[Trade Alert] Another Flat Week

April 29, 2018 by Don Roth

The weekly chart of SPY shows a pretty flat close again. If price continues to compress it will build pressure for a likely large breakout…one way or the other.

Nothing much going on with price action except a little testing of directional strength for which there is none…SPY, DIA, QQQ.

Let’s get rid of a couple of losers.

MJ just can’t catch a bid. I recommend selling it.

Freeport-McMoran Inc (FCX) weekly

FCX got slammed last week. I recommend selling it.

I don’t think it’s a good time to be any more aggressive. Sit tight and continue to hold all other open positions.

Trade Smart,

Don
