Stock positions:

We will be adding VMI on a spBuy signal at today's Open. The stock is still in weak bullish trend and has a positive R value.
In your own trading you can always try to buy spBuy candidates on weakness, by putting in a bid below the current price. For the purpose of this trading journal we keep it simple.

Stock indexes stay in bearish mode. So we err on the side of caution. Oil $USO is still double green, be it weak bullish, so we will use this to add an energy stock (see below).

Stock positions:

We will be adding AR on a standard Buy signal at today's Open. The weekly RevL is at $37.11, so it wouldn't take much for this stock to go double green if Oil prices keep rising.
It's not a time to be bold, but I always keep taking a few chances when my number of positions is low. Sooner or later we will add more aggressively when a more significant tradeable bottom is on the charts.

Gold gives a Sell signal, which means another failed rally. Ongoing downtrend, as we keep pointing out in our weekly charts overview.

Stock positions:

Still a wait.
NFLX was entered on a spBuy++ signal and is closing in on its RevL. If it goes on to a standard Buy signal then it would take an important hurdle.

Bitcoin and gold are only just above their RevL and that means their recent rally attempt is sputtering.

Stock positions:

BSX is on a Buy signal after a signifcant decline. We will add it at today's Open.

MoM has come down into the neutral zone (-3 to +3) for major stock indexes. This is where MoM can bottom out and set up a new upswing. That's something to watch this week.

Stock positions:

We stay patient and manage the few remaining positions we have.

Stock indexes stay in bearish mode with SPX and NDX hitting new lows for the month.

Stock positions:

I would remain patient here and wait for better opportunities to add new positions. Depending on what happens we may even have to close out the few remaining stocks. This is one of the things that took me a long time to learn: knowing when not to trade.
