List performance was poor again last week. I’ve been in a slump lately. I’m not seeing pitches well, and my swing timing is a little off.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

Trading is a tough game. The pitches that we see are hard and often deceptive. The game has sped up. The season is long. As we age, our vision and reflexes aren’t what they were when we were younger players. I have confidence that by sticking with proven swing mechanics, we’ll eventually start making good contact and hitting home runs again. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Including picks still open at the end of the week plus those stopped out during the week, the list had an average loss of 1% with an average holding period of 13 calendar days. That compares with a loss of 0.6 % with an average holding period of 12 calendar days, for the prior week. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Screens of Friday’s closing price charts resulted in 21 stocks meeting preliminary buy side criteria versus 136 on the sell side. That compares with 20 buys and 82 sells the week before. Do I detect a trend? Non-subscribers click here for access.

Next, I counted the signals that were triggered on Friday alone. After applying these trigger filters, just 3 of the preliminary buys qualified on Friday, while 8 of the sells did. Not many, either way. After reviewing the charts, I took the pitches and didn’t swing. Non-subscribers click here for access.

List performance was poor last week despite being overwhelmingly long, consistent with the market. It might just be a matter of requiring a little patience, or it might be just that time when the market takes back some of what we took from it. Or it might be the precursor to a market reversal. Or pure chance. It happens. I can’t draw any conclusions from this action yet. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Including picks still open at the end of the week plus those stopped out during the week, the list had an average loss of 0.6 % with an average holding period of 12 calendar days. That compares with a gain of 1.3% with an average holding period of 11 calendar days, for the prior week. In other words, treading water. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Screens of Friday’s closing price charts resulted in 20 stocks meeting preliminary buy side criteria versus 82 on the sell side. That compares with 87 buys and 24 sells the week before. That’s a reversal of the recent trend but the numbers are too small to represent a broad market reversal. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Next, I counted the signals that were triggered on Friday alone. After applying these trigger filters, just 5 of the preliminary buys qualified on Friday, while 9 of the sells did. I liked 2 of the buys enough to add to the list. I added one of the sells as a short. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Two picks hit their stop prices last week. Another loser was dropped as of last Monday’s opening price. Dropping those and adding the 3 new ones will leave 12 buys and 1 short on the list for this week. Non-subscribers click here for access.

The latest screens resulted in 87 stocks meeting preliminary buy side criteria versus just 24 on the sell side. That compares with 79 buys and 18 sells the week before. Sells have all but disappeared, and buys are holding steady at a modest level.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

Next, I counted the signals that were triggered on Friday alone. After applying these trigger filters, just one of the preliminary sells qualified on Friday, while 11 of the buys did. That still does not signify broad thrust. I only liked 2 of the buys enough to add to the list. I did not add any sells.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

One pick hit its stop price last week. Another loser will be dropped based on today’s opening price. Dropping those and adding the 2 new ones, will leave 10 buys and 2 shorts on the list for this week.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

I have added or adjusted stops for several existing picks. New picks are added without stops. Risk management is assumed via multiple small positions that won’t break the bank if they go wrong.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

List performance was minimally positive last week. Including picks still open at the end of the week plus those stopped out during the week, the list had an average gain of 1.3 % with an average holding period of 11 calendar days. That compares with 2.3% with an average holding period of 18 calendar days, for the prior week. The change was mostly due to adding 8 new picks that started last week.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

No, the market isn’t plunging. I’m plunging on the buy side.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

List performance was positive last week. Including picks still open at the end of the week plus those stopped out during the week, the list had an average gain of 2.3% with an average holding period of 18 calendar days. That compared with the previous week’s average gain of 1.5% with an average holding period of 17 calendar days.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

The latest screens resulted in 79 stocks meeting preliminary buy side criteria versus only 18 on the sell side. That compares with 74 buys and 32 sells the week before. Sells have all but disappeared, and buys are holding steady at a low level.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

Next, I counted the signals that were triggered on Friday alone. After applying these trigger filters, just one of the 11 sells qualified on Friday, while 11 of the buys did. That does not signify broad thrust, but it’s a bigger number than we have seen lately. I liked 7 of the buys enough to take flyers and add to the list. The one sell that triggered had a nice ugly chart, so I will also add that one on the sell side. I will start tracking as of Tuesday this week, with Monday having been a holiday.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

Three picks hit stop prices last week. Dropping those and adding the 8 new ones, will leave 10 buys and 2 shorts on the list for this week. The 10 buys is a big number relative to the last couple of months, but consistent with the numbers in the past when the market was trending.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

I have added or adjusted stops for several existing picks. New picks are added without stops. Risk management is assumed via multiple small positions that won’t break the bank if they go wrong.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

For all picks closed out in April the average gain was 15.2% on an average holding period of 34 calendar days. Of those 7 were buys and 4 were shorts. 9 of the 11 picks closed out were profitable.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

List performance was slightly positive last week, but underperformed the market. Including picks still open at the end of the week, plus those stopped out during the week, the list had an average gain of 1.5% with an average holding period of 17 calendar days. This compares with the prior week’s drawdown of -0.4% on an average holding period of 15 calendar days. Non-subscribers click here for access.

The screening data lately has not kept up with the strength in the market averages, which are dominated by a few stocks. Non-subscribers click here for access.

The latest screens ferreted out 74 stocks that met buy side criteria on Friday before the trigger test. That was up from 32, the week before. There were just 14 sells versus 41 the week before. While the buys had a solid edge, it was not broad strength. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Next, I counted the signals that were triggered on Friday alone. After applying the trigger filters, none of the 14 sells hit their triggers on Friday, while 4 of the buys did. I liked two of them enough to add to the list and start tracking as of Monday. Non-subscribers click here for access.

With the 2 new picks and an existing pick stopped out last week, that will leave 5 buys and 2 shorts on the list for this week. 7 picks remains a low number relative to the 11 to 20 that we’ve typically had in recent months. This indicates low confidence and suggests limiting exposure. Non-subscribers click here for access.

5/6/24 For all picks closed out in April the average gain was 15.2% on an average holding period of 34 calendar days. Of those 7 were buys and 4 were shorts. 9 of the 11 picks close out were profitable. Non-subscribers click here for access.
