The market is set to pull back this morning. After a gap up on Friday, most of my stocks to watch are a bit overextended anyway, so a pullback should bring them down to levels where I’d be interested in buying. Overall, I’m curious how long this rally can be sustained and I will be quicker to jump out of a trade with a profit if I feel like the market isn’t going to take care of me.

I sold my BHF at the open at $36.83. Another winner this week! +4.4%
I bought 600 shares of BHF in 2 different lots. Average price is $35.27
The market is getting crushed today and BHF is falling with it. I’m going to wait until tomorrow to try to trade. Maybe that will allow things to stabilize a bit. I don’t trust myself to try to catch the bottom on this.
We have a short week this week with the Martin Luther King Jr. day on Monday.

My limit sell order tripped at $19.00 today. This was a strong trade. It has been grinding up all week with very little pullback and I think it has a good chance of continuing. It hit high of day near the close, which is also a strong sign. Nice trading! +3.2%
I’ve bought 400 more shares of EQH. Volume looked good yesterday and the markets appear to be coming online.
I bought 500 shares of EQH at 18.33. I will add more if I like what I see later this week.
Market futures are down a bit going into tomorrow as I type. Previous support often becomes resistance and the major indexes look to be near a potential resistance point right now. Volume on the market ETFs has also been declining (See DIA, SPY, IWM) The market may push through this. The IWM (Russell 2000/Small Caps) has been leading the way in both directions recently and I like that it seems to have shown less declining volume than the other major …Read the full article
