This Is Why You Should Pay Attention To MACD

National Semiconductor (NSM)
did not give me the result I was looking for.
I don’t like to write
about my own mistakes. But, what did I do wrong?

The stock was pulling back from its
intraday high and nearing the 50% retracement level (from yesterday’s low to
today’s high). I thought NSM was ready to rally out of this pullback. Shortly
after 10:20, NSM took out a declining trendline on increased volume. I
immediately bought it at the market. Unfortunately, this move did not last long
enough to give me profits.

Follow up on NSM

It has stopped out.

Why did I fail? The stock broke above the trendline, but the momentum was still
down as indicated by the MACD.
