20050812 Another new high, just. 15198 is the previous 20 day high made 6 days ago, so this level remains focus of 'turtle soup' reversal short traders, if it ever comes. Range today was small, not quite an ID (inside day) but may be a good short if today's low taken out on Monday for a swing trade, since the turtle soup reversal level is so far away.

20050809 Big buying candle followed by big selling candlestick today. Divergence is still there, so maybe the HSI is retracing to alleviate the overbought conditions. Best to wait for the next clear cut signal, although some can try the aggressive short trade, given the closing below the moving average.

20050802 The bull continues unabated, helped by the previous day's good results of HSBC. Looking at the 1 August candlestick, it was a big white candle, opening at the low and closing at the high. Normally after such a pattern, the next day indicates folow through or at least close off any lows. Objectively, HSI looks overbought, maybe longs should look to lock in some profits.
