[Premium India] Monthly Conference Call Video Recording November 2022
This is the recording from the live November 2022 Conference Call for Members of the Allstarcharts India! Before getting into individual stock ideas in India, we’re going to first start with the global macro perspective. Once we identify the direction of the underlying trends from a structural and broader view, then we’ll dive into the NIFTY Indexes on both longer-term and short-term timeframes. We want to look at Large-caps, Small-caps, and everything in between before getting into the Sector and Industries themselves like Energy, Banks, and Pharma.
This is when we finally break things down to the individual stock scenario with identified risk vs reward opportunities. That is what this is all about – aligning ourselves in the direction of the underlying trend while at the same time identifying where the risk is to make sure the potential reward is skewed exponentially in our favor. You will find that throughout this process we discuss Momentum, Fibonacci and Relative Strength. I encourage you to check out the Education Section so you know exactly where I’m coming from when you hear me mention these tools.

Is Risk Appetite on Board?
From the Desk of Steven Strazza @Sstrazza
Stocks have enjoyed a powerful rally off their summer lows, as bulls have been in control for about two months now.
A lot of technical damage has been repaired during this time.
The outlook from sentiment and seasonality assure us the environment is ripe for a bottom.
Breadth thrusts are stacking up and suggesting we could be in the early stages of a new bull market.
And risk appetite is gradually reentering the market, supporting the bullish price action.
Today, we’ll review one of our favorite intermarket relationships, the discretionary versus staples ratio.

AUD/JPY Calls in the Defense
From the desk of Steven Strazza @Sstrazza and Grant Hawkridge @granthawkridge
Defense wins championships.
It’s important to remind ourselves of this as risk continues to come off the table.
The largest stocks in the world are losing critical support levels, and even the leaders are coming under pressure. Bonds are catching a defensive bid, credit spreads are as wide as they’ve been in years, and investors are fleeing to the dollar for safety.
Meanwhile, the classic risk barometer – the AUD/JPY – is breaking to fresh lows.
This all speaks of defensive positioning.
More of a Mess
From the desk of Steven Strazza @Sstrazza and Grant Hawkridge @granthawkridge
Sideways has been the theme for most risk assets since they peaked in the first half of last year. Markets have become increasingly messy in the time since.
If we’re talking about US equities, the market is as bifurcated as it’s been in years.
All we mean by this is that depending on what group a stock is in, it could be in a nice uptrend, but it could also be in an ugly downtrend. Stocks and other risk assets are literally moving in opposite directions these days, and doing so with some serious momentum.
At the index level, you can see this split market reflected by trendless ranges.
When we look to our risk-appetite ratios and indicators for information, we’re not getting much as the vast majority are still stuck in the same ranges they’ve been in for the better part of 12-months.
So, risk assets are a mess and most of our risk indicators are also a mess. Makes sense, right?
Mixed Evidence for Risk Appetite
From the desk of Steven Strazza @Sstrazza and Grant Hawkridge @granthawkridge
There’s been very little happening on our risk checklist, as evidence for risk appetite remains split between bulls and bears.
The last time we discussed it was in our Q1 Playbook. While the list hasn’t picked a decisive direction yet, the fact that it’s such a mixed bag is information in and of itself.
It’s been an excellent roadmap for us in recent months, because just like the market — our risk checklist has also been a mess.
Let’s take a look at where we stand and discuss some of the more recent developments.
