Posting issues

A frustrating day using Blogger. Looks like third party ISP users are getting the shaft with Blogger's FTP feature. Usually Blogger are fairly good at correcting these issues but this one has dragged - am I the only one to suffer?

I have a free stock pick up on my parent site. If you are looking for the free stock picks this is the best place to start. I don't post stocks on a regular basis, although subscribers do get all picks by email via PDF - so they don't need to check back regularly to find updates.

My daily market commentary is also available on the parent site home page.

Annotated charts are kept on Stockcharts.com Public list for those who prefer their information visually. Other Bloggers to maintain public Stockchart lists are Danny Merkel at Goldstockprophet, Chris Perruna at Chrisperruna.com, Dane Jacobsen at Ecostocktrader.com, Hector Rivera at Rsstockcycles, and Bill Rempel at Bill Rempel, a.k.a. NO DooDahs!. Someone who I thought had Public Stockchart list, but couldn't find it was Joey at Downtowntrader, maybe I am wrong on that one?

S&P "Bull Trap"?

Image
I thought there was sufficient evidence to argue against a "bull trap" in the S&P, but it would appear the market wasn't interested in such thoughts and sellers were quick to reverse the initial push above 4,200.  Adding to the pain were new 'sell' triggers in MACD and On-Balance-Volume, although the former occurred above the 'bullish' zero line, making it a weak signal. Selling volume ranked as distribution as selling momentum picked up speed.  The index is also underperforming relative to the Russell 2000.

"Black Candlesticks" are a concern for the S&P and Nasdaq

Image
A bright start for bulls on the back of positive $NVDA earnings wasn't enough to generate a day of meaningful gains.  However, it did help stall the losses of the last couple of days. The Nasdaq was the biggest beneficiary of today's action, but not enough to see an end-of-day finish that cleared last week's swing high, nor delivery of a large white candlestick, despite the morning breakout gap.  Technicals are net bullish and relative performance against the S&P has become consistently stronger since the start of May.  While today's candlestick I would view as typically 'bearish', today's volume ranked as confirmed accumulation (bullish). Overall, I would be looking for higher prices from here.

Round 2 for the bearish "black" candlestick in S&P and Nasdaq

Image
The Nasdaq started brightly but ended up closing below its open price, but above yesterday's close. The S&P did something similar, although the intraday range is narrower. These two setups are somewhat complicated by the new 'buy' triggers in On-Balance-Volume for both the Nasdaq and S&P. And the new MACD trigger 'buy' for the S&P. Price action is key, so I would expect the candlestick to trump the technical picture; watch for lower prices tomorrow.
