  • Notes -
      • CHD broke a three month downtrend line on very heavy volume.
      • Has pulled back on relatively lighter volume.
      • Retraced about 38% of the move up (from 3/31 to 4/3).
      • The buy entry is over the downtrend line of the pullback, but we are going over the whole number just to be safe.
      • The stop is placed beneath the low of the 4/8.
      • Trade expectations - Given the strong volume on the move up, we expect CHD to resume the uptrend and establish new highs shortly thereafter.

      Notes:

      • Per intraday email alerts we:
        • Sold SIAL to protect gains after a weak bounce from Monday's pullback.
        • Sold FLR on a bounce off the lows to lock in a solid gain.
        • Added 100 shares to our position in V.


      Market Conditions / Gameplan:

    • The major averages are pulling back on lighter volume and ignoring all kinds of bad news. This is bullish price action. Strong stocks continue to lead the market higher. The price action of leading stocks will gauge how strong this rally is. We are looking to establish new long positions on breakouts or pullbacks from new highs.



      Market Leaders:

        Monitoring the price action of leading stocks is the best way to gauge the health of the market (when the market is trending higher). This list of leaders is updated every Monday.

          Leaders - AKS ANR APA CLF CMP FDG FST GGB GILD HP ILMN LNN MEE PDC SCHN SIAL SQM SYT WFT WLT X XEC

          Strong stocks at/near the 50-day MA (a key institutional support level) - AEM BMRN GG PAAS

          Leading stocks breaking the 50-day (last week) - none


        Notes on leaders:

      • This rally is just starting out, but so far we like the action. Leading stocks are breaking out to new highs and new chart patterns/setups are emerging.

      Open Position Detail:

      • BRKR - Holding above the 20-day EMA, still range bound. No change in stop.
      • ISRG - Finding support at hourly uptrend line. No change in stop.
      • RRC - Found support at 20-EMA/60-minute. If the hourly swing low of 67 cant't hold, then we will trail a very tight stop top preserve some of the gain.
      • V - Strong price and volume action yesterday. No change in stop.
