Next Week Trading Plan (Aug 28th):
The Oscillators (see Chart Room bottom of page one) suggest the market is near a top. Also, SPX closed at about 1,108 between it's 50 and 200 day MAs (i.e. 1,104 and 1,111). Moreover, the market rallied on light volume recently, which tends to be bearish. However, the intermediate-term indicators (see Chart Room page two) are bullish. So, I plan to buy short-term puts on bounces and buy long-term calls on dips (see Top Stock Picks section). EBAY and the Semis, e.g. SMH and INTC, may be leading indicators on market direction. The Semis are still beaten down. So, I plan to buy SMH and INTC long-term calls on dips.
My portfolio is about $895,000 including over $730,000 in cash.
