Taking the Elevator Up
In this video I discuss the importance of keeping an open mind to move much higher next week. I specifically go into the Nasdaq to define where the big line in the sand is. Enjoy the long weekend and we’ll see you on Tuesday.

Next week we will all be watching to see if buyers step in at oversold support levels. This is what makes chop challenging and why we must wait for our edge at the edge in chop.
Thursday’s selling may very well see continuation into Friday, and possibly even Tuesday. This is the pattern I’m looking for inside that, and how I’ll be structuring trades into expiration.
Stocks have been under pressure for a few weeks now and there’s a fair chance there’s more of that to come. Whether you’re running the short lower or looking for the spot to buy, these 3 indications should help.
From the Dow to crude oil, gasoline, and gold… to the sectors to watch I cover why the Dow is the relative outperformer to watch and what seasonally we could see as we head into late January.

It’s been a choppy January and frankly the chop has been around since late November but one index is starting to show signs that it is the relative outperformer amongst the indices. It will also shine a light on the sectors to watch going into mid-February. Ultimately relative outperformers will handle this environment best, and it is our job to find them.

Always important to trade what we see not what we think. Once we have considered sector strength, FOMC messaging, as well as technical clarity, it’s the Dow that has emerged as the leader. Knowing that we also can build far better watchlist’s at the sector and stock level which is one of the reasons I prefer a top-down analysis approach. I walk through the process step-by-step in this video.
