Let’s make this real easy.

After inflation data, speculation on the next moves from the Fed, fears of recession, calls for soft landing and so forth and so on, I want, no crave, simplicity.

Calling on my Economic Modern Family, we got 2 of them offering us the easy answers of what comes next in the overall market.

Our dear Granny Retail XRT will tell us a lot after the economic data already out, and then the retail sales and earnings reports.

This is a weekly chart.

Pretty clear-

With price sitting right on the 200-weekly moving average, if XRT closes above it or below it, next moves will be obvious.

For those playing along, that number is 73.50 - write it on a post it and paste it to your computer screen.

Transportation IYT.

Charles Payne asked me about it on his show this week (clip below).

IYT directly ties in with retail-if people are buying, goods are moving.

This is a weekly chart.

With price sitting right on the 50-weekly moving average, if IYT closes above it or below it, next moves will be obvious.

For those playing along, that number is 64.25-write it on a post it and paste it to your computer screen.

Yes friends, with some patience and a plan with real numbers, you can do this!
