UPDATE: $IWM Russell 2000 Gaps Down Through Support Levels

Today, the Russell gapped down *again* and this time blew through all support. The market is choppy, and without any clear sense of trend, I would be very hesitant to take a bullish or a bearish stance. Better to wait it out and let the market choose the direction.

$IWM Russell 2000 Resting on Heavy Support

Today, IWM gapped down at the open right at 155.52, and pin-pricked swiftly and deeply right through all three levels of support - an alignment of the 50-day moving average, 200-day moving average, and 61.8% Fibonacci retracement - before recovering and closing green on the day (see chart at the very top).

$TSLA Tesla Chart Stuck in Wide Range

Until price moves out of the rectangle above, the chart offers no definitive direction. The 200 day moving average is flat as...

$ADI Analog Devices Breaking Out to New All Time Highs

Analog Devices (a company I interned for in '99) is breaking out to new multi-decade highs. The price action is certainly characteristic of bullishness in the stock and in the semiconductors in general. If the new high holds here, ADI could push quickly to the
