Video Review of the Indexes 3-16-2012
March 16, 2012 at 4:50 pm
The indexes were able to push past some important levels last week to continue their uptrends, and we actually saw some acceleration for the first time in a while.
Selectivity remains the key for new plays, which I’ve been noting within the member area. A number of stocks remain within uptrends, but it hasn’t been the kind of market which has rewarded buying blindly.
In preparation for the trading week ahead, let’s examine some important levels to keep an eye on for the indexes. That will have the greatest influence on how individual stocks are going to move, so it’s part of our weekend process.

The major averages finished mixed and little-changed last week as they primarily moved sideways to further digest some of the recent run. We’re dealing with several key levels at the moment, and despite having the technical edge, the bulls have struggled to produce an acceleration of the uptrends.

The major averages moved mostly sideways last week with the big 3 posting only small gains as stocks rested near key levels. Each of them were able to mark new intraday recovery highs, but the strength didn’t inspire more buying and instead the market simply based overall.

Video Review of the Indexes 2-20-2012
February 18, 2012 at 10:00 am
The market eased higher last week, shunning a Wednesday reversal which had potential to shift the landscape. However, a Thursday lift made the mid-week pullback ancient history, reminding us once again that the dip-buyers are operating in a highly aggressive fashion.
The market remains stretched here, no doubt about it, but the long side is still the side which is offering the opportunity. Until a character change comes along, you’re either long or you’re wrong. Selectivity is the key for new plays, which I’ve been noting within the member area.

Video Review of the Indexes 2-12-2012

The market lost ground last week thanks to Friday’s pullback, but that only resulted in a 2-point S&P decline for the week. That translated into some healthy basing action which also allowed the NAZ to move back to the middle of its 8-week uptrend channel.
The NAZ tagged 11-year highs yet again, reminding us that buy-and-hold remains broken anytime people who bought in 2001 have to wait 11 years to get their money back. It’s a trader’s market right now, and it’s highly important to continue managing risk in what remains a stretched market. Selectivity is the key for new plays, which I’ve been noting within the member area.

Video Review of the Indexes 2-5-2012

Following some healthy basing action in the previous week, we saw stocks head higher once again last week, continuing the 7-week uptrends.
The NAZ tagged 11-year highs, while the other indexes approached key levels from 2011. All news is good news these days, and it seems stocks may never decline again. Careful though – be sure to manage risk accordingly on new positions after a run of this magnitude. Could be that the first pullback is a good one with so many looking to lock in profits at some point.

Video Review of the Indexes 1-29-2012

Last week the senior indexes put in some much-needed rest with the news flow prompting a bit of a pause in the action. Big-name earnings reports, the State of the Union address, and an FOMC meeting all left traders unwilling to press the upside for the most part, allowing the market the opportunity for some healthy basing.
