STTG Market Recap November 7, 2014 – Stock Trading To Go

Much like yesterday some early morning red numbers led to dip buyers coming in to buy as we had an unusually quiet employment report day.  Usually there is much more volatility off the jobs data – Friday the S&P 500 gained 0.03% and the NASDAQ dropped 0.13%. The Labor Department reported payrolls increased by 214,000 last month, less than the […]

STTG Market Recap August 11, 2014 – Stock Trading To Go

Indexes opened up quite strongly Monday on hopes that geopolitical tensions would lessen, rallied mid morning but lots some steam as the day went by.  There is still some work to do to get comfortable with the market right now – we’ve just seen a bounce that wiped away an extreme oversold condition.  Investors were also happy with a statement […]

STTG Market Recap August 4, 2014 – Stock Trading To Go

Stocks flip flopped in the morning Monday around unchanged but rallied throughout the afternoon as an extreme short term oversold condition we noted Friday was worked off.  It is nothing to get excited about yet if you are a bull – in fact we noted there should be a short term rally coming due to how oversold the indexes had […]

STTG Market Recap August 1, 2014 – Stock Trading To Go

It was the worst week for the S&P 500 in 2 years (-2.7%) which speaks more to how smooth things have been on that index than anything too horrible with this week’s performance.   The NASDAQ had a weak period this spring but if you recall the S&P 500 and Dow Jones had not been hit very hard at all as […]

STTG Market Recap July 28, 2014 – Stock Trading To Go

Stocks sold off moderately Monday morning but dip buyers came in yet again – a pattern we have now seen for 2 months – and indexes close near unchanged.  The S&P 500 gained 0.03% while the NASDAQ dropped 0.10%.   News flow was light; keep in mind we do have the Federal Reserve meeting Tuesday and Wednesday but they have telegraphed […]

STTG Market Recap July 18, 2014 – Stock Trading To Go

In yesterday’s recap when describing the late day selloff we wrote:
All the typical knee jerk reactions took place – U.S. Treasuries were bid up, oil and gold spiked, as did volatility etc.  How much of this is real humans trading and how much is just computers trading with each other we will soon see.
One must keep in mind how computerized […]

STTG Market Recap July 17, 2014 – Stock Trading To Go

Indexes were in a light pullback mode until news hit of the Malaysian Airlines crash, which accelerated selling significantly.  At the end of the day the S&P 500 fell 1.18% and the NASDAQ 1.41%.   This was the biggest one day drop for the S&P 500 since early April, as most of the pullbacks this spring came in the NASDAQ not […]

Bitcoin Trading : BTC/USD Technical Analysis – 4th June 2014 …

After the last couple of weeks’ surging bulls, this week has been so far, a drab affair, relatively speaking ,with the 50% resistance zone proving to be much stronger than I had expected, although if we’re to zoom into the four hour time frame, there are some technical nuggets to be found. Over the weekend, I posted the […]

STTG Market Recap June 2, 2014 – Stock Trading To Go

A perfect day for the bulls as the indexes rested by going sideways.  Going sideways to digest large gains is a much more healthy situation than falling back to lose 40-60-80% of recent gains.  Further an early morning dip was bought aggressively which is also bullish action.  So the change in complexion that started nearly 2 weeks ago remains in […]
