If you understand what a reversal day looks like, trading can be simple! Some people email me asking how I "knew" the market was about to reverse.  I've been getting emails like that for well over a decade (don't forget when most people really started using email!).

One of the smartest investors I know said "you can almost smell the quantitative easing in the air." For sure, investors are fully focused on tomorrow's Fed decision, outlook and press conference.  But, even ahead of the Fed's meeting announcement at 12:30, the FOMC forecasts at 2:00, or the chairman's press conference at 2:15, we will have a KEY indication…

I took a poll in one of my recent webinars asking how many people use sentiment indicators, and more than half said they did NOT!! Words can’t describe how surprised I was, as these are some of the most important indicators an investor can use.  Too much bearishness is bullish -- but there is one important caveat.
