Technical Analysis:
- Massive move yesterday considering the market was in a limit down scenario on the futures market in the early morning hours.
- Reversal saw defense, biotechs, banks and infrastructure soar with a Donald Trump Presidency.
- One area of concern is the massive volume spike seen on SPDRs S&P 500 Trust (SPY) as these isolated volume spikes tend to lead to major market reversals immediatly thereafter. See Brexit volume/price activity for an example.
- Declining trend-line off of the Deptember highs was broken yesterday on S&P 500 (SPX) as was the 50-day moving average.
- Technology stocks are showing some stagnation with the Trump victory.
- Yesterday had extremely poor breadth as there were nearly just as many declining issues as there were advancing ones.
- It is a near certainty at this point, that the Federal Reserve will be raising interest rates at their next meeting in December.
- CBOE Market Volatility Index (VIX) was pummelled yesterday with a 213.3% decline, and dropping from the highs of the day in the 21's, all the way down to 14.38.
My Trades:
- Covered SPY at $215.43 for a 1.2% loss.
- Added two new swing trades to the portfolio yesterday.
- Will look to add 1-2 new swing-trades to the portfolio today.
