Stock Market
We started to sell off today, but once again we had buyers somehow come in and get the S&P flat. Never fails.

Keep an eye on TQQQ tomorrow and buy at the open if up. Weathered today well.

LABD faltered after hours. Keep an eye on it still. Same with that lousy ol UVXY which will probably have a 20% up day soon enough.
Foreign Markets

We started out well with RUSS, BZQ, but they faltered. Should have probably kept a stop on BZQ and maybe taken the 1% for 1/2 shares on RUSS. See what tomorrow brings.

Interest Rates

Been leaning and still leaning TMF.

Energy

Will wait on the oil and Nat Gas before making a call, or the green weekly. Only speculation at present.

Precious Metals and Mining Stocks

The USD/JPY fell below 112 but then popped above again, but gold and silver and the miners had a good day overall. Little weakness end of day is all. Might take some profit on USLV because of the number of day son the hot list.

Hot Corner (the biggest movers – 3% or more – or new ETFs that are green on the weekly – those in bold are consecutive days in the Hot Corner):

UGAZ, DRIP

Cold Corner (the biggest moved lower 3% or more that are green on the weekly and or weekly/monthly or turned red on the weekly – those in bold are consecutive days in the Cold Corner):

DGAZ, GUSH, DSLV (careful for a pullback in USLV tomorrow)

Green Weekly’s

These are the ETFs that have turned green on the weekly and the dates they turned green. This is used for tracking your percentage gains so you know when to take profit for each ETF per the Trading Rules profit taking guidelines. These green weekly’s work as you can see from the %Gain/Loss tables. You won’t get the exact high with your trade but you will also be out typically well before they start to fall again or turn red on the weekly. Your best way to profit with the service is stick with the green weekly trend and take profit while using a trailing stop on remaining shares. Also, if these green ETFs are up for the day at the open, they offer the best scalping opportunities. I am always fine tuning this section so if there is confusion at all, email me and be specific and I’ll be happy address.

I know I have said this many times but it is worth repeating; If you stick with the green weekly trades your odds of profit increase as there is more risk with the day trades. I call the day trades with the intent of catching some runners, so will get a few 1% stop outs but eventually catch the 5% to 10% or more runners.  The important part of the list below is that the longer the ETF stays on the list (the one’s at the top of the list by Entry Date) the more likely it is to turn red on the weekly and the opposite ETF comes into play as a long.
