Options Oracle: 12/07/12

On November 29th, I sent out an alert to buy the January 2014 35 Calls because there was a bullish engulfing pattern showing up on the charts. At the time, the stock was trading $38.20 and I set a target price at the gap up around the $40 level. Now that the stock has moved higher I think […]

  This ETF, like a large number of stocks, is showing a clear bullish engulfing pattern near a role-reversal support line. The January calls are fairly inexpensive at $6.20. We will have to wait and see what happens with the price movement over the next couple of week before deciding whether to turn this into a calendar spread […]

All of the major indices are showing bullish engulfing patterns and although Bank of America is not showing an engulfing pattern, it is showing bullish tendencies.

This is a stock that we traded last month but eventually had to close the position to limit the losses in our account. I did say that we would have another chance to trade Baidu and this is it. The stock is bouncing nicely off of the role reversal support level that is seen on the weekly chart.

The Oil Sector is looking a little oversold right now as we reach for a role reversal support level around the $36 area. The drop in trading volume suggests to me that the selling pressure is easing up a bit. When you see that happen at a major support level the buyers start to pay attention and often you […]

Silver is one of those commodities that trade very technically. In other words, the price action follows the technical signals the majority of the time and this time we are seeing a very well defined bullish engulfing pattern forming on the daily candle charts.

The iShares Silver Trust is showing a Bullish Engulfing pattern on the candle charts and this is something that I find hard to resist, especially if you are looking for something to buy in this market. Yesterday we also saw a hammer pattern, which is also bullish, so the two candle patterns combined only makes this more appealing […]
