Started my research late. Then went for a winter walk. Then ate good soup. Came back and finished the Weekly Strategy Session.
Now I am tiredt. I shall light a fire and brood next to it until morning time.
Know this — the fate of the entire market lies in NVIDIA’s hands.

Here is strategy session I make for to enjoy and trade well maybe you love it.
Stocklabs Strategy Session: 02/22/21 – 02/26/21
I. Executive Summary
Raul’s bias score 3.33, medium bull. Rally through end of Monday then choppy. Then look for third reaction to NVIDIA earnings Wednesday after the bell to dictate direction into the second half of the week.
II. RECAP OF THE ACTION
Markets closed Monday for President’s Day. Holiday shortened week kicked off with a gap up to new highs. Sellers pressed into and erased the gap then continued lower through Wednesday morning. Big chop for the rest of the week with sellers pressuring the tape into Friday’s close.
The last week performance of each major index is shown below:
Rotational Report:
Rotations a bit mixed but key sectors like Tech and Discretionary were lower.
slightly bearish
For the week, the performance of each sector can be seen below:
Concentrated Money Flows:
Industry flows show a balanced ledger last week. Median return reflects this, just slightly negative on the week. Quality industry groups on the positive side the ledger. The median 30-day volume delta remains negative suggesting a subtle outflow of capital from the equity complex.
neutral
Here are this week’s results:

Holidays don’t count
When working through an overbought or oversold 10-day cycle it is important to remember market holidays do not count. This can throw off when we think a cycle is ending. The current overbought cycle triggered on the 12-month algo has been incorrectly noted these last two weeks to end last Friday, the 19th when actually it ends tomorrow, Monday the 22nd at end-of-day.
Note: The next two sections are auction theory.

Bias Book Performance [11/17/2014-Present]:
Contextual sub-indices remain discovery up
Markets fluctuate between two states—balance and discovery. Discovery is an explosive directional move and can last for months. In theory, the longer the compression leading up to a break, the more order flow energy to push the discovery phase.
We are monitoring two instruments, the Nasdaq Transportation Index and the PHLX Semiconductor Index.
Same as last week — transports continued their discovery up phase.
bullish
See below:
Semiconductors continue to discover higher prices. NVIDIA earning out Wednesday after the bell could serve to pivot this entire index.
