Final results are in for @USICOfficial completion and happy to share that I came in 3rd place with a 153% return in the money manager division! Humbled to have competed against so many talented traders. Congratulations to Law Wi-Sum for an incredible first place finish.
We have posted the preliminary final standings for the 2024 competition on financial-competitions.com/. We will wait a few days for any late reports or corrections. Late entrants for the 2025 competition are welcome and are tracked from the close on the day they enter.
We got the follow through day yesterday on QQQ, up 2.3% on heavier volume rally attempt from Friday is confirmed. Back above the 200 day as well which helps. With this morning’s pullback, maybe that sets a higher low. Will be watching that to see how we close.
Charts are still a mess in general and I want to see what emerges as leadership over the next few days. Looking for tighter setups, will go slow here until stocks start setting up properly.
Last week the market gave us a real washout.
Friday, the QQQ put in Day 1 of a new rally attempt. That doesn't make it a bottom — it makes it a watch. The follow-through day, if it comes, can't happen before Wednesday.
Patience. Wait for confirmation.
Would be good to see volatility come down as well.
Also watching for clues when you start hearing people talk about the market “crash” that have never talked about the market. A good contrarian indicator.

Watching this rebound to see if it has legs. The fact we are under the 200 day on QQQ this sell-off may take some time to turn typically days to week’s. Need to be patient, but charts in general are a mess watching to see what will emerge as leadership when we turn.
A big few days coming up in the market
FOMC and earnings and midterms and potentially some updates with the war in Iran. Lots of worry for the market to chew on will have to see how it reacts .
Overall still not healthy and not a lot of great looking charts but that can change as we get through these news events.
Looking for tighter setups in the charts.

As the market gets frothy like this, I like to remember a quote I heard “it’s not how much you can make but how much you can keep”. Good time to tighten stops and/or sell into strength.

During this difficult time in the market it’s important to keep your psychology positive. Remember this volatility will lead to an opportunity in due time. Focus is to see what stocks are holding best as those will be where opportunities will arise from when conditions change.
Been watching $ALAB it looks nice if it can break $190 with some volume. One to keep an eye on. It broke the down trend line and has been consolidating in a tight channel for a few weeks. All MA’s are also close together.
Been watching $ALAB to break its down trend. It looks interesting here as it washed out weak holders today and reversed strongly. One to watch if it can get over $182.50ish.
