US Dollar setting up (again!)
The idea is to follow the technical and macro trend that should keep the dollar trending higher. Some data points this week could offer traders an opportunity to enter so the timing on this is solid. I share four different ways to trade this idea in the update.
She’s Got Legs
Bounce? Check. Big bounce? Check. Bullish news headline? Check. Fails at resistance? Maybe not, let’s review the day after shorts were vaporized.
What’s next for natty gas?
It may not be what you think it is… with natty gas’ seasonal uptrend behind it, with the structure of the former uptrend broken, and with little expectation at the moment for a bullish narrative, the next trade in natty may surprise traders.
Market pulled back hard and isn’t ready for a rally yet.
The internals are very weak and many tickers have not found support for a bounce yet.
Is Santa a no-show?
There are three phases to a potential year end rally, we’ve already seen the first, and the second is still uncertain, Santa shows up last, and here’s how that could look.
Crying Jordan
News takes down markets across the world, but were the signs already there? Yes, and if so, they aren’t done yet; let’s review.
The trouble with trend transitions
It’s important to know and accept that all trends will transition to chop at some point but that all uptrends—when broken—are not immediately downtrends. This is 140 year old Dow Theory wisdom. But how do we measure it? I share how I do it and where you can get my (free) tools to make it as easy as possible.
Is This Time Different?
The Volatility Index (VIX) spiked this week and before I add more exposure in my long positions, I would ideally like to see VIX retreat below the 21 EMA down to a level of safety. In today’s video, we’ll walk through spots I want to get some exposure in with this flush in the market.
Are we out of the woods yet?
The market has been bombarded with three separate narratives: Govt shutdown, variant, taper. That is a lot to process and price in, but as we discussed previously, there are trends that are intact and could benefit from any one of those three narratives; that is where we focus.
Wild Ride Today!
In this video, we look at today’s crazy price action and try to make heads or tails out of it. Is this the start of a new downtrend or just another head fake and bounce?
