A constrained, volatile market extracts a hidden cost from disciplined traders — not through large losses, but through a cons

Written by Christopher Hall, AdvDipFP | Authorised Representative, AFSL 526688 | May 2026 Steel is indispensable to building the clean energy infrastructure the world is racing to construct. Wind turbines, electric vehicle supply chains, transmission grids and offshore energy platforms all require vast quantities of it. Yet steel production accounts for approximately 8% of total global energy system emissions and remains structurally dependent on metallurgical coal. For ASX t

The stocks that lead every recovery are not the biggest bouncers from

Written by Christopher Hall, AdvDipFP | Authorised Representative, AFSL 526688 | Updated April 2026 Analysis sourced from Gary Glover (AR 259215). The IBD Power Trend is one of the most precisely defined concepts in momentum trading — a named, rule-based market condition developed by Investor's Business Daily that signals when momentum traders should operate at maximum aggression. Triggered when three specific conditions around the 21-day and 50-day moving averages align sim

Written by Christopher Hall, AdvDipFP | Authorised Representative, AFSL 526688 | Updated April 2026 Analysis sourced from Gary Glover (AR 259215) Repeating stock patterns — the tendency of the same stock to form the same setup across multiple market cycles — are one of the most overlooked edges in momentum trading. When a stock forms a VCP, it is likely to form another. When it forms a cup and handle, it will probably form one again. This happens because the same institution

Written by Christopher Hall, AdvDipFP | Authorised Representative, AFSL 526688 | Updated April 2026 Analysis sourced from Gary Glover (AR 259215). The 50-day moving average is the single most important dividing line in momentum trading — separating stocks under institutional control from those abandoned by it. Applied as a standalone system on ASX stocks, it delivers a mechanical entry when price crosses above it, a clear stop when price drops back through it, and — combined

Written by Christopher Hall, AdvDipFP | Authorised Representative, AFSL 526688 | Updated April 2026 A B-wave trade is an early entry technique used in momentum trading, where a trader buys during the partial recovery phase of a three-wave ABC correction — before a full base has formed above the 50-day moving average. B-wave setups are high-risk unless three conditions align simultaneously: the stock demonstrates relative strength against the broader ASX, the bullish trend str

The midterm election year stock market cycle is a recurring seasonal pattern in which US equity markets peak around April, weaken through to October, then recover into year-end. This cycle has repeated across the majority of midterm years since 1950. In 2026, a specific variant has activated — the B-cycle inversion — in which markets sold off INTO April rather than topping there. Historical analysis of five to six comparable cases shows approximately 80 per cent held gains th

The Short Answer: How to Find ASX Stocks Before the Recovery When ASX markets sell off, the best post-recovery performers are not found in the wreckage. They are found near their 52-week highs. Christopher Hall, AFSL-licensed trading educator at Finer Market Points, has developed a proprietary six-step filter — the Momentum Profile system — that identifies these stocks systematically before the market turns. The three critical data points are: proximity to the 63-day high (wi

When every major index breaks key technical levels simultaneously, the instinct is to focus on what is falling. Experienced momentum traders know the more important question is: what isn't falling? In a recorded market analysis session on 10 March 2026, Gary Glover (AR 259215), Authorised Representative of Novus Capital Limited (AFSL 238 168), identified two sectors showing unexpected relative strength on the ASX — agricultural stocks and selected discretionary retailers — at
