I need to set the record straight. Two previous stocks I mentioned here at BestOnlineTrades, TA Travel Centers of America and NCT NewCastle Investment Corp were originally identifed by a man named Stephen R Stewart. I forget how I found his chart list but you can see his listing of charts over at his public … Read more
I continue to believe that it is a mistake to even THINK of going short until we start to see some early signs of a bearish weekly MACD downward cross. At least up until last Friday, the weekly MACD has not moved into such a stance yet. It is going to take price closings on … Read more
Today was one of those days that I would have thought had the potential to be really bearish. The GE and Bank of America ‘bad news’ really should have been the bears chance to take the DJIA down 200 to 250 points and close at the lows. But once again the bears failed to do … Read more
The US Dollar Index keeps drifting downward as if it is on some sort of mission. Clearly this has helped the broad market keep going UP as well as gold. The popular story line on the US Dollar Index right now is that sentiment wise there are too many bears and hardly any bulls. From … Read more

I mentioned about how I was going to start looking for short candidates and focus mainly on the short side of the market and not even consider the … Read more
Today the SP500 index climbed right back up to the short term bearish channel line as defined by the red line in the chart to the left. The market also pulled back right up to the light blue line which represents the shorter term wedge which was broken to the downside several days ago with … Read more
The gold price as represented by the GLD ETF is flashing a huge warning signal right now and is in a stance that suggests it wants to get a MASSIVE upside breakout during the next 10 trading days. If I am correct then the ideal exit point for any precious metal related trades could be … Read more
The action today in the broad market was a little bit confusing. It was clear after a few hours of trading that the market already knew what the news was going to be today and that is probably why we did not see 200 or 300 points down on the DJIA. It was just an … Read more
