Everyone always wants to talk about how high the stock they just bought is going, or how much money they’re going to make on a new position. “JC I think Apple goes to a Trillion Dollar Market Cap!” or “JC Bitcoin is going to $100,000!”. These are things I hear frequently, or at least some sort of variation of these comments.
This is perfectly normal behavior. We should not be afraid of it. But more importantly, I think we need to be aware of the implications of these feelings. The thing is, once we are already in a position, our emotions get involved. When our stress levels rise, we act emotionally, rather than logically. This is how we’re hard-wired. It would be abnormal for us not to think this way. But again, the important thing is to be conscious of it and not let it dictate our actions.

The Financial Services, Energy, IT, and Consumer Goods sectors remain the leaders, while smaller sectors like Pharma and Media continue to lag the broader market. Our chart of the week is sticking with that theme by looking at the Nifty Metals and Nifty Infrastructure indexes, which collectively represent roughly 9% of the Nifty 500. Although these sectors have been consolidating near all-time highs for most of this year, recent developments suggest they may be vulnerable to further downside.

This is such a treat for me. I get to go to India to talk about Technical Analysis with hundreds of really smart and eager to learn investors from all over the country. The biggest investor conference of the year starts on May 24th and I will be the first presentation of the event. The 7th annual Traders Carnival will be Asia’s largest 3 day residential conference and I could not be more excited to participate.
I was lucky enough to visit India for the first time this January. I was blown away by the experience. We had about 200 people at an event at Bloomberg in Mumbai where I was the keynote speaker. The enthusiasm for Technical Analysis was amazing. I’ve never seen anything like it. [Read more…]

As Technicians we like to use the phrase “the bigger the base, the higher in space” when talking about breakouts from consolidations. Long periods of indecisive price action build a lot of potential energy that is then released once a stock breaks out of its range. This applies to any asset class on any timeframe because the psychology behind the pattern is exactly the same. We’ve written about bases before and they’re common in our work, so click here if you’re interested in learning more about this pattern. [Read more…]

Long periods of indecisive price action build a lot of potential energy that is then released once a stock breaks out of its range. This applies to any asset class on any timeframe because the psychology behind the pattern is exactly the same. The weight of the evidence continues to suggest we want to be long equities, so I’ve taken a look through the Nifty Smallcap 250 and identified some of the best bases that are either breaking out or look poised to over the intermediate-term.

The Indian Financial Services sector is broken down into three formal sector indices: The Nifty Financial Services index, the Nifty Bank index, and the Nifty Public Sector (PSU) Bank index. Both the Nifty Financial Services and Nifty Bank index have been showing great leadership, sitting just off their all-time highs on both an absolute and relative basis, however, the Nifty Public Sector Bank index has not participated to the same extent.
