I love this chart …
Posted on February 15, 2014 1 Comment
the WX in Northern Virginia today is just down right ugly … snow, winter mix, wind has picked up. Have been doing posts, checking on the wife w/ a herniated disk and the 9 year old w/ a sinus infection and then playing Pink Floyd looking for patterns. As I was going thru the charts […]

AAPL and GOOG patterns completing … well, I guess we’ll see … if you go to the link above you’ll see the work that has been done on AAPL. And, while the AAPL work has called EVERY swing low and swing high – GOOG has kicked our butt. Patterns work and Patterns fail …but they are […]

Around the world update … the link above is where you’ll find our around the world cruises since August. this post is an update …what do we see? nothing has changed, significantly. none of the international indices have made new highs like the US equity markets … patterns have provided resistance, BUT not necessarily overt sell […]

Early in my career I had the wonderful opportunity to get training from Joe Di Napoli (www.fibnodes.com) Highly recommend learning some of his techniques but, most importantly, his understanding of the market structure and the players in the game. One of his favorite sayings is we must realize that “you are entering into a […]

I really DO NOT KNOW or have a BIG OPINION on the top at 1920 on spot Gold. Well, it was either a BIG 3 or BIG 5 but I just don’t know … doesn’t change the fact that a long on Gold could be coming in soon. It’s just how high it will go […]

Understanding Fractals and the Current Market Environment ..
Posted on February 6, 2014 Leave a Comment
I promise this isn’t going to be a mathematical treatise on the math/geometry behind fractals. We’re going to go down the rabbit hole, slightly, in order to 1) get an understanding of what a fractal is and then 2) relate the current market environment using the Down Jones Transports. We could use more, but that […]
Utilities as a safe play … not yet!
Posted on February 3, 2014 1 Comment
there has been speculation that Utilities are a safe play in a deflationary environment. I don’t know what the fundamentals say, but I do believe we are starting another wave down in the Utilities. After a very clear 5 waves down into the low of 2009, they have behaved much like everything and bounced rather […]
going thru the heavy weights that make up the S&P …
Posted on February 2, 2014 Leave a Comment
in Mid-December 2013 we went thru the top weighted (by percentage) sectors in the S&P after the most re-weighting … at the time, most of them were either finishing or approaching or hitting sell patterns. As of this writing, the patterns have held w/ no significant failures or break-outs. this is bearish … only time […]
