Daily picks, 07/30: They're coming outta the woodwork!
I had a hunch we’d break out on Thursday. We didn’t. In fact, the market went down. Oh well, I rely mainly on my picks anyway, and with only one long – that performed poorly – there wasn’t...
Daily picks,07/29: One at a time
I've been noticing that most of the picks lately have been working (more or less, and depending on your parameters. That is, longs generally go up; shorts go down. So, I hope to keep the streak alive...

In the current "Ask the Chartman" I briefly define what I mean by "oversold." Look no further than the chart below, thoujgh, to see an illustration. Of course, "oversold" usually leads to some sort...
Market looking to turn up.
Last week was particularly nasty for the market as the gap up opening on Monday represented the highs for the week. After that, it was straight down until Friday. But on that day, the market seemed...
Promise on the horizon?
Let's face it: the bulls have struggled a bit the past few days. Nothing serious, but enough non-action to have them questioning if the move was over. Of course, the bears didn't get much of a break...
