Tactical Playbook Market context and trade ideas for the active trader

Week of 16 February 2016

▶▶ Global stocks were soft last week, as nearly all major indexes booked significant losses. EM stocks are showing some outper-
formance, but this is most likely mean reversion and not a sign to focus on these countries.

▶▶ Watch for a rally in stocks this week. The strength of the rally will give good information about character and tone of this
market. A sharp rally, recovering much of the recent damage, is somewhat unlikely, but would be an extremely bullish signal. Adam Grimes

Tactical Playbook, Week of 16 February 2016

Market Insight
Action this week offers us a good backdrop against which to consider the concept
of followthrough. This is a facet of market action that can be difficult to quantify at
times, but can also give good insight into the character of market moves and future
market direction. There is immediately relevant perspective here for swing traders,
and also importance for longer term investors and portfolio allocators.

Followthrough
Quite simply, followthrough is the ability of a sharp move in a market to lead to
another move in the same direction. We might “package” this tendency in a few dif-
ferent ways: we can look at pullbacks, which are patterns that we assume should set
up another thrust in the same direction as the move that set up the pullback. From
a quantitative perspective, we also can talk about asymmetrical volatility, look at
mean reversion, serial correlation of returns, and a number of other factors, but the
core understanding is this: when a dominant group controls the market, that market
trends. When a market trends, it will do so with good followthrough.
Take a look at the chart of the S&P 500, and note that the dark orange arrows high-

U.S. Equities
▶▶ We are still looking at a big picture bullish setup for stocks, but with the pos-
sibility of significant distortions and further downside in the short term.
▶▶ Interestingly, minor bullish patterns continue to develop on weekly charts,
as long lower shadows show buying pressure. This buying pressure could, of
course, fail, but it is a significant headwind for shorts (and likely very con-
structive for bulls.)
▶▶ The coming bounce will give further insight into the balance of power in this
market. Any sharp short-term rally could develop important, longer-term
significance. Do not fade strength in this market.
▶▶ To further illustrate the conflict in current conditions: the previous com-
ments have been bullish, but short-term swing traders should be focusing on
short or managing existing shorts.

Equity Indexes: Short-Term


▶▶ This is a time where we recommend not focusing too much on higher timeframe
influences (i.e., complications), and simply focusing on intraday structure.
▶▶ Though it might not be obvious, the best reading of this market is as being in a
range, with attempted breakouts above and below.
▶▶ Contrary to the claims of some “charting systems”, there are no clear edges from
these multiple tests of ranges. Based on other structural factors, we would favor
the immediate upside, but best plan is to let early morning character set the tone
for the day.
▶▶ This is a market in breakout mode: any sharp intraday move away from the range
is likely to lead to multiple trend legs in that direction. There should be an edge
to holding both longs and shorts overnight, if the day closes with a strong trend
move.

U.S. Equity Sectors


▶▶ We have no adjustments to sector biases or allocations this week.
▶▶ This year’s decline has, predictably, seen strong inflows in defensive sectors.
Overweighting these sectors would be a blatant market call. For some port-
folios, this may make sense, but it is important to realize that moving to over-
weights on defensive sectors is essentially the same as reducing equity risk.
▶▶ This is not what we want to do, as our longer-term bullish bias and context
are both clear and intact.
▶▶ We favor a more defensive stance toward stocks in the short-term, but would
prefer to accomplish that via tactical positioning (i.e., exiting underperform-
ing positions, not buying, and hedging, if appropriate), rather than through
sector tilts at this time.
▶▶ We maintain overweights in Technology and Consumer Discretionary.

Tactical Playbook, Week of 16 February 2016

U.S. Individual Stocks


▶▶ We think two guiding principles are appropriate for swing traders this week:
First, look to reduce overall activity and exposure.
–– There are times in which we might take trades with correct stops without
strong supporting entry factors, but this is not that time. Now, focus on only
the best setups and look to reduce the overall amount of the portfolio that is
at risk.
–– Second, focus on both long and short exposure, and work to tighten stops
rather quickly as trades develop.
▶▶ For both longs and shorts, best setups are flags, and flags that have held together
well in recent market action.
▶▶ Should the market rally strongly, best shorts will be set up in those names that fail
to rally with the market.
▶▶ Due to sector flows, a disproportionate number of long candidates are in Utilities
and Staples. From a swing trading perspective, we might wish this were not so,
but this is where the opportunity currently is in the market. Should these long
trades “work”, we can look to rotate out of them and into more cyclical stocks as
market conditions develop.

Example Trade Entries


▶▶ Buy WR on a breakout above 45.99 against an initial stop around 43.14.
▶▶ Buy WMT on a breakout above 66.99 against an initial stop around 63.57.
▶▶ Sell (short) NVDA on a breakdown below 24.58 against an initial stop around
28.12.
▶▶ Sell (short) OKE on a breakdown below 18.72 against an initial stop around
25.96.

Key: Near (yellow) and Far (red) stops for daily bars. Colored band beneath the chart indicates trend condition (bright green to bright red = strong bull to strong bear trend.)

Tactical Playbook, Week of 16 February 2016

Global Stocks
▶▶ Global stocks are trading in tight correlation, and the process of untangling
those correlations is fraught with difficulty.
▶▶ For swing traders, it makes sense to realize that stocks are basically “one buck-
et” of risk. Any strong divergences are likely to fall along the DM/EM axis,
rather than geography, and most traders are best served by focusing on mar-
ket conditions in liquid, common indexes.
▶▶ For longer-term allocators, recent EM outperformance demands some atten-
tion. To be clear, we do not think that there is justification for overweighting
EM slices in portfolios. Recent rallies in these indexes are probably due to
mean reversion (in previously, severely underperforming indexes.)
▶▶ Recent market action has seen failures on both the long and short side. Lon-
ger-term bullish setups are intact, but we urge short-term caution.

Tactical Playbook, Week of 16 February 2016

Rates & FX
▶▶ The US Dollar index now most clearly reads as being in a large, year-long
trading range. (Is it coincidence that this range aligns with a similar period in
US stocks? Probably not.)
▶▶ Short-term, patterns continue to favor the downside in the Dollar.
▶▶ Look for moves in currencies to be sharp and fast, but perhaps with limited
followthrough. Swing traders can use this information to better set stops and
manage active entries.
▶▶ Treasury and Eurobond futures are both in strong uptrends, with no sign of
those trends weakening.

Commodities
Metals:

▶▶ Extreme strength in gold last week, perhaps in a classic “flight to quality”


reaction. Be careful—this move could indicate a short-term exhaustion. We
do not see “easy upside” in precious metals.
Energy:

▶▶ Downtrends are still intact in crude oil. Natural gas is setting up another po-
tential short entry for nimble swing traders.
Foods & Softs:

▶▶ Grains point downward, as do many other food commodities and softs.

Commentary
▶▶ Market conditions are in flux, now more than ever. This is driven by shifts in stock indexes and currencies. For active traders, the bottom line is that this is a period in
which we must look to enter traders with realistic expectations—meaning that many of these trades will likely lose.
▶▶ We are looking to reduce risk both by reducing number of entries and by tightening the stops in open positions aggressively.
▶▶ Watch our daily note for updates as market conditions develop.

Potential entries
▶▶ Sell May sugar futures 13.01, against an initial stop around 13.97.
▶▶ Buy USDZAR 16.50, against an initial stop around 15.19.
▶▶ *All breakout entries should only be held if confirmed by a strong/weak close (for a buy/sell) on the day of trade entry.

Note: These are a distillation of our quantitative and discretionary work. In a sense, they are specific trade examples of our bigger picture tactical themes. Please contact us
