NSE:HAL 2 UP on the quarter but not strong enough to close above Q3 high inside year = no clear direction messy 3M chart = neutral and a need to wait for more clues oil & energy (related) names not the strongest this year, which could mean (more) potential upwards, but need to see price confirm that suggestion first
NASDAQ:GOOG Magnificent 7 did great this year, GOOG included strong close, 4 green quarters in a row exhaustion risk -for what it's worth- around that 152 level will be interesting to see how this level (and similar levels for the other big 6) will play any role in what the big guys/institutes will do here let's watch and see, anything can happen, incl....
NYSE:DOW a great example why long term investing doesn't always beat shorter term speculating/trading current price at same level as EOY '19.... closed the 2 down quarter green, above the low of previous quarter = positive inside year = no clear direction, until market gives us new clues = neutral anything can happen
The good thing about NYSE:DIS is the outside quarter but, it couldn't close above that Q3 high, so still not that strong of a look given it took out the low of '22 and closed above it, this could mean we've seen the worst overall, if the 3 on the quarter might see some continuation upwards, I see this just as the first baby steps of what could be a nice...
NASDAQ:CMCSA that momo hammer on the quarter looks promising, but these type of candles can easily reverse and when it does, it typically drops back quickly the inside year tells me to wait for further clues first before taking trades hence, no long or short (bias) for me on this one yet obviously, when that hammer high on the quarter gets taken out and...
Financials did well in Q4 NYSE:BAC with a bright green 3 on the quarter hammer on the year, with lot of upside potential notice that other financials e.g. JPM ended the year at/above previous highs meaning BAC wasn't the strongest of them but, also could mean more upside potential let' see how it plays out in '24 no predictions, price and time will...
Inside year, see how BABA got stuck in between the high and low of 2022 going nowhere, you can hear Rob say.... bearish shooter look on this yearly red inside bar ugly sure, it might get taken back up, but let's start with a reversal quarter first and we'll go from there taking out the low of '22 seems more likely at this point let's see, no predictions
NASDAQ:AMZN another bright green candle on the year it did take out the low of previous year in Q1 by a bit so, strat wise it's a 2 down on the year, obviously bright green is it extended? maybe..... but, the good thing for those with a bullish bias, still 2 previous yearly highs to take out how strong will AMZN be in 2024? Let's see
NASDAQ:AMD what a move, bright green year, but still inside year outside quarter, inside year extended? maybe, who knows, but.... always room for a further move up, especially given the highs of '22 and '21 both, not taken out yet.... let's see how semi conductors will move from here, in the A.I. era
AAPL outside quarter and outside year exhaustion risk, with a little nuance see how it did take out the Q3 highs, but couldn't close above it (although bright green) one of the good things about zooming out to the higher timeframes, is that another (massive) move up can occur also known as a 3-2 to the upside let's see what happens, keeping an aye on it for sure
I see a lot of comments (or is it: hope) about a end-of-year rally IF it happens THEN I'd be happy to take some long plays For now, what we now to be true is TSLA is (still) a red 2D on the quarter WHAT IF the aggressive sellers keeps selling? We could se the next quarterly low soon instead of new highs Hence, trade what you see, not what you want to see.
AMEX:SPY still up around 10% on the year but 2 down (and red) on the quarter quarterly target would be around 403 who would have thought half a year ago.... end-of-day-rally might repair the market a bit, but for now, if we just look at price we see conflict as in still green (inside) on the year, but red (2d) on the quarter let's see P.S. learn...
Q's still up a decent 33% on the year, but that quarterly.... IF we take out 351 anytime soon, what will be left of that yearly gain (?) Let's see how it plays out, anything can happen ANYTHING Let price action guide you, the only thing that really matters (to me)
Red day(s) that triggered Red (outside) week that triggered Red month and red quarter..... AMEX:DIA 2 down on the quarter and not looking good Let's see if an 'end-of-day-rally' can bring some light to the darkness the last months of the year For now..... FTFC DOWN
Weekends are great to zoom out and look at the bigger picture. 3M and 12M thus Quarter and Year Which for IWM (as many others) don't look particularly well, apart for the shorts ; - ) Will we see another 2d on the Y (?) or the 'traditional end-of-year-rally'
Similar look for NASDAQ:QQQ as for AMEX:SPY on the D, W, M and 60 The month looks a tiny bit better as it is still inside of previous month (a.k.a. a 1) Given it's the firs month of Q4 we also have an inside on the quarter, but it looks more probable that it will take out previous Q's low than the high Zooming out, in this case to the Quarter and the Year...
Using multiple timeframes and marking (your) important levels are two of the many valuable takeaways from studying price action based on #TheStrat Top left: daily Top right: weekly Bottom right: monthly Bottom left: hourly a.k.a. the 60 We did take out previous week high THEN reversed back into the range (taking the weekly red) As soon as we were below...
Look at multiple time frames, and see: red 2 down day last Friday week still a green 2 up, but notice how it took out previous week high(s) and then crawled back close to last week's high similarly to what NASDAQ:QQQ and AMEX:SPY did aggressive (institutional) buying -with likely continuation- tends to close at the high instead, the weekly has a bit...
