It was a great day for the bulls, but how long will it last? Are we witnessing the intermediate-term bounce or is this just another short-term bounce off of oversold levels. My gut tells me ... (more)

The decline today pushed the major benchmarks (DIA & SPY) back in a short-term oversold state. It also helped to push the consumer discretionary (XLY), financial (XLF), and retail (RTH) further in a short-term oversold ... (more)

The headline says it all. I expected to see the short-term bounce, but did not want to step in due to the increased probability of a capitulation event. The gains would have certainly been nice for the two Extremes ... (more)

Only four out of the fourteen ETFs that I follow for the strategies currently reside in a short-term neutral state. That leaves ten ETFs in a short-term oversold to very oversold state with several officially ... (more)

I had my seventh trade in as many months in the QQQQ Gap Fade options strategy today. The significant gap lower at the open triggered a signal in the strategy (lower than Monday’s low). It ... (more)

First, I would like to point out that one of the two gaps in the tech-heavy NASDAQ 100 (QQQQ) closed today. The gap from 4/18 closed and now the gap from 4/16 will most likely ... (more)

The major benchmarks are still an oversold to near oversold state. Unfortunately, I need to see the underlying ETFs push lower into a short-term very oversold state before I will take a position. There are also ... (more)

The NASDAQ 100 (QQQQ) opened lower today for a gap lower. However, the gap was only $.221, which in most cases is a borderline signal. Had QQQQ been in a short-term oversold state a signal ... (more)
