Here's how I'm trading a bearish Grub Hub put diagonal...

Despite a very choppy, sideways market, our current Chaikin Power User Portfolio is mostly in the green.  We set stop losses just below the orange Chaikin Trend (2 ATR below), but only move stops up never down.   We manage stops weekly.    We buy stocks only when the Power Gauge reads very bullish, but we hold them through neutral rating periods.   We sell if our stop loss is breached or if the Power Gauge turns bearish. 

Our weekly deep dive into relative strength ratings of bellwether ETF's suggests that the US is under-performing developed Western country stocks, with the EFA leading the way. 

The relationship between bullish and bearish stocks on the large cap index is worrisome.   Driven by Chaikin Analytics Power Gauge, a mostly fundamental look at the underlying stocks in the S&P 500, the ratio is at one of the lowest points we've tracked in the past 2 years. Market technicals ALWAYS catch up with fundamentals.
