The Last Good Stand: Precious Metals and Miners
The breakout in silver this morning, highlighted on the daily chart ETF below, is just what the doctor ordered for gold bugs given the weak action following last Friday's jobs number. When we see the chart from a broad perspective, note that this recent low likely marks the last stand for bulls to try to enforce a major bottoming formation,...

More Vision to the Situation
I posted the following chart of Treasuries on Stocktwits last night, the daily timeframe for the TLT ETF. The chart seemed to garner much interest, as the bond market appears to be at some critical juncture. The main issue on this rising wedge breakdown is whether it would be another routine pullback in an otherwise ferocious bull market,...

Patience in the Casino
After closing out the big UGAZ win yesterday, I do not need to force myself to chase equities higher today. I have been largely busy this afternoon organizing plans for the Market Chess Subscription Services, currently being designed. The hot names in the tape have gapped higher today, consistent with this market, such as CYBR, making it tough...

The Big Apple
Apple continues to be a huge weight in the Nasdaq and derivative ETFs and, accordingly, has helped the Nazzy perform well of late given the stock's near-parabolic move. On the daily chart, below, we can see the stock now touching its upper Bollinger Band, indicative of temporary overbought conditions. If this is, truly, the beginning of a...

Sneaky Sexy Strength in the Firearms Makers
Although they have earnings coming up in the next few weeks, it is still worth noting the quiet strength in firearms makers RGR and SWHC of late. Both of them had been fair money for a while, not doing much of anything. But, observing both respective daily charts, below, we can see both have been trying to carve out tight, technical sideways...

Follow-Up on Tesla
With the earnings sell-off for TSLA, the major topping pattern remains very much in play. We looked at chart yesterday, as a cockeyed head and shoulders formation. And updating it today, it looks as though the $200 area is of course of psychological important. But it also may be technically key, too. The sheer size of the pattern projects a...

Be the Predator, Not the Prey
One of the reasons I have been so quick to trim winners into strength and to abandon losers in this market is the amount of whipsaws we have seen, with gaps in both directions across all markets and head-fakes galore. With this in mind, I sold the rest of my UGAZ long yesterday to lock in a big, 20%-plus win in two days. After the gap down...

Here's to Your Health!
It looks as though the multi-year bull run in the likes of HAIN may have some more organic juice to it, especially over $59.50. On the daily chart, below, note the bull flag pattern I have highlighted which indicate buyers remain largely in control even after a prior move higher. I still believe HAIN to be a viable takeover target in the...

An Interesting Duo
Off of the COST news this morning, which obviously is not favorable to AXP, the stock is continuing on lower from the major topping pattern we have been observing for a while now. If you think it is is a coincidence that the stock had been weak for a while in front of such apparently surprising news, then I would remind you that technicals...
