I'm a swing trader of momentum stocks with a holding period of anywhere from a few hours to a few months. I run a number of screens to locate the strongest/weakest stocks out there, using technical analysis to determine my entries and exits. Trying to calculate the intrinsic value of stocks in ...more

Uranus, Technology, And Progress
For those who integrate astrology into their trading decisions, we periodically post a moon cycle chart in conjunction with the Dow Jones chart. May 14th has a very significant full moon in Scorpio...
Difficult Environment For Traders & Investors
This is a difficult environment for both traders and Investors; there is just too much uncertainty on both the short and longer term time-frames. This is why I like to take somewhat of a “back seat” approach to the action, let the price prove me wrong and allow these Cycles to keep rolling along.
Monday Night Chartfest
Bonds look to be moving into resistance. This is going to take some significant buying pressure to push this through resistance and if it happens then the market will be in trouble as the markets usually head lower when bonds rise.
Last Chance For Bull-Market Correction
In the following analysis of stock options, it will be shown that from now through at least September, any dip in the S&P below approximately 1800 would be a strong indication of the presence of a Bear market, with one exception..
Expect Lower Prices In Crude
Crude is a wonderful asset to trade when it follows the typical Cycles script. For the most part, it does this really well, moving deliberately from one Cycle pivot to the next (From Low, to High, back to Low).
Is A Bullish Move In The Stars For May?
The markets for 2014 have proved to be different and more difficult to trade than in 2013. Quick pullbacks and trend reversals are cropping up on a weekly basis.
Not Seeing Anything Worth Buying
The markets bounced off the lows today and after much selling on Friday & Monday morning, it appears we could be in for a short term bounce in the markets. It doesn't necessarily have to happen so I wouldn't be a buyer trying to profit from an upswing, but if you have shorts it could be a good idea.
Many Stock Owners Consider Divorce In 2014
The S&P 500 is currently stuck in no-man’s land – Bull Market Stage 3 – technically bullish, yet so weak that a significant pullback in stock prices is not out of the question. It has now been stuck on this battlefield for about 4 months, with neither the Bulls nor Bears making any progress.
Hallmark Of A Bull Market
I'm not surprised to see the S&P up 60 points in just 8 sessions, it has been a hallmark of this bull market to rally sharply out of oversold Cycle Lows. We’re now seeing the type of strength I wrote about this past weekend. The call to mark it the 2nd Daily Cycle was the right call.
How We Close Tomorrow Will Be Important
Tomorrow isn't going to be a game changer by itself but it could be the start of something if we get a strong close. However I wouldn't start to call it a victory for the bulls because many of my internal signals are still pointing down and there has been a severe lack of new leaders during this earning season.
Caution For Long Stocks When Long Calls Fail
With the U.S. markets currently in a long holiday weekend, many traders are likely enjoying a break from market analysis. So here is something to consider that will only take a few moments, but may prove to be an immense help during the week ahead.
Key Dates For Financial Astrology
I have been stressing the likely charade of the global elite, involving the Ukraine, to distract Americans, remove the dollar as reserve currency, only to replace it with some other distorted form of money, or digital currency. The current scenario may have been worked out some time ago to divert attention from who is really orchestrating and choreographing this stage play.
Options Validate Simple-Moving-Avg Analysis
A simple-moving-average, also known as an s.m.a., can be among the most useful technical tools a trader will ever encounter. S.m.a.’s are often helpful in revealing the type of trading environment – for example, a price that consistently bounces higher from a 50-period simple-moving-average is generally a healthy, bullish sign.
How To Track Option Prices
Obtaining the price, or premium, of an option can be both difficult and expensive. That may be surprising to some, as there are so many financial sites that provide free viewing of option chains.
Path Of Least Resistance Is Higher For Dollar
The action out of the dollar is not exactly blazing. But what I can say, with little doubt, is that it has none of the characteristics of a final Daily Cycle. If the prior Investor Cycle were still in decline, I can assure you that the dollar would have failed and well on its way below 79 by now.
