NIKKEI explores previous range lows, likely fills in range.The drop in the Nikkei into the previous range ended with a test and bounce of the previous monthly range's low. Now that price is declining, we should see a full price exploration of the previous range on the way down.

$NIKKEI Futures Beautiful chart$NK_F looks absolutely beautiful on the hourly chart. I believe that it will inverse head and shoulders directly up into its top downtrend line which also happens to intersect with its FIB 61.8% level.

Life is great againJust had coffee with a trading friend for 2 hours and he was swearing and complaining to me how much he had lost in the stock market! More than 5 figures and worst of all, he kept this from his spouse. He continued to rant on and on about how the market is spooked, manipulative and blamed it on the Central Government for doing too little too late.
Could he be right ? I don't know. I had my fair share of seeing red in my own portfolio and several positions been stopped out as well.
I could not find a better phrase nor word to say what needs to be done now. Then I came across this article here.
It hit on me that a professional jockey could still put on a smile despite not winning for 137 times !That is really admirable in terms of his "never-give-up" attitude.
I am not saying the market will turn around this week if you choose to stay on. Nobody can tell you for sure just like how this stock market plunge took many by surprise. It is like a domino effect, first the Coronavirus dampening the mood of stock market, then the oil play between the OPEC members dragging down the futures and then the stocks as well. Nothing is spared with the exception of safe haven like gold, yen and the VIX.
I have previously mentioned that one must not treat trading as everything in life but just a compartment of his life. There must exist space and time for family, friends, hobbies, social life, etc. Striking a balance is KEY as this is the time where you seek solace in this areas to let out your stress in a healthy manner. What goes down must comes up and vice versa.
To miss the game of it coming up and you not participating in it would be such a shame because you call it quits. Not for another 137 times, now that is professional !! Have the right mindset an you will be able to survive any disasters!
Take care ,everyone !

Elliott Wave View: Nikkei (NKD_F) Reaching Support AreaShort term Elliott wave view in Nikkei (NKD_F) suggests the Index is doing a larger degree pullback to correct the cycle up from August 26, 2019 low in wave IV, which is unfolding as a flat. Wave ((A)) of IV ended at 22630 low and wave ((B)) ended at 24030 high. From there, it has extended lower in wave ((C)), which is unfolding as a 5 waves impulse Elliott Wave structure. Down from wave ((B)) high, wave (1) ended at 23090 low. The bounce in wave (2) ended at 23803 high.
After that, the index extended lower in wave (3) which subdivides in lesser degree 5 waves. Wave 1 of (3) ended at 23415 low and wave 2 ended at 23635 high. The index continued lower in wave 3, which ended at 22165 low. Then, the bounce in wave 4 ended at 22365 high. The push lower in wave 5 of (3) ended at 22075 low. From there, the index then bounced in wave (4), which ended at 22735 high. Near term, the index has reached the 100% extension area from December 17, 2019 high between 21483-22489. However, expect another leg lower before the cycle from December 17 high ends in wave IV as long as 23803 pivot stays intact. Afterwards, the index should see a larger 3 waves bounce at least from the blue box area.
