$LYG Lloyd’s Update, March 11

(LYG: 4.46 0.00%) Lloyd’s

Three attempts to get above resistance.

lyg

And today it’s finally above that level. Hopefully will build support here and go on to fill the gap.

  • 13ema is turning up and should cross over 34ema soon.
  • Oscillators and volume look good.

$BEE Target Hit, I’m Out

Twice I referred to my (BEE: 3.78 0.00%) target being around $4:
BEE post #1 and BEE post #2

I got out today at $3.90 (yes, seriously, 52-week high to the penny). Modest 40% return since October. Super proud because I have NEVER held anything that long with that kind of positive return :)

No plans to re-buy it. Got nothing against BEE, just undecided at the moment.

Next stock that I really want to succeed is (LYG: 4.46 0.00%).

Also, liking (PCC: 7.76 0.00%), PMC Commercial Trust with 8%+ dividend, but unfortunately it has no options.

In addition to LYG, still watching SPX/SPY.

$BEE Inverse Head-and-Shoulders

(BEE: 3.78 0.00%) Strategic Hotels & Resorts

I now have technical substantiation of my $4 target – inverse head-and-shoulders on the daily chart.
Volume pattern still shows accumulation.

I’m not getting attached to the stock, and really welcome any negative comments on this trade idea.

$AVD Falling Wedge, Bullish Chart Pattern

(AVD: 6.87 0.00%), American Vanguard Corp.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m seeing a falling wedge on this daily chart. Though it’s bad that the stock didn’t do well during the Magnificent Rally. Shall watchhh….

avd

Yep, qualifies.

$IYR Distribution, $SRS Accumulation

Click charts to enlarge

(SRS: 21.76 0.00%)

Positive volume pattern showing accumulation – higher on up days, lower on down days.
MACD and others are cooperating.

TA is useless on Ultra ETFs? Ok, let’s see how IYR is doing.

(IYR: 53.25 0.00%)

IYR yields almost 9%! That’s for the positive.
Now negative: volume pattern is just the opposite of SRS, showing distribution (higher volume on down days, lower volume on up days).
Closed below 20ma which has been a pretty good support level during this rally. But need to see follow-through on that.
Today’s close qualifies for a Bollinger-Band-crash trade, so IYR *should* bounce tomorrow. Doesn’t have to, but should.
