Sell signal for NDX. We keep seeing this constant hesitation and cross-currents, as I have been pointing out for weeks. This is a tricky environment. Some kind of catalyst may be needed to get us out of this.

Stock positions:

Only a few remaining positions. XYL is up 12% and may turn double green soon. PFE is off to a good start too.
DOW is up about 10% since our latest spBuy entry. It is not far from its RevL and if it turns to bullish mode, then the risk would be gone from this trade.
AA is not doing so well, but MoM still points up and we decided to hold on after the stock took a dip on acquisition news.

SPX and NDX are in bullish mode, but not going up much. RUT stays in bearish mode, and is not going down. Typical for a market standstill.

Stock positions:

TRMB was closed at a 2% loss and has been moved to the completed trades list.
That's all we do. We keep taking chances and cut the losses. What remains will produce some good wins. The market is not always in a "giving" mood. In a sideways chop there are fewer good trending moves to be had. We have to accept that.
Today we will add PFE, which is on a standard Buy signal. This is another defensive name. We will add it at the Open.

We have a spBuy+ signal for Bonds TLT today. The 84 level is major multi-year support, as I have pointed out in my weekly charts.

Stock positions:

There is a Sell signal for TRMB, so that's another position that will be closed at today's Open.
There are more Sell signals than Buy signals, so we wait for new entry points.
