Bulls Reload as /WSB Fades
Big Players appear to be re-loading leveraged risk -on bets as the WSB moment in the sun fades. Price action has been bullish, but now at the top of the range we’ll need to see if the bulls have any remaining power to breakout. If we do get the breakouts, it will be a good place to re-set stops / strikes and give us a new line to shoot against.
- Watch the oil breakout against the backdrop of a rising USD and lagging energy equities. If the USD rolls over and oil pops further, look for an energy equity catch up move. If USD remains strong, the oil move may prove to be a false breakout.
- $MJ and Cannabis space in general looks bullish. MJ / MSOS / ACB / GRWG are moving to the upside. Levels to alarm are in the video.
- FATMAAN: Watch AMZN and GOOGL price action carefully. FB / AAPL / NFLX traded poorly post earnings. Bulls dont want to see AMZN and GOOGL moves faded.
- Indexes and other equity names: Look for bullish entries. Short entries are counter trend and should be reserved for the truly nimble and active traders.
