Prices fluctuate and sometimes get extremely overdone in either direction, but the Energy needs of this planet are not going away. Thats the main focus of this report, but first let me address the reversal in the markets today.
QQQ - I have been pointing out the WEDGE pattern in the NASDAQ, SPX, etc. Today I just want to point out an observation with todays reversal on the 10 sma. It looks like Markets want higher prices again.
The SPX was similar , but I want to point this out on the IWM/IWC before moving on to Energy and Metals mkts...

Men who can both be right and sit tight are uncommon. I found it one of the hardest things to learn. But it is only after a stock operator has firmly grasped this that he can make big money. - JESSE LIVERMORE
Jesse was a legendary trader in his lifetime. His experiences taught him that even though he was able to made good money trading, he also lost good amounts of money by over-trading. After decades of trading & investing, he offered the above advice, showing that patience can be rare, but also patience can be more rewarding if you know you are correct about a certain set up and patiently wait for it to unfold.
As a trader, I like to find & buy good set ups and sell them in a few days as they play out, but I also have tried to find proper set ups and allow them to play out until they are longer term rewarding. Let me give you a couple of examples of how "Sitting Tight when you know you're right" can pay off.

I am seeing some interesting things happening in GOLD & MINERS, I will discus that a bit here, but the weekend report may be quite revealing , since we will see a few more days of trading playing out. Lets just get to the charts...
Read MoreI was not so surprised to see the Energy sector doing so well yesterday. We've been expecting that next break higher for a while. I will say that I was surprised to see how quickly the markets shook off that jobs report , however. I mentioned in my weekend report that there were many nice stock set ups, so it was puzzling that the markets looked ready to break down. Well, just like that hypnotic dance forward in a conga line, the buy the dips crowd didnt want to skip a beat...
