No trades here, just chatting. Here is an example of a stock whose price dropped after a Gold Cross. The second Gold Cross on these charts could have worked well, however.
Back to the drawing board.
All to the best to you real traders.

One more time, please. The conclusions I came to are based on only a few charts. I looked through a file of past charts with Gold Crosses, and found that the situation is more complex that I thought. No surprise. Sometimes price makes a Gold Cross, than heads down. I will try to come up with a better discussion of the setup. More later.

Oops again. Paper trading. I did not have any options on ZYNE, just some stock. I do have some call options on GIS in my paper trading account.
My apologies again

Oops. Zyne was more like a 40 percent rise.
My apologies.

Just looking at my daily paper trading results. Two of my active winning long term option trades, GIS and ZYNE, have similar five features: 1.) A top, 2.) A Bottom, 3.) A Gold Cross, 4.) A fibo retrace to a significant fibo, such as 0.886 or 0.618, and 5.) a subsequent fibo retrace to the 0.300 - 0.382 area with STO OS, followed by a roughly 10% gain.

The 50 and 200 mas on my charts are simple moving averages.

Nice Chart Rat, how do you use CCI and why did you apply the blue box to your 120 CCI.
