COMMENT

Market. He likes the fact there are new highs being made on the short term charts. Not a lot of enthusiasm, but good signs. Over the past year the S&P500 has retraced to the 50% mark between the high in January and low in February. All the recent lows are trending higher, which is cautiously supportive. He is holding more cash than normal.

COMMENT

Baytex versus HMMJ. There is no correlation between these two. BTE-T looks fine technically as he thinks WTI should return back above $70 before year end. The recent breakout is positive, especially since it was basing around $3.50. He does not understand the cannabis market, so can’t render an opinion. “You can’t make an iPhone in your basement, but you can grow marijuana.” He thinks demand is already met, so he would only hold a small lot of HMMJ-T to talk about at cocktail parties.

COMMENT

He used this as a proxy for the Canadian financial sector. Definitely in a downward trend with lower lows and lower highs. Maybe a good time to buy, but would be speculative at this point.

DON'T BUY

He thinks this chart looks weak right now. The move below a gap up back in November is worrisome. He would not be buying right now. He sees support around $79 with resistance at $87.

BUY

A very good looking chart. It has a nice upward trend and he sees it as a buy. A 50 day moving average would be a good reduce point to lock in gains and the 100 day as a stop. He likes that it is breaking into new highs. A hard stop would be $142.

BUY

First Canadian company trading over $1000. The chart looks really good from the early-April rally point. It is looking a little over-extended and could be subject to a pause. A 50 day moving average would be a good reduce point to lock in gains and the 100 day as a stop.

DON'T BUY

A smaller company that has entered into a wide consolidation range. The volume is not as high as he would like. It is encouraging to see the successful test at $2.70. He would use this as the exit point. There is no strong trend – he would pass.

BUY

Very good looking chart in a good up trend. He has had good success trading this in the past. The uptrend today looks sustainable. A small company, so be careful on holding only a small position. He would use $2.35 as a stop.

WEAK BUY

He has a fundamental screener and he thinks it screens well. This is following a similar trend that he sees in many energy sector stocks at the moment. He thinks there are better oil sands based companies to choose from. He likes the new recent high. He likes the oil and gas sector. He expects WTI to be over $70 by year end. He would set a $7 exit price with an upper objective near $9. (Analysts’ price target is $10)

DON'T BUY

Not a great looking chart. It is in a sideways trend and the highs are lower. He would prefer Calfrac, due to its better up trend. He could see this drop to $2.80 and would not be a buyer until it moved back above $3.50. (Analysts’ price target is $5)

HOLD

There is a relatively tight $40 by $44 trading range. If it drops below $40.60, he would get out. He sees resistance at $44. Hold it for the dividend. Yield 4.1%.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

The chart is not demonstrating enthusiasm. A pullback may come back to $48 as an entry and sees resistance at $53. He likes the fundamentals. Yield 1.5%.

HOLD

He owns this one. Fundamentally not a lot going on. For the past 1-2 years the price has not advanced substantially. It is a hold for now. He wants to see it go above $48. His reduce point is $41.

DON'T BUY

He is impressed as how this non-tech stock advanced so well last year. Tremendous growth. It will likely track the Dow more now. He would not be a buyer from a technical perspective now. He sees support at $170 and resistance at $200.
