    I am very often asked what I think of the market here. Often I have an opinion, other times I do not. My current take is that the market might go higher, but if it doesnt it could go lower. If it does not do either of these things then we would be in for more sideways trade. PROFOUND! So...

    I am currently flat, however there are a few names standing out, suprisingly it is on the long side. One name in particular I like right now is Garmin (GRMN). I am first a market technician, so I always start off looking at charts. This particular stock has a strong breakout on the weekly...

    The market is getting interesting here. I think we are starting to see an intermediate term top being put in. Leadership has fallen, AAPL and GOOG for example. To me the most important indicator in the market is my lists. Each night I scan and on the left side of piece of paper I put...

    In books, on CDs at seminars etc you always hear people tell you that one of the most important things to do is to combine timeframes. Look at the weekly chart and make sure that there is room to move up there before you take your swingtrade based on the daily chart, or look at the daily before...

As I looked at sectors this weekend the best looking ones were Rails, Commercial Services, Life Insurance, Movies, Office Suppliers, Variety Stores, Truckers and Wireless Telecomm. On the short side Utilities, Major Retailers...

    The market is in a pretty interesting place here. Yesterday for the first time small caps and mid caps really got hit hard with the rest of the market. I want to sit back and let the market digest this so I know if the divergance has finally been sorted out and we are going to head lower, or was...
