On November 7, exactly eight weeks ago, Mike Paulenoff posted the following heads-up to MPTrader members concerning a potentially opportunistic technical setup in BA (Boeing).
Mike wrote: "The current vertical upmove is smacking into a major intermediate-term down trendline in the vicinity of 170-171 (see my attached Daily Chart) that likely will put a lid on it and argues for a pullback to 150 again, but if not, upside continuation points to 210-215 next as BA continues to have the right look of the completion of a massive post-Pandemic bottom formation. The Intermediate term setup is for investors able to ride around some sloppy action in BA if it is unable to climb above the dominant down trendline, to expect a pullback into the 150 support zone prior to another attempt to take out multi-year resistance... Last is 165.16."
As it turned out, within 4 trading days of Mike's commentary, BA thrust above its powerful 3+ year down trendline and key resistance zone (168-171), prompting this follow-up by Mike on Nov 13:
"BA (Boeing) has received the largest-ever order for planes from a US carrier (UAL)... which is just the type of fundamental news that puts "meat on the bone" of a potentially very powerful 21-month base accumulation pattern shown on my attached Daily Chart. As long as any forthcoming weakness in BA is contained above 172.20, the technical setup argues for upside continuation toward my next upside target zone of 215-220, in route to a challenge of major consequential resistance lodged from 255 to 280... last is 186.27."
BA went on to retest the upside breakout area (168-171) on November 17 prior to launching into a new powerful and persistent up-leg that has propelled BA to 213 as of Friday's (Jan 6) close.
From Mike's initial heads-up on November 7 at 165.16 to Friday's high at 213.03, BA climbed 29%.

Thirty minutes after the opening bell on November 24, 2025, I posted the following heads-up to MPTrader members about the technical setup in META:META has the right technical look of a significant U-Turn to the upside after completing a 27% August-November correction from 796.25 (8/15/25) to 580.32 (11/21/25)... To gain more powerful upside traction, META needs to climb and sustain above nearest-term resistance at 614.70 to 616.50, which if (when) taken out, will open a higher price pathway to the 670 area to challenge the down-sloping 200 DMA... Last is 609.27...
Last Friday morning, to calm frazzled nerves amid a 1% pre-market plunge that was threatening to complete a 100% give back of the prior week's 3.
Late on Friday, fellow MPTrader member MarkinQueens exclaimed: Mike's XOM (Exxon Mobil) chart from August is working! Last $117.26!Back on August 25th, this is what we discussed about Crude Oil and XOM:Just in case anyone is wondering what the chart of nearby Crude Oil is looking like as we approach the "official" end of summer.
On August 12, 2025, this was my response to an inquiry from an MPTrader member about intense weakness impacting SMR (NuScale Power Corp):SMR (NuScale Power)-- Fellow member Irv66 asked for an update on this modular nuclear reactor manufacturer that blasted-off from 11.08 in early April to 53.50 at the end of July (+382%), but has since been in the grasp of a major correction from 53.50 to 38.33 (-28.6%). My pattern work argues that SMR is nearing key support from 37.50 down to 33.
ARKK (ARK Innovation Fund, ETF)-- Back on August 20, 2025, this is what we discussed about ARKK:Fellow member Pawel has requested an update on Cathie Wood's fund, which in June thrust up and out of a 3-1/2 year base-accumulation period and pattern above 68.40/50 that subsequently climbed to my initial target in the vicinity of 80 (see my attached Daily Chart). Since the 7/21/25 high at 79.
