The current Dogs are: CVX, CAT, VZ, PFE, CSCO, IBM, BA, MRK, INTC, XOM. Take a look at each one of those names on a DAILY CHART. Set only ONE Exponential moving average on the chart. Just one. Nothing else. A 33 Exponential Moving Average, offset by 3. As soon as you get a Daily Close of any of those stocks, above that 33 Exponential moving average, buy the...

I'll publish another chart in...
What do you make of this pattern of volume in Merck MRK here on the daily chart?
Each time this has happened since January it has moved higher, but I think it is distribution by a massive seller, akin to the days of Jesse Livermore. It is so unusual that I'd have to say in my nearly 30 years of watching charts that I haven't seen a chart look like this before. ...
