Happy  New  Year

"Cheers to a New Year and another chance for us to get it right"

By Oprah Winfrey (media executive)

Currently as of Friday Dec 28th, the leading Growth Stock Index  $QQQ  is  - 1.79%  year to date.  That's a far cry from the  + 31.36%  we experienced in 2017.  It would have been  - 8.39%  had we not had a surge of  + 6.60%  within the 2 days after the Christmas day.  It was a confirmed rally with trading volume almost twice the average daily volume.  Christmas week usually is a lighter volume week.  That's a good sign that the market may be righting itself after 8 weeks of stomach churning volatility in the market.  We had 2  "Follow Thru"  days - November 7th and November 28th that failed miserably.  The index was just not able to punch through the 200 day sma(simple moving average) and ended up plummeting below the 400 day sma.  We are not out of the woods yet.  We need for the institutions to continue to participate in the market like the way they did during the 2 days after Christmas day.  The index is still   8%  below the 50 day sma. 

Trade  Less  Trade Smart 

I picked up the above quote from the IBD(Investors Business Daily) publication of Dec 31st 2018.  Over the weekend I did some studies on the  $QQQ  in order to improve the results of my trading.  I came up with the system of just trading 6 times a year with  $QQQ  in 2018  stress free for a gain of  + 8.46%.  Its a system where you buy at open as soon as IBD declares a  "Follow Thru"  day.  The index has to be above the 50 day sma.  You get out as soon as it hits the 50 day sma.  Here are the details of those 6 trades.  I have indicated the entry and exit dates.  Profit or loss is in parenthesis.  You would have avoided the failed  "Follow Thru"  days of  Nov 7th  and  Nov 28th  since they were below the 50 day sma.

1. Jan 2nd - Feb 5th           (+1.04%)
2. Feb 14th - Mar 19th        (+ 1.80%)
3. April 11th - April 20th      (+ 2.68%)
4. May 4th - June 28th       (+ 2.34%)
5. July 9th - July 30th         (+ 0.66%)
6. August 7th - Sept 18th    (- 0.06%)

Beauty of this system is that you would be in the trade from 2 weeks to 8 weeks.  Its a passive system.  You mitigate the risk of earnings reversals that you get with the stocks.  Best of all ... YOU SLEEP PEACEFULLY

Merry  Christmas

This is the time of the year when we should give thanks for the abundance we have in our lives and share our times and joy with the people we love, admire, cherish and respect.  Sometimes we get busy with our lives in pursuit of our careers to create wealth and a healthy portfolio for our retirements.  All that is important.  However its not as important as the people in our daily lives that make our life easier and those that support and encourage us in our endeavors.  I am very appreciative of the carrier that delivers my local newspaper Tampa Bay Times along with IBD(Investors Business Daily) + Barrons magazine at 4 am in the rain and nasty weather, 2 lawn mowing guys that keep my yard clean and neat, the garbage man that never fails to pick up my garbage every week and the waiter that pours my coffee for me when I am at a restaurant.   

I would personally like to thank my followers that read my blog every week and share their comments with me.  It was a horrible week in the market last week with over  -8.4%  drop in the leading Growth Stock index  $QQQ.   I had received numerous phone calls, text messages and emails asking me for advice as to what to do with their stock holdings going forward.  I am not a financial advisor and everything I publish in my blogs and tweets that I post are for educational purposes only.  My blogs are very straight forward and I present data as it unfolds in the market.  One should have started scaling out of the market into  CASH  as of October 5th when the major indexes  $SPY  and  $QQQ   had plummeted down to the 50 day sma(simple moving average).  That is the system of investing that I have been teaching my students for the past several years.

Market  Outlook

My suggestion this week is for everyone to enjoy the holidays in which ever way that will bring joy to you and keep you healthy emotionally.  We are in the bear market right now.  Bear market of 2008,  $QQQ  had dropped by  -50%  from August to November (4 months).  We have already dropped  -21%  in the last 3 months.  Trading volume during the Christmas week tends to be light.  If you are already in  CASH  than just let the market come to you.  Eventually all this  "Distribution"  from heavy selling will cease.  We will have a  "Follow Thru"  day  and the resumption of the uptrend in the market.  Have patience.  This is not the time to be taking any position in the Growth Stocks.  There is a lot of technical damage done to most stocks.

In my talks to the local investors groups in my area and to the students that I mentor, I often say that that these severe corrections are the kind of markets we all ought to be looking for.  These severe corrections in the market resets the bases once they undercut the previous bases.  During the "Follow Thru"  days after such severe corrections, leading stocks rise very rapidly.  It's not unusual to make a quick  +20%  or more within a week to 3 weeks in the leading stocks.  Conserve your trading capital as well emotional capital now in order to benefit from the opportunities to profit handsomely in the market.  

Mentoring  Program

Leading Growth Stock index  $QQQ  attained a performance of  +32%  in 2017.  This year it was  +12.73%  in the first 8 months from January to August .    We gave all that up and went into negative bear market territory  -21%  within the last 10 weeks.   Are you getting frustrated that you have been left behind and not fully able to capture the market rally we had in the first 8 months of this year?  Did you give up all of the gains made this year and slid your portfolio into negative territory?  No one should allow themselves to be in this situation ever.  Learn to  TIME  the market for proper entry as well as exit.  It can be learnt.  It requires a commitment and a resolve on your part to make this change.      

Schedule a 30 minutes of  FREE  "Discovery Call"  with us.  I will try to get you on board if you are committed to learning our system to Out Perform the Market.


Happy Trading!

Take  a  Vacation

I took several days off this week and headed out to Disney Resorts for some fun and relaxation with the family.  I wasn't too concerned about the market.  It's not going to go gangbusters without me.  I had already migrated to CASH gradually as of October 5th.  That has been my consistent message for the last several weeks in my blog posts.  The only thing to do now is just prepare a good Stock Watch List and exercise it when the market conditions improve.

Market has been very ugly since October 5th.  That's is the day when the  $SPY(proxy for general market performance)  as well as the  $QQQ(proxy for growth stock performance)  sliced down the 50 day sma(moving average).  We have lost all the gains that we made this year and more.  Lessons learnt is to pay a very close attention to the 50 day sma and the  "Market Pulse"  that's mentioned by the IBD(Investors Business Daily).  The tone of the market had changed by October 10th when the IBD indicated the change in the  "Market Pulse"  to  "Market in Correction".  That's is a signal to tell the retail investors to start migrating to CASH  and preserve the portfolio from eroding any further.  At my IBD Meetup group on October 9th I had alerted to the members the seriousness of the train wreck we were facing.  By the following day, the  $SPY  as well as the  $QQQ  had both sliced down to the 200 day sma.  

Ouch!  Ouch!  Ouch!

Migrating to  CASH  gradually from October 5th to the 9th  would have allowed you to mitigate losses from the current loss of -13.5%  in  $QQQ  to only  -3%  from the all time highs achieved on Oct 1st.  This requires the discipline and following the IBD rules without questions asked.  Hoping and wishing for the market to come back is futile.  It erodes your portfolio and at worst it shakes up your confidence.  Erosion of your emotional capital does a real damage to your ego and it stunts you from making a commitment during a  "Follow Thru"  day.  The last 2  "Follow Thru"  days have fizzled but when they actually do materialize, you get some real huge winners within a week to 3 weeks.  Preserving capital is the key to spicing up your portfolio.  

Plan  of  Action

In the plains of Serengeti, you will find two male elephants fighting during the mating season.  You will hear all the grunts and clashing of tusks between the males.  After a fierce fight, some small trees will get knocked down and there will be a dust storm from all their macho shuffling.  Grass and other vegetation gets trampled on and destroyed.  That is exactly what is happening in the market right now with the hedge funds.  On any given day, the  $SPY and  $QQQ  will move  2%  from highs to the lows.  That sort of volatility will destroy your portfolio.  Its best to stay out of the harms way while the hedge funds that are the titans are slugging it out.  Retail investors will get trampled on in the current environment.  This is the time to just stay out of the market.  It is a good time to polish up on your trading skills and read some good books on investing and trading Growth Stocks.

CASH  is  King

"This year has seen a number of one - day meltdowns like Tuesday's. We strongly suspect that they were not driven by capitulating humans but engineered, literally, by computer-driven trading algorithms"

By Ed Yardeni(Yardeni Research)

Currently the leading Growth Stock index  $QQQ  has plunged from the 200 day sma(simple moving average) all the way down to the 400 day sma.  This is very concerning.  Similar thing happened from January 2016 to the lows in mid February 2016.  If similar scenario is to play out this time around, one can expect for the market to drop down another -5% to -8%.  Dr. Yardeni makes a good observation with a statement above that was published in the Barrons magazine over the weekend edition of Dec 10th.  If this were to happen, one could expect the  $QQQ  to drop down from the current levels of $161.38 all the way down to the levels past the February 9th 2018 lows.  That would essentially be a -20.25% correction from the all time highs achieved on Oct 1st of this year.  You would have to attain a gain of  +25%  just to break even.  This is why it's critical that retail investors close out their losing positions and conserve  CASH.    

According to IBD(Investors Business Daily), they had changed the market pulse to  "Market in Correction"  as of the market close on October 10th.  $QQQ  index had dropped down to the 200 day sma and it was time to start migrating to CASH and conserve the capital.  That was a loss of  -7.76%  with  $QQQ.  Not taking any defensive action at that time would now result with a loss of  -13.32%.  The next leg down will result in a further loss of another  -7%.  We as retail traders do not have an access to the algorithms that hedge funds utilize to automate their trading.  What we do have however is the nimbleness to get out of the market when the market pulse according to IBD, changes to  "Market in Correction".

Performance  of  My  14  Stocks

I had identified 14 Health Care stocks in my blog post on November 18th that met my very strict criteria of selection of the leading stocks in the leading sector. They all had an RS(Relative strength) ratings above 90.  11 of them had the ratings of 93 and above and they were all hovering around the 20 day sma while the  $QQQ  was under pressure trading below the 200 day sma.  These stocks have withstood the carnage in the market since October 5th.  Institutions supported these stocks while dumping other stocks in the other 8 sectors of the market.  Below is the comparison of the performance of these stocks with the $QQQ  since the  "Follow Thru"  day on Thursday Nov 29th:

1. $QQQ      ... - 3.94%
2. 14 Stocks ... - 3.70%   

The 14 stocks lost less than the leading Growth Stock index.  They are also trading above the 50 day sma and most of them are still above the 20 day sma.   $QQQ  on the other hand is depressed down all the way to the 400 day sma.  In order to conserve the capital, only 2 stocks are held currently - $AMED  and  $EW.  Both of these 2 stocks RS ratings has notched up last week.  That indicates the support of the institutions.

You  Can  TIME  The  Market   ... YES

Ideal time to get in the market is when IBD(Investors Business Daily) changes its market pulse to  "Market in Confirmed Uptrend".  On Wednesday Nov 28th, we had a confirmation of the 4th day of attempted rally in the market.  $SPY  as well as  $QQQ  had surged from the lows of April 2nd and heading up from the 400 day sma(simple moving average)  towards the  200 day sma.  Thursday was an ideal time to start taking a small position in the leading stocks.  Leading Growth Stocks tend to break out of the pack in the first week or so and start making gains immediately.  We had 7 weeks of heavy institutional selling since the beginning of October.  Migrating to CASH as of October 5th was an appropriate defensive action to take with your portfolio.

Market  Outlook

Its always best to look at the data that the market provides.  I know its very hard to control emotions of fear when the market continues to make all time lows.  In my post last week I mentioned that the market could go lower further  -5%  towards the February lows if the institutions continue to exit the market.  Conversely I also suggested to the possibilities of the market surging over  +9.74%  within 4 weeks like it did so in January of this year.  Retail investors have very little control over what the market does.  We have to watch the behaviour of the institutions since they are the ones that determine the direction of the market. 

Here is the performance of the 3 major indexes as well as the leading sector last week:

• $SPY    ... + 4.71%
• $DJI      ... + 5.16%
• $QQQ   ... + 6.38%
• $XLV     ... + 6.95% (Health Care Sector)

Stock  Positions  Initiated  

Its critical to have a strong Stock Watch List prepared when the market is correcting like it did since the beginning of October.  Being in  CASH  allows you to preserve your emotional capital as well.  This allows you to focus on the upcoming opportunities.  Market is exhibiting a very bullish stance right now.  December is traditionally the best performing month.  We have winds to our back right now.  The 4th quarter and the two following quarters after the mid term elections are historically the best performing quarters.  

There were 14 Health Care stocks listed in my blog post on November 18th.  Small stock positions were initiated at market open on Thursday November 29th just when IBD changed its market pulse to   "Market in Confirmed Uptrend".    These are the stocks that survived the market carnage.  They are all exhibiting an  RS (relative strength) ratings above 90. They are all holding up above the  8 day ema(exponential moving average) while the  $QQQ  the leading Growth Stock index is still below the 200 day sma.  This is what the institutional support looks like.  They offer the best odds of surging in price with institutional support.  They are already  + 1.02%  within 2 days.  I have indicated the entry price at market open on Thursday.  

1. $AMED   ... 132.75
2. $BEAT     ...  69.73
3. $CNC     ... 140.12
4. $EHC       ...  72.54
5. $ESRX    ... 100.41
6. $EW        ... 160.67
7. $HCA      ... 143.52
8. $HMSY    ...  34.76
9. $HZNP     ...  20.38
10. $ILMN    ...  332.00
11. $MEDP    ...  57.96
12. $MMSI     ...  61.20
13. $PRAH    ... 110.01
14. $UNH     ...  280.43

Monitor  and  Respect  50  day/200 day  Simple  Moving  Average  Lines

Institutions account for over 75% of the total daily trading volume in the US stock market.  Most of institutional trading occurs with algorithmic trading by computers.  These computers are programmed to scale up or scale down gradually with their stock purchases.  We as retail traders and investors do not have these tools to work with.  Our advantage lies in being very nimble.  We can get in and get out of the market faster than the institutions can.  This does require a lot of discipline and holding our emotions in check.  Being data driven is the key to preserving your portfolio and profiting in the market.  Institutions can not hide their purchases or disposition of stocks.  It shows up as either buying volume with the price escalating or selling volume with the price depressing. 

One of the simplest indicator that I teach my students is the 50 day and a 200 day simple moving averages plotted on any stock or index charts.  Institutions support the Growth Stocks that they are interested in when it touches the 50 day sma(simple moving average).  That is also the ideal time for us as retail investors to scale up with our purchases to be in synch with the institutions.  Same holds true if the stock or index plummets down the 50 day sma.  That is also the time for us as retail investors to scale down our positions.  This ought to be all figured out initially with a well thought out Trade Plan for the Stock.  It helps in keeping emotions in check and allow your trading system to take control instead. 

200 day sma is even more critical for us as retail traders.  That's the area that we don't want to be in as a Growth Stock investor.  Losses - capital as well as emotional - mount up and it becomes very difficult to recoup those losses.  Once the index or stock reaches that level, it can get even lower with institutions covering their short bets on stocks with options.  It is best to leave it up to the hedge funds that are    "Value Investors"    to prop up the stocks and the indexes.  For retail investors like us, the best approach is to be defensive and start migrating to  CASH  as the stock and the indexes begin to slice past the 50 day sma.   

Market  Outlook

Conditions in the market has taken a turn for the worse in the last 6 weeks.  Selling by the institutions has not subsided yet and currently the leading Growth Stock index  $QQQ  is all the way down to the 400 day sma.  We are down by  -14.48%  since the high reached on October 1st.  We have given up all the gains made this year and the  $SPY  is down  -1.50%  for the year to date.  Its best to stay in  CASH  for now until the hedge funds that are  "Value Investors"  come in and start deploying their cash out of the defensive dividend paying  $XLP (Consumer Staples) and  $XLU (Utilities) sectors into the new leading Growth Stocks. 

Where are we headed for the next 6 weeks before year end?  We have to be open minded and look at the data.  Market could continue selling off and head down to the Feb 9th low. That would be a further loss of  - 5%  of $QQQ.  The 50 day sma is already rolling over and it would head down and start slicing lower below the 200 day sma at that time.  In the year 2000 during the dot com bubble burst and the financial crises of  2008/2009,  $QQQ  got down to  $26.30.  That would be very painful.  It took us 18 years to recoup all our losses from the 2000 dot com bubble.  If you were 50 years of age in the year 2000, you can imagine how you would feel if you turned 68 now and be exactly where you were with your portfolio when you were 50. 

Ouch ! Ouch ! Ouch!   

We also have to be open to another scenario where by the institutions could decide to come back in the market with full force.  They may do that to do the window dressing to show their clients that it is worth giving them your money to manage and justify charging you 1% to 1.5% fees.  January of this year,  $QQQ  did manage to perform  +9.74%  within 4 weeks.  We have to be open minded with both scenarios to play out and act accordingly.  Right now it is best to be in  CASH  and let the institutions lead the way.  The best thing for retail investors to do now is continue building a strong actionable stock watch list every week.  Monitor the performance of the stocks on the watchlist against the leading Growth Stock index  $QQQ.   

Performance  of  My  22  Stocks  on  My  Watch  List

Its always a good idea to compare the performance of Growth Stocks on your watch list against the performance of the leading Growth Stock index  $QQQ.  I had posted  8  retail stocks and  14  stocks in health Care sector as possible candidates to initiate a trade once the selling begins to cease.  3 of the retail names - $DG, $FIVE and $OLLI have been taken off the list and  2  of the health care stocks - $EHC and $ILMN as well.  They are trading below the 50 day sma currently.  Rest of the 9 stocks are hovering around the 20 day sma(weekly chart) while the  $QQQ  is dragged down all the way to the 400 day sma.  These are the stocks that are being help up by the institutions.  Here are the results of this weeks performance compared to the  $QQQ:

8  Retail stocks :             ... - 2.41%

14 health Care stocks:   ... - 2.74%

$QQQ :                          ...  - 4.95%

My stocks held up better than the index and stayed close to the 20 day sma.  They also have a high RS ratings too.  This helps me in making sure that I have only the strongest stocks that are favoured by the institutions.  Its all about getting the odds in your favour.

Mentoring  Program

Retail traders should never have to suffer a  -40%  loss that they suffered during the 1987 mid October   "Market Crash"  or -50%  loss during the 2000 dot com bubble or the  -58%  loss during the last 2009 financial crises.  I have learnt that the hedge funds and mutual funds are not equipped to nor can they completely get out of the market during a crash.  Its not like they can park their money in a checking account like we can.

Happy  Thanksgiving

Every year at this time of the year, we all take stock of the blessings that has been bestowed upon us.  It is the time of the year we offer our gratitude for being blessed with a wonderful family, prosperity with our jobs and career and profitable returns on our investments in our retirement funds.  We are experiencing the best of the times in the US economy.  Unemployment is the lowest it has been in the last 50 years.  Industrial production is at an all time high compared to the stock market crashes of the year 2000 and 2007.  The world has become a better place.  More people in the world are prospering, having an access to better healthcare, getting educated and living a good life.  More people in the world have gotten out of poverty in the last 20 years than ever before in our human history.  I would personally like to offer a very special gratitude this Thanksgiving Holidays to all my followers for sharing your comments on how my posts have helped you get an insight into the market and profit from it.

US  Stock  Market  Compared  to  the  World

Its been brutal in the stock market for the past 6 weeks.  We had a  "Follow Thru"  day on November 7th but it quickly fizzled within 2 days.  Institutions haven't stepped in to deploy their harvested profits back in the market.  Without the fuel from these institutions, the market will remain depressed.  We had a  +16%  gain in the leading growth stock index  $QQQ  this year by Oct 1st.  11%  of that gain has evaporated within 4 weeks in October.  We are however doing a whole lot better than the other leading economies of the world.  Here is the what the rest of the world is dealing with compared to US:

• South Africa   - 24%
• South Korea   - 19%
• Germany        - 17%
• Mexico           - 16%
• China             - 12%
• Canada          - 10%
• Japan             - 9%
• US                  + 2.4% ($SPY General Market Performance)
• US                  + 7.50% ($QQQ Growth Stock Performance)

Stock  Watch  List

Thanksgiving week usually is a positive week in the market.  Market will be closed on Thursday and it will be 1/2 a day on Friday.  We are just 10% away with  $QQQ  from the all time high achieved on October 1st.  Market has been depressed for over 6 weeks now.  Its like holding the ball under the water for a long time.  When the market decides to recover, one can expect it to bounce back up in force very rapidly.  The other side of the coin is that the market could correct another  -6%  to test out the lows of April 2nd.  Its best to stay in CASH for now until the institutional selling ceases.  

Market has corrected across all major sectors in the last 6 weeks.  The 2 major indexes,  $SPY  and  $QQQ  are below the 200 day sma(simple moving average).  They have already been close to the 400 day sma and institutions never came in to support the indexes at the 200 day sma like they usually do.  That does not bode well for the market.  There are however several retail and healthcare stocks that have bucked the down trend.  These are the kinds of stocks that one ought to have on their Watch List.  Following are some of those stocks that have been holding up well during this correction.  I have indicated the resistance point in parenthesis:

Retail:

Follow  Thru  Day

Market had certainty after the elections on Tuesday Nov 6th.  The house went to the Democrats just as history suggested that it might.  In the last 50 years the house has always changed hands during the mid terms to the party opposing the incumbent president in the office.  Market took off right from the start the next day after the elections.  All the 3 major indexes, $DJI, $SPY and $QQQ posted a gain of over  +2.40%  in volume higher than the day before.  That changed the pulse of the market back to  "Confirmed Uptrend".  This was the 4th day of attempted rally and IBD (Investors Business Daily) declared a  "Follow Thru"  day.     

"Follow Thru"  day indicates that a new uptrend is underway.  Most traders are skeptical when this happens especially when the major indexex are trading below the 200 day sma(simple moving average).  Retail investors have a recency bias and cannot believe or trust that the new uptrend is underway.  One has to trust the data of the 4th day of successful attempted rally.  Stocks tend to break out during such periods and its critical to have a stock watch list ready and to start initiating small positions in several of the leading stocks.  Savvy investors look for uptrending RS lines on the stock charts and identify stocks that have an RS ratings above 94.  These stocks offer the best odds in your favour with a new uptrend.

Friday Nov 9th, it appeared that the  "Follow Thru"  day might just fizzle.  We had a  "Distribution Day"  on the  $SPY as well as  $QQQ.  Its always very concerning to see distribution days soon after the market gets a  "Follow Thru"  day.  Looking over the data from 2 years ago when we had a  "Follow Thru"  day after the Presidential elections on November 9th 2016, the market took a couple of days before it found its firm footing.  $QQQ  went on to deliver  +22%  within 6 months after the Presidential elections.  We will just have to take one day at a time this coming week and have the patience and an open mind.  Lets take our clues from the institutional investors because ultimately they are the ones that will decide where the market is going to be heading.

Performance  of  My  12  Stocks

Mr William J. O'Neil (Founder of Investors Business Daily)  has a firm rule about taking advantage of the  "Follow Thru"  day.  He says that:

"You should always buy something on a  "Follow Thru"  day."

He even suggests that you should start dipping your toes back in the market with small positions on several leading stocks.  You will quickly recognize the leaders and the laggards from your positions.  True leaders will break out and race up for quick gains of 2 to 2 and 1/2 times as fast as the general market does.  As a Growth Stock investor and a trader, you want to average up and not average down in the price of the stock.  Within a few days to weeks, you will notice leading stocks race up during a new uptrend.  You quickly want to closeout the laggards and use that capital to invest in the ones that are clear winners.  

Here is the performance of the 12 stocks that were mentioned in my blog post last week.  Virtual trade position on these stocks were taken on Friday Nov 2nd at the market open price.  I have highlighted their performance in parenthesis.  I have also indicated the performance of the 3 major indexes for comparisons. 

1. $ULTA     ... +11.90%
2. $MEDP    ... + 7.35%
3. $ROST    ... + 7.25%
4. $HCA      ... + 5.44%
5. $UNH      ... + 4.50% 
6. $AAP      ... + 3.75%
7. $DG        ... + 2.03%
8. $HQY      ... + 1.43%
9. $FIVE      ... + 0.26%
10. $TJX       ... + 0.13%
11. $TTD      ... - 3.73%
12. $LULU    ... - 5.37%

Indexes:

1. $QQQ   + 1.26%
2. $SPY    + 2.16%
3. $DJI      + 2.84%
4. My 12 stocks (10 winners and 2 losers  + 3.36% within 1 week)

It took us 9 months to attain a gain of  +18.54%  in the leading Growth Stock index $QQQ.  In the last  weeks, 12% (2/3 of the total profits) of that gain was just given back to the market.  That's something no retail investors should ever have to give up.  Learn to identify:

Sky  Hasn't  Fallen

Last week I was getting a lot of comments and messages from my followers looking for direction with their stocks and portfolio.  $SPY was heading towards the 400 day sma - something that hasn't happened since June of 2016.  It felt like we were going to see the repeat performance of the market crash of the dot com bubble of the year 2000 when the $SPY lost  51%  or what transpired during the 2008 financial crisis when the $SPY lost  58%.  There has been a lot of panic selling in the last 2 weeks as if the  "Sky Was Falling".  I repeatedly looked outside my window and all I saw was beautiful blue clear skies, gorgeous sunshine and cool crisp air with perfect calmness.  It than dawned on me.  It was I who was calm and clear thinking and at ease.  I had already started migrating to  CASH  a day before the IBD(Investors Business Daily) called  'Market in Correction'

It's been brutal to see all the 3 major indexes - $DJI, $SPY and $QQQ free falling and breaking down the last line of defense at the 200 day sma(simple moving average).  Institutions normally look at the 50 day sma as their initial level of support but they abandoned that line 3 weeks ago.  There was very little reason for the retail investors to remain in the market and defensive action of preserving the capital had to be the priority.  This has been my consistent message for the past several years with all my blog posts and tweets.  IBD changed the market pulse to  'Market in Correction'  on Wednesday Oct 10th.  Retail investors should have started migrating to  CASH  with appropriate trailing stops at least 5 days earlier to preserve the capital.

FEAR

"The Oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is the fear of the unknown"

By H.P. Lovecraft (writer)

Its best not to listen to any  'GURUS'  in the media and instead look at the data to arrive at any decision you make in the market.  We all know of the October 1987 market crash when the market dropped  22%  in one day.  Inspite of that fatal day in the market, looking over the data I find that we were in a 16 year bullish trend from  1984  to  2000.  $SPY had gained almost  +900%  in that time frame.  There was a lot of volatility and market correction along the way.  As a retail investor, its best to get out of the market gradually when the market accumulates a lot of distribution days.  Trading the stock market, one has to mitigate risk.  One can always get back in the market when the conditions improve.

We have gone through a  10%  correction twice this year.  One was in late January/early February and the second one was in mid March/early April.  Currently, We have gone through a  9%  correction with the  $SPY  in the month of October so far.  The only major difference this time around is that the  $SPY is at the 400 day sma.  The last time this happened was in June of 2016.  Lot of institutional selling currently is fear based because of recency bias of the memories of the year 2000 and 2008 market crashes.  Selling has been furious this time around and it took a shorter time frame for the  $SPY  to plummet down to the 400 day sma.  Looking over the data we find that the  $SPY skyrocketed  9%  within 2 weeks from the June 2016 lows.  We ought to be open to the possibility of a very similar move when the market begins to rally.  

Do You Have Your Stock Watch List Ready ?   

Performance  of  My  15  Stocks 

Currently I am taking the data of the market day by day as we head into a new week and the last 3 days of October.  We need for the institutional selling to cease and have them redeploy their harvested profits back into the Growth Stocks.  There has been a lot of technical damage done to the stocks across all sectors right now.  When the market goes back into a rally mode and we get a 'Confirmed Uptrend',  it's quite possible that we may have a new leadership of stocks emerging.  This is the week when every retail trader ought to be scouring stocks that have withstood this carnage and exhibiting leadership qualities.  I had published a list of 15 stocks in my blog post on October 14th.  These were the stocks that were trading above the 20 day sma at that time.  They are all above the 100 day sma currently and most of them are above the 50 day sma while the  $SPY  is at the 400 day sma.  This is an indication of institutional support for these stocks during this correction.  

When market goes into correction, you can expect  75%  of the stocks  to follow the general down trend. Its always a good idea to check the performance of the Growth Stocks on your watch list against the leading Growth Stock index $QQQ.  Here are the comparison results since Oct 14th when I published this list:

$QQQ            ... - 4.40%

My 15 Stocks ... -3%

My stocks outperformed the general market as well as the leading Growth Stock Index  $QQQ.  While the general market as exhibited by  $SPY  is at the dangerous 400 day sma, my stocks are holding up well above the 100 day sma (some are closer to the 50 day sma) with this carnage in the market.  These are the kinds of stocks one ought to have on their watch list at this time.

Mentoring  Service

It took us 9 months to attain a gain of  +19.52%  in the leading Growth Stock index $QQQ.  In the last 3 weeks, 10.5% of that gain was just given back to the market.  That's something no retail investors should ever have to give up.  Learn to identify:

• Right type of Growth Stocks in current environment.

CASH  is  a  Position  Too

Is this market ruining your day?  Are you getting down on yourself with what the market is doing right now? 

Don't think this is the same scenarios as the 1987 October market crash when the DOW dropped down by  - 22%  on that infamous Monday Oct 19th.  I still remember that week because my portfolio eroded by  -40%  by the end of that week.  First order of business for me that week was to take the total control of my retirement portfolio and fire those so called  "Smart Money". 

There were plenty of signals a month before the market crashed in Oct 1987 for retail investors to get out before facing the train wreck.  Institutions were starting to migrate from the stocks almost a month prior in mid September to dividend paying stocks.  The charts were clearly showing that the  $DJI  index had crossed below the  50 day sma.  There were a cluster of  'Distribution Days'  piling up as well.  This was a clear signal to retail investors to scrutinize their positions and start migrating to  CASH.  There were  11  'Distribution Days'   by the time 1st week of October rolled around.  One should have migrated to  CASH  at that time while the  $DJI  was at 2560  instead of waiting after all the dust settled and the  $DJI  was down to 1660.  Institutions can't go into  CASH  like we retail investors can.  It takes them several weeks to completely get out of a position just because of the sheer size of their liquidity.

Institutions account for over  75%  to  80%  of trading volume everyday in the market.  Algorithmic computerized auto trading accounts for more than  50%  of institutional trading in todays high speed trading.  Triggers for trailing stops are set along the way and as such we as retail traders, have no edge with the institutional traders.  Its so critical for retail traders to respect the simple moving averages of 50 day and 200 day sma(simple moving averages).  These are the critical areas of support that institutions have on their radar.  If they don't support at these critical simple moving averages than we as retail traders just don't stand a chance.

Lessons  Learnt

We all have  'Recency'  bias as retail traders and investors.  Memories of the  2000  dot com bubble and the  2008/2009  market crash from the housing bubble are still very fresh on every ones mind.  Current market conditions are nothing like these two recent market crashes.  During these two recent market crashes as well as the one in 1987, the  50  day sma had rolled over the 200 day sma.  One can clearly see the waterfall look of the 50 day sma rolling over precipitously over the  200 day sma.  We don't have anything like that look on our major index charts right now.  Currently the  50/100/200  day sma are all running parallel to each other on a daily/weekly/monthly charts. 

During our regular monthly IBD (Investors Business Daily) meetup on Oct 9th, I shared and pointed out very clearly on the leading Growth Stock index  $QQQ  where it clearly violated the  50 day sma on Thursday Oct 4th.  Trading volume was twice the normal average trading volume that day.  By noon that day (2.5 hours of trading), there was as much trading volume as what one would encounter on a normal average day.  Clearly institutions were bailing out of the Growth Stocks and migrating to dividend paying stocks.  The next day on Friday, we encountered similar high average trading volume and the index dropped down to the 100 day sma.  This was clearly an indication of  'Market in Correction'   territory and a very clear signal to get into  CASH.  $QQQ  has eroded another  -5%  since  Friday Oct 5th.  Important lessons to take away is:

• Learn to read the stock and index charts.
• Learn to identify  'Distribution Days'   and the market pulse.
• Learn to create a Trade plan on any position you take.
• Understand and learn the creative ways of scaling into a position and scaling out of a position with staggered trailing stops.
• Most of all, protect your portfolio by all means and mitigate risk as much as possible. 

     

Stay in CASH and don't take any stock position under current circumstances.  Let the selling by institutions settle down.  Wait until the dust settles and get a confirmation that we are clearly out of the woods. In the mean time, do what I do ... Enjoy the gorgeous sunsets in Florida at this time of the year.  Take time off and enjoy the family.  You will eventually get a  'Follow Thru'  day.  Have patience.  Conserve your portfolio.

Happy Trading!

Did  u  Evacuate  the  Market ?

We were facing a hurricane in the market on Thursday October 4th when there was a major selling by the institutions.  Leading Growth Stock index  $QQQ  trading volume that day was 2 times the average daily volume and it had gapped down at the market open.  By midday there was just as much trading volume as the daily average volume of 40 million shares changing hands.  Index had already dropped down to the 50 day sma(simple moving average) by the end of the day on Thursday.  The carnage did not stop there and we had continued selling volume the next day as well.  By Friday close of the market, the index had dropped down to the 100 day sma.  

We had a  -10.25%   correction in the market at the end of January/beginning of February and again  -8.9%   correction in mid March but it took 9 trading days to get the index down to the 100 day sma.  This time around it took just 4 trading days to bring the index from the 20 day sma all the way down to the 100 day sma.  That was a brutal sell off in the market and as a retail trader/investor, it was time to bail out of the market and start raising  CASH.  At this time it really doesn't matter how good the stocks you have picked are.  One of the rules to follow is to cut the losses and bail out of a stock if the stock has attained a loss of  -5%  to  -6%  and kissing the 50 day sma.  

If you are a Growth Stock trader/investor, its always a good thing to remember that they tend to do twice as better as the general market does but they also fall twice as fast when the market corrects.  We have already gone through a  -9%  correction in the  $QQQ  and now we are at the  200 day sma.  Growth Stocks that took the pummeling last week, are probably down by  -15%  to  -20%  if no defensive action was taken last week to bail out.  You would have to make  +25%  in your next position to break even at this point.

Mr. William J. O'Neil (Founder of Investors Business Daily) has developed rules to follow for traders/investors that utilize his methodology.  Here is a link to the utube video of his interview.  It will help us all learn some sound basic rules to follow when the market goes into a correction mode the next time.  Click on the link below:

Market  Condition

According to IBD (Investors Business Daily), the market pulse has changed to  "Market in Correction"  as of last Wednesday October 10th.  $QQQ  is down to the 200 day sma.  Institutions have to step in and support the market.  Most of the stocks are beaten down across all sectors and a lot of technical damage has been done to the stocks.  Friday was the first day of an attempted rally in the market.  It wasn't quite as powerful in trading volume as the one we had on February 9th.  We need 3 more days in a sequence of a market rally for confirmation that we are out of the woods.  This is the time to be cautious and not take any new positions until we get a  "Follow Thru"  day.  This is also the time to be looking at stocks that have held up during this market break down.  Stocks that have held up above the 30 day sma and exhibiting a strong  RS  line, may be the next leaders in the market.  This  "Follow Thru"  day may not be as strong as the one we had on Feb 14th of this year since so much damage has been done to the leading stocks.  We also have the 3 rd quarter earnings season in session now.

Stocks  to  Study

Lot of Growth Stocks have come down to the 50 day sma and what one ought to look at is a strong bounce off the 50 day sma.  Institutions generally support a stock at that level if they are interested in them.  Here is a list of stocks that have held up and indicating institutional interest.  I have highlighted in parenthesis what I consider to be the resistance point for each of those stocks.  Some are already extended and a bit risky at this point.  It's a good rule of thumb to follow of taking a small position initially during  a  "Follow Thru"  day.  Let the stock prove itself to you that they are worthy of your investment before adding to your position.

Leading Growth Stock index  $QQQ  attained a performance of  +32%  in 2017.  This year it is  +5.5%  inspite of the  -10.67%  correction that we just faced in the last 9 days.  The best 3 months of the mid term election year are ahead of us.  This is the 3rd year of a possible 9 year rally in the market.  Are you getting frustrated that you have been left behind and not fully able to capture the true potential of this unprecedented market rally?  Did you give up most of the gains of  +19%  that we had until 9 days ago?  Nothing should stop you from attaining success in the stock market.

  We  R  not  Heading  into  a  Recession

It was a very brutal week last week.  Market took a turn for the worse on Thursday and it did not let up on Friday either.  Leading Growth Stock index  $QQQ  dropped  -3%  within the week and knifed through the 50 day sma(simple moving average).  It even went on to kiss the 100 day sma in volume that was more than 2 times the daily average volume traded with $QQQ.  Institutions were out in full force harvesting their well earned profits from the Technology Sector ($XLK) and Consumer Discretionary Sector ($XLY).  These 2 sectors have been the leading sectors to propel the  $QQQ  Growth Stock index to  +20%  by October 1st.  That sort of performance is not something to sneeze at.  You do however have to respect what the market is telling you and its prudent to take defensive action in the market now.  We have gone through 4 major corrections in the market this year after attaining its all time highs when the  $QQQ  dropped as low as the 100 day sma.  Here is the data of the 4 major corrections we had this year outlined below:

1.    Feb 8th          -10%
2.    March 23rd     -8%
3.    April 24th        -5%
4.    Oct 5th           -3%

Most traders and investors have a difficult time holding their emotions in check dealing with the market on a day to day basis.  Markets don't go up straight every day and one should expect the market to twist and make turns.  Market doesn't really care much for our opinions and well done research.  You just have to listen to what the market is telling you and pay attention to and respect the moving averages.  In the month of January of this year, the market was up by 10%.  Within 2 weeks after attaining an all time high on January 26th, market took away all of that gain back and  more within two weeks.  There is absolutely no reason to be in that sort of a predicament ever.  Learn to create a well thought out Trade Plan for any position you take and have the game plan to stagger your trailing stops should the market stumble like it did on Thursday and Friday of last week. 

Heading  into  the  best  3  Months  Ahead 

I know its hard to believe that October could be one of the best 3 months in the market this quarter after the brutal action we witnessed in just 2 days last week.  Let's just look at the historical data instead and hold our emotions in check.  Its true that we witnessed October market crash of the 1929, 1987 and 2008 when the market corrected over 50% and more.  According to Ryan Detrick of LPL Financial, he commented on CNBC on Squawk Box on October 1st that 

 "October tends to be a strong month for stocks during the mid term years, going back to 1950 through 2017"  

Since 1982, stocks have fallen only once during the mid term year in the month of October.  October has also been the best month going back all the way to 1950 for all mid term years.  On an average, October has an historical performance of  +3.3%  during the mid term presidential years.  Could we have a similar performance this year too ?  No one can predict that.  It's always good to be prepared should the market deliver such a performance.  As a reminder to my followers and readers of this blog, just know that the market did recover by  +12%  within 4 weeks after it had brutally corrected by  -10%  in January/February.  Market has been very resilient and the bullish trend is still intact.  Its a good idea to start raising  CASH  right now and be cautious in the market this week.

Stock  Market  is  Data  Driven

Ignore all the noise in the market and look at what the data tells you when you look at a stock chart.  Last week all we had on tv and print media was about Mr. Kavanaugh - the supreme court nominee - or tweets from Mr. Trump on tariffs and his speech at the UN blasting at China and the WTO (World Trade Organization).  Jeremy Powell decided to raise interest rates and from the way everyone was discussing on tv, you would think it would lead to a recession.  Interest rates were over 4.5% at the start of the recession and we are no where close to that yet.  All the talk of North Korea and Iran pursuing their nuclear programs is now on the back burner.  Market keeps humming along without a misstep with all the media noise in the back ground. 

In my talks at the investors meetings in the local area, I quite often remark:

"Market has no religious or political bias"

Last week, Mr. Warren Buffett was interviewed on CNBC Morning Squawk Box show and he shared his views very well about the politics and mid term elections we are facing in just 5 weeks.  I will share with you some data on mid term elections in my post next week.  It will be quite an eye opener  Please listen to the link below of the interview:

Market  Performance  for  September

September is the worst month traditionally when you look over the performance over the last 50 years.  $SPY  exhibits a performance historically of  - 0.47%.   2017 and 2018 have been an exception since they both have been in a positive territory.  Performance for the 3 major indexes and the leading sector for the month of September is as follows:

• $QQQ   ... - 0.46%
• $SPY    ...  + 0.14%
• $DJI      ...  + 1.90%  
• $XLV     ...  + 2.54% (Health Care Sector)

Health care has been creeping up slowly and methodically since July of this year.  We have a gain of  +14%  in the sector since July of this year.  Institutions have been harvesting their profits from the leading stocks in the technology group - especially the software group and deploying them in the Health Care Sector.  Some of the leading names in this sector are $HCA, $CNC, $UNH, $AET to name a few.  They will all be reporting their 3rd quarter earnings in the next 2 to 3 weeks.  They have all been consolidating for the last couple of weeks.

 "The only thing that stands between you and your dreams is the will to try and the belief that it is actually possible"
