The major stock market indexes attempted to breakout to new highs again this week, but failed, and turned down to end the week near their lows. In contrast US treasuries made a Stage 2 continuation breakout to new highs, as did Gold on some reasonable volume, and the Gold miners. So I took a position in Gold in my pension account.

This week saw a number of major stock market indexes attempt to breakout to new highs. However, only the Nasdaq indexes managed to breakout and hold to the end of the week.

Use the Key Market Breadth Indicators to time the market

I've been keeping a written trading journal in the forum since 2013, where I've documented all of my trades, warts and all. Which has helped me to learn from my mistakes, and has forced me to stick to my trading rules and avoid making impulsive trades that don't meet my risk requirements.
