Tonight's VantagePoint Prediction is of the NASDAQ (@NQ).   As you can see, their prediction for Monday (+/- 3 days) is upward from Friday's close. Last week's prediction came true on Monday with a sharp 180 point drop in the NQ followed by a choppy week. Today's MAVs are pretty much sideways neither calling for recovery nor more downside action. Please check MoneyMentor.com daily after 4pm PST to see the daily predictions.

Check my  MoneyMentor home page of this website daily to keep up with the daily predictions from VantagePoint. I post them every day.

While this prediction is good for tomorrow, wouldn't you want to know every day of the week? Of course, the best thing is to run VantagePoint  every afternoon, not just on Sunday nights, as I do for this newsletter. And you can always look at the home page of MoneyMentor to see the current VP chart.


Last Week I Said

Last Sunday I said the Dow could be going on down to the 38.3% line if it broke the 23.6% Fib line. And that's what it did. Currently it is sitting right on the line at 35,911. With markets closed tomorrow we shall see what happens Tuesday. 

Here is an interesting article: "Why Most Traders Lose Money". It's good to know what to look out for. This one from Jeff Swanson.

This week I am keeping track of HUM. It made a dramatic move a week ago and I'm interested in following the aftermath.


SunnyBands Implications

Dow Jones

The Dow, which consists of 30 industrial stocks, not the high tech ones that I like to trade, has set new all-time highs only to retreat from them. Futures on the Dow are up about 30 points tonight. That is encouraging, but then again it is Sunday. We still have to see what Tuesday brings.  

Tomorrow is Martin Luther King day, so it's a bank holiday and the market is closed. There are no interesting reports due tomorrow. Tuesday should be telling, giving us an indication of where price is heading. ES Futures just opened today sharply up, maybe because we are off tomorrow, maybe because of bullishness. We shall see on Tuesday.

The Gold DMA is on top of the Purple still, as you can see from the purple and gold dots  (Who''s On Top) at the bottom of the chart, speaking to more bullishness, but the DMA_H is showing mixed signals turning red and then gold and red and then gold. It could go either way. Further move down Tuesday could be a sign of more to come while a move up on Tuesday would point to folks buying dips, causing the market to move higher.

S&P 500 (ES)

The ES was weak this week though up and down the net result was largely sideways. The DMA is flat to pointing downward and the Who's On Top dots are still Gold meaning that the Gold DMA line is on top of the Purple. The DMA_H is showing red, giving a short signal last week. I think we have further to go on the down side, but again, I trade 5-min charts not the daily.

Since this is a weekly missive, we miss the daily changes to the indicators. Send me an email if you are interested in daily updates. I can have them sent to you directly from my trading platform to your email or your phone. Or better yet, order SunnyBands and DMA_H for your own computer. Of course, like all my products, they work on intraday charts just a well.  All symbols, all timeframes.


To get a long-term perspective, let's look at the various positions called for by the consensus of timeframes. Note that the timeframes are colorful! The different time frames are mostly bullish right now, but turning down. Not a promising sign. Remember, I trade a 5-min chart and it has been short this week during the run-downs. Price is currently above the VWAP. That's a bullish sign at the moment.

 TimeFrame  Position
 Monthly  bullish /\
 Weekly  bullish /\
 Daily  bullish /\
 15-Minute  bullish //
 1-Minute  bearish \\

It really helps to have these indicators for your own, to take your trading to the next level.

Stocks

In this section, I like to take a peek at a few of my favorite stocks. I trade what I know. I use Amazon in real life, so I trade AMZN. I use Verizon as my phone carrier, so I trade VZ. I use Google all the time. I use Microsoft software so I trade MSFT and so on. Let's first look at the RadarScreen view of a few stocks:

The table above is my main research tool. It not only has my DMA_H predictions but also shows my PHW indicator (yellow) at the far right  and 3 short-term averages calculated with my DMA smoothing function. I call this one RedLite-GreenLite

When I sort on PHW from highest to lowest tells me which stocks are the most tradable. A stock that just moves slowly from A to B is an investment, not a tradeable (to me). I'm looking for wide swings from which to profit, not just buy-and-hold. This is how I decide what stocks to buy and which to trade. 

This week the stocks are sorted by the DMA Direction (Dirn). On the upper part of the screen you see a grouping of Bearish stocks that are turning up. These are the ones I am watching for entry points. Although lots in the charts portends movement to the downside you can see here that lots can also point to Bullishness.


To me trading is not about being right! There are lots of advisors and stock pickers out there who boast about getting MSFT at $32 and holding it for gazillions in profit. My trading style is to specialize in a few things and be good at them. The stock pickers never tell you how many they picked right, only the few that were the big winners. I specialize in a handful of stocks for the long swings and the EMini futures for intraday trading.


It is the columns just past the middle of the RadarScreen window show a colorful area that tells me at a glance the configuration of my DMA_H on all the stocks in this portfolio. (This indicator is called DMA_R_H, meaning DynamicMovingAverage RadarScreen Histogram.) Green Bearish \/ means the stock has been bearish but is now turning up. Purple \\ means primarily bearish. (These are the colors in the DMA_H and SunnyBands DMA. So, "purple" means Purple is on top in the DMA.) Gold Bullish // means the stock is moving upward. Red Bullish /\ means the stock has been going up but has now turned downward.

Of course, you can sort on any or several of these columns with this indicator. Color coding things makes it easy for me to spot opportunities at a glance. If you would like this indicator for your TS RadarScreen click here.

From this look (above) at the RadarScreen (like a spreadsheet) I can sort by SDMA, which shows me all the bullish stocks on top with Dir showing me which are moving aggressively upward and which have been moving up but have now turned down or the PHW which shows me the most tradable stocks. Call me, I'll explain it. 1-760-908-3070 PST. Or, better yet, email me your TS Customer Nbr and I'll set you up with a FREE 7-day trial.


Click Here to see and listen to the DMA_H Live with BingTicks! ALL NEW: BingTicks has been upgraded to talk! In my voice it tells you your current position in the market, or your strategy's position. It says "Flat," "Long," or "Short" and the number of contracts. I wanted it to help me keep my focus on what my chart/position is doing. It works wonders as an attention focusing device. And, it still bings and bongs with each tick of the market. Get it here: BingTicks.


HUM

Wanna see something exciting? Take a look at this next chart: Humana (HUM)! It dropped 121 points in a huge gap down--from 472 to a low of 351. On news that they were signing fewer Medicaid customers than expected this year. The only reason I looked at this one was that a client called me and said, "What happened to my Humana!" So I took a look. Wow! Nevertheless it put in a strong recovery in the days that followed, finishing the week up 43 points. The last 2 days were full of indecision, as it moved slightly down to sit on the Fib line that supported it. If it moves up Tuesday I'm a buyer.

I'm now watching this one for buying opportunities. BUT, never try to catch a falling knife! Nevertheless, the street wisdom is that Gaps will be Filled. Price on HUM is below the LOB which took a dive right along with it, and even dropped through the Attractor eminating form the lows of Feb 2021. 


AMZN, is still the stock with the highest PHW, with Bookings Holdings (BKNG) second, with AMZN under the DMA (with Purple on top) and moving below the Attractor that lies at 3,292.79). The lower edge of the channel lies at 3,186. Price is currently at 3,239. As it approaches the lower edge of the yellow channel I'm a buyer again. 

AMZN can't seem to get out of the channel it has been in "forever." The reason it is the most tradable is that it keeps churning back and forth within the channel offering both long and short opportunities. I'm hoping this one is going to se up an up-cycle taking the general market upward.

Price is below the 3 Simple MAVs I watch: 13, 55, and 200. Last week I said: "These suggest that price is going to touch the lower limit of the rectangle at the very least, if not moving on down below that."  I would be surprised (and it wouldn't be the first time) if price drops out of the channel. Typically AMZN just goes to the bottom of the channel and back up to the top. Because it is currently at the bottom, I'm ready to buy back in if price moves up, but won't touch it if it drops beneath the channel. The DMA_H is showing green with the Purple DMA line on top. This could be a great place to buy in, but only if confirmed by price. 


Cathy Wood's 5-year projection for TSLA (below) is 4,000 at this juncture. She may raise or lower her projection, but this is it currently. And I believe her. It will split again, but the pre-split projection is 4,000. 

TSLA has closed up on Friday after a mixed week, to land at 1,049. Still above 1,000 it remains my favorite stock and my largest holding. For me this is a long-term investment. I believe we will continue to turn to carbon-neutral technologies and electric vehicles. I have not yet purchased their vehicle because I'm waiting for better batteries. I would want to get to LA and back on one charge before it is viable technology in my mind. When the batteries are better I expect this stock to really take off.    


Eight weeks ago I said I thought ARKK price would tick on down to the LOB and possibly beyond. It has done just that. Price is now below the LOB and even below its lower Attractor at 80.24. It is very difficult to meet expectations after you have the phenomenal year she had last year. I get a list of her trades every day by email. You can too by going to www.ARK-invest.com. I think she over-trades and should consider some longer-term holdings. The Purple DMA line is still on top, telling me she has futher to go on the downside.

I wish her only the best. She's a very smart woman. But, I think she needs SunnyBands, don't you?  


MSFT penetrated the DMA and dropped down and shortly through the Attractor at 306 (that I mentioned last week). It bounced up a bit on Friday and is now barely on top of the Attractor. The DMA has Purple on top but the DMA_H is trying to turn green. If the overall market continues to sour, so will MSFT. Inflationary pressures could exacerbate an economic downturn that would affect us all.


Buy the DMA_H and SunnyBands for yourself. They are life savers. I totally rely on them for my own trading. You can have these  indicators for yourself. They are a great trading tool! And now I have a new indicator that plots a series of colored dots letting you see at a glance Who's On Top, Purple or Gold. Here's what it looks like. It is the series of Purple and Gold dots at the bottom of the chart.

BitCoin, Etherium, Gold, Bonds

BitCoin 

BitCoin is still languishing between the LOB and LIB, though it is moving up somewhat this weekend. The pundits that send me volumes of email are all touting BitCoin (and other coins). If that is any guide price should take off and make new highs in the future. But who knows when? Right now it is sitting on a strong Attractor acting as support and has dropped as low as the 76.4% Fib line. That "should" hold it for the near-term. But again, who knows? 

I haven't held any BitCoin. Instead, I have had ETHUSD (Etherium) since its low in May. I'm still holding a nice profit in ETHUSD and intend to hold it for years just to see what happens. Price is currently at 3,333 and is above the LIB and heading for the DMA Midline, which lies at 3,613. Purple is on top but the DMA_H turned bullish on 1/11/22 at 3,232. I'm still holding for much higher prices.

Gold

Gold is still flat now but has risen from last week, now at 1,814. It is sitting in the middle of a Pennant formation showing sideways movement.  The DMA Midline is flat, and has been for months. I am giving a talk for TimingResearch on 1/25/22 where the speakers will be presenting their Outlook for 2022. One of the charts I will be analyzing is Gold. Register and Tune In. It should be fun.

Bonds

Bonds are flat on the week but down in this afternoon's trading. In fact, price is touching a strong Attractor at 154-21/32. And about to dip below it. Fed is reducing it's bond buying. Are they also selling? If so, this could put pressure on price as they tighten interest rates and try to head off inflation. True inflation is about 10% but they report the CPI without groceries and gasoline--two of the average human's expenses which have risen dramatically. Even so, the reported 7% is bad enough. Salaries have risen due to the Great Resignation, but not enough to cover this inflationary growth.

SunnyBands - SunnyBands are a extension of my DMA. The two lines above and two lines below the purple and gold DMA alert me to where the market is going. They are constructed from ATR bands on either side of the DMA, which is my proprietary moving average that avoids most of the whipsaw action experienced by other moving averages. 

DMA_H - Sunny"s DynamicMovingAverage in histogram format,  using sophisticated math to smooth out the whipsaws.

Of course, my  indicators work on any symbol, any time frame. In my own trading I use 1-min & 5-min charts of the ES.
