        Could be the last push before the big dip. Pension funds, gov buying bonds etc... doing their part.
        Smart money being rescued by people's pension and taxpayer money to be able to get out scar less.

        Bulls make money, bears make money, pigs get slaughtered.
        Some things never change.

          3-day death cross on the Dow Jones grows ever nearer to making history. It is not an exact science for sure however between 30 & 60-days this index is going to collapse hard.

              You're correct, it's not an exact science. Lots of money to not be made by just looking at graphs

              There have been many times when a death cross appeared, such as in the summer of 2016, when it proved to be a false indicator. Those who got out of stocks during the summer of 2016 missed the sizable stock market gains that followed throughout 2017. The 2016 death star example was in fact occurring during a technical correction of around 10%, which is oftentimes seen as a buy opportunity known as buying on the dip.

                You can't do that Sir, but some accredited people behind well established organisations are probably doing exactly the same thing with your pension based on even more sketchier advice.

                Where is that news about scrapping BOE inflation targets?

                  What's a 3-day death cross?

                  Usually it refers to a crossover of the 50 and 200 day moving averages.

                  Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.

                      50 & 200 day moving average is for retail players.

                      150 & 600 day moving averages is the smart money. The stock markets move really slow, as such, significant trend changes are identifiable on larger scales. Sounds obvious.. but just look at this thread and you'll see folks posting every other day swing price changes. The majority of folks are focused on the smaller time scale for a number of reasons I'll not go into here.

                      The 3-day cross is defined as the 150 & 600-day moving averages on a 1-day chart. Or 50 & 200 on a 3-day chart.

                      Here is the July 2008 death cross. A 50% fall, followed by a V shaped recovery.







                      Here is the dot.com 3-day death cross followed by a 30% move to the downside. Notice now there was a fake out rally to the upside at first? That's dumb retail money, often known as a suckers rally, which I believe we're now seeing.






                      Here's a fake out 3-day death cross in 88.







                      December of 81







                      Bottom line, don't ignore 3-day death crosses when they occur, especially if you believe the market is overbought.
