Below is a video that was made back in September in 2019. I go over some of the most compelling reasons why you should own the index ETF's as core holdings, especially after a market is down -15% or more.     You can find stocks before the breakout here (managed assets) https://bit.ly/2FFqa6q or DIY at the trading room https://bit.ly/2TgOJi1 You can view over 100 shared trades including all the ones from last week here https://bit.ly/2umUIYG    

As always, I have an interest in the best-performing stocks within my daily swing timeframe, which is 0-10 days. Within that timeframe, the best-performing stocks have been the ones near 52-week lows; this has been consistent every week since the 3/23 initial bottom. You can call it a dash for trash, dead cat bounce plays, etc. But this action is consistent with what typically happens in bear market dead cat bounces, the stocks hit the hardest, bounce the hardest. Regardless of your beliefs, this is a fact, and in case you were wondering, the gains are worth the same as [...]

So this morning, I tried doing a live Zoom Meeting, and it did not work out so well. Over the last week I've been reading about all the zoom bombing going on, and today I had a chance to experience it, it wasn't pretty. However, I did a private meeting with a few people, it went great, and I uploaded it to YouTube. We covered a lot of ground, and I'm sure you will find some useful information. Here are some of the things we covered; The market. Swing Trades P&L equity line. Scans. Timeframes. Targets. Trend Following 2.0 Set-ups. [...]

This week was all about going against conventional wisdom. The week's best-performing stocks were the ones that were down the most up, which is typical action in almost every initial bounce after a severe correction. You can clearly see that in the best-performing stocks this past week in the Russell 3000, take a look at the weekly change and their one and three-month change. It's very simple; FIFO- first in, first out. HHHB--hardest hit, hardest bounce.  Short-term speculators should go to what is working now or what works best during the current market environment and not what conventional wisdom says. [...]

The market rout continued this week; the S&P 500 lost -14.98%, it's now down -31.67% in the last month and -28.66% year to date. $VIX +371% YTD, $TLT +17.68% YTD, $QQQ -19.71% YTD -28% FROM 52-WEEK HIGH, $SPX -28.66% YTD -32.08% FROM ITS 52-WEEK HIGH, effectively wiping out last years gains. Volatility continues, the 10-day average true range for the $SPY is $21.36, that's a 9.3% daily range, unprecedented volatility. FAANG as unit is down -22% from its 2/19/2020 high ($FB, $AAPL $AMZN $NFLX $GOOGL). Six $QQQ names are positive this year; $REGN $GILD $CTXS $JD $NFLX and $TSLA, which [...]

If you been following me for a while, you would know that when the market is under stress and going through a severe correction, I tend to get more active on social media, providing information that can help people navigate through the crisis. I'm not out there fear-mongering, mocking, or tooting my own horn, and like me, many continuously provide useful information and are genuinely trying to help people during stressful times. Follow me on Twitter for live updates.  I'm going to share some of their tweets here, and then we will dive into some of the extreme breadth data [...]

What a sell-off, the financial media said that this was the worst week since the great financial crisis, the S&P 500 was down -11.4%, at lows of Friday is was down as much as -14%. Underneath the surface, breadth was as bad as it was back in December 2018 when the S&P 500 was down -20%. But before we jump into the data here are a few things we should know; "The psychology of the investing public changes---cycling from the most blissed-out euphoria abut equities to the most abject terror and then back again, always at the wrong times." Almost [...]

By studying the year to date biggest winners, you can learn a lot about what works, what doesn't work, what is true, what is false, and more importantly, you can build scans based on the shared commonalities that winners have to find future winners.
