Opening Gaps Jump Up to Get Beat Down

When it comes to markets which are pulling back, be it a deeper correction or simply a mild dip (the current market fall into either category at this point despite the sizable drop on the indices yesterday), it is often said that opening gaps higher are faded the majority of the time. And as I write this, we are seeing just that: A...

Stay Enterprising During Times of Grave Danger

An afternoon downside reversal in the gold miners may very well signal a respite in the selloff in the broad market. Either way, as far as trading the precious miners, themselves, I am welcoming a brief reset to set up another long entry in the improving sector.

Undetected Magical Growth

Amid the rather prominent, daily short squeezes in the likes of SPCE and TSLA, not to mention CVNA, it is worth noting the continued strength in the biotechnology and healthcare space. ONEM was a recent IPO we discussed yesterday. But there are plenty more names seemingly flying well under the radar of most traders. Below, you will find two...

One Life: Let's Get Together and Feel Alright

Simply put, as a bull market matures, goofy things tend to happen. Headlines, earnings, and general news flow which seemingly ought to derail the bull actually empowers it.
