Follow Through IS Required

The close yesterday produced an Evening Star closing on the upper T-Line channel band. More selling and a close below yesterdays low $278.90 today or tomorrow could put price action on the blue Lower T-Line channel band or about $276.90. If a Red Volatility Stop Dot is created, the pressure on the bulls might make them run for safety about $273.50. A test of the 200 SMA is possible if the buyers don’t put a game together. The T-2122 chart 4Wk New High/Low Ratio saw weakness yesterday below the 80 line, and today we are likely to test the recent low. From the December low to yesterdays high the 23.6 Fib retracement would be $269.80, a nice healthy pullback, the 38.2 line would be at $262.95.

4-Hour Chart Evening Star

I often watch the 4-hour chart, and yesterday the SPY 4-hour chart ended the day with an Evening Star closing below the upper T-Line channel Band. The SPY looks to be opening lower today causing a high probability of price testing the Lower T-Line channel Band. A close below $278.50 will likely produce a Red V-Stop, first one in the past 18 days. Note we have not seen a Red V-stop on the daily in the past 41 days, that’s a lot of bullishness with no real rest. Yesterday’s 4-hour Evening Star was produced at the $280.00 resistance line with the 4wk New High/Low Ratio above 80. The VXXB chart closed with a solid piercing candle on the daily chart and a Morning Star signal on the 4-hour chart. Final comments: trend light in this market if the SPY fails the T-Line the $200SMA or $274.50 and $271.20 could be in the cards.

No Tariffs For Now

The tariffs postponed for now, and the pre-market has gapped. Today is Monday 2/25/2019, and the pre-market has gapped over our $280.00 resistance line and looks like it’s hanging on by a thread. As of the Friday’s close the bulls held there ground closing at $279.14 and once again price closed above the T-Line and 17ema the Red/Green line. The big question today is the $300.00 line going to support (the safety net, or will price fall back through? One thing I have learned in my 31 years of trading is that a chart can be overbought and stay overbought for a very long time. While many traders ovoid in an overbought area I have found some of the best and easiest profits are hidden in an overbought condition. If price falls back below $300.00, $279.40 would be the logical first target Good trading and have a wonderful day!

Ya Baby, It’s Friday

Ya baby, it’s Friday, and it’s payday at our house. For years I have used Fridays as a day to close out a few winners and losers, so I don’t have to worry and sleep so much over the weekend. And with the trade talks (turmoil) and the SPY so close to resistance this is the perfect Friday payday. With that said the bulls held us above the T-Line yesterday proving (for now) the buyers outnumber the sellers. The VIX did start to show a little fear yesterday but did not close over the current downtrend. The 4wk new High/Low Ratio chart is way overbought and cracked just a little yesterday. Did you know that being a trader you control how you manage your portfolio, risk, reward, paydays? So enjoy your weekend by taking control.

SPY Flashing Caution

The SPY is flashing caution yet eeked out another positive day yesterday as price tiptoes to the $280.00ish resistance line. On the weekly chart, the past 7 bars have closed over the T-Line with one PBO back to the T-Line and one Doji Continuation pattern that has pushed the price into the resistance area. The battle between the Bulls and the Bears is interesting at the $280.00ish level because the Bears have a possible Head and Shoulders on their side and the Bulls have the Inverted Head and Shoulders they have been working with and the recent Bullish run. Problem: As the battle begins to heat up we have found the weaker traders tend to be the biggest losers. Solution: Sit on the sidelines for a few days or have fewer positions and less invested in those positions. And be tougher with stops.

2/20/2019 Cautiously Bullish

The SPY closed slightly off its highs yesterday and so far has dipped lower premarket today (2/20/2019). While the bulls have made a fantastic 8 ½ week run the toughest challenge may lie around the $280.00 area. The T-line and the Red/Green line continued to support the candlestick price action and the price action yesterday and this past week still suggests the bulls have the upper hand. On the flip side the $280.00 resistance, price action being overbought, TC2000 T2122 (4wk New High/Low Ratio) once again pegged to the ceiling and being up 8 ½ weeks without a meaningful bullish pull back and test. We remain bullish but back to CAUTIOUSLY bullish. Selling into strength and base hits is a key factor in our success.

The SPY Remains Bullish

The SPY remains bullish with trade negotiations progressing, as you know the market does not like uncertainty. Resolving the trade war would put the market at ease when it comes to the trade war. The SPY has now broken out of the 200-SMA with the following trend. If you follow our Red/Green Trendicator, we have had 36 green dots and ZERO Red dots. Trading price action in a trend is so cool and profitable. If you are a T-Line follower price action has closed above the T-Line the last 30-days in a row. We will remain bullish as long as price action leads the T-Line and the Red/Green Line. If you would like to learn more about price action, the T-Line and the Red/Green Line check us out for a month and get a 30% discount. ✅

Bulls Are Doing Their Job

The SPY closed above the February high yesterday giving the bull another shot of Adrenalin to climb the wall if worry. The continuation pattern coming off the Red/Green Trendicator seems in good shape. The Red/Green is trending and the T-Line is trending above, when the engine runs it runs well. The next challenge for the bulls should be around $278.15 and a close below $270.00 good give the bear a little hope. The VIX-X chart is showing no fear hiding out under the Red/Green trend. We are still on vacation in Alaska, I have lived most of my life and it still amazes me.

Here are 4 stocks I am interested in, I will be looking for bullish follow through and positive trading. SNAP, AA, STZ, JUJ

Bullish Pattern On Vacation

For the past three days the SPY has been building a Bullish Continuation pattern and with the Government shut down deal I would suspect today will be another building block to the bullish continuation pattern. The Red/Green Trendicator is rising and price action is constructing a bullish pattern. I like that the T2122 chart has headed back up, but I don’t really like that it is back in the overbought area. Watch price action and always keep the trend in you favor.

FYI: I am in Alaska on vacation and yesterday I closed MDLZ for a nice 55% profit while looking at the beautiful Eagle River mountains and the sun come up. Here’s a nice way to start the day looking over the Keni River. I love being a stock trader.
