[Options Premium] Which Way From Here? How About Sideways?

January 9, 2019

The debate seems to be raging between Bulls and Bears as to what's happening right now. The Bulls are declaring THE bottom is in and we're going up from here. The Bears are smugly observing what they think is just another dead cat bounce on our way to lower prices. Who's right?

What if they are both wrong?

Ms. Market loves to frustrate the largest amount of participants she can, as often as she can. And it seems to me the best way to frustrate the most people right now would be for U.S. stocks to tighten up and grind sideways for a little while. With that in mind, we have a nice ETF candidate to sell some delta neutral premium in while the next market direction sorts itself out.

How US Dollar Weakness Will Impact Stocks

January 8, 2019

In the final Chart of the Week for 2018, we looked at the US Dollar reaching a key upside objective and then rolling over to finish the year on a sour note. I started out my Q1 2019 Playbook emphasizing the importance of the US Dollar Index in 2019 and I think we're already seeing the implications of a weaker Dollar. I also think this trend is likely to remain in place.

The way we saw it, if the US Dollar were to just break through these levels, without even acknowledging it, then there is most likely a severe flight to safety away from stocks and that's why the Dollar is getting bid up. The counter-argument there is that if the Dollar is weakening, stocks would most likely do well in that environment. That has been our thesis coming into the year.

[Options Premium] Going Long Abroad (sort of)

January 7, 2019

So far, the Christmas Eve low in U.S. stocks is holding. Boy, wouldn't that have a nice ring to it if it sticks and stocks eventually return to new all time highs? I'm not saying it will, but that sure would be interesting.

In the past week, stocks across the board firmed up. But I'm not one to put too much weigh on the first partial week of trading activity to ring in the New Year. I think this coming week will give us a better indication of where the path of least resistance is.

So while I'm not yet convinced it is safe to buy here in the U.S., there is some tempting mean reversion happening in Latin America that has us interested.

[Premium] Stocks We're Buying In January

January 6, 2019

Vacation is over and January is in full gear. Over the holidays we had our downside targets hit in the S&P500, Dow Jones Industrial Average (23,350), Dow Jones Transportation Average (9300), Nasdaq100 (6150), and Russell2000 ETF (129). Now, just because these levels were achieved, doesn't mean we can't go substantially lower.

However, in this post we're focused on the current mean reversion we're seeing in stocks around the globe and how to profit from it. We'll worry about later this year later this year.

Here Are The IBD 50 Stocks We're Buying

January 5, 2019

From the desk of Tom Bruni @BruniCharting

Earlier today we uploaded a post outlining the case for some mean reversion in Canadian Equities, as well as the stocks we're buying to take advantage of that thesis. The same pattern that can potentially drive those stocks higher is also present in the IBD 50 ETF FFTY, so in this post we're outlining the IBD 50 stocks with the best reward/risk.

First let's take a look at the ETF itself, which has fallen 35% since October and recently undercut support as momentum diverged. If prices are above 26.75, this failed breakdown and bullish momentum divergence setup remains intact, targeting former support near 32.

Here Are The Canadian Stocks We're Buying

January 5, 2019

From the desk of Tom Bruni @BruniCharting

In late November we wrote about the best long and short setups in the TSX 60, and our winners offset those trades that were quickly proven incorrect. In today's environment we're seeing potential for mean reversion in several areas of Canada's stock market, so we're going to focus on the best reward/risk setups on the long side.

First let's start with the sectors and indexes to identify what areas of the market we're likely to find individual stock ideas.

At the broader-market level, the Equal-Weight TSX 60 is attempting to confirm a failed breakdown and bullish momentum divergence by closing above 135.05, which would signal potential upside toward 143.25.

[Options Premium] A Friendly Teller

January 4, 2019

We're headed back to our friendly neighborhood bank teller at JP Morgan Chase. She seems to like handing us cash. Twice she has been quite generous to us and the post-Christmas bounce in shares of $JPM gives us extra interest in coming back for a third helping.
