Now that I am back from vacation, I thought we would mix it up for you all and do the Daily as a video a couple of times per week, so that I can explain the charts in more detail and speak directly to all of you. We will continue with the usual format the other days of the week.

I hope you enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed making it.

For today, I appear on camera with the Granddad of the Economic Modern Family and as a bonus, also with his dog. I know we can all learn a lot from him, so make sure to stick around until the end of the video. I will switch to the charts and go through technical analysis on both IWM and FRO (Frontline) for you.

Key Takeaways

  • IWM is technically perfect, using price, moving averages, momentum, mean reversion and leadership indicators.
  • IWM is the key indicator to watch for the strength or weakness of rallies and selloffs.
  • Frontline, Gramps' dog, is a stock in the IWM basket, well outperforming and very interestingly set up.
