Last week I mentioned that the market was providing setups in both directions … We got that right! Oil and gas stocks and many financials benefiting from the recent sector rotations on the bullish side, while tech stock have been hammered on the bearish side – remember I mentioned put options last week. But conditions […]

This choppy market is providing setups in both directions. Remember, when stocks are falling we can profit by buying put options. And we can do that in the simplest way to ensure safety without any complications. Puts provide the safest and best way to profit from bearish conditions as you only have limited risk with […]
A slightly choppy week in a market where the vast majority of high quality stocks are miles away from their Key Levels. This means we’ve been fishing a bit more around the lower cap stocks, which can be fine, but it’s not my sweetest of sweet spots. That said, you can find some absolute gems […]
Another week, another innovation we release … and plenty more will follow shortly! The great thing about the new Fast Filter search function is that it enables you to manage as many combinations as you like with easy access. For example, there are two distinct OVI filters I want to identify in my Post-Earnings Fast […]
Well, that didn’t last long, did it! Last week I referred to the market resetting itself, only for it to come roaring back with the S&P and Nasdaq both setting new highs! And as we’ve always done, we have to simply Trade What We See … and right now that continues to mainly be bullish […]

What I mean by that is that you’re going to see constructive setups that are appearing right now, and you’re going to learn from recent setups – good and bad. The markets still smell somewhat over-extended, which is why I urge you to protect […]
This bull market keeps delivering winners … and big winners at that. It’s been a great ride, but do be aware that there are dangers when you’re sitting proudly on the back of a succession of great winners. The two dangers are that the market conditions will change while greed levels keep increasing, leading to […]
Happy 4th July and I hope you’ve enjoyed the short week. I’d still define the markets as not quite optimal, but there are still decent setups going in both directions, and a bunch of our preferred stocks have already enjoyed solid to spectacular breakouts. I cannot emphasize enough how you should look to specialize, even […]
This week continued where last week left off, but with a couple of significant extras. The Dow and Russell joined the S&P and Nasdaq above their 200-day moving averages as the market continues to confound. This week it was a combination of a weakening dollar, and on Friday an unexpectedly good jobs report. Just a […]
