The local market had the worst day for a month down 0.7 per cent yesterday after coming within 100 points of the all-time highs. At the time of writing it is down another 100 points.

The long ASX 200 cfd trade did not work out as expected. We closed half the position before the weekend to reduce our downside risk and closed the position at the close of trade Monday after a disappointing session.

The price of gold looks to be headed higher after overcoming a previous resistance level.

We sold the Harvey Norman position after it moved below the recent swing low.

Ooh Media is still stuck in a sideways funk and we will sell today and raise our cash levels while looking for other opportunities.

Paladin initially rose after purchase and is now back down close to our stop level.

Whitehaven Coal has moved below a recent support level this morning after the recent earnings down grade. Will it be a false break or the start of further falls?

Polynovo looks to be forming a bullish flag type pattern.

Anteo Tech the rapid COVID-19 test maker has seen some volatile moves ahead of European certification.

Adairs has just moved to fresh highs and a similar pattern is also visible on the Money3 chart.

City Chic has recently moved above old highs.
