[8:40am ET] The report portion of the Daily Report (DR) was suspended on Oct.13 until the reported is given a face-lift and published in the evening hours following the North American market close.
CTA trader’s conference call notes:
Let us repeat the refrain; early morning weakness encourages bargain hunting, the shallow correction never falling far enough to allow traders to take long positions at comfortable (major support) levels, so every day the frustrated under-invested money managers chase stocks – buying them from Goldman Sachs -- not because they think prices represent value, but only because prices are moving higher. As prices fail once again to follow through on the downside, the shorts are tripping over themselves to cover upside exposure, adding further fuel to the fire, and presto, a rally is born.
Thursday was déjà vu all over again; profit taking on Citigroup (C -5.0%) and Goldman (GS –1.9%) drove futures lower on the opening; however, the selling quickly abated, and buyers methodically pushed prices back into the black by the close (S&P +0.42%).
This type of market action is bullish; your thoughts and feelings about what the market should do only get in the way of objective market analysis. It is what it is. Trading is all about risk management, where preservation of capital is more important than day to day rate of return.
It is human nature, we all know, to focus on potential gains rather than spending time figuring out where and when to bail on a trade. Some successful traders always use hard stops, a fixed percentage drawdown triggering an exit; some use chart support and resistance, or mathematical relationships to identify prices that should not be violated if the anticipated trend is still intact; others use fundamental measures (PE, PEG, price to sales, etc.) to enter a trade and will stay in the trade until one of the important variables change. Their methods may vary but all successful traders realize they are going to be wrong at least 40% of the time, so getting stopped out of a small loss is a cost of doing business. A large loss can be catastrophic; losing 50% of your equity on one trade requires a 100% gain just to climb back to even.
While volume remains tepid, momentum divergences remain plentiful, and many stocks are in distribution zones, the path of least resistance remains higher. We may not agree with the persistence of the rally or whether prices represent good value at these lofty levels, but until stocks actually begin to trace out a pattern of lower highs and lower lows, we have to let the rally run its course.
Have a great day.
