Meanwhile, mining picks are getting blown out as technical buy signals fail left and right. And so we are reduced to following Newton’s law of trading. Hold ’em and hope. But not for long. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Last week was a good week for the longs on the list and another bad week for the shorts.  Picks closed out last week or currently open, show an average theoretical gain of 4.9% on an average holding period of 26 calendar days. 69% of the picks show gains. 31% have losses. The numbers assume all cash, no leverage, no margin, no options. show losses. Non-subscribers click here for access.

The month of July as a whole was difficult. After starting off with a string of losses on closed picks, the month ended at dead breakeven on closed picks,  thanks to the good last two weeks. 63% of the picks were winners, but the result was only a breakeven. I marvel at those options tout services who report 1000% gains month after month. But I wonder why they don’t own the world. Non-subscribers click here for access.

June was solid, with 25 picks closed at an average theoretical gain of 9.7% on an average holding period of 36 calendar days. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Let the Scary Pictures On Primary Dealer Financing Do the Talking

Lee Adler

Dealer fixed income positions have shrunken recently. Is that because they are selling and deleveraging or is it because they must mark to market while their inventories lose value.  Non-subscribers, click here for access.

It looks like the latter. Because they have been adding T-bills and taking on a massive amount of new leverage via the private repo route. It’s clear that that leverage is being put to use, and the evidence shows that it’s not going into the bond market. It’s going to stocks.  Non-subscribers, click here for access.

Full Load of Longs, But Adding 2 Shorts

Lee Adler

I’m adding 2 shorts to the list, against 0 buys. With 19 longs already on the list, and the uptrend aging, I’m reluctant to add more at this point. Consequently, I did not review the buy signal charts. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Technical Trader subscribers click here to download the complete report.

The screens produced 127 charts with multiple buy signals as of the last two trading days of the past week. There were 78 charts with a second sell signal. We have enough buys on the list, and with the age of the uptrend, I’m more willing to look at the short term sell signals. What I saw were a lot of sell signals within uptrends. I’m not a fan of trying to pick countertrend top swing trades. Too often the pullbacks are shallow, or don’t happen at all. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Two shorts hit stops last week. I’m closing out another one based on the opening price this morning. After these changes, there will now be 25 active picks on the list of which, 19 are buys, and 7 are shorts. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Last week was a good rebound week for us after a bad start in the first week of the month.. Picks closed out last week, or currently open, show an average theoretical gain of 4.1% on an average holding period of 20 calendar days. Non-subscribers click here for access.

However, so as not to mislead, 12 picks closed out so far in July have all been losers, in honor of cut your losses and let your profits run. I’ll do a full accounting of the month next week. For now, including open positions, the month is a hair above break even. Non-subscribers click here for access.

7/10/23 June was solid, with 25 picks closed at an average theoretical gain of 9.7% on an average holding period of 36 calendar days. The numbers assume all cash, no leverage, no margin, no options. Non-subscribers click here for access.

I have adjusted or added stops on just a few of the picks. The rest I have left without stops because the price and indicator patterns are good, so I will let those ride, with the assumption of risk mitigation through diversification and small position sizes. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Market Looks Poised

Lee Adler

I am on a train to Nuremberg this morning. Lots of thoughts about what happened here 8 decades ago.

Meanwhile, I see no reason yet to have major doubt about this market trend. It’s due for a breather, but looks just as due for more upside first. Here’s what to look for.

Correlations Don’t Matter Until They Do, Like Now

Lee Adler

I have been meaning for weeks to hunt for correlations in the data between bank loans to shadow banks and stock prices, and between bank repo loans to the direction of stock prices. The road to hell is paved with good intentions, right? I spent a couple of hours looking at the data every which way, and I found some occasional correlation, but other times there was none. Sometimes hunches don’t pay. It was a lot of time spent for nothing. But some time spent for something. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

Where I continue to find a strong correlation is between the direction of the Fed’s RRP slush fund (down) and stock prices (up). That has been persistent over the past year. The evidence supports the idea I first put out here a couple of years ago. That is that when the RRPs would start coming down, it would be a bullish signal for stock prices. Here’s the proof, with the amount of RRPs outstanding plotted on a negative (or inverse) scale. See chart in report.  Non-subscribers, click here for access.

The implication here is that as long as the total RRPs are decreasing (rising on this chart), then stock prices are likely to continue rising.  Non-subscribers, click here for access.

So, we will continue to keep an eye on that. This week, there was an uptick in the RRPs, and stock prices started to waffle. A precursor to something? Maybe…  Non-subscribers, click here for access.

Swing Picks Following Gold’s Yellow Brick Road

The initial upside projection on the 13 week cycle has been hit but I don’t think that this is the last word. This report shows why and tells where gold is headed next. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

Meanwhile, there were 4 charts of gold miners that met the criteria of at least 2 buy signals over the past week including one in the past two days. That’s after 13 such signals the previous week. Of the 4 this week, one was xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx. I added it and one other, xxx, to the list. I’m letting the other 4 ride without stops for now as their price and indicator patterns look solid, with an average gain of 6% on an average holding period of 12 calendar days.

Finally, A Few Shorts

Lee Adler

I’m adding 5 shorts to the list, against 3 buys.

Swing trade stock screens produced 106 charts with multiple buy signals as of the last two trading days of the past week. There were 80 charts with a second sell signal. That’s a significant number on both sides. Most were whipsaw signals. But I did see a few nice setups on both sides when I reviewed the screen output. Non-subscribers click here for access.
