Feb 22 Review

We've only seen one day of trading after a 3 day weekend in the U.S., so this report will just be a brief review of the markets and a few of the trade ideas discussed recently.

.

SPX - Nothing has changed here, we are seeing a strong move into new highs with no real resistance, I have targeted 2400 since the break out. It is getting quite over bougt and over heated.

More Low Lying Fruit?

 I wanted to put out a bonus report on Tuesday morning. Realistically we probably have enough on our plate, so if you are happy with your current positions, please just view this as a possible heads up for possible future trade set ups or a watch list going forward.  In the past few months we have been trading Energy, industrial Metals like CLF, VALE, WRN, NAK, X, etc. We have been trading in the Precious metals sector ( I also encouraged readers to buy & just hold on to some positions from the December lows forward ).

 You may also recall my special report in December on another sector that turned very bullish. We will discuss that a bit further here today, as well as what could be some more low lying fruit in another sector that may be sending out some bullish shoots.  These are just extra trade ideas for the active traders. Let's take a look...

Feb 18 Weekend Report – Another Big Picture Review

For the weekend report, I often feel the need to review the Bigger Picture to gain perspective. I am going to do that this weekend too. To open this report, I'm going to start with a scare tactic.  Yes, that's odd, but I see it all the time in the markets, and I believe that there is no better way to face your fears than to, well... Face Your Fears.

This Chart is an actual Real Bull Market that I have clipped for us to look at. I am calling it Gold ( though it wasn't) and it has a similar movement to what we just saw when the Miners ran higher in 2016 and peaked in July/ August, and then sold off.  The Fear tactic is that we always hear "Gold is in a bear market and must drop below $1000 to re-set."  Well, now I have heard that this was just a bounce and is an A-B-C-D down to $1000 in Gold & will put the Miners into single digits. Please read the chart.

Compare it to GDX currently -  We see the big run up in 2016, The peak in July/ August, followed by a strong sell off. All very similar to the above chart.  Are we in for a massive sell off? That is what I'm starting to hear again.  "GDX has hit resistance and is just too weak to push through."

Now that I've got your attention - lets look at the bigger picture in all sectors of the market, and answer that nagging question that is being raised above.
