  • DAN: @Margi1983 $ARKK $COIN Coin looks really good. Hard to buy here b/c you'd be chasing it. But I think the stock will continue to run because of the resurgence in crypto. As for $ARKK, it's always a bit of a canary in the coal mine -- both ways. It's the speculative traders dream (not a bad thing...just a thing). When it's really weak, the NDX is also weak. They run together both ways. When the NDX is strong, I like to look at ARKK and $FFTY -- two pretty distinct ETFs, but they all run together. Here's the comparison chart of NDX/ARKK/FFTY.
  • DAN: ...
    $FFTY -- Still in base, but now the 200dma is flat and would be support on a pullback. Short term strength (overbought), but still in a base.
    $TNX -- Bonds are in demand. Shorts are covering, yields are going lower, and fixed income traders now wa ...
  • DAN: ...
    $FFTY -- representative of the market.
    $ARKK -- Nope. Base breakout failure.
    $DIS -- This analysis wasn’t even hard.
    $GOOGL -- This one wasn’t really hard either.
    $NTNX -- stop below 50-day MA. This has potential, but the market is no ...
  • marklesparkle: @DAN $FFTY Man this looks awful right now
  • Pard: $FFTY ugly today
  • phgruver: One to watch. $FFTY has gone from a high of around $52 (Nov. 2021) to a low of around $22 (Jan 2023), but is has been in a really gradual uptrend since that low. In a day, or two, the 200DMA is going to cross back below the uptrending 50DMA. This portends well for this etf. It is down a bit today, along with the market, but if it pulls back to the 20DMA (around $24.70) I will consider adding. This one has been a dog, but if the market takes off, the $FFTY should do well.
  • Pard: $FFTY looks like a bottom to me. Risk managed entry here with a stop at $23.74 IBD 50 ETF
  • BarryC: @Pard $FFTY Certianly does to me also. If nothing else a very low risk entry spot. Just my 2cents... :-)
  • scottrades: My video notes: $SPY Buyers at the close $QQQ Holding the 21 EMA $IWM Above the MAs but supply above $MDY Same $DIA Holding the 50 Day $SMH Chip News $FFTY Threating a Breakout $BITO Bitcoin ETFs incoming $BLOK New High for the Year $ARKK Working $AAPL Working $MSFT In trend $GOOGL Holding the 50 Day $TSLA Above the MAs $AMD Above the 50 Day $LSCC Nice volume increase $MU Up on Earnings and Guidance $ASML Above the MAs $HUBS Watch 533 $MDB Added to ATL $FTNT Near the highs $MARA Still working $RIOT Watching for a breakout $MSTR When Saylor Buys, Bitcoin falls.

  • sagsworth: @Dan $FFTY I haven't seen this mentioned in many months wasn't this used by you to gauge the health of the market? Looks rather sickly.
  • DAN: @sagsworth $FFTY YEah, it's something I look at. But there are so many indications that the market is weak that I tend to not look at it that much. Where the FFTY is really helpful is in spotting tops. It will virtually always start rolling over before the broader market.
  • bigbartabs: @DAN $FFTY ... rolling over first... is that because it leans more to momentum stocks, that by nature rollover first?
  • champ: @DAN $DLTR $SPY $DIA $IYT $MDY $IWM $QQQ $FFTY $DQ $CF $OXY $SSO $QLD $NOG $DRVN $RTX $CLR $SLB $MRO $NVDA $OBE $APA $HAL $PFE $MRNA $AZN $PTON........Yes sir, you said that correctly and that is exactly what I'm always thinking.........."by the Time we see it on the chart, it's #Old News"........... .......working #Pre set-ups is always important........ Monday will be a very important Day for the Markets and actually for all of next week, could either be more Sellers or Buyers, buying the dip, however the odds are, or the guess is, the Markets will probably drop lower, for a few more days and stock Pickers will also be at Work......Good Luck to All.....
  • DAN: ...
    $FFTY -- low squeeze reversal…but only 6 stocks of the 50 are up today, and only two are up more than 1%. ($DQ and $CF)

  • issues: @Docoof $IWM another small cap fund is $TNA. I looked at the portfolio for TNA and guess what? The one holding was IWM. So I guess they just gave up and use the portfolio of the IWM. TNA is a 3X the IWM so it goes faster up or down. TNA is down 66% in a year. I can see why they gave up. On top of that, you have to pay them 1% just to lose your money. No thanks. NP Oh yeah, here's another one $FFTY (IBD 50 portfolio - blend of sm and lg caps) down 42% in a year. Great!
  • phgruver: Just a quick tidbit, FWIW. $FFTY is in a tight BB squeeze, about 4.5%. It's also in a basing pattern. It's going to break, one way or the other pretty soon. Not a buy RHRN, just something watch.
  • stairm01: @phgruver $FFTY Thanks! It's been a while since this has been in this tight of a VS and I haven't looked at this one for a while. I will be watching.
  • hawk327: @DAN $SPY $DIA $QQQ $FFTY $XLE $XOP $OIH $APA $ARCH $CEIX $AMR $METC $EGY $VET $VTNR Long time member here. Thank you, really enjoy the "extra commentary". Really appreciate the honest analysis. Please do more. Being a veteran, what those guys use to say, you're never going to offend me and if you some how do I'll get over it. Have been in cash, including long term retirement accounts since @SPY dropped below 50 dma in Jan. Great work from you and your team.

  • Docoof: $FFTY new 1-yr low today.
  • bigbartabs: @DAN ... is it your feeling that the Investment Business Daily is not near as influential as it used to be? I keep an eye on their IBD 50 ETF $FFTY every now and then... and it's been quite weak compared to all the major indexes.
  • Pokersmith: @bigbartabs $FFTY Primarily made up of growth stocks...out of favor
  • bigbartabs: @DAN @Pokersmith $FFTY ... growth stocks, yes of course. But look at a 10 year chart of $SPY and $FFTY. Seemed to always track stronger than $SPX $SPY for example... until around January 2019. Then all of a sudden it seems something changed in the way it was being managed... verses back to when IBD started the ETF.
  • phgruver: @bigbartabs $FFTY $SPY $SPX I think you are trying to read too much into it. The $FFTY is made up of micro-cap and small -cap stocks that are tech heavy. They outperform for short periods of time, but always pull back to the S&P500, i.e., no net gain, unless you are able to sell at the top and buy at the bottom. RHRN is one of the few times that the $FFTY has underperformed the $SPY. This will be a buying opportunity when it turns, but WAIT FOR IT! It hasn't happened yet, and probably won''t happen for a month or two. I have a tracking position in $FFTY, but I'm not expecting it to do much.
  • DAN: @bigbartabs $FFTY I don't see it that way. IBD just does what it does. Frankly, I don't think any publication is as influential as it used to be. The WSJ is a punchline. Motley Fool is...well, foolish. TheStreet? Um, no. CNBC is now CNBCLOL. Fo ...
  • bigbartabs: @phgruver $FFTY $SPY $SPX ... I haven't traded $FFTY for years. I'm a 3x ETF guy. Just happened to notice the change in what I remembered it to be, always beating the 1x indexes. All the best...
  • scottrades: My notes: $SPY Close under the 50 Day $QQQ Not a good look. $FFTY Growth still in a downtrend $SMH Downside reversal To the 50 Day. $XLE Extended. $XLI Rejection near the highs $XLF Looking tired. $F Tough in a weak market $TSLA Sold today. $LCID Same. $BRO still some potential. $LPX Weekly Handle Building. $MP Holding the 21 EMA but still choppy. $TECK Dan offered some selling ideas in the forum. $JBHT Weekly fine.

  • bigbartabs: @DAN ... $FFTY being very thin... I've never been able to understand why.

  • DAN: @bigbartabs $FFTY Good point...but $FFTY is just one aspect of IBD...and it is not managed or originated by IBD. It's an Innovator ETF. I'm sure they probably pay some kind of licensing fee to Investors...but the volume of the ETF is not, in my opinion, related to the interest/usefulness/popularity of IBD...but again, it's a good point.

  • DAN: @metal $QQQ $NLY $AAPL $BOOT $ALGN $PLTR $FB $FFTY $IPO $TSLA $HD $SNAP Gotta be careful with this kind of post, metal. Some people tend to be pretty sensitive when discussing anything related to politics, climate, COVID, immigration, defunding law enforcement, MAGA, BLM, Antifa, taxes, or your favorite beer. Opinions vary about a lot of things. And when one opinion is expressed, others will also be expressed -- and the exchange can ultimately become a bit vitriolic and then people will start posting requests to cut it out. Thanks. Dan

    $FFTY -- Entry was 47.93. 47.63 is 3-week low for short term traders. New high is 51.21, so this is working well on the weekly. Alerts: $47.93 (bearish) $47.63 $51.12

  • DAN: Good morning. The market's a bit flat in pre-market trading today. (I'm not sure what "a bit flat" is. Not much different than "really flat" or "massively flat" or even "kinda flat"...but I'm sticking with &q ...
  • DAN: In a tough tape, the active trades are holding up pretty well. Here are my thoughts:

    $NLY -- easy to hold...more than a year later.

    $BOOT -- steady price action, but no real upside momentum. (Stop is at 79, which is a break even trade)

    $COIN -- ...
  • DAN: ...
    $FFTY -- Holding up.
    $POOL -- Stopped out at $472 yesterday. Loss was about 3%. Nothing wrong with holding this stock, but the trade was based on a 50-day moving average support, and it didn’t hold. Stock is still trending higher, but the m ...

Like the Space Station, when refrigerant low, look for leak, that is the problem. Low refrigerant is the result; need to fix the problem also. Otherwise, back in a week,month to add more. A good AC tech will look for the leak; A new AC tech will add refrigerant and leave; A salesman disguised as an AC tech will tell you your system is old, need new one. A great AC tech will find the leak, show you, fix it and charge a small amount. Good luck.

    $FFTY -- Not buying this.
    $GME -- Watch this. It’s squeezing in the right place.
    Active Trades:
    $AAPL -- Holding the 50-day MA. Stop at 139.90...but you might use a partial stop at a higher level…$145-147. Alert $147

  • Carver: @Scottrade I was cautious about holding $HUT over the long weekend so I moved stop real tight. Stopped out and real happy. Thanks for the mention of this stock early this week. Now turning my attention to $FFTY.
  • scottrades: @Carver $HUT $FFTY Great trading!

    $FFTY -- Working pretty well here. Thin. A holding stock.
    $IDXX -- Starting to look frisky. But still at break even.

  • Momentariness: @DAN $FFTY Not very many shares traded per day. Not an issue?

  • DAN: @Momentariness $FFTY Just something to be aware of. It's not for intraday trading, that's for sure.

  • traderbren: $FFTY - clearing the 8 ema.
  • traderbren: $FFTY - back above the 50d
  • DAN: Adding ARK Innovation ETF ($ARKK) to the Active Trade List. $ARKK is starting to perk up along the 200-day moving average. From a purely technical standpoint, this is still not quite in the sweet spot because the 50-day moving average is below the 200-day moving average. But that will flip in a week. But I've looked at all of the $ARKK holdings and 37 of 46 stocks are up today. At the same time, the $FFTY (IBD 50) chart is looking pretty solid. Not buyable yet,...but solid. That's the proxy for growth stocks that have good technical characteristics too. Basis: 122 Stop: 115.15 (about 6%) Dan
