Another Market Timing Win – And We’re Bearish

Only FIVE WEEKS until our Options Bootcamp where attendees will attain VIP status with full access to OptionEasy’s state-of-the-art tools in our most practical event ever, including exercises using the Smartphone optimized application!

I’m a firm believer that a needlessly bad trade avoided is as valuable as a good trade made. A bit like a penalty save being equivalent to a goal scored.

With so much misinformation abounding on options, one of my missions is to correct any misinformation. And with the OptionEasy tools it’s very easy to do that. And it’s also very easy for you to ensure you don’t make needless mistakes.

Two weeks ago I suggested the markets needed a pause from the unrelenting downdraft, and that’s exactly what happened.
Last week I said there was no easy fix for this market … and that’s proving to be prescient as well, as the markets have stumbled.

Before my Market Outlook for the week ahead, just to remind you of two important things …

  1. Our smartphone optimized version of the Platform is literally only a couple of weeks away from deployment – Yes I will be an addict!
  2. Another reminder that there are just 5 weeks until our Options Bootcamp in the beautiful Mayakoba!

Market Outlook:

Our market commentary continues to be outstanding. Mastering market timing enables you to swim WITH the tide at the right time.

Last week I said there was “no sign yet of a convincing bounceback … In other words, there looks like being no quick fix for this market.”  

This week I’m repeating that and reiterating a bearish stance.

Watch the video for more detail.

Market Timers:

  • Longer Term Market Timer (OVIsi):
    Half green (somehow and only just!).
  • Medium Term Swing Timer:
    Bearish.
  • The Main Indices:
    Only the DIA doesn’t have a red OVI out of the four main index ETFs.

Stock Selection:

The main emphasis this week has been on bearish setups. These often tend to be untidier than bullish setups and need more attentive management. As ever, my focus is on OVI and other Big Money Footprints near Key Levels. This week I’ve also highlighted a few stocks that are overbought with bearish monorail bars.

The key to consistency is to pick your playbook and stick to the best quality setups that conform to it. If the setups aren’t there, keep your powder dry for another time.

My playbook is OVI, near Key Levels, Shrinking Retracements, and a consolidation/sideways move.  The other two Big Money Footprints are highly desirable but those four are essential to me! With my new VIP filters, I’m also now looking more at overbought and oversold issues.

Go into the ‘Expert Watchlists’ area of the platform to view my Watchlists for (a) all the stocks I cover in today’s video, and (b) a smaller list that warrant a closer look.

** The list of stocks is in the Expert Watchlists area (just click on my image to see them), so you’ll have to log in to see it. Market Timing will also go inside a login soon. Remember to reference the video commentary so you know what my sentiment is on each stock listed. **

Don’t Miss Out:

Software Upgrades:

Improved design inside the TradeFinders are making them look nice and tidy – that was done immediately after the Journal upgrades that I demonstrated during our VIP Group 1-2-1 training sessions.

Many more game-changing upgrades will be made in time for the Mayakoba Options VIP Bootcamp on May 3rd – 4th

We’ve got some big updates lined up for this year: 

  • A.I. Interfaces:
    If you like using A.I. applications, then you’re going to love a particular development we have in the pipeline for you, namely GPT inside our charting application!
  • Focus on Stocks that Could Move Bigger and Faster:
    Soon I’ll have a filter you can use for stocks with potentials for larger moves in either direction.  
  • Journal Upgrade:
    Phase 1 and 2 are both deployed, and there’s much much more to come in due course!
  • Mobile Experience:
    It’s only around the corner now … our mobile platform will start its roll out, complete with dynamic notifications to enhance your trading experience. 
  • Options Enhancements:
    The Pricer has been upgraded in plenty of time for Mayakoba – take a look at the percent-to-double calculations!
    More key upgrades to our options tools are coming soon, alongside major research insights we can’t wait to share with you.
  • Updated ‘How To’ Video Guides.
    We’ve already deployed a handy ‘How To’ click-through guide to help you navigate the platform.  We’ll also be upgrading the Fast Filters still further.

More updates are on the way!
