Use Fibonacci Retracement to Gauge Huge Market Drops (May 20th, 2022)

After 5 1/2 months of market slide, investors are trying to find the bottom for this huge down leg.  Just like all past market drops, people always turn to Fibonacci Retracement for guidance.  Today, S&P 500 Index's daily low touched and overshot the 38.2% retracement level and bounded.  NASDAQ Index overshot the 50% retracement and closed in the 50% retracement area.   Since Fibonacci retracement levels traditionally serve as magnet for market bottoms, if prices don't hold in these areas respectively, it will be painful to count on the next Fibonacci level for support.

Two Major Market Indices in Friday the 13th Afternoon (May 13th, 2022)

Today both the S&P 500 Index and NASDAQ Index closed the week with two consecutive up days.  While S&P 500 Index closed at 4023.89, up 93.81 points (+2.39%), NASDAQ Index closed at 11805, up 434.04 points (+3.82%).  

In our May 10th post, we drew the supports and resistances for the two indices.  Today, we revisit these price levels and see how these lines, which serve as guard rails, affected the price action.  Can these lows be the bottoms for the current down slide?  Time will tell.  It may not be a V-shaped bottom.  As for all major reversals, it is very possible for the indices to come again to retest these lows at least once before setting a trend to move higher.

Understand Where We Are in a Bear Market (May 11th, 2022)

It has been awhile since we published our last posts on S&P 500 Index and NASDAQ Index.  While we all overwhelm by the continuous sizable market slides, today we take a peek at where things stand and where all these key supports and resistances are.  Whether the market goes up or down, it has to work through these price levels.

From a technical standpoint, the market is way oversold and a technical bounce is in order.  However, inflation and the War are still on the horizon.  These negative fundamentals will prevent the market from going higher.

The Sad Look of Some Well-Known Stocks (May 1st, 2022)

These stocks are popular among investors.   How many of us have a chance to take a look at their daily charts after four solid months of huge market price erosion.   Today, we take few well-known companies' daily charts to illustrate the damages that the market has done to these stocks.   It is still hard to predict the market's future when the investment environment is the least desirable for years or even decades.   There is one common characteristic among these charts: there are many overhead resistances and few supports.   In other words, it is much easier to go lower than to make some headway on the upside.
