December 29th Market Wrap-Up

What are the best stocks for 2023? You do not have to be an analyst to try to figure that out. The best stocks for 2023 are being fully researched by every money manager around the world. They are all using the holidays to assess what their strengths and weaknesses were in 2022. They are also analyzing where they want to move funds for 2023. This is usually indicated on the first couple of trading days going into a new year. Candlestick charts immediately reveal the best stocks for 2023 by identifying where big money is placing their trades. The Candlestick Forum trains investors how to utilize the information built into a candlestick chart to identify high-probability price moves. Investor sentiment reacts the same way time after time.

December 22nd Market Wrap-Up

The first analysis before any trades are established is being able to accurately assess the overall market trend. This is where the combination of candlestick reversal signals in the use of the T line dramatically improve your evaluations. Note how the Dow produced a MorningStar signal and a close above the T line yesterday. However, although the NASDAQ and the S&P 500 formed MorningStar signals, they did not close above the T line. Today’s bearish gap down, below the previous day’s candles, was clear evidence the bears were still in control. And the T line was not going to be breached. The assumption remains that the downtrend is still in progress. This is where putting the probabilities in your favor is greatly enhanced. Scanning for short trades becomes a much higher trade probability. Utilizing the information in candlestick signals and patterns allows the candlestick investor to identify which of those bearish trade set ups will likely have the strongest bearish price moves, both in identifying the direction as well as identifying which trades may have the strongest downward price moves. Common sense aspects of candlestick analysis can be applied to charts when analyzing your existing trading strategies or using the candlestick charts as your primary trend indicators. Merry Christmas.

December 22nd Daily Market Comments

Although yesterday’s positive trading produced bullish reversal signals, MorningStar signals, in the indexes, the T line was not yet confirmed. Today’s lower trading, especially gapping down and trading below yesterday’s opens in the indexes reveal strong bullish indications. Any bullish trades require strong confirmation. Otherwise close them out and look for short positions.

Santa Claus rally? The Dow is showing the most resiliency gapping up after a spinning top off the 50 day moving average. The NASDAQ and S&P 500 are showing MorningStar signals but still below the T line. Short positions should be covered, long positions obviously working well today.

The Dow may be attempting support at the 50 day moving average. However the one consistency of the current market nature is that down trending stocks continue to move in a downtrend and bullish charts are maintaining strength. Established positions should still meet the criteria of staying above or below the T line.

December 19th Market Direction

The Candlestick Forum is an educational website that teaches investors how to use candlestick signals and patterns effectively. The first major benefit is learning how to identify the signals and patterns that have the strongest probability of producing an expected result. But there is another important element! Knowing what to do after identifying the signal or pattern. The Japanese rice traders have observed through hundreds of years of actual trade application what to expect to produce better probabilities that a candlestick signal or pattern is performing as anticipated. Learning candlestick analysis provides a much more clear evaluation of what is occurring in a price trend. Candlestick analysis is the utilization of probabilities based on hundreds of years of historic results. But investors do not have to use it as a soul-trading strategy. If you are already using somebodies trading strategy that works relatively effectively, adding candlestick charts to the analysis will greatly improve the results of an existing trading strategy. The main element when learning candlestick signals and patterns is knowing they work with a high degree of probability. Otherwise, we would not be looking at them today if they did not work. Join us for 2023. You will gain much more insight into price movement when using the graphics of investor sentiment.

The holiday weeks usually do not produce a lot of volatility or activity. This is the time of year to reflect on what you did right and what you did wrong and how to improve your investing going into the next year. Currently the biggies are trading lower continuing their downtrend. The pattern set ups are producing the best results i.e.SMMT J-hook.

The NASDAQ trading below the 50 day moving average, the S&P 500 did not support at the 50 day moving average today. Anticipate the Dow heading for the 50 day moving average. The downtrend persists, short positions are working much better than bullish positions.
