Last weekend, I said,“The market is fighting to make this recovery stick. Nasdaq tested its daily upper BB last week and its 10-day MA has gone above the 30-day MA. The 20-day MA has turned up. SPX, on the other hand, is seeing the 10-day MA above the 20-day MA, but, was […]
The market was volatile last week and ended flat. The Dow ended the week down 44.37 points; SPX added +2.55 points; Nasdaq gained just +0.43 points. Since the market was swinging from side to side very fast and was range-bound, we did not make too many trades.
However, once again, we ended […]
Last week, the market was able to rally above the daily MAs before seeing a sharp, profit-taking session on Thursday. On Friday, the market was able to poise itself with minor gains and the techs leading.
SPX

SPX
SPX added +0.36 points to close at 1260.68. It closed above its 10-day MA. The 10-day MA flattened. The […]

GLDHK, Aug 89 calls, at $7, +59%
MER ($28.6)
MERSF, July 30 puts, at $2.9, -4.9%
SVNT ($27.37)
UVPGE, July […]
During the short week before the 4th of July, the market took a big loss on Wednesday, and that was enough to keep the market in the red, although the market tried to gain some grounds on Thursday. The Dow finished the week down 57.97 points; SPX lost 15.48 points; Nasdaq tumbled 70.25 points. […]
Last weekend, I said,
“Both indices are now in their bearish phase. SPX is on its daily lower BB and could test 1300 from here. Although Nasdaq was able to hold 2400, it may have some downward momentum on it’s side still. Below 2400, Nasdaq has a stronger support at 2350. VIX tested 23 on Friday, […]
