Every four years a simple time frame defined by the date of the presidential election creates an Election Range in most markets, ETFs, sectors and individual stocks. This Election Range defines inflection points that enable you to anticipate when the market will trend higher or lower in a meaningful way. Anticipating which direction the market will move is simple, and very powerful for identifying big trend trades. Below you’ll find an instructional video explaining the

This week, another sporting event, The Masters, invokes the steep tradition many avid fans anxiously await. Many golfer friends are glued to the TV Saturday and Sunday on Master's weekend. I am not a golfer, but the true talent that we see each year is a testament to practice, training, coaching, and hard work. Like trading, golf is an individual sport, and the victor in each must wrestle with their emotional state of being. It

Written by Forrest Monday the Economic Modern Family which consists of 1 index and 5 key sectors showed mixed signals as half of the Family closed down for the day. Currently, the Russell 2000 (IWM), Biotech (IBB) and Semiconductors (SMH) are down with Transportation (IYT), Retail (XRT), and Regional Banks (KRE) up on the day. With SMH lingering in all-time high territory, IWM and IBB are the most worrisome of the bunch, as both sit

When a leading market sector sells off hard, traders should take note to avoid getting surprised by a broader market sell-off. Even better than simply noticing an important sector reversing, would be to be to anticipate the move in time to avoid it or profit from it.On Monday, the Semiconductor ETF (SMH), a recent market leader, was one of the hardest hit sectors in the market’s decline. In this post you’ll discover how you could

Written by Forrest Last week’s focus was the Russel 2000 (IWM), Transportation ETF (IYT), and Semiconductors ETF (SMH). IWM has shown us general market direction and sentiment as it contains 2000 small cap U.S companies. IYT is the backbone or demand side of the economy as the U.S opens with the increasing vaccine deployment. Then comes SMH, which has been involved in this year’s tech boom, but also in one of this year’s biggest supply

Active investors and traders can learn a lesson or two from watching baseball, and... This week on April 1, all 30 Major League Baseball (MLB) teams will begin their 2021 season and hopefully survive a full schedule of 162 games plus playoffs ending close to November 2021. In both baseball and trading… One way to win more often is to have an edge (a real statistical advantage) and play your game with strategies and tactics

Written by Forrest The FOMC Minutes report released Wednesday stated little to no change. Rates will stay low until 2023 and the monthly $120-Billion bond buying program will stay in place. The Fed has been hesitant to change any fiscal policy as it has been very attentive to the economic recovery. However, this has worried some investors that believe hefty spending will increase inflation. Currently, the inflation rate is set to rise to around 2%

When the market sells off these stocks lead to trades that yield quick returns and then massive swing trades. It happens without fail because this is how the market works. When the market sells off, weak stocks get hit and many never come back. At the same time, the stocks that the big institutions like hold up, or sell off in a smaller degree. Many of these stocks become the leaders of the next market

After a two-year, COVID-19 induced hiatus… This week I was reminded of the excitement of the return this weekend of March Madness (NCAA men’s basketball tournament). My colleague’s description of the March Madness betting expectations sounded like the same stories I hear about the market’s upside projections, like Tesla’s continuous volatile climb this past year or the re-opening of society. I shouldn’t have been surprised. This is MARCH MADNESS, and this weekend, 64 college men’s

Written by Forrest Monday, we talked about the momentum in the Transportation (IYT) and Semiconductors (SMH) sectors, which showed strength when compared to the Russell 2000 (IWM). Tuesday, IYT closed near Monday’s low making it a potential bearish engulfing day. Meanwhile, SMH failed to clear resistance at $258.59. Additionally, because IWM (as mentioned on Monday) has weak momentum, the market might need more convincing to move upward. This is where the infrastructure plan could help

This week the cover story in Barron’s analyzed and opined about a specific subset of the hot marijuana industry. As a result, I’ve found a few stocks you may want to keep your eye on for big trend trades. Here’s how I found them. One of my favorite ways of finding ideas for big trend trades is to let someone else do the fundamental research, and for 30- years Barron’s has been one of the
