Santa is coming early this year?

Post by Scarfinger »

With headlines from Bloomberg like "Corporate America Is Having Its Best Earnings Season in 13 Years", a potential tax change that's favorable for businesses? and black Friday sales starting earlier and earlier...

My guess is Santa will come early this year. Fingers crossed X

Thanks ScarFingers crossed. A few questions, if I may? When will it end, will it end early, because it started early? And using that same chart, what would you be looking for to signal an exit?
Do you use one of the dailies, with chart analyzing to confirm?

I believe your in search of a mythical being. Possibly an Oracle that can prophesize the future. That's not me.

But with that said... I am using the Monthly seasonal in conjunction with the Daily seasonal. I look at chart patterns for confirmation of positive and or negative "potentials" outcomes.

When will it end. My best guess is January using Monthly/Daily seasonal strategies with an eye out for negative chart patterns like double tops, triangle patterns or bolinger squeezes suggesting potential momentum once there is a break out.

If there is a downturn, how long will it last? A great question that honestly no one can answer. Except for maybe a few stock Oracles...

Oracle Scarfinger,

Can you look into the future and predict that outcome of this Saturday's Apple Cup in Washington State?

No, No, No. I said I am not the Oracle. lol.

No idea about the Apple cup. Looks like it will be a game to definitely watch.

I will predict an Ohio State Buckeye's win over the Wolverines this Saturday. :)
