Here's How We're Trading The S&P And Materials

Todd Gordon of TradingAnalysis.com takes a look at the SPY in today's market analysis.

The stock indexes are selling off for two main reasons. First, the reality of higher interests is starting to set in. The market has been drinking heavily from the Fed's liquidity punch bowl. Is the party over and the hangover about to set in? Second, we are failing at a confluence of Fibonacci and Elliott Wave resistance. Here's how we're trading it with options.

This Stock Could Outperform The Market In The Next Three Months

October proved to be a spectacular month for stocks with the best gains seen since the third quarter of 2011. Historically, the last quarter proves to be a good one for stocks. That is not a guarantee that stocks will go higher, but historically since 1949, stocks have averaged a gain of 4% in Q4. That is followed by a strong Q1 with the average gain of 2%. History is all well and good, but it doesn't necessarily repeat itself in a very systematic fashion every single year.

Here's the stock that I think can do very well in Q4. The stock is TE Connectivity Ltd. (NYSE:TEL). Presently this stock is trading around the $64.90 area and I believe it can move substantially higher in Q4.

Silver Update: Risk/Reward Ratio Favors Longs (1:4)

Aibek Burabayev - INO.com Contributor - Metals


Back in September, I posted a Silver update with the very promising title, "The Time Has Come," where I suggested both target and time for this fading downside move. The target at the $13.7 level hadn’t been reached as buyers did not wait to buy on the dips and had followed Gold to the upside beyond $15, but the time goal (which I stressed in the title) worked out perfectly according to the Fibonacci time zone extension. The downtrend exhaustion appeared in September and it has been really wasting away as not only the low, but also the high of September have both been trapped in the shadow of August (margins have been highlighted in two black dashed parallel horizontal lines). Below the chart, I am going to expand on the prospects of the current reversal.
