Good Energy, Bad Energy
Although crude oil may still be bottoming here, it sure is a sloppy process and USO chart, second below on the daily timeframe for the crude ETF. You can see the weakness today, even though as I write this some latecomer shorts may be getting squeezed. Still, I am more inclined to return to natural gas as a long, which you can see on the first...

The Protective Gear is Back On
Ebola protective play/hazmat plays APT and LAKE are running today, with APT looking more actionable intraday. Intraday traders can look at them as day-trade long ideas, while I am considering swinging them if the action stays firm today. Elsewhere, my FB short is underwater about 2% and I may cut it, barring a fade today. My official stop is...

Late Night Strategy for Tuesday
With casual dining/fast food plays hot on Monday, RRGB is still on my radar as a short squeeze/low float long idea on any further strength. The first daily chart, below, shows a tight price consolidation after the stock's sharp rally off the October lows. And on the short side, if the market experiences some weakness I would consider NetSuite...

Staged Holiday Trading
Today was pretty much scripted holiday trading, in terms of drifting indices with a bullish bent in the small and micro-cap stocks. I mentioned DGLY over the weekend as one of the better recent-IPO long setups at this juncture. And you can see on the weekly chart, below, there is potential for a breakout higher from consolidation. If the...

Big Blue Still Stuck in the Blue Grotto
With rumors of Carl Icahn being involved in IBM dispelled this afternoon , "Big Blue" is still mired in a technically-damged chart. The daily timeframe, below, shows price fading today back below its 20-day simple moving average, a source of resistance since the stocks's earnings gap lower last month. Should IBM loses $160, I view this as an...

Sunday Brunch Charts
CREE NILE are still short squeeze ideas on the long side if we see a holiday rally this year, on the first two daily charts below, respectively. And NFLX remains suspiciously weak, still a short idea. More ideas and strategy on the Weekend Market Film Session, out later today.

Feast Mode
With casual dining and fast food plays like BKW SONC, even BLMN, moving higher today, other plays in the space which are long setups into further strength are the technically properly-setup FRGI TXRH, seen along with SONC on the daily charts, below. Casual dining/fast food plays have been selectively impressive for a while now. And that...

That's the Discipline
Even though I am still inclined to be a natural gas bull into the winter months, the sharp sell-off in recent sessions is a good reminder to always place discipline first in trading. Recall that I sold my UGAZ long into strength last week, as the UNG ETF (UNG is the straight-up natural gas ETF, UGAZ is the triple-levered long one) rallied...

Potential for CREE-mation
I mentioned CREE last week and over the weekend as a beaten-down short squeeze idea into the holidays. Updating the daily chart, below, I will reiterate that thesis with the stock acting reasonably well this morning. This one has been left for dead and is not particularly well-liked at the moment. But you can see the highlighted bottoming...
