Futures are marginally positive and the DAX is marginally negative, indicating a mixed open. Market condition scans continue to have a positive bias, but energy is weakening. The market bias indicators are still showing a weak negative bias. The combination of these indicators along with options expiry suggest today will be a choppy day.
Markets had a mild down day yesterday, which looked like a resting day. We have had 8 up days, with yesterday essentially a neutral day. This may be the beginning of a swing down cycle since the indexes are all extended above their 5 and 10 day moving averages. Also, the market stochastics are in the oversold zone which is also suggestive of a potential pullback.
This will give us an opportunity to look for entries in stocks with good fundamentals near support.
BRLI, our papertrade, had a down day yesterday. Volume remained below the moving average but we will maintain our stop at $32.04.
