Hello,
I plan/hope to come back to Mastodon in the future, when/if the financial community embrace it, but since today I've been posting my buy & sell posts at Stocktwits (and simultaneously at Twitter)… for now.

All other posts and replies will be only tweeted from my Twitter account exclusively… for now, and hopefully I'll be back to Mastodon in the future, when/if the financial community embrace it.

Here is a little bit about my journey:

Thanks you all for the support given here by Mastodonians, and I wish you all an amazing & meaningful journey!

💪 Stock market today

Wednesday's move marked a 6th subsequent follow-through since the market uptrend got confirmed on Jan. 6 with a solid follow-through day by the Nasdaq and S&P 500.

Meanwhile, the S&P 500 saw its distribution day count fall to 2; the Jan. 18 distribution day got wiped away due to recent price gains.

The Nasdaq's rise helped paced a 1.5% advance by the Russell 2000 and a nearly 1.1% rise by the S&P 500.

Stock market bounced back in force Tuesday after a soft start to the week.

Distribution days have been nonexistent since Jan 6. $SPX currently shows 3, but only 1 had the feeling of 💪 institutional selling... on Jan 18, when the index fell 1.6% in volume.

$IWM rose 2.4% , $QQQ rose 1.5%, $SPY rose 1.5% and $DIA rose 1.1%

An eagerly-awaited Fed meeting, nonfarm payrolls report and Q4 tech earnings have converged into a treacherous week for the stock market. Indexes stalled Monday, trying to digest the new challenges.

$NASDAQ led the way down with a -2% tumble. S&P 500 fell -1.3% but is holding above the 4,000 level and its own 200-day SMA. $DJIA gave up 0.8%. Resistance around 34,000 looks more apparent after Monday's decline.

The stock market ended a good week on a high Friday, even though gains faded into the close.

$NASDAQ fared best again as it rose 1%. It popped >4% for the week and reclaimed its 200-day SMA.

The S&P 500 closed 0.3% higher, giving up some upside into the close. It ended the week with a 2.5% gain. The benchmark index is now pulling away from its 200-day SMA, an important and bullish move.

$QQQ rose 1.0%, $IWM rose 0.5%, $SPY rose 0.2%.

Today $DJIA rose 1.0% $SPX rose 1.9% $NASDAQ rose 2.7% $RUT rose 1.7%

Stock market ended a tough week on a high, with stocks of all stripes surging higher.

With encouraging action at week's end, it makes sense for investors to have 40% to 60% market exposure. But given the risky environment, be ready to reduce this to 20% to 40% if bears regain the upper hand

Yesterday $DJIA dropped -1.1% $SPX dropped -0.2% $NASDAQ rose 0.1% $RUT dropped -0.2%

The $SPX is above the 50-day SMA and testing the 200-day SMA, which marks the dividing line between bull and bear markets. Strong earnings reports this week could bring reluctant bulls off the sidelines, setting up a breakout

Volume edged higher on the Nasdaq and rose on the NYSE. Although the S&P 500's loss was moderate, it was barely enough for a distribution day — the first of the new market uptrend

This busy economic reporting week could move the stock market

The $SPX is above the 50-day SMA and testing the 200-day SMA, which marks the dividing line between bull and bear markets. Strong earnings reports this week could bring reluctant bulls off the sidelines, setting up a breakout.

Per IBD, Volume edged higher on the Nasdaq and rose on the NYSE. Although the S&P 500's loss was moderate, it was barely enough for a distribution day — the first of the new market uptrend. As distribution days go, this one should not be alarming. The mild drop and the context of the market's rise make this less of a concern.

IBD market outlook had switched to "market in confirmed uptrend" as of Friday 1/6 EOD.

Attached updated #IBD50 list.
10 stocks are blue highlighted as they met these 3 criteria:

On Friday: $DJIA rose 0.3%, $SPX rose 0.4%, $NASDAQ rose 0.7%, and $RUT rose 0.6%

$SPX ended with a 2.3% weekly gain. It has mounted both 50-day MA and 200-day line, closing just a hair above the latter. Holding this key level will be an important test of relative strength.

$NASDAQ fared better, with a 0.7% lift. It has mounted its 50-day line but is still 4.8% below the 200-day MA and needs to overcome major overhead supply to add to short-term gains.
