Market Summary
MARKET MOOD: RED
The market must be feeling patriotic as we have a RED condition leading us into the 4th of July holiday weekend. LOL All kidding aside, I was frustrated a bit when I saw this. 2 weeks of a red condition while the indexes are pushing into new highs. What gives??
I took a short breather. Accepted it. And am back. 🙂
So what’s keep me in a red condition? Well a few things…
First, there’s 36 trade ideas this week. Sounds like a lot, right? It did to me. However, when I looked closer at them, only 3 of them really grabbed me and none of them are what I’d consider ‘A’ level trades.
To have a crop of 36 ideas and none of them to be ‘A’ level feels like opening a fully stocked bakery with yesterday’s cakes in the window.
Another cautionary flag is the New Highs vs New Lows. It feels off. The NADSAQ and NYSE are pushing into fresh highs and the number of stocks making new highs are drying up a bit. That’s the opposite of what I’d expect.
Checkout the charts of the indexes below for a closer look at the action.

DISCLAIMER: Futures, stocks, and options trading involves a substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. The valuation of futures, stocks, and options may fluctuate, and, as a result, clients may lose more than their original investment. The impact of seasonal and geopolitical events is already factored into market prices. The highly leveraged nature of futures trading means that small market movements will have a great impact on your trading account and this can work against you, leading to large losses, or can work for you, leading to large gains. If the market moves against you, you may sustain a total loss greater than the amount you deposited into your account. You are responsible for all the risks and financial resources you use and for the chosen trading system.
