The Fed Up Rally Takes Price Back to Almost All-Time Highs Of couse I am using a play on words as this Fed Up Trump Rally is hated and despised by most and defies the logic of investing in general. I mean, c'mon it has been since last October - almost a half of a

Technical Analysis of the S&P 500's current stock trend remains in tact That doesn't necessarily mean that all the stocks out there are holding it together because most of them are not. But the large caps, the ones that really drive the market's direction, like Apple (AAPL) for instance, is still holding it together and

Stock TA Diverging Hard from Market Price Action The price action is dull in the overall market, and while the price  on the indices still hovers at the all-time highs, the TA of stocks (technical analysis) continues to falter under the surface. Breadth is dismal, and without a catalyst to continue pushing the market higher

A lethargic S&P 500 Index Chart The S&P 500 Index chart (SPX) is holding true to the rising trend-line and is holding the 20-day moving average as well. The FOMC is also upon us. This is the week that they are likely to raise rates, and if you remember, I've been saying for a couple of

If it holds tomorrow,

My Trading Journal for the Stock Market Today:  SPX did what it does best following a morning sell-off, and that is, to buy the freakin’ dip. (‘BTFD’ for those looking to add another acronym to their life). Support that I marked in the chart below on yesterday’s trading plan identified this as a potential bounce area.

My Trading Journal for the Stock Market Today:  I'm pretty sure we are at that point where, "how many days can the Dow push higher", has become irrelevant. Lets just admit it, we are in the Phantom Zone at this point. We can decline 1% today is probably less likely than us running higher for another

My Trading Journal for the Stock Market Today:  Higher, higher, and higher. I mean, whats to say the Dow doesn't keep this going to infinity and beyond, to borrow from Buzz Lightyear.
