I describe the market action before the opening bell and after the close and discuss set-ups for the next day.
I’ve written in the past about a simple screener tool that highlights the five most overextended stocks from their 200 day Simple Moving Average and how you can use the data in different ways. Let’s start with the 5 top overextended stocks as of March 21st and then see what strategies may be used: Courtesy…
How far will the current pullback in the “Risk-On” markets last? Has the pullback already ended and are we going to start marching on to new recovery highs? Let’s take a look at the current weekly chart picture in the S&P 500, Gold, and Oil to see weekly lower support reference levels should these retracements…
I’ve been watching this level for a few days now and so far, a critical daily triple-confluence support level in Google (GOOG) is holding on cue. Let’s take a quick look at this level and the implications if the level holds… or cracks. Unlike the broader market, Google has not participated in a seemingly non-stop…
News travels fast across today’s highly correlated intermarkets (namely Gold, Oil, Stocks, Treasuries, and the US Dollar Index – along with corresponding related markets) and when news is tremendously bad, fall-out in the cross-markets takes a rapid “Risk-Off” effect. Let’s do a pre-market morning update on the four main cross-markets and how this changes the…
There’s an interesting similarity of price reference levels for the three main “Risk-On” markets – as they’re all balanced at critical support levels.

Let’s see the update on the market and get ready for the next phase: A couple of quick observations:…
On a short-term basis, the S&P 500 is contracting into a clean trading range between well-defined triangle or trendline boundaries you should know. Let’s take a look at two charts that show this range and the levels traders are watching closely: First, let’s look at the bigger 60-min picture which shows a clean symmetrical triangle…
