Our New "Getting Started" Series, Now Online!
Earlier this year, we launched our "Getting Started with StockCharts" email series, sent to all new StockCharts members when they first sign up. This set of seven informational emails was specifically designed to guide new StockCharts members through all of the tools and features on the site, and help them get the most out of their StockCharts membership. After an overwhelmingly positive response to this series, we've realized that this helpful information is valuable to all StockCharts members, not just our new subscribers. So, we've recently created a new online version of our "Getting Started with StockCharts" series, which can be found in the Support Center! We strongly encourage all StockCharts users to explore these helpful articles. Click Here to explore the "Getting Started" series now!

The USA has been a bit of an island in terms of the global markets. It continues to push above previous all-time-highs and usually leads global markets higher. This week is an interesting week as Germany, India, Canada, and Australia are all trying to break through to new highs. Notice the spike in the German market on the last high in 2015. It rolled over the next week and it has taken |

The FOMC will be meeting to discuss a potential rate hike in less than two weeks. A hike would continue the hawkish tone that began when the FOMC increased interest rates in December 2015 for the first time in nine years. It was about six months later that the 10 year treasury yield ($TNX) began its ascent after first printing a double bottom. Check out this 10 |

The rise in the major indexes since the election has been stunning. The S&P alone is up over 15% in just over 3 months. That would be a terrific year by any measure. The Dow was up 18% since the election at its all time high on Wednesday, And the NASDAQ was up 17% during the same period when it hit its all time high on Wednesday. In looking at the Dow I am seeing things that I haven't seen... |

During the DecisionPoint Report webinars I've added a "chart spotlight". For those of you who were members of the original DecisionPoint website, you probably remember Carl's "Chart Spotlight" on Fridays.
