We recently made some major changes to the back-end of the Morpheus Stock Screener that we’re excited about, and we want to keep you in the loop as well. For starters, we overhauled the software to deliver faster and more reliable end-of-day data updates across the board. Daily price data is now typically updated within […]
It’s been a wild ride in the stock market since the new year began, which caused our market timing model to shift into “neutral” mode several weeks ago. But although we’ve been laying low while waiting for a clear trend to be established, we recently scored a solid 35% gain when we closed our position in […]
2014 was another excellent year of swing trading and marked the twelfth straight year that Morpheus has been providing winning stock picks, educational technical analysis, and live trading commentary to subscribers of The Wagner Daily newsletter. Last year, we began including full access to the Morpheus Stock Screener as a complimentary, value-added enhancement to all Wagner Daily newsletter […]
Recently, we were invited to present a live, educational webinar at the 2014 Festival of Traders. That’s when Rick Pedicelli, head trader of MTG, decided to unleash the details of his favorite type of momentum swing trade, the Blast Off Setup.

Moreover, last week’s rule-based shift to “sell” […]
Apple has begun showing signs of institutional distribution this month, as the NASDAQ corrects lower. The 50-day moving average of Apple has been violated as well. Will the household maker of smartphones be a drag on the tech-heavy NASDAQ as well? We think so, and here’s why…
When a stock or index closes near its 50-day moving average, a subsequent dip below that level to “shake out the weak hands” is usually inevitable. That makes the 50-day MA one of the most reliable indicators to monitor during a market correction by time or price. Here’s why…

Since I received a lot of positive feedback on that post, I penned this follow-up article to build on that mini-lesson by drilling down to focus on just one intraday moving average in particular. This incredible intraday indicator helps you […]
