Nvidia Goes Parabolic

February 7, 2024 By in NVDA, Semiconductors, SOXS, SOXX

Latest Trendline @ 86,000%, Annualized

Any day now, the bubble pops (not advice, not a recommendation).

NVDA, may have even topped-out today (or possibly will at the open tomorrow)

We had at least two recent, ‘mee-too’ recommendations (providing contrarian signals) for the high flyer; links here and here.

As we’ll see in the chart below, NVDA appears to be in a blow-off top with ever-increasing rates of ascent.

Nvidia, NVDA, Daily Close

This is what tends to happen during a mania top.

Obviously, the latest trendline, rising at +86,000% on an annualized basis, is not sustainable for the long term.

At this juncture, anything can happen. 

NVDA, already had a tremendous bull move from the recent lows of October 14th last year (posted low of, 108.13); realistically, how much upside is left?

Depending on tomorrow’s action, we’ll discuss a potential (short-sale) set-up in the SOXX.

DHI Bounce … Will It Hold?

February 3, 2024 By in DHI, Real Estate, Spring-to-Up-Thrust, Wyckoff

Friday’s Action: ‘Spring-to-Up-Thrust’

There’s a lot of ‘waiting’ in the markets; waiting for the right time, the right set-up.

The last update on D.R. Horton (DHI) said to watch for a test of resistance and possible Fibonacci time correlation.

Well, we got the test.

As for Fibonacci, it shifted to a potential low-to-high sequence; the low on January 24th, to the high on Friday, was 8-Days.

Friday’s action was a minor ‘spring-to-up-thrust. 

The prior session low was penetrated as well as the high with an overall lower close.

All of which brings us to the chart.

D.R. Horton, DHI, Weekly

Looking at the chart, it’s self-explanatory.

We’re in a terminating wedge that’s in a ‘throw-over’.

If price action gets below the upper wedge boundary, it’s a confirmation. That in turn, would suggest much lower prices ahead (not advice, not a recommendation).

Note the massive down-thrust. We have to go all the way back to the ‘event’, to see anything similar.

Someone’s Betting Big on Biotech

February 2, 2024 By in Biotech, BIS, Gold & Silver, Gold Miners, IBB, JDST

Watch The Volume

There’ve been strange ‘goings on’ in the biotech sector.

Not on the long side, but the short side.

Big money moves slowly, is patient. It takes time to establish a strategic position (not advice, not a recommendation).

That’s what could be happening going short biotech as we’ll see below.

Biotech Leveraged Inverse Fund, BIS Daily

The BIS fund attempts to provide -2X leverage on the sector fund IBB.

It’s not heavily traded with daily volume typically low; that is, until a couple of weeks ago.

Starting on January 22nd, and for the next two weeks, someone has traded a million-share block (in total), possibly betting on the downside of IBB.

As can be seen from the chart, similar block volumes are nowhere to be found.

This type of activity is not unlike the ‘mystery volume‘ that showed up in the JDST.
