Weekly Energy Equities Review, Market Outlook and Trading Plan for May 3-7

Another very short writeup this week. Some months are just packed with too much stuff to do and this is one of them. High school graduation activities have taken up the last few weekends and probably the next couple as well. Just wanted to […] Continue Reading…

Weekly Energy Equities Review, Market Outlook and Trading Plan for April 26-30

Just a short writeup today. I promised the kid I’d clean out the garage so she could have a party and then it’s off for an afternoon of wine and music with the wife. Enjoy life.

 

I’m not sure what to make of this market […] Continue Reading…

Weekly Energy Equities Review, Market Outlook and Trading Plan for April 19-23

It was another week of rangebound trading for most energy names. I wasn’t going to write an article this week because there really wasn’t any significant movement or tradable setups to talk about. But after thinking about it, maybe that lack of movement IS […] Continue Reading…

Weekly Energy Equities Review, Market Outlook and Trading Plan for April 12-16

Weekly Energy Equities Review, Market Outlook and Trading Plan for 22-26

This is a difficult market. I went back to 100% cash on Thursday and have no real desire to jump back into anything this week at these levels. I had a great short position in IWM from around 227.75, and I really thought it […] Continue Reading…

Weekly Energy Equities Review, Market Outlook and Trading Plan for February 16-19
