Diamonds are always popular this year. Perhaps its time to think about a relationship with the unloved energy services sector. Diamond Offshore Drilling (DO) has broken above a beautiful head/shoulders base this week. The SCTR has soared above 70, the relative strength has broken to new 9 month highs and the MACD has recently pulled back to reset at the zero line and just started to turn up.
I also covered a lot of other Oil Services stocks on the Commodities Countdown with Greg Schnell 2017-12-21. It looks like the Oil Services could kick off the new year with a bang.
Good trading,
