The Fed Doesn’t Matter Anymore

Filed under: Stock Sector — Online Stock Trading @ 10:40 pm

The Nasdaq made quite a reversal at day’s end, after stalling just below it’s 20 day moving average. The sell signal still hasn’t failed, since that red candlestick from three days ago was not traded above today. Choppy and trendless trading will probably continue here.

The double short ETF for the Financial sector, SKF bounced off a long-term trendline. Check out that volume. GS broke above that 200 resistance, but closed ugly, with an inverted hammer.

Airlines have rallied off the low, while forming a wedge to the upside. XAL, the Airlines index, stalled at the 50 dma. I’ll be watching for shorts in the sector on an expected pullback. JBLU is one candidate for a pullback after this bounce.

Who Cares How Much the Fed Cuts

Filed under: Stock Picks — Online Stock Trading @ 11:31 pm

Will the fed lower rates by .25? Will they cut by .50? This online stock trader doesn’t care. I’ll be cash going into the announcement, and evaluate after.

GRMN traded in a tight range today. It’s on my radar for a move to the 20 dma.

Financials are edging up against resistance. I’m using the bullish Proshares ETF UYG to follow the sector. I’m watching that ETF and GS still to see if Goldie can get over 200 and stay there. It seems the Goldman Sachs daily chart is indicating an inverse head and shoulders pattern. A break of that and the trendline could light a fire under the sector.
