hold pattern, which predicts that prices will decline. Candlesticks Throw Light on the Fannie Mae ReboundPrices in the Dow Industrials and in other major Indexes rose sharply following the news that the Federal government would take over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. However, Japanese Candlestick analysis and other technical analysis revealed that the rise was only a flash in the pan, and would soon dissipate. That is precisely what happened. Candlesticks Push Wheat Profits to Front Row CenterSome traders went Long when Wheat prices gapped up at the end of a long rise. However, those who had the benefit of knowing Japanese Candlestick technical analysis knew that the appearance of the "Shooting Star" pattern was bearish. It was they who profited from the ensuing decline in prices, while the Longs suffered calamity to the wallet and wondered, in dismay, how this could happen.
