Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas
Easily one of the best detective story ever written, and adapted from the novel, The Maltese Falcon (1941) has it all. Writer/Director John Huston (a brilliant actor in his own right) sets the stage for Humphrey Bogart to take on all comers in the search for a priceless statue. A memorable performance by Peter Lorre seals the deal as this...

I Can Beat My Burrito at Chess; Chess Moves
I went short CMG at $660.16 with a cover-stop over $680. This position equates to roughly 4% of my portfolio capital. On the weekly chart, below, CMG looks to be struggling in the midpoint of its long-running rising channel (light blue line). On shorter-term timeframes, the stock has been a base breakdown candidate for a while, which I have...

Going Solo on This One; Chess Moves
First off, I just sold a piece of my SRS long at $12.63 here from $12.03 posted earlier this week to scale some gains.

Next, I went short FB at $80.19 with a cover-stop over $83, a contrarian play and looking to swing it. FB...

Apple Adding Some Sweetness to the Dow
But will all that sweetness cause Dow diabetes? The timing of AAPL being added to the Dow Jones Industrial Average, replacing AT&T, sure does smack of something you are more likely to see in the late innings of a bull market rather than in a bear market or in the "wall of worry" phase of a young-to-middle-aged bull. On a standalone basis, the...

Has Mr. Rothstein Even Applied for a Gaming License? Chess Moves
I just went short LVS at $55.34 with a cover-stop over $58.70, looking to swing it for another leg down in its current weekly downtrend. This position equates to roughly 4% of my trading portfolio capital. LVS is a name I have profiled many times over the past year or so as consistently being an actionable short idea. Long-time readers will...

Presenting King Dollar Like Royalty
George Washington is said to have been a man of great humility, opting to be referred to simply as "Mr. President" instead of some royal name. Still, the performance of "King Dollar" of late renders the greenback worthy of high praise, indeed. On the updated UUP ETF weekly chart, below, that textbook "bull flag" consolidation I discussed last...

Treat Your Positions as They Treat You; Chess Moves
In the markets, just as in life, it is often best to develop a certain disdain for things and people which do not treat you well--Ignoring them is the best revenge, rather than trying to placate them or stoop down to play on their childish level.

Staying Tactical Against General Winter
Into the closing bell, I am tempted to put on another UGAZ long, with UNG holding over $14.40. However, on this wintry, grinding day I am going to avoid over-trading and err on the side of patience. If there is one thing history teaches us, it is to not try to force a battle against General Winter (just ask Napoleon and Hitler). My current...
