Whenever I find two stocks acting well I always want to buy the best but, how to know this? Both are forming a shark pattern in the weekly chart, and both are from the same industry, semiconductors. So how to choose? For me, a simple ratio will do it. It will show which one is outperforming the other. In this case NYSE:STM is being buyed more aggressively...
Immunocore Holdings is a commercial-stage T cell receptor biotechnology company working to develop and commercialize transformative medicines for oncology, infectious diseases and autoimmune and inflammation diseases. In a confirmed uptrend, yesterday signaled a good pivot buy where I placed an initial position. I liked the volatility contraction pattern and...
NASDAQ:IBKR may be one of the leaders of this sector. Back in February of 2022, the relative strength ration with AMEX:XLF showed a bullish divergence against the stock's price; soon after, the stock bottomed and since has rallied +50%. The $80 level is key and the price has formed a shark pattern near it. As the stock is in an uptrend, I'll wait for the...
Metals have been performing pretty good, AMEX:DBB is up +21% in the last 6 months and above its 200-day MA The copper ETF, AMEX:CPER is up +12% in the last month and breaking out from resistance. Could AMEX:SLV follow up? and after silver could AMEX:IAU ? I'll wait for the breakout above $22.50 with target at $26.
Who else is waiting for this breakout to happen? If it does, a good target would be $125 and I like the odds. Just look at NYSE:SLB , NYSE:RIG & NYSE:HAL , they have already broke out from there bases. Look for other stocks within this ETF and you will find good set ups. I'm doing it. NYSE:WHD & NYSE:NOV are near pivot points.
Since late 2021 NASDAQ:MEDP is being forming a head & shoulders base with pivot buy above $230. This is the beahvior of a potential leader. It shows when comparing it against the AMEX:IWO as is still in a downtrend. The play for me would be to buy 1/2 or 1/3 of a position just above yesterday's high with a STOP-LOSS below $196. And then add at the $230...
According to TA rules, the ratio has completed the pattern with a Complex Right Shoulder (two peaks). Those these means that the SP:SPX should breakout from that downward trendline? I don't know, but probably. Or those it means that energy stocks should finally follow oil prices? Maybe, it is what normally had happend. What I'm seeing is more stocks going up,...
I don't know if I even have to explain this chart. Is just too easy to see. The number of SP:SPX stocks above its 200-day MA confirmes a bear market when crosses below 50, and confirms a bull market when crosses above the same level and stays there. It has happened for the last 3 bear markets. Also, is good to point out that is better to use it for bottoms...
Or tighten stops. At least that is what I did with NYSE:DINO and it looks like I was right. This stock was one of the first #oil stocks to breakout to new highs after the June correction, that's why I bought it. Now it seems like is also the first to break below support levels. I´ll be watching the other #oil stocks. Always manage risk! Never average down!
NASDAQ:PODD & NASDAQ:DXCM are leading the sectors recovery. Both are in the Medical Products Industry for diabetes. Insulent (PODD) normally outperforms DexCom (DXCM) during and after a correction. Then, when they are in sustained uptrends, DXCM outperforms. For the recent correction, PODD has a -45% deep base while DXCM has a -58%. PODD bottmed 4 weeks...
Hi again, I see that you are back near buy point. I'll buy if the price breaks above this range at $31.50 and add more once breaks to a new all time high at $34. The stock highly volatile, so I suggest starting with small positions and/or staggered stops.
A good leading indicator is comparing the Russel 2000 against the S&P 500. For the last 6 years, every time the market bottoms its been with small cap stocks outperforming the general market. And RUSSELL:RUT has been outperforming the SP:SPX since January Just another thing to keep an eye on.
NYSE:PSTG in the data storage industry breaking out from a fisrt base after it bottom. NASDAQ:SPSC in the computer software industry, specifically in supply chain solutions, breaking out from a fisrt base after the bottom. Both are 1st in their IBD Industry Rank. PSTG made a cup that could fuel a good move, and SPSC has its next resistance +25% away. Which...
These 3 stocks look like leaders, and all are making the same patter. The play is simple, wait for a throwback from the gap and then buy the close above the high. The thing is that as they are all real moovers, I'd try staggering stops. Is the best way I know to manage risk in stocks with hihg volatility. NASDAQ:WING is the first to breakout but with a doji...
Constellation Energy provides power, natural gas, renewable energy, and energy management products and services. They are the largest producer of carbon-free and low-emissions energy in the US. NASDAQ:CEG is in a clear uptrend with great relative strength against its benchmarks. Just look at AMEX:XLE and NASDAQ:QCLN . NASDAQ:CEG is clearly leading. I see...
Bitcoin and Ethereum are ones of the assets that haven't undercut its June lows. In the daily chart of Bitcoin is above its 50-day MA and I see a pivot buy at $21,350. But, when I zoom in at the 4-hour chart, I can see a good volatility contraction with a pivot buy at $20,700. Remeber that crypto never closes so 4-hour charts is the equivalent of a daily chart...
Adtalem Global Education is a leading healthcare educator that partners with organizations to address workforce needs and empower career development across the medical and healthcare industries. I've been watching this stock for a while and finally is signaling an actionable pivot buy. Price is close to its 50-day MA which can act as a good support level. I'd...
Doubleverify Hldgs Inc help brands improve the effectiveness of their online advertising. I bought half a position and so far the price hasn't under cut its support at $25, just were my stop is. For me this is a really good sign, considering what the SP:SPX is doing. The bad thing is that the OBV and ROC is signaling a bearish divergence. If I had full...
