Today’s market direction whipsawing is exactly what the technical indicators pointed to last night. Technically every signal continues to point to the market churning here.

Short-Term Top

Whether this is a short-term market top being put in place is somewhat difficult to tell, but based on my knowledge from investing in the past 4 decades, more and more signals are pointing to a market top for the present time. That does not mean a new bear market, but a definite signal of a larger correction coming.

Profiting In Volatile Markets

Today’s afternoon investing strategy notes looks at 12 changes I am already starting to implement to place greater emphasis on protection of capital in use while focusing on enjoying larger profits thanks to the market being more volatile.

It is a time when I have an advantage over the market maker who has to try to price options according to volatility which can quickly whip stocks back and forth and make pricing difficult.
