This doesn’t mean the market is crashing tomorrow, but it DOES mean the momentum pattern finally broke. When that happens, you tighten stops and start planning for the most likely next move: a pullback into the pocket zone and a test of the 21 EMA.

John Carter

John Carter’s father was a Morgan Stanley stock broker. One day during high school, John came home from the mall where he was working at a store making cookies. He had saved up $1,000 over the course of a few months and his dad told him that he and some of his friends were going to buy “some call options on Intel” the next day. With his father’s direction, he bought 10 call options at $0.75, and sold them a few days later for $1.50, doubling his money. He was hooked and has been trading ever since—going on 25+ years now.
