Boring

Boring means good because a major move is underway. Till then, make best use of your time.

Also, don’t forget 10PM for my 2nd show.

I like to look at the individual sectors especially during times of consolidation. This is especially helpful if you are inclined to build a both long/short portfolio. Sector analysis helps you separate the strongest and the weakest sectors. After all, not all sectors move in the same way as you will see below.

I will be hosting my first show tonight after DR. PHIL’s “Market Shrinkology” at 9:30PM: http://www.stocktwits.tv/schedule/. All you have to do is go to http://www.stocktwits.tv/ or any place where the tv is embedded.

Here’s how the show will work:

1) AFTER 4PM today, send in your best charting requests. I will choose a few dozen of them.

2) Charts will be marked and I will go through them in rapid-fire succession and explain how my mind works when I look at a chart, what I look for, and how important it is to keep things simple.

3) If you have questions about/during the show, just tweet me at : @WeeklyTA

After removing myself for several weeks, I am still surprised that I get no less than 30 e-mails daily on questions that are most likely answered in one of my past articles. As you may know, I will simply ignore people that don’t take the time to search for the answer. I’m busy as fuck, so don’t get mad if I don’t answer you.

If you have questions regarding my performance, wondering if people make money off my calls, or if you’re an idiot that is deciding whether or not to attack me, you may want to read this first: http://ibankcoin.com/chart_addict/2009/08/20/important-matters-to-discuss-real-time-profitable-calls-sf-ms-real-3rd-party-auditing-michael-stokes-epic-failure-etc/

Finally, I haven’t done a “Q&A with CA” session in a long time now that I realized it. The way it works is you write down a question here and I answer it (or not). Easy, huh?

Also, if you’re gonna be in NYC this weekend, say so. I’ll be up there.
