Stock indexes stay double green and on pP signals. They look overextended and the mood could turn any day. Half of the SPX stocks are actually in bearish mode, so only a few sectors are pushing the indexes to new records. That's tricky.

Stock positions:

ANET was closed with a 4% gain and has been moved to the completed trades list.
IEX is showing a bearish divergence (dSell). We will use it to take the profit on this trade.
As a replacement we will try to add AJG on weakness, at $200 or better. The stock is on a spBuy+ signal with MoM is still coming down, so we use a limit order.
