REA - Bullish Cup and Handle formingThe Cup and handle pattern has been pretty reliable with REA over the years and it looks like another bullish high probabilty opportunity is forming again. Conservative entry would be a bullish candle breakout above the top of cup or if you want to get in on the back of REA'S bullish fundamentals, todays price of approx $103 looks ideal. Ideally S/L approx $98. Minimum target shown in graph at approx $116.50.
Realestate
Real Estate sector in an up-channelEWRE has been in an upward channel vs. the S&P 500, and is currently near the bottom of the channel. That makes it an attractive buy today, especially after last week's extremely positive housing report that showed rents and property values rising and mortgage rates and inventory numbers falling.
Great Long Term Play for MGPNYSE:MGP
MGM Growth Properties has great potential to outperform the market. I believe that right now is a good pullback price and based on a DCF Valuation it is trading at a discount currently. $MGP is at a 6.57 Div/Yield rate and climbing. On top of the great dividend, it has shown solid Capital Appreciation and I'm looking for continuing growth. On top of this, MGP has solid intrinsic value in purchasing ground leases.
VNQ - Iron CondorThis is a study I wanted to do on strikes with abnormally high open interest and if it affects underlying price movement.
VNQ has pulled back from its ATH to inside the ATB neutral zone.
It also closed with a bearish engulfing candle signaling high probability of sideways to downward trend in next 30-45 days.
Testing a horizontal Iron Condor strategy based on strikes with Highest Open Interest on Monthly Expirations of Dec and Jan 2020.

These stocks have the highest dividend yields in the hot real-estate sector, FROM MARKET WATCH
With the Federal Reserve cutting short-term rates twice recently and reversing its decision to shrink its balance sheet earlier this year, along with continued stimulative central bank policies in other developed economies, there’s no reason not to expect the big money flow to continue, along with plenty of support for shares of real-estate investment trusts.

Lexington Property Trust a defensive growth stock for OctoberLXP blew away analyst expectations on its last earnings report, beating by 200%. It got a nice pop after earnings, then collapsed when it announced a $10 million share offering. It started to recover after it announced what it was doing with the money raised from investors: purchasing new properties to accelerate its growth. If LXP is as good a steward of the new properties as it has been so far, I'm not worried about the share offering; it should propel the company's expansion rather than dilute my shares. LXP has a 9.5/10 Equity StarMine Summary Score and is rated "undervalued" by the fundamental analysts at S&P Capital IQ.
Amidst the coming "earnings recession" this quarter, real estate is expected to be one of the few sectors that outperform. The sector as a whole is overbought, but LXP is a better value than most real estate stocks, having dipped to mid-RSI channel ahead of its ex-dividend date tomorrow. LXP pays a dividend of 10 cents per share, down from 18 cents per share last fiscal year. (I actually like a lower dividend, because it gives the company more capital to reinvest.) Unlike many dividend stocks, which take a big hit after the ex-dividend date, LXP's price usually takes its hit before the dividend and then recovers after. In my opinion this is a pretty good bet to buy ahead of the dividend and hold as value/growth stock for October.
EPISODE 9/11: US REAL ESTATE:WAVE VARIATIONS& INDICATOR TA(XLRE)Episode 9/11 : US (SPX) Sectors Technical Analysis Series - 31st of July 2019
Brief Explanation of the chart ( since everything is labelled on the chart ): (1 minute read)
First and foremost : The XLRE Index was formed very recently(2016), so obviously due to the lack of data this analysis should be seen at most as informative . Now, let's break down the chart :
Weekly XLRE chart labelled with 2 large structural supports as blue( 30$ ) & purple( 34-35$ ) rectangles. Furthermore, the wave/cycle variation can be broken down to 3 most probably variations :
Variation #1 ( Purple ): If the economy continues to be in a great state. US-China deal goes through and Trump wins 2020. Most bullish Scenario.
Variation #2 ( RED ): Trump wins 2020, but the global economy slows down/Deal takes too long to be completed. Still a bullish scenario either way.
Variation #3 ( Blue ): Bearish scenario . Dems win 2020, in which case we will have a recession in the nearby future, thereafter.
This is it. I do not think there's anything more to be said. I always let my charts speak the words that I am not willing to put the effort to say/write.
This is just a brief "free" and very detailed analysis. Perhaps in the future I might form a premium group, to whose members I will provide all the details of my research.
