Trend Day

The stock market pushed higher every hour today creating a solid trend day in the market and probably ran more than a few stops on the SPX. The DJIA was up 247 points today with the SPX up another 33 points and the Nasdaq up 89.

Advancing stocks led losers on the NYSE 3.3 to 1 and the volume was even more impressive with advancing volume leading declining volume by 8:1. The market has made a strong 3-day move of 3%.

In tonight’s video I look at the price action and talk about current scenarios. I also briefly check in on all trade ideas. Continue reading

Tonight I review all the current trade ideas including one entered today on Alibaba (BABA). I also talk about a new trade idea on Chevron (CVX). Continue reading

Teasing the Bears

After the market closed, Facebook (FB) reported earnings and the stock was up about 3%. FireEye (FEYE) on the other hand was trading down 14% along with Whole Foods Market (WFM) trading down 6% in after hours trading. Continue reading

Another Push Higher

The markets added another push higher today with a fair amount of volatility in the afternoon after the Fed announced no change in interest rates. The DJIA ended the day up 198 points and the Russell 2000 started to play catch-up also, up 33 points, almost 3%. 

Oil looks like it may trying to trap some bears with the move today. In tonight’s video I also talk about 2 new trade ideas on Apache (APA) and Chevron (CVX).  Continue reading

Has the Reversal Down Started?
