Market action was pretty much as expected last week. Market is trying to recover and close to making a double top. With a couple more days of lunar Green Period to go the Nasdaq could add another 20 points or so, but I would use it as an opportunity to sell. A weak Green Period…

We finally got some downside action last week. Hopefully you have used our advise not to buy this Green Period. The reason not to buy was probably clear for the users of our LunaticTrader program. This was the LunaticTrader chart for February: Around 17 – 19 February there was a rare cluster of lunar and…

The Nasdaq did climb back to 2750, as we indicated last week, then fell steeply on Friday. We have been warning for an imminent downturn, as indicated on the charts. This could well be the start of a multi-month slide. We have come a long way since last August, but we need to remember that…

We finally got some downturn in the stock market. The Nasdaq has lost 14 points in the most recent Red Period. We remain at a critical juncture in many charts. It looks like last week’s break out to the upside is failing, and we are now sitting on important support as you can see in…
