Apple's Elephant Rally
AAPL's rally of late may very well be a microcosm for what we have seen in general since February, albeit at a much slower place. On the daily chart, below, Apple made it back to $105, a prior level of significance, before shooting up and then reversing off today's event. Still, you can see the overall technical damage has not yet been healed,...

The Missing Link to Solve This Case
After a slow morning, the indices are drifting while biotechnology benefits from a rotation down. Commodities are largely in digestion mode, save sugar remarkable rally continuing--We have our eyes on corn, too. And are stalking this consolidation in coffee closely.

Underwater Green
Valeant is looking to punish some overly-ambitious shorts this morning, with VRX up nearly 15% as I write this in a flattish broad market trading session, thus far. On the 30-minute chart, below, note that price is back up to what should be an initial difficult level. Above $31.50 today, and I suspect we could see a continuation of a squeeze....

Sunday Matinée at Market Chess Cinemas
Nearly twenty-five years later, I can vividly remember sitting in a theater being mesmerized by the cinematography in the film, A River Runs Through It (1992). Based on the true story of Norman Maclean’s life in Missoula, Montana, Robert Redford directs a gripping period piece about fly fishing and the different paths that two brothers take...

Leave the Gun. Take the Steak
Bulls continue to defy top-callers as we work through the late-afternoon portion of today's session. I am mostly looking to stay out of trouble on the short side, for now, until I see some more meaningful signs of buyers losing their grip on the action. While some sectors like regional banks are well off session highs, biotech has staged a...

This Bear Claw Recipe Calls for Bittersweet Chips
The vertical rally in the semiconductors is suddenly closing in on a major resistance trendline dating back to last Memorial Day, when the chips seemed unstoppable. As we know, however, that proved to be anything but the case, as the semis topped out and trapped a plethora of longs near $60, on the SMH sector ETF. Since then, the semis...

Drone Surveillance on Amazon
Amid another morning where the indices are resilient and pushing higher yet, the action below the surface is still a bit sluggish. TSLA, as we observed yesterday, is now up to major resistance trend dating back to last summer with the latest squeeze this morning, making it tough to do much of anything at the moment while we see if the steep...

A Tactical Maneuver
As we wind down the session on a day when many market players are likely busy with basketball or St. Patrick's Day, or both, commodities have notably outperformed again. We are seeing a bit of a reversal down in the gold miners, though, we saw me taking some profits inside Market Chess Subscription Services. However, the financials are waking...
