During earnings season you must always wake up early and monitor your new long positions to make sure none are gapping down. If they do, you have to sell. I did that yesterday with DVA and AGN (by not taking the new long signals) and I did it today with VCLK. However, by the time [...]

Another night with a lot of longs. This is getting to be pretty bullish. Sadly, I don’t have any FLT/SLXP quality charts that I want to put 10%+ into and considering nothing is exploding higher outside of buyable gap ups (ie KTCC) I will continue to trade small. There still is not enough conviction to [...]

It started off as a great day for the stock market but by the end of the day it was just an OK day. I have volume much higher today on the Nasdaq and while that would be good if we were up 1% today I am not sure what to make of it with [...]

It was a mixed bag out there today and that should leave everyone a bit gun shy here. It does appear we do have an earnings buyable gap up in FIRE in the morning. However, I am not listing it as a long until I can check it pre-market and see how volume is running. [...]

Friday was a solid session for the stock market. It did not end in the fashion that you would like to see a strong up day end but overall it was “good enough.” The best news about the whole thing is that for the third day in a row we had above average volume on [...]

This push higher returns the market model back to a BUY signal. However, it is very much a cautious BUY signal due to the overall volume and previous false signals. I will be working only a 5% positions in XHB. The lower than average weekly volume combined with slightly higher than average daily volume and [...]

Do you know nothing is working that should be working? I don’t either. Great chart patterns or good chart patterns blow up and horrible choppy patterns breakout and keep going. I don’t know what is going on out there but I have a feeling that this is what the market wants to do to knock [...]

Just got back from a boat trip with the girlfriend. Maui really is unbelievably beautiful from the ocean. This should be my last late post for a while. Thank you everyone for allowing me to spend some early day time with my girlfriend before she went back to work for another week. Anyways, today was [...]

I was out teaching 4 people that work with Jill surfing lessons today. My apologies for the late post. Thanks to FONR I am back to trading scared. Wonderful. If it isn’t High Frequency Trading, the Fed, or Europe, it is something else. Today, it was the pre-market session which I f*cking hate more than [...]

Today was indeed confirmation of the SELL signal, in the Nasdaq. However, overall, it was not enough for me to say “let’s push all-in here!” We still need to see a day where the whole market sells off on convincing volume before I go 100% into any one inverse ETF or go short 10-20% of [...]
