US Stocks Watchlist – 8 August 2024
The full post is available to view by members only. For immediate access:
The market continues to attempt to bounce on what the CAN SLIM method traders would call Day 3, and so tomorrow is where they start watching for a potential Follow Through Day (FTD), and so would need a further powerful rally day to achieve that.
However, of note was that while todays percentage moves in the major indexes was very large. Both the Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500 (see above chart) failed to close above even the previous days high, and a further strong day like today would only get them back to their declining 21 day EMAs. So they are in a short-term downtrend within what looks to be potential Stage 3 on the weekly chart currently and attempting to bounce from the Mondays swing low. Hence, it's a more favourable environment for the short-term swing traders that can play quick moves on both sides with the increased volatility. Whereas Stage 3 for the position traders / investors is a time for trimming into strength and considering more defensive strategies in the Stage Analysis method.
