Options Oracle: 09/26/2012

As you can see from the candle chart above, the stock has dropped to a key role reversal support level and is showing a well-defined hammer pattern. The hammer is a very reliable buy signal that usually shows at the bottom of a downward leg. Watch this week’s video »

Equity Oracle: 09/25/2012

As you can see from the daily chart of the QQQ, we are showing a bearish engulfing pattern right at a key support level as the volume is increasing. This tells us the sellers are moving in and it’s the news from the Fed that is driving this selloff. Watch this week’s video »

Genpact, Ltd. (G) is a stock we have not traded but the technical signals are telling me this could be a good candidate for us. The stock looks as though it is making a move to fill the gap so our strategy is to buy it, place a stop below support (below 16) and set a sell order […]
