My Swing Trading Approach
I didn’t pull the trigger on any new trades yesterday, as I wanted to hold out until today to see whether the market would provide us with the necessary follow through to the upside. I also booked some profits yesterday in one of my trades, as price action faded into the close. I will look to add another position to the portfolio today if the bulls can swing together another solid day to the upside.

Sectors to Watch Today
Telecom was the big winner yesterday, and looking to put in a new higher-high on its existing trend-line off of the 5/31 lows. Utilities breaking out to the upside and through major resistance. Massive bounce out of Staples, thanks in large part to Walmart (WMT) earnings. Industrials sporting a similar path in the short-term to Staples – I suspect that it will see further buying interest. Energy – stay away. No direction in the tech sector and still waffling with finding a clear path forward. Stuck in a narrowing range of lower-highs and higher-lows.
My Market Sentiment
Unable to close above Tuesday’s highs, which would have shown a lot of conviction for the bulls, but it did manage to close above Tuesday’s closing price, which is still a good thing. This market has been back and forth all week long and frustrating for traders in general.
