TG Watkins Hey Market Pilot, Yesterday, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) held a meeting. Promptly afterward the market rocketed to a new all-time high after already doing that for two weeks. This is a bit of bullish insanity. I am hard-pressed to find a time where the market has moved like this after a major pullback … Read more
Hey Market Pilot, On the heels of Tesla (TSLA), Lucid (LCID), and Bloom Energy (BE) having explosive moves, I have been seeing names which support the electric vehicle (EV) space starting to warm up. We know Plug Power (PLUG) has started to move in earnest, but here are a few others. If you are interested … Read more
Hey Market Pilot, When the market catches a trend with energy, it can take a while for things to shift. Especially if you missed the move and have to wait for the next train to arrive. This is mostly the situation I find myself in with the markets being at all-time highs. Taking anything on … Read more
Hey Market Pilot, The indexes have been on a strong rally the last few days and the S&P 500 (SPY) and Nasdaq (QQQ) have pushed higher than I originally expected.

But I have been guiding traders that it’s what comes after that bounce that will determine the next major move. If the SPY is … Read more
Hey Market Pilot, Last week, we saw the market continue down from the inverse trampoline move. That decline was heavy for the week and flagged sideways into more resistance on a 15-minute time frame. This gave us yet another leg down and actually broke the previous lows from Monday, Sept. 20. As for market action, … Read more
Hey Market Pilot, Last week, I stated that I was wary of the market bounce from Monday the 20th’s big drop. The market never goes in a straight line and when we get such a big move down like that, price often needs to retest support from those lows sometime in the future. So the … Read more
Hey Market Pilot, Last week, I wrote a piece about the S&P 500 (SPY) fading below the daily 50 simple moving average (SMA). In that article, I cautioned about shorting the market because I didn’t know how many opportunities there might be. Turns out there was a nice drop, but you either had to be … Read more
