Market Summary:
As I mentioned in several recent videos, I’ve been expecting a range and a choppy market environment, and that’s what we’ve seen over the past 4-6 weeks. The big question now is: Are we going to breakout of this range to the upside? Or is this range going to resolve itself by moving to the downside? The honest answer is I don’t know. I prefer to be patient until we get more clarity. The biggest positive is that many growth stocks continue to act well, but the biggest negative is that the weight of the market is holding them down. They key right now is to show some discipline until we see the institutions CONSISTENTLY come back into this market.

Overall, stick to the main guidelines of exposing yourself to strong stocks/strong ETFs, getting those strong entry points, and then managing your trades as best as possible. Also, always remember that no matter what your timeframe is, you have to have some form of a loss cutting discipline when a position turns against you. It can be a percentage loss, a specific dollar stop loss, or a technical level, but you must have one as part of your overall plan. I am currently about 60% invested and I’m going to continue to keep most of my positions lighter than normal until I feel a new powertrend is developing. Thank you and enjoy the rest of your weekend.
