As Market Technicians, we are in the data visualization business. We’re looking to visualize the behavior of market participants by analyzing price and its derivatives via traditional charts, spreadsheets, and other methods.
Today we want to introduce a slightly different way we like to visualize market behavior as we may begin incorporating it into our analysis more often if you find it helpful.
Without further ado, let’s check out some “Bubble Charts.” [Read more…]

The major nifty market indexes continue to chop around, creating more failed moves on the upside and downside.
Today we’re going to take a look at a few failed breakouts that could serve as very tactical setups on the short side or simply further evidence of the type of choppy environment we’re in.

At the beginning of each week, we publish performance tables for a variety of different asset classes and categories along with commentary on each.
Looking at the past helps put the future into context. In this post, we review the relative strength trends at play and preview some of the things we’re watching in order to profit in the weeks and months ahead.
We discussed markets remaining more or less a mixed bag over recent weeks/months. At the same time, we’ve pointed out how the weight of the evidence continues to tilt gradually in the direction of the bulls, particularly due to the action we’ve observed in key risk assets.
This week, we finally witnessed a meaningful rotation into reflationary assets as yields rallied to their highest levels since June. We also saw a noticeable strengthening from cyclicals.
We think this kind of rotation is a very healthy development for markets.

Welcome to our “Under The Hood” column for the week ended October 23, 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.

Thanks to everyone for participating in this Week’s Mystery Chart.
We went “bottom fishing” with this week’s selection, posting a mystery chart that featured a potential bottoming pattern complete with a failed breakdown, fast move higher, and a successful retest of support. These are all bullish characteristics that point to a higher likelihood of this being a true trend reversal.
As we noted earlier this week, bottom fishing is a risky game. But, if we play the bottoming process responsibly, the market could offer us some delicious rewards.
Let’s dive right in…
