Blog Post: Day 27 of $QQQ short term up-trend; 245 US new highs and 27 lows; My Successful GLB Tracker table updated daily shows that buying stocks after a GLB and at an ATH can be very profitable.
All GLBs (green line break-outs) are not successful. If I buy one when it occurs, I sell if it closes back below its green line. Most of the trading gurus I respect made their best gains with stocks going to a series of all-time highs. Use the box below to sign up to receive my blog each time I publish.
Blog Post: The market is strong with many growth stocks setting up; Here are 13 stocks that have all doubled over the past year, reached an ATH on Friday, and 9 of them met my criteria for a weekly green bar setup, indicated by the last column. See weekly chart of $PHM.
My weekly green bar setup looks for rising stocks that bounced up off of their rising 4wk average and reached a 20 week high in relative strength vs SPY. I buy them and place my stop just below the week’s low. They are sorted by current price/price 250 days ago. All of these are at least 1.9x their prices a year ago. Note that 3 of these are residential builders (MHO. PHM, TOL).
Note the weekly green bar on PHM, which is riding its 4 wk average higher (red dotted line). My GLB Tracker table, to the right, shows that PHM is up over 50% since its GLB last April.
The GMI remains Green and is at 6 (of 6).
