Hey Market Pilot, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! I hope you all are enjoying whatever special time you prefer to celebrate. I wish that were the market right now, with us in the middle of a Santa Claus rally, but the most we have gotten so far is some bouncing. Right now, the markets are … Read more

Hey Market Pilot, We continue to see the markets work themselves lower on the back of significant news and economic developments. Omicron (a Covid-19 variant) seems to be getting politicians panicked again and talk of lockdowns is increasing. The “Build Back Better” plan is on hold. Tapering has doubled. And there will most likely be … Read more

Hey Market Pilot, Wednesday was Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) day and the market was apparently waiting with bated breath for what members had to say. While they did double the size of the tapering, the rest of the statement was largely dovish. They communicated that they were willing to be accommodative based on what … Read more

Hey Market Pilot, The market pullback from the other week also pulled down a lot of tickers. Now that might have been a surprise coming from some of the stronger stocks, but I am going to show you a strong point of the Moxie Indicator™ that can prepare you for such a move. The “Inverse … Read more

Hey Market Pilot, I’m having trouble finding good names to trade. Poor breadth is probably the reason. I’m looking at how many stocks are over moving averages such as their 20, 50, or 200 daily simple moving average (SMA). This reveal the current condition of the market beneath what the index says.

It took some time, but the move finally happened last week. However, instead of … Read more

Hey Market Pilot, I don’t think it is much of a surprise to most of us to hear that Omicron, a new Covid-19 variant, has made it to the shores of America. By the time we discovered and heard about it from Africa, it was already on the other continents. It was simply a matter … Read more

Hey Market Pilot, Last week I wrote about how the S&P 500 (SPY) finally got under its hourly 50 simple moving average (SMA) with the hourly Moxie Indicator™ below zero. This is the negative setup that I was expecting for the markets to move lower, but I didn’t expect it to happen on the day … Read more

Hey Market Pilot, We got a little fireworks show in the market to start Thanksgiving week. With Monday and Tuesday being volatile and hammering to the downside, support was found near the daily 21 exponential moving average (EMA) and the fear has subsided going into the actual holiday. We aren’t out of the woods yet, … Read more

Hey Market Pilot, The S&P 500 (SPY) and Nasdaq (QQQ) kept moving up last week, but I am concerned that they are not telling the true story. It seems those indexes are being led higher by a few outsized names. While they look good on the surface, the rest of the market appears to be … Read more
