There is a Sell signal for NDX, and a bearish divergence (dSell) for SPX. So, we see a significant turn for the worse now. More on that in my daily charts overview on X.

Stock positions:

FLEX was closed at a 5% loss and has been moved to the completed trades list. The stock ended the day near $100, so we avoided a much bigger loss. This shows the merit of cutting losses without delay.
BMRN, our new spBuy entry, opened at $54.75 and ended the day with a small gain. Not too bad on a nasty down day in the markets. Defensive names did ok, while the hyped up sectors crashed.

MoM turns back down for RUT, which means a bearish continuation in the small caps.

Stock positions:

FLEX dropped suddenly and is giving a Sell signal. We will get out and take the small loss at the Open today. The stock is still in bullish trend, so if you are in for the longer haul then the stock can still be kep on that basis. It all depends on your strategy.
We will be adding BMRN on a spBuy signal today, also buy at Open. I will post the setup chart on X.

We have NDX at risk of going into bearish mode. The cross-currents between the sectors and major US indexes continue.

Stock positions:

DECK is on a standard Buy signal and makes it into the bullish mode category, which is an important step for spBuy entries. Depending on how the markets act we probably still close it out as soon as MoM peaks. I would prefer to see a few more positions make it into bullish mode, but we can only trade what comes.
An observant reader asked why we do mostly spBuy entries in recent months. The reason is that the number of stocks in bullish mode has been weak, so there are fewer good Buy signals to take. And with the SPX largely going sideways since June, we can still do swing trades on oversold stocks and that's what spBuy signals are for. The standard Buy signals are meant for trend following strategies and thus work best when there is a trend to follow.
