On the morning of October 14, Mike Paulenoff posted the following time-sensitive comment about CHWY (Chewy Inc) to MPTader members:
"CHWY has the right look of a very mature correction from its ATH at 120 (2/16/21) to Monday's (10/12/21) low at 60.45, which represents a 50% haircut from the ATH. As of this moment, with CHWY trading at 62.72, my work does NOT yet have confirmation that THE LOW has been established. My pattern and momentum work are "warning me" that CHWY's multi-month correction is nearing downside exhaustion. To get confirmation that a significant low has been established, CHWY needs to climb and sustain above 66.50. This name should be on our radar now... Last is 62.74."
Fast-forward exactly one week to October 21, and Mike alerted MPTrader members again:
"CHWY is pushing up against first resistance at 66.50, if taken out and sustained, will point to 72-73 in the aftermath of what increasingly appears to be a Bear Trap multi-month corrective low at 60.45 on Oct. 12th... Last is 66.50."
In the ensuing days, CHWY followed Mike's preferred technical price path, breaking out above 66.50. Then last week it surged to and above 72-73 to Friday's (Oct 29) high at 76.35, a full 22% from his first update and 15% above Mike's technical upside reversal signal.
This prompted Mike to make this late-session chart post on Friday:
"It's a dogs world... Since CHEWY turned up, and triggered an initial buy signal on 10/21 at 66.50, it has climbed 10 points and 15%, and its setup indicates this upmove is not done yet... Last is 75.56."
What's next for CHWY heading towards its early December earnings report? And what's ahead for many other individual equity names that Mike and MPTrader members discuss and analyze throughout each trading day, in addition to in-depth coverage of broadly-held macro indices, ETFs, Cryptocurrencies, and Commodities?

Last Friday afternoon (Sep 30), Mike Paulenoff ended his Gold Miner alert to MPTrader members with the following parting comment:
Just maybe the precious metals complex is approaching a perfect storm-- a weakening US Dollar, stubborn inflation, vicious and increasingly dangerous geopolitics et al...
Indeed, the Gold Miners ETF GDX outperformed the benchmark SPY ETF for the first time in months. After pressing to a low at 23.
This past Monday September 19, Mike Paulenoff alerted MPTrader members to an emerging setup in Raytheon Technologies (RTX), noting:
One of the recurring themes I read about that threads through coverage of the Russian-Ukraine conflict is that the vast amount of materiel sent to Ukraine from NATO countries to help Zelensky and his army fight Russia is older equipment and weaponry that sooner than later will have to be replaced by the donating countries.
On the afternoon of September 12, the day before the consequential August CPI report was released, Mike Paulenoff alerted MPTrader members to a key inflection point in the QQQ, writing:
The QQQ is strong ... heading towards a confrontation with its key resistance zone from 312.80 to 316.15 where my work expects QQQ behavior to inform us about the true underlying dominant trend-- to the upside in an extension of the June-August advance, or to the downside in extension and completion of the Aug-Sep.
On August 8, Mike Paulenoff was asked for chart analysis on CHPT by an MPTrader member.
Before the opening bell, Mike responded with the following chart-based commentary:
CHPT (ChargePoint Holdings)is getting a lift from the so-calledInflation Reduction Actmostly because of the feel-good reaction to the $7,500 electric vehicle tax credit (if you can afford to buy an EV in the first place) as well as earmarked funds supposedly heading for building out charging station infrastructure.
On Friday morning August 26, Jay Powell delivered a very brief, but considerably more hawkish-than-expected Jackson Hole speech that for all intents and purposes ended and reversed the 19% recovery rally advance in the SP.
That afternoon, with AAPL down 3% to 164.65, Mike Paulenoff posted a heads-up alert about AAPL to MPTrader members that called for continued downside in the most widely-followed name in the averages, writing:
AAPL has pressed beneath its prior pullback low at 166.
