The markets are at all-time highs or a stone's throw away from all-time highs, but underlying breadth is not what you expect it to be, with indices at highs. This reminded me of August 2015 when the SP500 was at highs, but most individual names were in the gutter. At the time, the bloggers were pointing out how the SP500 A-D line was at highs, and everything was fine.

What a week! GameStop has caused a stir on Wall Street, Main Street, and Capitol Hill. There's not one person, child, or animal that has not talked about GameStop this week. What's happened has been truly remarkable because of the speed of information, social media, influencers, and the hyperventilated reporting that goes on nowadays.  If you don't shoot first and ask questions later, you are not reporting the right way. If you allow the truth to get in the way of a narrative or a good story, then you are doing it all wrong. We have wolves dressed as sheep [...]

$LPI, $AAL, $CCL, $WMC, $CRON $BCOR are six stocks that are trying to emerge from bases. I’m always intrigued by bases; typically, a prolonged period of contraction leads to an extended EXPANSION period. We have covered bases extensively here on the blog, and they are one of my favorite set-ups. The last post that I wrote about bases was back in September, and those stocks have done really well; see for yourself; Six Bases Worth Keeping An Eye On Stan Weinstein, the author of Secrets For Profiting In Bull And Bear Markets, has a great definition of the “basing area,” specifically [...]

$DECK, $MDB, $UA, $CDNA, $DT, $OKTA are six stocks that are trying to emerge from bases. I’m always intrigued by bases, typically, a prolonged period of contraction leads to an extended period of expansion. We have covered bases extensively here (SEE BELOW) on the blog, and they are one of my favorite set-ups. Stan Weinstein, the author of Secrets For Profiting In Bull And Bear Markets, has a great definition of the “basing area,” specifically the ones that are formed after several down months. The Basing Area: “After XYZ has been declining for several months, it eventually will lose downside momentum [...]

When it comes to exits you are always going to feel some type of remorse, you sold to soon, you should've sold all the shares earlier, etc. What you need is clarity; are you a trader or an investor. What are you looking to accomplish with your trading?     To keep the selling remorse to a minimal level, I suggest clarity, and I suggest diversifying your sales; sell some on the way up, trail a piece 2x ATR, sell some when it breaks the 10-day, sell some when it violates the 20-day, etc. But be consistent with this approach, [...]
