DNDN Confirmed The Bullish Case And AGEN Exploded
DNDN confirmed the bullish case today by convincingly taking out it's short term Wave 1 cycle high (at 6.65) today, with a cycle high so far at 7.24, see http://stockcharts.com/charts/gallery.html?dndn. The cycle high at 6.57 from last Thursday should be Wave 1 of the short term Wave 3 and today's cycle high should be Wave 3 of the short term Wave 3, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?s=dndn&t=5d&l=off&z=l&q=c&p=&a=m26-12-9%2Cp12%2Cfs%2Cw14&c==. So, the third Wave 5 upcycle of the short term Wave 3, as well as the Wave 5 short term upcycle (monthly upcycle since bottoming at 4.95 on 5-11), still probably lie ahead. DNDN made a bullish large gap up today to 6.55 at the open from Friday's close at 6.07. I may go long DNDN today.
AGEN exploded today on big volume due to positive news, see http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?s=AGEN&t=5d&l=off&z=l&q=c&p=v&a=m26-12-9,p12,fs,w14&c==. AGEN is probably in Wave 4 after hitting a monthly cycle low at 2.25 on 5-15, or, it could still be in a big Wave 3, but, more likely it's in a short term Wave 4 down.
I covered GLD at 65.23 early today versus a short at 65.50 on Friday. I may reshort it before session's end.
The WMT Lead Indicator is very bearish today at -1.00%+ versus the S & P 500 and was a bearish -1.72% last week.
The NEM Lead Indicator was a bearish -2.56% versus the XAU last week and is a modestly bearish -0.32% right now.
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.
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. 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 began on 1-31-06. ....... http://www.JoeFRocks.com/ .
