Swing Trading Strategy Report – Monday, November 27

My Swing Trading Approach

Raise my stop-losses in existing positions. Protecting profits comes first and foremost. Should the market rally continue into today, I will look to add low-risk plays to the portfolio.

Indicators

VIX – A quick 7-day fall from 14.51 to 9.67. Par for the course.

T2108 (% of stocks trading below their 40-day moving average): Up 6 straight days to 53%. I still have a concern that this is a dead cat bounce.

Moving averages (SPX): Trading above all the moving averages.

Industries to Watch Today

Solid day for all the indices – each of them finishing the day in the green. Technology and Basic Materials led the way, per the usual. Financials and Industrials saw the least amount of action.

My Market Sentiment

Trading should resume back to normal today. We are back in the phase of making marginal new highs. I’m not expecting any major moves here.
