  • Mikev200: $XLP components working... $KO wants ATH
  • scottrades: $XLP
  • scottrades: @scottrades $XLP
  • phgruver: $XLP is pumping it's head against the 50dma. If it can't break through, this is @Dan's short signal. The 200dma is down around $73. Not a big move, but a possibility to watch.
  • phgruver: Good morning. Not seeing anything to get excited about. $XLF, $XLP and $XLU look interesting, but we need the whole market to firm up. I'll probably be finding other things to do, today.
  • Kid2old: Top 2 to 5 companies in terms of RS in the $XLP.
  • Pard: $XLP same idea. Tight range, adding to positive position longer term hold. Cash alternative.
  • Docoof: $XLP $IYK $VDC $UGE Consumer staples doing ok today.
  • scottrades: ...
    Most SPDR ETFs are above all their key moving averages, which gives me, and should give you, confidence in this market. If only one or two sectors were in uptrends, we would be worried, but the strength in things like $ARKK $XLK $SMH and subsequent ...

  • DrScience: #Markets NQ much stronger than ES but expect the $SPY to drag on any rally in $QQQ. Today's advance is very narrow, and mixed -- 5 sectors green and 6 red. Selling in $XLF, $XLI, and $XLE are dragging while $XLU, $XLC, and $XLP are strong.

  • DrScience: #Markets $SPY double bottom at 395.50 on 5-min chart at Noon. Of course, it's lower than the triple bottom at 396 just 45 minutes before. What does it mean? Pshew! I don't know. Mr. Market wants to be bullish, but only $XLE, $XLU and $XLP are higher than the open. Everything else is under water, gasping for air. If $XLK and $XLV can stage a rally, then they could pull $SPY back to retest the open at 398, but VWAP stand in the way. Acceptance above 398 doesn't change today's neutral tone much, but a move above the 399 double top does, at least, until we slam into the 50 DMA at 400. That's where the bears are lying in wait! And... there you have it.
  • Docoof: @DrScience $SPY $XLE $XLU $XLP $XLK $XLV #Markets Thx.
  • Rockstar: ...
    The sectors I am focusing in on long are $XLB, $XLE, $XLI, $XLP, $XLV, $XME and $ITB. The market has lost the $XLF, $XRT, $XLK,$SMH and certainly the FANG stocks. Months ago we were discussing how in a bearish market the bears hunt for the weakest ...
  • Rockstar: ...
    The metals closed above the 50 day EMA yesterday after testing monthly support so there is some potential here as well. I am watching $FCX here as it is forming a high base. The $XLB closed above the 50 day EMA and I am watching $FCX, $DOW and $NU ...
  • Rockstar: ...
    The ETF's are deteriorating as well. The market has already lost the $XLE although yesterday it seemed to put in a fight. Maybe it will build a base here and be an opportunity going forward. The $XLP, $XLV, $XLB, $XLU, $XME, and $TAN are all coming ...
  • Rockstar: ...
    So what do we do? A few of the leading ETF's have had substantial damage to their charts. $XLE,$XLF and $XLV all have been under pressure. The $XLB,$XLI,$TAN and $XLP are holding up well and I am looking at stocks in those sectors. I continue to se ...
  • Jazman0013: @Rockstar $SPY $VIX $XLE $XLF $XLV $XLB $XLI $TAN $XLP most the best trades were not taking them. The few winners were won by exiting with profit in hand and not overstaying. The disaster trades were failing to leave sooner than desired. This market takes no prisoners and has ample room for beatings in its wood warehouse…
  • Rockstar: @Jazman0013 $SPY $VIX $XLE $XLF $XLV $XLB $XLI $TAN $XLP You are correct. Somebody bought at the highs, and many are trapped. I have been taken to the woodshed too many times. I am not interested in going there again
  • Amisure: @Rockstar $SPY $VIX $XLE $XLF $XLV $XLB $XLI $TAN $XLP --Just a constructive thought----instead of calling officials clowns and incompetent as I see here so often------I'd rather see comments as to what one would do ---- and not with hindsight but with forward thinking. Please do not take offense.
  • Rockstar: @Amisure $SPY $VIX $XLE $XLF $XLV $XLB $XLI $TAN $XLP No offense taken. Just look at their record. They have always reacted too late (both ways). I have been posting about the actions ever since i came on board. This is not in any way shape or form hindsight. Just go back and look at my posts about them and their actions. They are the one's that talked about "transitory inflation". I said when I first started that inflation was due to supply issues. It took them far too long to realize that and I am still not convinced they do.
  • Rockstar: ...
    The $XLE fell apart last week as /CL pulled back by almost 10% for the week. I am not looking at any longs in this sector right now. The $XBI closed below its averages so no longs here either. The $XLB closed below the 8EMA Friday but above the ...
  • Rockstar: ...
    The $DIA and $IWM continue their strength with some strength in more than a couple ETF's. The ETF's that I am looking at long positions include $TAN, $XLF, $XLE, $XLB, $XLI, $XLP, $XLV, $XME,and $IYT. Of these, I am hesitant on the $XLE with oi ...
  • Rockstar: ...
    The four horseman are still bullishly aligned and there are sectors that still warrant some long exposure. The $XLF is threatening new multi-month highs, the $XLV is at multi-month highs, and the $XLU,$XLI and $XLP all showing bullish charts. The ...

    $XLP -- Staples are still in a downtrend. 200-Day MA is now the ceiling.
    $XLI -- Same pattern.

  • DrScience: #Market $SPX Nobody has blinked... yet! PPI numbers were unrevealing, so we may have to wait 24 hours for some indication that the bulls (above 3625) or the bears (below 3560) want to take the wheel on this clown car. Sectors are mixed with 7:4 in the red since the open. $XLP (Cons. Staples) is the leading sector today. TICKs are pretty flat, but leaning bearish as it has hit -1000 on two 5-min bars. Breadth is bearish at -2:1 NYSE and -1.4:1 NASD
  • woodman: @DrScience $SPX $XLP #Market - lots of economic news/commentary on the plate potentially to affect traders between now and end of the week. https://www.marketwatch.com/economy-politics/calendar
  • champ: For stock #ideas.....$XRT, the Retail sector was a nice sector today, because the $XLP, the Consumer Discretionary and the $XLY, the Consumer Staples were working today,....Check-out the Names in these sectors......for stock trade ideas. These sectors are #continuing their moves. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  • DrScience: #Markets $SPY Nope! It isn't Christmas in July! Consumer Staples ($XLP), Utilities ($XLU), and Real Estate ($XLRE) are the only green sectors since the open. The two heavyweights, Technology ($XLK) and Healthcare ($XLV), are red. Until those two sectors start pulling toward the upper right, expect the bears to reassert their presence at every test of VWAP. $TICK is showing bearish intent and Breadth is firmly negative. Until those dynamics and tone change, the market is in the doghouse. The $VIX is up $1.40 over yesterday's close, and the slight reprieve in $DXY has been negated as the US Dollar Index is hitting a new high at $109.294.
  • rck89: @DrScience $SPY $XLP $XLU $XLRE $XLK $XLV $TICK $VIX $DXY #Markets So where are you looking for a bottom - short or long term? I know an impossible question, but just thought I'd ask. Thanks.
  • Rockstar: ...
    Thus far this year the first six or so days of the month have been bullish. We then trail off into monthly expiration. If the bulls do not have a strong week this will not be pleasant. The $XLP and $XLU are really the only sectors I will look at fo ...

  • woodman: @DAN $SPY $QQQ $FOMO - Leaders.... Yesterday's tallest midget among stock sectors was $XLP, and even it couldn't stand in the shallow end of the pool and see over the surface of the water.
  • Cjauger: $XLP the only green sector
  • woodman: $XLP is where all the (a-hem) "excitement" is today. That's to say, it's green in a sea of red (other than bond funds). The following stocks within XLP are up 2% or more (or at least were when I looked a little while ago: $CPB $SJM $CLX $CHD $GIS $K $KMB $PM $KHC $WMT $CAG. ($TSN honorable mention.)
  • lanedra: @woodman $XLP $CPB $SJM $CLX $CHD $GIS $K $KMB $PM $KHC $WMT $CAG $TSN With regard to XLP, would you dare "nibble" in this overall market bloodbath?
  • woodman: @lanedra $XLP $CPB $SJM $CLX $CHD $GIS $K $KMB $PM $KHC $WMT $CAG $TSN - I'm not hungry. I'm essentially fully in cash and standing out of the way, except for short duration 3x ETF trades. That said, if you have strong hunger pangs, be sure to use stops/position size to protect. But I trust nothing here. These are major support levels that are failing. There will be sudden rebounds, but cash suits me right now.

  • bRobert: $XLI 10% correction with range breakdown weekly $CAT won't help $190 potential if daily H&S top triggers $DE Best in space but potential move back to range bottom $IYT $240 WEEKLY target 1 4% away But if $240 breaks $200 is in the conversation with weekly M top Watch and react Having a lot of cash ready to deploy at the right time will be a huge asset Easy to see what is working now on the long side and they are becoming extended and are at risk of coming in a bit eg Oil Trailers Consumer staples $XLP at the 50D $MO $PM at the highs Short trades continue to work well or plenty of cash on the sidelines patiently waiting for the coach to call a play with your number.
  • bRobert: @bRobert $XLI $CAT $DE $IYT $XLP $MO $PM $URI WEEKLY H&S top discussed many times Throw back to the 50w from below on good earnings Ran into heavy resistance Look at the daily 20/50/200d ceiling = low risk short entry just above yesterday Watch for a lower low and a move closer to the 200W
  • Ajax4Hire: So much of what I have(had) auto-sold via Stop-Loss over the last few weeks. Mostly in cash now and nothing looks good. Just back from "camping" on Fla peninsula where I ran away from cold/rain/sleet! Going to W.Disney World tomorrow with daughter and granddaughter tomorrow. I'm bummed my employees($DXY USD) are not working. And inflation eats that up. Nothing is green, nothing is attractive: $SPY $437.98 S&P500 ETF $XLK $154.33 TECHNOLOGY $XLV $129.47 SBI HEALTHCARE $XLY $180.42 SBI CONS DISCR $XLC $72.22 COMMUNICATION $XLF $38.20 FINANCIAL $XLI $101.20 SBI INT-INDS $XLP $75.96 SBI CONS STPLS; Maybe but boring. $XLU $68.84 SBI INT-UTILS; $XLRE $46.89 RL EST SEL SEC $XLB $84.04 SBI MATERIALS $XLE $62.45 ENERGY; Energy but also heading down. $XME $42.27 METALS MNG $XBI $90.03 BIOTECH $XRT $77.38 RETAIL
  • Jazman0013: @Ajax4Hire $DXY $SPY $XLK $XLV $XLY $XLC $XLF $XLI $XLP $XLU $XLRE $XLB $XLE $XME $XBI $XRT call it fools hope but the ugly open may lead to a wash out and a decent close. So much damage done though… glad I’m heavy cash too. Even the better trades were a lot of work the past couple weeks. Too much work.

As my wife always says to me when I get a bit frustrated, "You can do hard things." And when you really think about it,...EVERYONE has to write a new song every day, not just me. It's just my analogy. But each day brings new challenges. So each of us lives each day differently. Let's all make sure that we live our life making one "Greatest Hits" album after another. ;-) Dan
