Pete’s Notes:
Tough to find clean trades on the daily charts with the back-and-forth action.
The global news has been so chaotic that you are forced to find reference points intra day. Nothing wrong with that but changes the game planning a little.
DDD displayed what we call exhaustion volume yesterday. Significant spike in trading volume after a parabolic move. This is confirmed because it was also preceded by a weekly down trend. This chart pattern combo of price action and volume is one to print out and put in your trading plan.
Apple Inc.AAPL shares are falling — down over 2 percent at one point — on a day when most peers are in the green. Aside from chatter of a technical correction, the Goldman Sachs desk has shared some commentary on the stock.
The firm said it’s “getting questions on rollover” in Apple, adding that there are several factors that might be responsible for the price decline.
