The GMI and GMI-R are both indicating a general market up-trend. The Worden T2108 is back to 74%, still in neutral territory. Meanwhile this weekly chart of the Nasdaq 100 index shows it to be in a firm up-trend since September. The key bullish pattern of 4wk>10wk>30 wk average is evident and the index has continually found support at its 10 week average (blue dotted line). I have to relearn the lesson over and over again, to focus on weekly trends, so as not to be shaken out of the market by daily fluctuations. Note also the Stage 2 up-trend, with the index well above the rising 30 week average (red line). A key sell signal for me will be a close below the 10 week average, currently at 56.83.

Last December, I wrote about a Judy’s pick, TDSC, at around $31. Yesterday TDSC rose 10% to $53.29, an all-time high. My stock-buddy, Judy, researches “concept” stocks, and finds more future winners than any other person I have ever met.
ok dr> how about a post on judy’s criteria to find stocks. she must have given some of it to your students. how about your readers?thanks.
I am hoping to post an interview with Judy later this month. Her technique is based on technical analysis combined with concepts. She thoroughly researches a company, including its products, industry, patents, intellectual property and research. She then makes an assessment and times her entry using technical analysis. She is willing to buy early and to wait for things to go her way.
I really like this approach that Judy takes for long term trades on weekly charts, but not so much for swing trading. I am hoping to learn how she conducts her research on companies.
