You can just Re-Read yesterdays report on the General markets , and then come back here and see how much clearer it looks with the charts supplied today. Yesterday I was saying that Futures where up , but could it last? ....
Well, Let me just start with a chart that I posted yesterday ...
Now check this out...
Read More(This report was written Tuesday night )
Warning, this report goes against " common group think" Why? Well , I want to show why slowly but surely it looks like the "Buy The Dips" crowd may be exiting the building and the next few charts may be proof. AAPL & YHOO had pretty good earnings, can they save the day? Or will it prove to be just another bounce? We shall soon see, but it's also another F.O.M.C. Wednesday and as you know...anything can happen after 2 P.M. Eastern time! In the meantime, lets glance at a few charts.
MSFT - Oh she used to be a wall street darling. This is a Weekly chart and so far the volume is HUGE for 2 days.
Is that just a fluke? A one bad amongst many beauties? ...
Read MoreDue to the Storm approaching New England, I may lose power ( As mentioned in my wkend report), So I want to share a few possible trade ideas for you to watch , in case I wont able to post anything tomorrow. Let me start by showing you an Energy stock that got taken out to the whipping post. It is beaten down and double bottomed. It seems like all of the downside ( At least for now) has been met. Risk reward is skewed toward less risk (Using stops) and more upside potential if conditions play out. Some of these stocks could just "Bounce" and do very well.
EXXI WEEKLY - Double bottom with a MACD cross?
Why would I call it low risk though? Isnt it high risk, in danger of getting cut in half again? Well, consider this...
Read MoreHave you ever seen Black Ice? living in New England I've seen it a lot. It looks like solid dry black pavement, but Suddenly you see someone walking along and Whoosh! , their feet fly out from under them and they are flat on their back. Invisible Ice. Well on occasion, I've seen something similar occur in the markets. You're going along and all things look solid and safe when suddenly...Whoosh! things slip away. I want to mention this now and first off, so that THAT image sticks in your mind when I cover the weekdend report.
Our recent consolidation that was looking a little Bearish in many ways (as shown in prior reports) Got Draghi juice and suddenly looks a little more normal. This is the SOX index on Friday
Does that mean we'll break out in Bullish fashion soon? ...
Read MoreDid you see the $USD? Did you see the QQQ's? Did you see $Gold? Looks like "Happy days are here again" ? Well the markets certainly did react strongly after the ECB announcement, but will it last? Can it last? It really raised more questions than it answered, so lets look at some charts.
SPY - Which was struggling below the 50 sma got a bit of a boost yesterday
In some ways , the 3 Q's looked even a bit better...
Read MoreMany times when markets move , they are often setting up for the next trade. As things are setting up , Its not always possible to tell if the set up is Bullish or Bearish. I have mentioned here what I am seeing in the markets, but with the ECB meeting taking place and the results of that meeting not being released until (supposedly) 8:30 Eastern time, the goal is patience. Often traders & investors dont realize that over trading can cause one to slowly give back the gains recently made. So while we need to invest to make money, we also need to learn patience to be able to avoid knee jerk reactions and head fakes. While we wait....Quick review.
NOTHING has changed with the SPX,QQQ,DJIA, etc
Like yesterdays report 'Groundhog Day" mentioned, as time goes on, not much has changed. One thing I did notice is...
Read MoreI feel like I'm living in that movie Groundhog Day, where you wake up and though some things continue to change, its just a repeat of yesterdays events. The equity markets moved a bit , but its the same old movement, and leaves me with the same conclusion. As for GOLD & Miners, NATGAS, and Oil? I am expecting changed that I will discuss here.
First lets look at the SPX as of yesterdays close
You can see that we are getting the same movement as expected and ...
Read MoreI've started this report a few times and there is so much going on, that I found it difficult to explain everything that I see, so I'm just going to cut to the chase and try to show basically what I am observing in various markets and what the possible implications could be. Lets start again with the general markets. SPX, QQQ, DJIA in JANUARY are still unfolding as I thought they would way back when I posted this in DEC. I saw weakness increasing
Our expected sideways consolidation continues before a directional move takes hold. We look for weakness or signs of strength going forward, to see if this is going to resume as bullish or bearish (short?) Here is what I'm seeing...
Read MoreIts option expiration and often we get a large push of volume . The markets are looking more and more like they are heading in the direction that I have been calling for.
I pointed this out on Jan 6
It has followed that exact path and this is what I am thinking going forward...
Read MoreVolatility is here and the markets are rocking and rolling. If you have been reading my thoughts here, you know which ones are 'Buy the dips' and which are not. Lets review.
I said that I was interested in this , for one thing. A break above 22 would be 'Interesting' to say the least. Do you know where we are now?
Well, the markets gapped down big yesterday and and thus Vix gapped open to 24 recently and then sold off back under that line to $21.50 yesterday . Is that the end of it?
