Dec 28th 2018 Free Friday Pre market prep



Good morning
Equities set a record on Wednesday with the 1000 point move higher but it was yesterdays action that really impressed me and could be the type of action to indicate we are trying to find some sort of bottom. Equities were looking like they were going to give up all the gains from Wed with the Dow down over 600 points, then without warning there was a powerful reversal and equities came roaring back to close out the day in the green. The markets remain guilty until proven innocent and it is important to recognize that bounces will be swift and dramatic the more oversold equities become but that does not mean the trend lower is over. There is a lot of work that needs to be done before we can declare being out of the market decline or the bear market in some sectors. It looks like we are going to have a gap up day this morning as equities are up in premarket signaling strong gains. Lets see if the gains hold or if we have another volatile day with dramatic swings in both directions. Gap up days can be very challenging make sure you have a plan and play size appropriate for the kind of market we are in.
