This probably is not a good sign for the SP:SPX , as these assets are highly correlated (0.88) and normally AMEX:CPER leads the business cycle. Also, the TVC:VIX is back above 20 and NASDAQ:TLT hasn't resume its downtrend. Even the dollar AMEX:UUP is showing strength again. I'm 87% in cash and also have tighten all my stops. Let's wait and see if the...

The price has formed a head and shoulders pattern and now I'm waiting for the follow through above $50. The OBV and the RS ratio vs the S&P 500 are near new highs confirming the strength in price action. Still, I'll wait for the breakout to buy with a price target at HKEX:62 for a +25% profit. You can see that I was stopped out on MARCH 2022, can you imagine...

After a double-bottom, the stock price pulled back to support and now is breaking out and getting near its IPO price. The OBV is already above its IPO levels and the MACD keeps trending higher. Also, AMEX:XLK is the leading sector, this should help NYSE:IOT price action. I entered 1/3 of the position as the market still needs more work to get...

The 20-year bonds ETF is near a key breakout level that should confirm a new uptrend in bonds. This should be followed by a breakout above 4,100 in the SP:SPX . Just look a the bullish divergence between the MACD and the price of NASDAQ:TLT , its a very good signal. Let's wait for the breakout and follow through.

RS ratio and OBV already broke out and are near highs. I added today for the CMT Investment Challenge in anticipation of the breakout above $280. If it breaks that resistence level I'll buy for my personal portfolio.

You can argue that there are several stocks that are working. I profited on two stocks this month but weren't big profits. Some say that is still a bear market, others that is already a bull market as the NASDAQ:IXIC already rallied 20% from its low. I will just say that is an unhealthy market. This -8% drop in the CBOE:SPX wasn't a normal correction. Just...

After the bottom in May of 2022, the price gapped up and broke through its resistance in $550. Then formed a base to digest this move before continuing its trend up, this was my signal to buy as it broke out above $636. After that it didn't follow through and its RSI signaled weakness so I sold. I don't like to hold positions that aren't going anywhere even if...

AMEX:JNK is an ETF that tracks rated high-yield bonds or "junk bonds". These are the bonds rated Ba1 & BB+ by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., & Fitch Inc. respectively. The bullish divergence with the ROC is pointing out that a bottom is near. Bonds bottoming is a good sign for the market and breakout to the upside should confirm a healthy uptrend for...

Whenever I find two stocks acting well I always want to buy the best but, how to know this? Both are forming a shark pattern in the weekly chart, and both are from the same industry, semiconductors. So how to choose? For me, a simple ratio will do it. It will show which one is outperforming the other. In this case NYSE:STM is being buyed more aggressively...

Immunocore Holdings is a commercial-stage T cell receptor biotechnology company working to develop and commercialize transformative medicines for oncology, infectious diseases and autoimmune and inflammation diseases. In a confirmed uptrend, yesterday signaled a good pivot buy where I placed an initial position. I liked the volatility contraction pattern and...

NASDAQ:IBKR may be one of the leaders of this sector. Back in February of 2022, the relative strength ration with AMEX:XLF showed a bullish divergence against the stock's price; soon after, the stock bottomed and since has rallied +50%. The $80 level is key and the price has formed a shark pattern near it. As the stock is in an uptrend, I'll wait for the...

Metals have been performing pretty good, AMEX:DBB is up +21% in the last 6 months and above its 200-day MA The copper ETF, AMEX:CPER is up +12% in the last month and breaking out from resistance. Could AMEX:SLV follow up? and after silver could AMEX:IAU ? I'll wait for the breakout above $22.50 with target at $26.

Who else is waiting for this breakout to happen? If it does, a good target would be $125 and I like the odds. Just look at NYSE:SLB , NYSE:RIG & NYSE:HAL , they have already broke out from there bases. Look for other stocks within this ETF and you will find good set ups. I'm doing it. NYSE:WHD & NYSE:NOV are near pivot points.

Since late 2021 NASDAQ:MEDP is being forming a head & shoulders base with pivot buy above $230. This is the beahvior of a potential leader. It shows when comparing it against the AMEX:IWO as is still in a downtrend. The play for me would be to buy 1/2 or 1/3 of a position just above yesterday's high with a STOP-LOSS below $196. And then add at the $230...

According to TA rules, the ratio has completed the pattern with a Complex Right Shoulder (two peaks). Those these means that the SP:SPX should breakout from that downward trendline? I don't know, but probably. Or those it means that energy stocks should finally follow oil prices? Maybe, it is what normally had happend. What I'm seeing is more stocks going up,...

I don't know if I even have to explain this chart. Is just too easy to see. The number of SP:SPX stocks above its 200-day MA confirmes a bear market when crosses below 50, and confirms a bull market when crosses above the same level and stays there. It has happened for the last 3 bear markets. Also, is good to point out that is better to use it for bottoms...

Or tighten stops. At least that is what I did with NYSE:DINO and it looks like I was right. This stock was one of the first #oil stocks to breakout to new highs after the June correction, that's why I bought it. Now it seems like is also the first to break below support levels. I´ll be watching the other #oil stocks. Always manage risk! Never average down!
