Doji candlestick patterns on Monday
through Thursday showed traders feared that the the rally may be
coming to an end. Doji patterns occur when the bulls and bears are almost in balance and indicate uncertainty about the future direction of the market. Friday's employment report gave the bulls some momentum and the NASDAQ closed the week with an accumulation day. This was insufficient to give the index a positive gain week over week with a loss of 0.15%. Nevertheless this was a better performance than the DJI and S&P 500. Below average volumes kept the number of breakouts to just 7 this week. However, the star breakout was MOMO which perfectly fitted our recommended strategy criteria. |

MOMO Fitted them perfectly. MOMO is a Chinese dating app that has seen significant growth since its IPO in 2014. You can see this represented in our CANTATA Evaluation below. MOMO was a pick on our cup-and-handle watchlist on Monday and perfectly met our recommended strategy criteria. We issued a breakout alert at 9:45 on Tuesday at a price of 29.94 compared to a breakout price of 27.93. Unfortunately, this alert was 7% above the breakout price, which exceeded our suggested limit of 5% above BoP. However, because it closed above the BoP on massive volume (5 x the 50 dma) this also fit our criteria for a buy at the open on Wednesday. |
