Gold Avalanche: Scott's Highly Anticipated Subscription service is now open. See here for details: http://scottpluschau.blogspot.com/p/subscription.html

In my last post on Treasury Bonds I noted the "Minor" resistance level it was approaching.  The bonds bounced off this level at first, but when a support or resistance level gets tested it gets weakened.  See right hand side daily chart below.  This level should act as minor support for now and should be kept a close eye on in the near term.  There was been no reason from my perspective to short bonds once they reached "Major" support and that was noted in a prior post.

One pattern that is noticeable is the "Double Bottom" on the weekly chart.  See left hand side below.  I prefer double bottoms that take place in a downward trend, but it is worth pointing out.  The profit taking target off the double bottom pattern on the weekly chart has been noted.

For now the bulls deserve respect and bullish patterns and/or failed bearish patterns on a 30 minute chart are what I am looking for in order to "swing" trade as long as minor support continues to hold.  There are some key reference areas to work with in order to sell.  Perhaps a bearish "Triple Top" or "Head and Shoulders" may form, but I am only intuitively recognizing potential patterns in the big picture.  There is nothing bearish from a probability perspective with my methodology to act on right now.

On an important side note:  The "Subscription" tab has been updated with the new "swing/trade" model portfolio and trade alert service information and it can be found here:  http://scottpluschau.blogspot.com/p/subscription.html

The first issue of the new service will be extended to five weeks in order for me to hopefully get some unexpected or unforeseen kinks out the first week.  After the first week, the subscription will be closed to new subscribers for the next four weeks in order for me to focus primarily on the analysis, trade alerts, and commentary to subscribers, and not other issues or administrative duties.

The "About Scott" tab was updated recently as well here: http://scottpluschau.blogspot.com/p/about-scott.html
