LUCK GF, pure and simple :O) Trust me I am no chartist, to lazy to learn Fibonaci (thought it was Italian for lying) or pitchforks and all the rest of the gobldy gook. Maybe I should. I just try and keep it simple, stick to a few stocks that I have traded in the past.
You gave me the tools a few years ago, if you remember. They are all on the your Chart Thread, the indicators I use are no different to the ones you use. Volume, RSI, MACD, Slow Stoch (I haven't got a clue what Slow Stoch means, but if it's pointing up like the rest of them, it does for me :O)
25, 50, 200 day moving averages and lastly SAR cause it looks pretty.
Once all those above are pointing up from an oversold position I enter the trade, usually a spread bet, once the trade is ten pips in profit move stop to entry for a risk free trade. If trade goes against me ten pips get out quick.
To find trades I look one month maybe two ahead, look for stocks reporting interim, full results or going ex-dividend. Look at 5 year, 1 year and last six months chart for history and direction.
So GF no mystery, I am not a serious trader like yourself, I just dabble as a hobby.

here's an interesting one for you ......
not sure why today's dive, though this index is certainly a bit lively, but if the 200 dma is hit, then perhaps buy for the rebound

Yep Ive noticed builders coming off their highs.
I think some are pricing in interest rate increases later this year.

Got shot of it with most of my folio 2 weeks back.
Hope you did the same with yours.
No time to be brave in choppy markets like these.
The Sp was signalling something was wrong about a week ago.
