-
00:00:00Good morning, everyone, and welcome to Wednesday Morning.
-
00:00:03It's Stephen Whiteside here from The
-
00:00:05UpTrend.com. Well, the market got off to a rough start on Tuesday.
-
00:00:10There were some things that moved higher,
-
00:00:12including the VIX, which is back on a buy signal as of Tuesday's close.
-
00:00:16We've got the US.
-
00:00:17Dollar index sitting right on the edge of a new daily buy signal.
-
00:00:21And then we've got gold moving higher on Tuesday.
-
00:00:24Making a new high for this move.
-
00:00:27Our mathematical target right now is 1843.
-
00:00:3075.
-
00:00:31If we can take out yesterday's high, then
-
00:00:331875 is both our next daily and weekly price target.
-
00:00:39With the price of gold moving up, we had
-
00:00:41gold stocks moving up on both sides of the border.
-
00:00:43There's the GDX moving up.
-
00:00:45There's the Ishares for the TSX Global
-
00:00:48Gold Index making a new closing high for this move.
-
00:00:51Now, it ended last week on a sell signal,
-
00:00:54and you can see the nice gap open yesterday.
-
00:00:58So if you were about to sell on Tuesday
-
00:01:01morning and you looked at the opening bid and ask, you probably waved off that sell
-
00:01:05signal and just held your position through yesterday's trading activity.
-
00:01:11Now, Barrick, of course, the big player on
-
00:01:14the TSX made a new closing high for this move yesterday.
-
00:01:17And the only gold stock on the S&P 500
-
00:01:20actually was the biggest winner on the S&P 500 yesterday.
-
00:01:24We see Newmont making a new closing high for this move.
-
00:01:28Our next mathematical target is $50.
-
00:01:30We're trading just above that in the pre market this morning.
-
00:01:34Of course, if you trade Newmont, you know
-
00:01:36we're coming up to the 200 day moving average.
-
00:01:38We're also coming up to an open gap from back in July.
-
00:01:42And so the top of that open gap was at.
-
00:01:48Unlike the major US
-
00:01:49Indices, the Canadian market was able to
-
00:01:52move higher yesterday on the back of rising gold prices.
-
00:01:56Looking at the Ishares for the TSX 60, we need to close on Wednesday above 29.
-
00:02:0146. And we've got a nice open gap just above
-
00:02:04that level that could hold this market in check.
-
00:02:07Now, going in the opposite direction of
-
00:02:10gold was crude oil, which is down over 3% yesterday.
-
00:02:13It is down again in the pre market this
-
00:02:15morning and may end Wednesday on a sell signal, joining natural gas, which was
-
00:02:21down over 10% on Tuesday, making a new low for this move.
-
00:02:25And we saw a big sell off in energy stocks on both sides of the border.
-
00:02:29There's the Ishares for the TSX 60, making a new low for this move yesterday.
-
00:02:33Back on a sell signal as of Tuesday's close, also trading below the recent lows.
-
00:02:39So still projecting lower prices here.
-
00:02:42I saw some people talk about possible head and shoulders here.
-
00:02:46You've got the head up here. You've got a left shoulder.
-
00:02:48You've got a right shoulder.
-
00:02:50You take the distance from there to there.
-
00:02:52And that would take us back down to the
-
00:02:55lows from back in July if this head and shoulders pattern continues to unfold.
-
00:03:01Right now, we are still projecting lower prices here, down to the $14 level.
-
00:03:05We'll just have to see how that works out.
-
00:03:08Now, in the US.
-
00:03:09Energy stocks held up a little better.
-
00:03:11They have not broken down below the recent lows.
-
00:03:13We'll have to see if those lows continue to act as support.
-
00:03:18Now, the biggest losers that people are
-
00:03:20talking about on Wednesday morning are Apple and Tesla.
-
00:03:24There's a new low for Apple.
-
00:03:26Our next target to the downside, if we start breaking down below 125, is 118.
-
00:03:3175.
-
00:03:32Now, Apple appears to move a lot slower
-
00:03:35than Tesla, and they are two completely different stocks.
-
00:03:39The average two range on Apple is 3.66% right now, and you can see how wide the
-
00:03:44flypaper channel is, which is currently acting as resistance.
-
00:03:48So any rally here, we would expect to get caught in the flypaper channel.
-
00:03:52Now, if you compare that to Tesla, first
-
00:03:56of all, the width of the flypaper channel is dramatically smaller.
-
00:04:00So, you know it's a much more nimble stock than Apple is.
-
00:04:04And you can see, mathematically speaking,
-
00:04:06the average true range is just under 10% at the moment.
-
00:04:10So being down over 12% on the day is a
-
00:04:14little more than the average true range at the moment.
-
00:04:16But it's not that unexpected to see that happen.
-
00:04:22So when we're looking at Tesla, our next mathematical target is 93, 75.
-
00:04:28Of course, the market is going to be looking to see if $100 can hold.
-
00:04:32That's a big round number, and it'll be very interesting, and it'll be very sad
-
00:04:37for the market if we start breaking down below $100.
-
00:04:41Okay, folks, that is all for Wednesday morning's presentation.
-
00:04:45Currently, the Dow is up about 44 points.
-
00:04:48We do have some economic numbers coming up
-
00:04:50this morning that could add to the pre market volatility, but so far, things are
-
00:04:55looking fairly quiet out there on Wednesday morning.
-
00:04:58Have a great day, folks.
-
00:04:59Next time you'll hear my voice is on Thursday morning.
-
00:05:02And at that time, we'll take a closer look at the Canadian stock market.
-
00:05:35Thank you.
