In a recent report to ASC Institutional subscribers, the team laid out a case for strength in the Homebuilding sector as several components are approaching breakout levels from monster bases. Its relative strength vs. the S&P 500 over the past month is evidence that the year-to-date leadership from this group is likely to continue for now. [Read more…]
Under The Hood (10-02-2020)
From the desk of Steve Strazza @Sstrazza.
Welcome to our “Under The Hood” column for the week ended October 2, 2020.
What we do is analyze the most popular stocks during the week and find opportunities to either join in and ride these momentum names higher, or fade the crowd and bet against them.
We use a variety of sources to generate the list of most popular names. There are so many new data sources available that all we need to do is organize and curate them in a way that shows us exactly what we want: A list of stocks that are seeing an unusual increase in investor interest.
Whether we’re measuring increasing interest based on large institutional purchases, unusual options activity, or simply our proprietary lists of trending tickers… there is a lot of overlap.
The bottom line is there are a million ways to skin this cat. Relying on our entire arsenal of data makes us confident that we’re producing the best list each week and gives us more optionality in terms of finding the most favorable trade setups for our clients.

[Video] JC & Howard Lindzon: What Would Surprise You The Most?
This week I chat with Howard about the things that he just doesn’t think are going to happen. What can we check off? He mentions major moves in the Nasdaq and also Apple missing on a quarter or new product.
He then flips the script and asks me about what’s changed in my life since becoming a father. Tune in to find out!
Commercial Hedgers Hate Copper
From the desk of Tom Bruni @BruniCharting
In the futures markets, commercial hedgers are considered the “smart money” because they deal in a business that the asset they’re trading is related to. On the other hand, speculators are simply outsiders looking to benefit from the price movements in that asset.
Hedgers also have much deeper pockets than the typical rank and file speculator, so when they’re making extreme bets in one direction or another…we want to be paying attention.
…And right now, commercial hedgers are selling Copper like there’s no tomorrow.
[Podcast] Technical Analysis & Financial Media: A Conversation w/ Frances Horodelski
In this episode I get to chat with one of my all-time favorite journalists, Frances Horodelski. She was one of the first people to interview me on TV when I was still in my 20s and I don’t forget that. She believed in me early on. That’s really cool.
We’ve continued to do interviews together over the years but today I flip the script and ask HER the tough questions. We discuss the role of Technical Analysis in both markets and financial media. As a former Wall Street analyst herself, she brings unique perspective and experience to traditional media. This was really informative and a lot of fun!
Here is the episode in full: [Read more…]
Snap Your Fingers Break The Highs
One of our favorite opportunities that was discussed in last week’s Under the Hood segment finally triggered our entry today. And continued elevation of options premiums in out-of-the-money calls sets up a great way for us to participate in a bullish move in a limited risk fashion. [Read more…]
[Video] Introducing: The Big Mac Trade
Today we’re taking a look at a stock in the Consumer Discretionary Sector. Ticker symbol $MCD
They make burgers, fries, chicken and a variety of desserts. The food is okay, I guess. The stock is way better.
This looks like a year-long base trying to break out to new all-time highs.
We only want to be betting on this long if it is above 220. Otherwise, we can’t make that breakout argument. Our upside target is 280. [Read more…]
