We are looking at the JPN225 today, but it’s more from an educational standpoint around a continuation pattern that uses the moving averages to help qualify the setup. This setup comes from a system called the Floor Trader Method. Yes, I know floor traders most likely didn’t use moving averages. But if you read it, you will see it mainly focuses on price position and retracement shape. The moving averages are there to assist in seeing the trend and qualify.

Today’s focus: JPN225

Pattern – Continuation Support – 35,860, 35,500 Resistance – 36,215, 36,718

We have run over some aspects of the method and how it can be seen in today’s price setup. We have also run over targets and stop points with both a higher perspective and a lower failed perspective.

It will be interesting to see if the JPN225 can retest its previous resistance and highs and set up a new fast trend.

Good trading.
