CSCO Daily Chart

nothing actionable right here right now, but very important to watch either for a breakout or for a mean reversion (lower) trade setup…

Morning Thoughts November 14

As we look at the markets this morning Mr. Monti is the new PM in Italy, Merkel is issuing all sorts of new urgency on the bailout plans, yet stocks and bonds in Europe are trading lower. Last week was a serious chop-fest…although stocks traded higher four days out of five, it was Wednesday's trade […]

new bucket 2 short trade in WYNN

we are short WYNN as of late this afternoon for a bucket 2 trade.  the first target is at $128, the gap fill.  the final stop is at Friday's high.

BAC…starting to like from the long side…

Walgreen interesting above $34.80

monthly charts with bullish undertone

yes october will most likely have been the second best month on record…nice. with that it also left its mark on the montly charts…note the charts of the SPX and NDX below.  both recorded monthly outside bars.  that is bullish all else being equal.  not an actionable catalyst in and of itself however but something […]
