Full Time Profits, February 26th, 2019 – BA, NKE, ETSY

By

The S&P gapped up into the 2800 resistance level and buyers finally seemed to have run out. While the near term rally may not yet be over… I think we’re close. The market has spent a lot of energy rallying up to key resistance without any kind of major pullback. I expect that the correction will be sideways and rotational… not anything like we saw in the Q4 2018 correction.

The best plan of attack now is to start finding your favorite stocks and levels you want to be involved in. Many overextended stocks will still keep their trend and strength into pullbacks, so we want to be ready if and when profit taking shows up.
