On Wednesday the market tanked, and yesterday it rallied… What to do?!
It looks like the last couple of weeks’ commentaries still hold. There is a defiance within this erratic market behaviour that suggests short term upside but with medium term fragility.
Most of the stocks highlighted today will be of a bullish nature, but you do have to use our trade management practices to keep hold of your profits. In these conditions, protect your profits almost immediately.
That said, there are nuggets out there, with consolidating patterns presenting lower risk opportunities.
Market Outlook
In the short term I still expect the recent upward momentum to continue in its rather patchy way, before giving way to a meaningful downdraft.
Watch the video for more detail.
The Main Indices
The SPY has nudged back above its 50- and 200-dma’s.
The QQQ – as mentioned in the previous two weeks, there is more upside to come in the short term.
The IWM will likely see more upside during this earnings season before catching a cold.
As I’ve mentioned in the last couple of weekends and earlier in this note, the market is in the mood for further short-term upside, but you still need to be vigilant with your profit protection.
Market Timers
- Longer Term Market Timer (OVIsi): Amber.
- Medium Term Swing Timer: Positive and not overbought.
- SPY OVI: Neutral
Sounds like Groundhog Day… For a while it looked like the market would take a short-term breather midweek, but it rallied. That looks likely to continue in the short term.
