Weekly  Stock Market and Trading Strategies Report Week of July 8th

Results and Notes:  

Last week was a holiday light week with the market closed on Wednesday afternoon and all day Thursday so we did not issue new alerts.  Also, a lot of post 2nd quarter adjustments meant a lot of hits to small cap stocks on light volume as money managers re-adjust or take post 2nd quarter window dressing profits to start the 3rd quarter.

Short Term and Long Term Elliott Wave Views for the SP 500 Index

Short Term:  As we said here last weekend the pullback to 2914 was shallow and therefore bullish, we ran to all time highs as projected. SP 500 is riding the 13 day EMA line currently 2946 about 45 points below current levels on this Wave 1 of 5 of Int 3 up from 2728 Int wave 2 lows.

Long Term: Major Wave 3 will continue to push all time highs intermediate to long term, with 3100 initial major resistance on SP 500.  Intermediate 3 of Major 3 unfolding which is usually the most bullish of waves (2728 bottom of Intermediate 2)

Long Term View:  Int 3 of Major 3 underway to over 3000

Wave 3 of Major 3 continues  the most bullish usually of all Elliott Wave patterns.  We are looking for north of 3050 as discussed prior with 3100 area likely resistance in time.

Short Term View: Wave 1 of 5 still on going

As we said here last week, 2914 pullback was shallow so we could extend to all time highs again. This is what we saw last week as the SP 500 hit a high around 3000 and then pulled back before popping again to 2990 area on Friday in light volume.  As long as the 13 day EMA line holds, the Wave 1 of Int 3 uptrend continues (5 total waves).

Earnings season is upon us and we will see how the outlooks are in the conference calls for the 2nd half and maybe into 2020.

Weekly ideas and tips on Swing Trading Success:  Taking breaks and keeping level head

Taking a break off and on as a trader is important . It allows you time to reflect, to recharge your batteries and perhaps go over some errors you have made and tighten up your discipline a bit as well. Every trader has slumps during the year, not matter how many years experience or skill levels.  By the same token, there are times during the year when you can get on a great roll as well, as I can attest.  Its key to keep a level head and not get too high or too low emotionally under either circumstance. There are times when your account takes a hit, and times when you can do no wrong.  Just remember The Market is smarter than all of us, respect it and stay disciplined, that means both in profit taking in good times and taking losses in those rough waters.

Swing Trade Candidates: 

Each week we provide 8-15 Swing Trade ideas to consider as part of our SRP service. We often pick a few from the list during the week as actual alerts and or names from our other research that are not on this list. 

Last week BZUN ran up almost 9% off this list,  ZS 8.4%, others not so much in a volatile week as post 2nd quarter portfolio profit taking took hold in my opinion.
