There is nothing caustic, I have the utmost respect for Chartist and his TA... it is for this reason I made that comment. Speaking of TA Chartist I have a question. Have a look at netcare, it broke above resistance made news high and is now pulling back do we look for a bounce off the last high at R14 or do you wait for a bounce off the long term support. your comment ( however caustic ) will be well recieved.

I would buy it on a pullback but I would wait for the trend resumption to be confirmed - we could see further downside - momentum is deckining and just hovering around the midpoint - we are nowhere near oversold so just wait till everything turns upward again. 1400 seems to have some support...

I agree I dont want to buy... But for future.. as a TA rule, would you look for a bounce off the horizontal support or the slopping trend line as a rule. I use netcare as an example as it has such stable trend lines.

today will be the 4th green day in a row. Could be a tough week for the bears if we go for another record.
