Summary

closing hour action: swinging from 3604 to break a new intra low, as s/t momentum continued to weaken. Yellow gap remains within range for Thursday.

*awaiting earnings from NVDA.

… and that concludes Wednesday. It was a day of considerable chop, leaning distinctly weak into the close. The s/t cyclical setup favours the bears… if only for early Thursday.


notable stock: BA

A major reversal, but still s/t bullish, and holding massive net monthly gains.

notable stock: DKNG

Underlying m/t buying interest, with yesterday seeing Loop Capital touting ‘buy to $100’.

notable stock: ZM

Zoom soared just after 2pm. No news I’m aware of… just a sporadic jump with shorts covering.  The stock is arguably still floor building after cooling from the Oct’ $588s.

Here… it was yet another day of grey horror. Whilst the city remains locked down, at least I can order just about anything I want, not least another box from Corsair.

Have a good evening
