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

Look At This Stock - ALIM
ALIM is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the R&D and commercialization of prescription ophthalmic pharmaceuticals. It's about ready to break out to new 2014 highs as soon as tomorrow and you can see that volume is definitely supporting each of the big moves higher.
Calls Of A Market Top Have Emerged
Equity markets have bled for two weeks and sentiment has declined markedly. The Nasdaq and Russell indices, leaders for good portions of the current bull market, are pushing lower and have dipped below their 50 DMAs.
Market Timing Update: US Up, Canada Down
In a week where my own personal portfolio experienced more volatility than it has in recent months we look toward a week where I expect some resolution. The Dow appears to be in a large wedge pattern where it should break one way or the other.
The Easiest In-Depth 10-Minute Market Analysis
Here is a way to analyze the current stock market environment in about 10 minutes or less using just a few simple steps. The following analysis, now in its third year, is presented each weekend in order to give traders an edge in their trading by improving the ability to recognize the current market environment and speed the reaction to any changes in that environment.
It’s A Precarious Time For Gold
This past weekend, I remained “on the fence” with regards to which direction gold was headed. Without clear evidence that the weekly (Investor) Cycle had topped, I had discussed how I was warming up to the possibility of this being a late stage 2nd DC, instead of the failed 3rd Daily Cycle scenario I had followed exclusively up to that point.
Look At This Stock - VTNR
This low volume stock could be one to watch as it ran up before earnings and after releasing them today it's held it's ground. I like this breakout with the strong move and if you are one to trade lower volume equities then this could be for you.
10 Days Of Strength For Crude Coming
The Gold Cycle might be confusing to read, but there is no such lack of clarity with Crude. The current action makes analysis straightforward because we now have a textbook Cycle low in place.
Gold & Silver Could Be In Trouble
It appears the easy money has been made off the 2013 lows and I just don`t know how much gas the metals have left. Up until today I was open to the idea that Gold has bottomed but if we don`t find support on near the daily RSI on gold then I think we`re heading back to the lows.
Look At This Stock - EONC
Today's sell off in EONC has taken this stock back to it's 40 level on RSI. After such a strong move this typically supports a stock and it finds a bottom to at least retest the highs.
Gold Confirms New Bullish Cycle
It is not often we see gold show two consecutive shallow and time based Cycle Lows. But that’s exactly what we’re looking at here, a Cycle Low which has occurred both early in the Cycle count and with only a minimal price retracement.
Brick-Wall Resistance May Develop Soon
For the past several weeks, the same theme has been repeated here. That theme – that March would be a month in which the S&P either soared towards 2000 or else puttered out – has not changed.
Rumor's Of Pending Crises April 11, 2014
I have suggested in the last couple of weekly updates to watch out for sudden reversals in the markets. The type of pullback we had yesterday fits that description.
Market Timing Signals: Mixed Bag
On March 11th the Dow finally went bullish via my market timing signal, as it was the last of the markets I cover to switch. Let's just say it barely had enough gas in the tank to push it green because today's sell off flipped it back to bearish as of today's close.
Stocks Are Overvalued, Overbought, & Over-Loved
I have received a number of emails from members who appear confused with what they see as contradictory comments about equities. I’m asked how I could be so bearish on the general economy and the quality of the current move while I remain invested in the market.
A Stock To Watch - Highpower International (HPJ)
This stock came up on my radar the last week of February when it rose on "new orders" as it sees increased demand for it's products in the alternative energy field. I don't generally look at stocks under 500k/day but this one is on the cusp as it's adv is now 450k.
Clocks, Stocks, Options Ready To Spring Ahead
Last week, readers here were alerted to the possibility that if the S&P 500 did not experience a pullback, it was likely to rally. Thus, the expectation was for either 2000 or bust for the S&P over the next few weeks.
