Watchlist Update: Markets Fail at Key Resistance Level

Published November 7, 2022

The October rally came to an abrupt end last week.

The Nasdaq 100 fell over 7%, and the S&P 500 was down about 4.5%.

Both indexes are failing at their respective 50-day moving averages (MAs).

Even if they were able to push through to the upside, it would be only the first hurdle in returning to a bull market.

As long as the market continues to trade below a declining 50-day MA, it is hard to be overly bullish.

With that in mind, here are three other ideas for short trades I’m watching this week…

Array Technologies, Inc. (Short Idea)

Array Technologies, Inc. (ARRY) has fallen out of favor and is trading against a significant support/resistance level.

I would consider a short trade on ARRY near the $18 level and risk 5%-10% on the trade.

Autohome Inc. (Short Idea)

Different stock. Same strategy…

Autohome Inc. (ATHM) held above its $33 support level all summer.

But after multiple tests, the stock finally broke down and traded lower.

Shares popped Friday morning after the company reported earnings, sending the stock right up against a resistance level as well as the declining 50- and 200-day moving averages.

This is a great place to try a short trade with a tight stop around the $34 area.

DISCLOSURE: I took a short position in ATHM on Friday morning.

NextEra Energy Partners, LP (Short Idea)

Noticing a theme to the setups this week?

NextEra Energy Partners, LP (NEP) is also trading against a key resistance level.

The stock failed here for two months this summer and again in October.

I think it’s worth a stab on the short side to bet on another leg lower.

We all know that those in power are making millions with their uncanny knack for buying into stocks ahead of massive moves.

Brand New Strategy for Profiting from AI Stocks.

There’s a brand-new strategy in 2024 for going after big profits in AI stocks. It has nothing to do with Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta – or any of the big AI stocks the media can’t stop talking about.

It has to do with a fast-moving “backdoor” that has opened in the AI market... A backdoor that could send a very special class of AI stocks rocketing into the stratosphere.
