In equities, Dollar General (DG $222) and Dollar Tree (DLTR $163) both topped earnings projections and raised their guidance, while NVIDIA (NVDA $179) also beat forecasts but lowered its revenue outlook. In economic news, first quarter GDP was unexpectedly revised to a larger contraction than reported earlier, unemployment claims declined and pending home sales dropped more than expected. Gold and oil prices rallied, the USD/dollar slipped and treasuries were mixed.

This eagerness is demonstrated when the daily range expands beyond the normal trading range due to buyers' willingness to purchase a stock at higher and higher prices during the day. Looking at range from a bullish perspective, it's always good to see range expansion as a stock sets new highs, and range contraction during the expected pullbacks. The opposite is true if you are a bear . . . ************************** THE TECHNICAL ANALYST ************************** This section contains important technical data for the three major market averages -- the S&P 500, the Nasdaq Comp Index, and the Dow Industrial Average.

You can judge your effectiveness by how skillfully you move in and out of the market each time you act on an entry or exit signal. Preparation and practice is necessary to avoid delays or mistakes at the point of action. It is helpful to write down the exact required steps in advance, so you will know exactly what to do before you need to do it. When the time arrives, don't wait; always be decisive. Keep records of your results so you can correct any glitches that may arise. This disciplined approach keeps you focused on a repetitive process to prevent execution errors and produce favorable results over time. *********************************** STOCKS COVERED IN THIS ISSUE *********************************** COMMUNICATION SERVICES SECTOR AMC Networks Inc. (AMCX: Communication Services/Entertainment) - BULLISH BOUNCE. The charts for AMCX show that despite the downward pressure from sellers recently, the weekly uptrend is still going strong. Buyers showed up again on Thursday, resulting in the early stages of a rebound that started near moving average support. The resulting Bullish Bounce set-up offers a potential entry point for a long play. Set your trigger to BUY shares at 40.03, and follow your entry with a trailing stop of 3.11. Tighten it to 1.56 when a 3.46 profit is reached. AMCX ended the latest session at 38.94. Earnings Report Date: Aug 04, 2022. Beta: 0.97. Market-Cap: 1.671B. Optionable. PLDT Inc. (PHI: Communication Services/Telecom Services) - BULLISH BOUNCE. Looking a bit frayed after sliding downhill in recent sessions, on Thursday PHI seemed intent on initiating a rebound. With moving average support nearby, PHI is at a logical place for Bulls to regroup and extend the familiar uptrend that shareholders have become accustomed to. On continued buying, plan on taking long entries with a BUY at 38.78. Manage risk with a 2.43 stop. Tighten your stop to 1.22 when you have a 1.76 profit. PHI ended the day at 37.82. Earnings Report Date: N/A. Beta: 0.01. Market-Cap: 8.169B. Not Optionable. REAL ESTATE SECTOR Outfront Media Inc. (OUT: Real Estate/REIT-Specialty) - SQUEEZE PLAY. The struggle between buyers and sellers has resulted in OUT's narrowest trading range of the past seven sessions. With neither group able to take complete control on Thursday, the stock's short term destiny is up for grabs. You can capitalize on this unusually tight condition by placing both a BUY order at 20.61 and a SELL order at 19.2. Regardless of which order is triggered, cancel the other one and follow your entry with a 1.41 trailing stop. Tighten the stop to 0.71 once you have a 2.54 gain. OUT closed Thursday at 20.16. Earnings Report Date: Aug 03, 2022. Beta: 1.71. Market-Cap: 3.306B. Optionable. TECHNOLOGY SECTOR Squarespace, Inc. (SQSP: Technology/Software-Infrastructure) - SQUEEZE PLAY. In certain stocks a tightly constricted price range is a sign that neither bulls nor bears are confident of winning in the near term. This often means that the side that gives up first causes a quick move in the opposite direction. In these fear dominated skirmishes, opposing traders always benefit from the retreat. In the Squeeze Play setup you can actually play both sides of the inevitable surge. SQSP traders reached this state of stand-off on Thursday with the tightest range of the past seven days. You can take advantage of their efforts by placing a low risk BUY trigger at 21.31 and a SELL short trigger at 19.35. After one of the two orders is filled, cancel the un-triggered order and place a trailing stop at 1.96 which can be tightened to 0.98 on a 4.12 gain. SQSP closed Thursday at 20.34. Earnings Report Date: N/A. Beta: N/A. Market-Cap: 2.846B. Optionable.
