AVNR Double Bottom, CEGE, LMC, SUPG, NGEN, BQI, CALVF.OB, etc.
AVNR put in a bullish nearly perfect double bottom today at 3.18 versus it's Wave 4 cycle low at 3.17 on 4-26. It's digesting the huge two day 500%+ gain that occurred in Wave 3's major breakout, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?s=avnr&t=5d&l=off&z=l&q=c&p=&a=m26-12-9%2Cp12%2Cfs%2Cw14&c==. The very flat action today after bottoming, plus the bullish double bottom, is a sign that AVNR may have bottomed, and, may start to have some "good strong action."
CEGE put in a short term Wave 1 perfect double top early today at 4.77, and, it's short term Wave 2 down may have bottomed late today or might do so early tomorrow, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?s=cege&t=5d&l=on&z=l&q=c&p=&a=m26-12-9%2Cp12%2Cfs%2Cw14&c==. I'll be looking to buy in the 4.25-4.50 range early tomorrow, versus the monthly cycle low at 4.18 on 5-1.
SUPG looks like it'll do Wave C down of the short term Wave 2 tomorrow, after a brief huge short term Wave 1 spike on Friday, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?s=supg&t=5d&l=on&z=l&q=c&p=&a=m26-12-9%2Cp12%2Cfs%2Cw14&c==. I'll be looking to buy in the 6.10-6.50 range early tomorrow, versus the monthly cycle low at 6.01 on Thursday 5-3.
LMC's short term wave 1 peaked early today in rollover mode, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?s=lmc&t=5d&l=on&z=l&q=c&p=&a=m26-12-9%2Cp12%2Cfs%2Cw14&c==. I'll be looking to buy in the 12.00-12.50 range in the next few days, versus the monthly cycle low at 11.86 on 5-1.
NGEN's short term Wave 1 continued to rock today, but, was probably peaking (very short term Wave 5) near session's end today, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?s=ngen&t=5d&l=on&z=l&q=c&p=&a=m26-12-9%2Cp12%2Cfs%2Cw14&c==. I'll be looking to buy in the 1.60-1.70 range in the next few days, versus the monthly cycle low at 1.54 on 5-1.
BQI rocked it's way into the rockets club today, putting in a short term Wave 1 cycle high today, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?s=bqi&t=5d&l=on&z=l&q=c&p=&a=m26-12-9%2Cp12%2Cfs%2Cw14&c==. It then did a severe Wave A down of the short term Wave 2 downcycle. I may buy some BQI at 2.90-3.00 in the next day or two, versus the monthly cycle low at 2.85 on 5-1.
CALVF.OB might hit a monthly cycle low in the 10-14 cent range in the next few days, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?s=CALVF.OB&t=3m&l=on&z=l&q=c&p=&a=m26-12-9,p12,fs,w14&c==.
The WMT Lead Indicator was a bullish +0.44% versus the S & P 500 today/on 5-7, and, the NEM Lead Indicator was a bearish -0.86% versus the XAU today/on 5-7 after being a bearish -2.98% versus the XAU last week.
The due diligence that I do (as a minimum) on trading stocks is to look at insider trading activity, the balance sheet, mutual fund/institutional ownership, scan the news/maybe read some, check I Watch, make sure that they're probably in a Cyclical Bull Market (should have completed a 9-18+ month Cyclical Bear Market in the past year or two), etc. I didn't see anything with any of the stocks listed in this post that scared me away.
There are times when one should wait for strength after hitting a price target (hit a buy signal), such as if there's a well established downtrend line one should wait for it to clearly be broken (might wait for a Wave 1 short term upcycle and buy late in a Wave 2 down or early in a Wave 3 up, in the flat early part of the cycle), and, there are times to consider trying to catch the bottom (when I Watch and the WMT Lead Indicator are clearly bullish and/or a stock bounces at a well established uptrend line, then look to buy a pullback).
If one decides to trade rockets obviously paper trade for a while or trade very modest positions at first.
I'll be using cycle trendlines/channels, Elliott Wave patterns, gaps, the WMT Lead Indicator, I Watch, etc. to time the rockets. If it works the way I think it will it should be a lot of fun. We'll see.
As a long term multi-year investor in any stock, commodity, etc. you want to buy near the primary multi-year Secular Bull Market/very long term upcycle trendline, for example NEM's is at 40ish right now, see chart 8 at http://www.joefrocks.com/GoldStockCharts.html. Therefore, NEM right now would be a great buy in the 40-42 range. Gold's primary multi-year Secular Bull Market/very long term upcycle trendline is at $470ish right now, so, gold would be a great buy in the $470-500 range. When the vast majority of gold writers say it's a great time to buy or are bullish, as they almost always are, it's rarely a good time for long term investors to buy.
HUI/XAU's Wave 2 Cyclical Bear Market began 5-11-06, see charts 7 and 9 at http://www.joefrocks.com/GoldStockCharts.html. The primary Secular Bull Market trendlines since late 2000 are at 200-220 for HUI and at 85-90 for the XAU. Those are the targets for where the Cyclical Bear Market will bottom. NEM's Wave 2 Cyclical Bear Market that began on 1-31-06 ended on 10-4-06 at 39.84, so, reliable lead indicator NEM is probably in a 5-6 yearish Wave 3 Cyclical Bull Market since 10-4-06, see chart 8 at http://www.joefrocks.com/GoldStockCharts.html. ....... http://www.JoeFRocks.com/ .
