Friday The Dow closed back under the 200-day EMA. The 50-day EMA is at 12653 so could bounce a bit in that general area as has former support. BMRN, was a new long play today and ran up well while VLO a profitable short.  PWE and ROSE gapped up. Have a great weekend and sign up for the free newsletter on the top right if you are not yet subscribed.

Thursday It was a slow day today and we expected it would slow down after 3 weeks of such constant action. We had a could o  movers but then did not move much.  RPM  hit the buy price but  MTRX gapped over it a bit. The best mover of the day did not make it to the watch list but was in the chat room.  CTDC and it did really well. This is it intraday as it closed somewhat lower.

Wednesday The markets closed at support by a tiny bit but the bears may win that battle and more downside to come. We had 4 long side trades today so a good day. ENT, FFIV, PPC and OCNF. Intra day chart.

Tuesdayy Markets pulled back to pivot points and rallied back as oil made new highs. We had a couple of new buys -  ENER a nice move and now t a new level also - and ASIA.

Monday A bland market day as the oversold bounces were in oil and gold as expected and a few others that had pulled back. I guess we will get another dollar bounce soon but think the market needs some more pullback. We had 3 new break out buys today  SCRX, HEES and CNHR.

Friday We had 27 new break out buys this week - actually one was a short - but a really excellent week. The market ran up at the open to allow folks to take some profits after the big Thursday move. We had two more buys today and many gap ups. The two were - JRJC and AIG . Have a great weekend!

Thursday Out with the old and in with the new. Rotation out of the big winners of the year and into some that could spring to life. Too early to tell but some good trades today and short covering sure helped. As quite typical the market acts one way on the day of a Fed announcement and the opposite on the next. Today we had 9 new watch list break out buys - Fantastic in last 3 weeks that is 78 winning trades-  SRI, VIV, FIG, VRSN, XRT, NPD, CAR, T, and ADS.

Wednesday The Fed cut 25 basis points so now at 2.00% and discount rate at 2.25% and they could have hinted more strongly at being at an end of cutting but they didn't. It would have helped the dollar. Well gold may now rally a bit but do not think the correction is over. We had two very good gainers today on new buys from our watch list -  RHB, COCO and SGMS.

Tuesday  Not much movement in the markets as I think they are still waiting for the Fed on Wednesday. There will also be the first quarter GDP figures. Nasdaq 100 was the gainer today as I guess money that came out of oil, cold etc when into tech. We again had 5 new buys - like it was still a roaring bull market. BRO, CYBS, ETM, XPRT and RHT. One short was BPHX.

Monday  The markets may be in a holding pattern in front of the Wednesday FOMC statement. We said we would leave on AOB and it moved nicely with other new buys including EJ, HCBK, GTE,  JBHT and PSEM. ONNN had a good move also - we forgot to show it last week on trades.

Friday  Kind of a slow market day as the indexes closed near flat for the day with a slight gain for the week We had two from the watch list become buys - (we will leave AOB on as it only moved up 10 cents) DLTR made a profit but VMW gained almost $5. Have a great weekend!

Thursday In front of Microsoft earnings the market rallies and several chip stocks did very well. From our watch list yet another banner day as we had 7 very profitable buys. JRJC, LTD,  CNQR, CVGI, GMST, SBAC, WU. You will not find such great results on any other site - absolutely.

Wednesday  Another decent consolidation day in front of earnings -- they will decide what happens next. We had 6 more stock trigger long from our wtch list today -  GSI, HMA, HYV, OPXT, CADX and VIT. Wasn't this one nice today!

Tuesday It was a good day today if you trade the index futures as the set ups on shorting were very easy and had excellent risk/reword. The markets pulled back with 3 times more decliners than gainers in front of some big tech earnings. Our stock trades were similar to yesterday we had 3 new longs from the watch list ARUN, VLO, VAL and 1 short EEE.

Monday Volume today was the lightest of the year but good consolidation after last weeks big gains. We had an excellent start of the week. Remember though that therr are gaps in most indexes and they may fill. Today 5 new longs  EEB, IMMR, ITRI, BQI, WLT and one short  GIM. IMMR did not make a lot of gain but I like the chart and think it has more to come. Check earnings dates on all holds. Don't get surprised/

Friday  Thanks Google for the great rally day today and we had 5 new buys - hope you did well and have a great weekend. Today's trades BW, CRUS, FREE, MIPS, SAFM and PMCS gapped.

Thursday  A pretty good market consolidation day and after the close GOOG announced good earnings so we may continue the rally tomorrow. Today we had three new longs - FDG, COCO and ANPI while a short with  ABH .

Wednesdayy  Intel beat and a few others came in with not as bad as expected results and the market put in a nice rally almost to the April highs. We have seen this action many times this year and we would need good follow through. IBM is out with good numbers though it was expected so will see on Thursday how the market responds. We had again 8 long break outs from the  watch list today - a very good week! SMMX , MGPI, JOYG, FSLR, TNK, PCU,  NUAN and INFN.

Tuesday  The markets held in there as earning's season picks up. No one seems anxious to get in front of any announcements. We had an excellent day with 5 long break outs and 3 shorts that made profits plus a few from the chat room today. Our watch list trades were: BUCY , PQ, DIG, REDF and, EGHT andnd SBS, TASR and IUSA ere the new buys.

Monday  The markets did little on the lowest volume of the year but IMO this is a negative at least short term. Still though, we had 3 long break outs that made profits today and that is our goal so it was a good day.  BBND , MIR and IVAN were the new buys.

Inta-day on BBND

Friday  The poor GE earning's report killed the bullish market mood for the day. Next week we have reports from GOOG, INTC and IBM and maybe a good surprise on one of those could turn things back up?? Regardless - that is next week, for now enjoy your weekend!

Thursday  The market gave back much of its early gains later in the day but it was still a positive day as buyers were out and that is what you need to keep the prices rising. It is earning's season and this action suggests that if we get some positive surprises we could see a good rally. Today we had little watch list action though PFB turned out good as a short entry today.

Wednesday  The market continued the pullback but on light volume so maybe some spark will come Thursday or Friday to run us back up. We had 3 new longs today so nice gains -  CF, MOS and NOG.

Tuesday  This afternoon as the Fed minutes were released the market sold off again as they were quite gloomy. But then they decided this was priced in and they rallied a bit closing off the day's lows.  GTLS was a nice long side break out and DTPI made some gains as well. CBMX gapped up over our buy price.

Monday  Actually the market does not need to pullback if it can keep going sideways a little more as that also will work off any excess conditions. Today was a good consolidation day though again light volume. For our watch list a great start to the week with 7 new trades triggering. 5 longs and 2 shorts. Longs were- CMCSA, CRK, FLS, GEECF, and TQNT while the shorts were - IGT and DUG.

Friday  With the employment report weaker than some expected the markets did a good job and held up well.  We had 3 more upside buys - HERO, OI and SWN while TEF gapped up. That is 25 trades for the week - a great way to start the new quarter. Have a great weekend.

Thursday  The employment report will be Friday morning 8:30 and we may see some stronger moves. Today the markets did a good job again holding their ground after the big move up Monday/Tuesday. We had 5 more longs hit their buy points - excellent week with 21 trades so far. Today's : AG, FDG, PIR, PMCS and GRA.

Wednesday  The Market had a good consolidation day and may set up for a new leg higher. We had 8 new break out buys today after 4 yesterday so a great start of the month.   ANW, FCFS, LHCG, LNN, PXD, KWK, SIMG and RRC.

Tuesday  The Dow continued from the 50% bounce started yesterday and as we said - if they can then go over the 38% retrace they often go back to the high in this case it was 12, 622 - which it did. We had AKS, VPHM, RECN and CSGP all trigger as longs today.

Monday  The Dow bounced within a point of the 50% retrace as we expected but not much else going on. Today we had the three shorts trigger -  FHN, IAR and CV. HA gapped up on the open so only a 15-min gap play.

Friday  From the March low the 50% Fibonacci retrace for the Dow is at 12,172 so we may find a reversal in that area. We had 2 news longs that made a profit - PTEN and ANR plus 2 shorts that did well also - MTG and ACF. Have a great weekend!

Thursdayy  repeat of yesterday with markets still pulling back. I expect a low again next week and then a resumption of the rally. We booked on new buy today in NANO.

Wednesday  Market pullback continued - still above the 50% retrace of latest move. We had one new buy trigger.  MANT.

Tuesday  Consolidation day not much to report. See you tomorrow - did you notice two 33,400 buys of NNRI at the close. I did!

Monday  The rally continued in this end-of-month end-of-quarter window dressing time. The signals all good except not the volume - without that it will be hard to make a lasting stand. Today we has 5 new buys. SLAB, HUBG, CAVM, USB and HOV.

Thursday  The markets made a good comeback today after  yesterday's severe correction. Gold continues lower and may work in its corrective phase a few months. On on watch list one gapped up d a HWCC while LF and PLXS were profitable long trades. On the short side EOG gapped  down while ABAX, PCU and RIG were profitable shorts. Have a great long weekend.

Wednesday  The dip buyers had no power today - they tried a bit but gave it up most of the day.  We had one new short trigger today -  MMAB.

Tuesday  The rally continues as the Fed cuts again and we had nice gains in three new longs from the watch list. FCFS, HCBK and CRUS.

Monday  We had a recovery in the indexes but the market internals were pretty poor. From our watch list it was a good day with 6 new shorts. COMS, ADBE, CEG, ERIC, FBR, KOPN. 

Saturday  We were off for a couple of days but will be back Monday.

Tuesday  Turn-around-Tuesday strikes again and strongly! Yesterday we had 3 shorts and one long. AMR, BSC and HANS - long was SMTX. Today one long triggered - WSO.

Friday  Bad week if you were holding longs with no stops. For the week, the Dow, Nasdaq and S&P 500 fell 3.0%, 2.6%, and 2.8%, respectively. We had a decent week. Only one long today with ACIW and it gave back its gains so can likely be played again at some point. We had 6 shorts trigger today. EDS, GE, LTD, MRK, PDGI and SBUX. Have a great weekend -

Thursday  Continued market declines on more mortgage problems. Jobs report at 8:30 on Friday could send us either way. We had some nice additional gains on recent short sales and one new one PNK and a news gold stock long EGO did very well today.

Wednesday  Had to post early today - one short - COST IHP and PNK triggered today and made profits..

Tuesday  We did get our turn around Tuesday after the markets hit their lows at about 2PM. The Dow moved up 190 points from its low. We had 7 AYR, CECO, CVLT, EBAY, FFIV and GKK. Plus even MRK went lower but it gapped down.

Monday  Consolidation market day. We will be going lower but still l may get a good bounce - maybe a turn around Tuesday? BLOG and CDE were new longs today while JNJ, DRYS and MOT were shorts.

Friday  Ending the week lower than the start after today's big sell off. The best is not to stay too long or short but take profits as they come and then keep tight stops on remaining open positions. We  had two nice long plays form our watch list - CHNR and penny stock GTEC. And we had one new short - ORB as our short CBS gapped down at the open. Have a great weekend all.

Thursday  Market continued pullback - at least the Dow to its 38% retrace from this last rally run up. We had one nice short UA and one nice long SATC today.

Wednesday  A calm day. And unusual as we had no new buys.

Tuesday  An amazing day for our break out list as 12 hit their buy points. AKS, EAT, CPHD, HBHC, HHS, IFSIA, MSO, MYL, NWY, ROST, USO, AUY plus we had two that gapped up at the open - TER and HTCH. Quite a day!

Monday  An excellent day with very good entries in the indexes for day trades and we had 6 break outs from our watch list. AEZ, CNI, ECA HRL, HPT and PXP..

Friday  Markets off most of the day until last half hour's big comeback on a rumor of a bailout of bond insurers. This put us back in the same range. We had 4 nice trades today from the watch list. Longs CMED, FARO and IGT plus the short ORCL which recovered later in the day.

Thursday  From day to day market cannot decide if rate cuts will help or only cause inflation. Four new buys today were CYMI, PTEC, VNUS and FCX.

Wednesday  Good action today in futures after a morning dip the rally got legs. We had a couple of very nice break outs including steel, copper and eggs.   AKS, PCU,  OLN and CALM plus MOS ere the new longs and they made nice gains.

Tuesday  They started the short week with a gap up which is always suspect - then it lost all the gains - not so unusual. The two new longs from our watch list were in the higher priced range BUCY and CF. 

Friday  Day before the long weekend and not much happened. We only had one new long EGLE and it gave up its early gains so may go a second time also. NNRF continued now with 6 days in a row green. That has not happened since November so I guess it marked the final low. We have a  TV page with a couple of interesting channels.

Thursdayy  NNRI up on good volume over center Bollinger band and trend line. Year end results expected within a month though not  yet scheduled. The Dow gave back all of yesterday's gains this options expiration week. Today we had one short -  BX, two longs COG and ILMN. ILMN gave back its gains and maybe can be played again.

Wednesdayy  Volume was not great today but not too bad for a bear market rally. It is options expiration week so maybe some more upside to come? We had 7 new break out buys today - great. TTI, CSIQ, DOV, CF, MNTA, LYTS and CA.

Tuesday  Good rally for morning and then it gave back some and rallied again at the close. Volume though was not great - may have been only a oversold bear bounce. We had two longs trigger from the watch list - CLWR and  RPM.

Monday  Decent market rally today for futures players. We had a couple of new buys and some that added gains from Friday. CREE and CNX were the two new break out buys today but CLF added many more points onto Friday's gains and NYNY was at it again today with over 68% gains.

Friday   A very nice day with was heavy volume and good breadth.  We had 11 new trades from the watch list trigger and many more continue to gain.  XTLB, VCGH, TUP, SNS, MEE, ICO, LVS, EMKR, STEM and CXG. ABAX was a short. That is 27 stocks that hit their buy point this week -- solid week. Have a great weekend all!
