Comments are welcomed.
You have so many lines drawn on your chart, it would almost be confluence if price wasnt hitting any of them!

No PA, the divergence is wishful thinking at best, fibs arent as important as people like to think (they would never be my primary reason for a trade), there is a pretty clear trading range there over the last couple of bars.

Is it a good area? Sure - price has flipped on it a few times, which makes it a nice place to watch for some PA. But at the moment, I dont see a trade here. I'd want more than 'round number kinda nearby and some arbitary fib lines'... and I use pretty much any excuse to get short eurchf.

(also, you may as well lose that volume indicator)

You know you have a procrastination problem when you decide to mark up 200 stock charts instead of doing your work. Stupid Mondays.

What is the difference between Russel 1000 and 2000???
Grab the Nasdaq 100, FTSE100, maybe the Nik225/DAX30/CAC40/ASX50 if you are desperate. Just check the daily turnover and the insider ownership if you are adding smaller caps... otherwise, you are just asking for trouble.

Skip AMEX and Russell. In general, they are too thin to really be tradeable. Obviously there are a bunch of Rus1k companies are liquid, but they will show up in your S&P and Dow scans anyways. The rest arent really worth the headache IMO.

The Russell3000 is a bigass index of the top 3000 US equities (across all exchanges). It represents 98% of all tradable equities.
The Rus1000 is the top 1000 companies of the Rus3000, which represents 90%. You are already seeing most of them in your Nas and SP500. The rest arent worth the headache.
The Rus2000 is the bottom 2000 companies of the Rus3000, which represent 8%. That's why you want to avoid it.

You can use currency futures for the same purpose, but they are generally a bit thin. Alternately, you can construct your own synthetic - that's likely all your broker is doing anyway (assuming they arent just a straight bucket shop).

That only works for an SMA

Either way, it probably doesnt matter. There are such a wide variety of market participants with such a wide variety of approaches which incorporate such a wide variety of MAs, timeframes and calculation methods that the little differences are unlikely to mean much at all.
