macro-monday

Despite the recent strength in the market, the breadth is narrow and our market posture remains market neutral- negative potential as price of the SPY remains below a falling Chaikin Trend.  As you can see in the charts below, the bull/ bear ratio remains weak at 0.29. We continue to see the number of bearish stocks increase at a quicker pace than bullish additions. As far as the SPY Secors, Healthcare, communications are the only sectors with positive bull / bear ratios.  Tech is the best of the worst. Lastly, when it comes to relative strength vs the market on a six month lookback, gold, bond and currencies continue to outperform and signal better relative performance in the near-term.  Watch todays video to see how we use the Chaikin Analytics app to help us develop our macro opinion.

ETF Thursday

This week we managed the country 1, country 2 and macro portion of our simulated ETF portfolio.  As a reminder, we started this portfolio just before the 2018 Q4 pullback.  We have manged to stay in the game using our rules alongside the Chaikin Analytics platform.  Granted its paper money, but we feel  validated in our approach and more prepared in our personal trading and decision making.  Particularly so when it comes to our delta neutral holdings. We  were able to manage a small portfolio of undefined risk though an historic pullback.  While we are not out of the woods yet, we are still down about $900
(papermoney) Breakeven is within sight. We don't play to break even but given the environment and events we just lived through, we'll count it as a win!   This week we added to our top three macro holdings, $TLT, GLD and $IEF.   We also added $QQQ to our Country Level 1 holdings.   Watch todays video to see how we manage a simulated ETF portfolio using our own set rules alongside the Chaikin App.

relative strength wednesday

Our relative strength Wednesday  analysis once again shows  defensives leading the charge, however we did notice positive money flow  in virtually every ETF we track.   Performing exceptionally well is XLV.   Price of the XLV is now above a rising short and long term moving average with positive money flow.  Watch today's video to see how we use Chaikin Analytics to find relative strength in this crazy market.

Macro Monday

.  Once again the data tells us that the  extraordinary rally off the March lows has  been extremely narrow.   The rally has yet to produce significant improvement to the underlying fundamentals of the names that are contained within the indices.  The Bull - Bear ratio remains weak, unable to reach anything more than a .30 - .40 which is a shadow of its former self. Any underlying fundamental strength exists within the ETFs is in Healthcare and to some extent, tech.   As far as relative strength is concerned gold, bonds and currencies outperform all other assets.  Compared to the rest of the world China is showing more resilient relative Strength against our benchmark with is the SPY.

relative strength wednesday

Our weekly Relative Strength analysis once again helped convince us in our mild-bearish posture. We see no relative strength in cyclicals, defensives are leading the way.   As expected, virtually sector is overbought.  Very overbought. 
In addition to our RS work, we spent a few minutes with the Chaikin Analytics screener looking for possible bearish entry opportunities in ETFs.  
Watch todays video to see how we use Chaikin ANalytics to hunt for Relative strength and how we utilize the screener based on our  market posture.

macro-monday

ollowing a short & strong week for the market, we kick-off a new week with our macro-monday analysis.  While the bull v bear ratio has improved slightly, we are very cautious and believe a move back lower is probable. Defensives including utilities and Health Care continue to show strength, as noted in our sector bull v bear chart below. 

Also below, our relative strength charts show strong relative strength in bond and gold.  Gold looks to have broke out late last week and continues that move into this week.  We can only assume the strength in XLB is related to the move in precious metals.  Financials are also seeing some strength in terms of performance and money flow.  Commodities lead in sub sectors along with telcom, which of course is a play on yield.  

​Watch todays short video for our compolete macro-monday analysis.

 Part 1 ( ETF MANAGEMENT Thursday) 

 Part 2  ( STrangles Friday) 

This week we concentrated on our Country Level 1&2 and Macro holdings.  WE currently hold nothing in our Country Level 1 & 2, and nothing met our rules for acquisition this week, so we quickly moved on to our Macro holdings.    None of our Macro holdings met our liquidation rules, although $SH ( leveraged shot SPY) came close, we continue to hold.   When it came to acquisitions in  Macro, we added to our bonds and golds.  $GLD, TLT and $IEF.    Next week we turn back to our domestic holdings.  As a reminder, are  last reming domestic holding is one trounche of XLK.  We are anxious to see how the week opens following  this weeks strong rally back up to the 50% fib retracement.   Have a great weekend fellow Chaikin Users.

relative strength wednesday

Despite the the recent rally, we are hesitant, as defensive lead and cyclicals lag.  As noted on the video, a number of the more cyclical SPY sectors have zero bullish names, which skews the ratios a bit.  If you are looking for encouraging signs, there are a few.  Utilities is struggling here, if bearishness was wide-spread and persistent, we think XLU would be catching more of the bid. Also, while crushed on about every timeframe, Energy out performed on the last week.  Will that carry into the next month?  We'll see.  Watch todays video for our complete Relative Strength Wednesday analysis using the Chaikin Analytics platform. Happy Trading, and be well!
