My Swing Trading Approach
Strength in the pre-market, will look to add another position to the portfolio today.
Indicators
VIX – Traded, surprisingly, higher for a 4th consecutive day. Expect it to get squashed today.
T2108 (% of stocks trading below their 40-day moving average): Down nine of the last ten tradning sessions. Here is my write up from yesterday about it.
Moving averages (SPX): Failed in the last five minutes to recapture the 10-day moving average, and still below the 5-day as well.

Industries to Watch Today
