Episode notes
Wait For Follow Through Before Getting Aggressive
- Wait for a true follow-through day and avoid trying to scalp gains in a news-driven choppy market.
- Ed Carson recommends "dip the toe in the water" only after heavier-volume strength above key moving averages.
Concrete Technical Targets To Confirm A Rally
- The S&P sits about 2.4% below the 200-day and roughly 5% below the 50-day, setting clear technical thresholds for an upside confirmation.
- IBD looks for a 1%+ daily gain on higher volume plus reclaiming the 200-day.
Equal Weight S&P Shows Relative Breadth Strength
- The equal-weight S&P ETF (RSP) is holding its 200-day line, showing relative breadth strength despite market weakness.
- Ed calls it a relative winner but still an absolute loser given the broader downtrend.
