TradingMarkets Chart of the Day
For today’s Chart of the Day, let’s take a look at the
Stocks Ready To Drop list published each day on the
Indicators
page. These are the stocks that today made
new 10-day highs that are still in an downtrend as they are trading below their
200-day moving average. They are sorted in rank according to how over-extended
they are vs. their 10-day moving average. This is a simple pullback
strategy; look for stocks that are strongly trending to move back against the
trend, creating an opportunity for a better buy-in.
