One of the interesting elements of the recent trading environment has been the willingness of investors to absolutely punish leading stocks or emerging breakouts. I would admit that some of that price destruction has been the result of earnings releases, but in other cases it has not the case. Nevertheless, for some traders the recent rally has […]

Computers - For now I am using two Dell Optiplex computers with four 19-inch monitors. I also have a Dell Inspiron laptop. I like […]

Here is some literature that I consider to be valuable to any trader. I was inspired by my co-author James Brumley.Â
#1 “How To Make Money In Stocks” (Third Edition) - William J. O’Neil

For most of my career as a trader I have targeted stocks breaking into new high ground from solid base formations such as a base-on-base pattern, cup with handle pattern, high tight flag pattern, cap pattern, etc. Occasionally a stock breaks out from a new base only to reverse back into the base prior to […]

Over the course of the last two days I have been reviewing leadership stocks, top industry groups and screening for relative strength champions. The purpose of this process has been to remain prepared for a possible reversal in the markets.Â

On the weekend I noticed that the put/call ratio hit 1.43 on Friday. I went back and I found that to be the highest reading since mid-May 2006. Moreover, the 5-day and 10-day moving averages of the put/call ratio are over 1.00 now. Yet, despite the nervousness our MFCA Indicator is holding strong, the number […]

A critical component of our screening process is an intensive review of the top 50 industry groups listed in Daily Graphs Online.  This review is conducted on a daily basis after the market close. We also look at those industry groups that have jumped in the rankings, but have yet to close within the top […]

The Cup With Handle pattern has gotten a lot of coverage throughout all the popular trading sites. It’s popularity has lead to increased competition to trade those patterns creating order fill problems. In order to get past this problem and to improve our fills we have been using a Cup Completion Cheat pattern whenever possible.
