Subscribers also receive market analysis, stock correlation tools, macroeconomic observations, timing tools, and protection from market crashes using Evitar Corte.  

Instructions:

The rules that govern the data in this report are the rules of Technical Analysis.  For example, if MDP is testing support buy signals surface, and resistance is the target.  Conversely, if resistance is being tested, that is a sign to control risk or short, and support would be the downside target accordingly.  In each case, the trigger point is designed to be both an ideal place to enter a position (avoid trading in the middle of a trading channel), and it acts as a level of risk control too.

Swing Trades, Day Trades, and Longer term Trading Plans:

This data is refined to differentiate trading plans for Day Trading, Swing Trading, and Long Term Investing plans for MDP too.  All of these are offered below the Summary Table.

Longer Term Trading Plans for MDP

• Buy MDP slightly over 51.72 target n/a stop loss @ 51.57. Details

The technical summary data tells us to buy MDP near 51.72, but there is no current upside target from the summary table. In this case we should wait until either an update to the summary table has been made (which usually happens at the beginning of every trading day), or until the position has been stopped. The data does tell us to set a stop loss 51.57 to protect against excessive loss in case the stock begins to move against the trade. 51.72 is the first level of support below 58.42, and by rule, any test of support is a buy signal. In this case, if support 51.72 is being tested, a buy signal would exist.

• NONE . Details

NONE .
There are no current resistance levels from the summary table, and therefore there are no Short resistance Plans which tell us to short upon tests of resistance. Resistance levels have broken higher and unless the stock reverses lower and below support levels again short positions look risky.

Swing Trading Plans for MDP

• Buy MDP slightly over 59.86, target n/a, Stop Loss @ 59.69 Details

If 59.86 begins to break higher, the technical summary data tells us to buy MDP just slightly over 59.86, with an upside target of n/a. The data also tells us to set a stop loss @ 59.69 in case the stock turns against the trade. 59.86 is the first level of resistance above 58.42, and by rule, any break above resistance is a buy signal. In this case, 59.86, initial resistance, would be breaking higher, so a buy signal would exist. Because this plan is based on a break of resistance, it is referred to as a Long Resistance Plan.

• Short MDP near 59.86, target 58.04, Stop Loss @ 60.03. Details

The technical summary data is suggesting a short of MDP if it tests 59.86 with a downside target of 58.04. We should have a stop loss in place at 60.03 though in case the stock begins to move against the trade. By rule, any test of resistance is a short signal.
