What Happened Today?

 

(0:21:15) DecisionPoint Market Indicators: Today Erin did a workshop on the DP Market Indicators. She explained the difference between a "market indicator" and a "technical indicator" -- A market indicator tells you the health of the market in general, while a technical indicator is used on an individual stock, ETF, etc. DecisionPoint created a suite of market indicators that are available in the DecisionPoint Market Indicator ChartPack. Go to "Your Account" if you'd like to manage your ChartPacks and download the DP Market Indicator ChartPack. You'll find all of the information presented today in ChartSchool, but watching this workshop will help you cut through some of the tech talk to understand them better.

 

(0:47:18) Earnings Spotlight: Tom reviewed the charts of recent companies that reported earnings recently.

 

(0:51:53) Ten in Ten Before One: In this regular segment, Tom attempts to review ten charts in ten minutes. Send in your symbol requests via Twitter (@mktwatcherslive) before the show or using the live chat box during the LIVE program and we'll try and add them. We'll also check our email for symbol requests before the show (marketwatchers@stockcharts.com). You'll find all of the charts in the MarketWatchers LIVE ChartList, located at the top of the MarketWatchers blog homepage.

 

(1:12:55) Sentiment Update: Erin reviews the major sentiment polls and DecisionPoint Rydex Ratio to give viewers an idea of what sentiment suggests bullish or bearish for the market.

 

Looking Forward:

Tune in on Monday at 12:00p - 1:30p EST on 1/22 for Monday Set-Ups. Tom and Erin will discuss which charts look hot or not for the upcoming week. You'll also see Erin's "DecisionPoint Report" which will give you a run down on DP indicators and the "Big Four"--Dollar, Oil, Gold and Bonds.

The regular segments, Ten in Ten to One and Mailbag are also on tap for Monday, where we look at your recent questions and symbol requests.

Don't miss it!!
