MTG Market Timing Model – buy mode (but cautious)
Our timing model was designed to keep our trades in line with the prevailing market trend, not to call tops or catch bottoms in S&P 500 or Nasdaq Composite.
today’s watchlist (potential trade entries):
closed positions:
position notes:
- No trades triggered.
In last night’s report, we discussed resistance at the 20-period EMA on the hourly chart of $SPY and whether or not the price could recover back above. $SPY stalled 2x at the 60 min/ 20-period EMA on Wednesday before selling off sharply into the close.
Possible target area around $435 IF the price is unable to bounce back above the 20-day EMA on the daily chart within the next few days.
A potential change in character?
The Nasdaq Composite is now trading below the 20 and 50-day MAs and is no longer in trend mode. When the price is below the 20-day EMA on the daily there usually isn’t much to do. Our short-term game plan is to remain in cash and see how major indices and leading stocks react to Wednesday’s selling.
If/when conditions improve, $UPST is at the top of our shopping list after a big volume gap up and bullish follow-through. No entry here though, just watching for now.
$DLO closed +26% higher in reaction to earnings. If the potential gap up holds, then $DLO could be in play down the road.
A few other stocks on our main IBD/Canslim list are: $DOCS $LC $DDOG $ZI $U
Unofficial Setups – For experienced traders only, no guidance is given for these setups.
