On October 6, Mike Paulenoff posted this alert about Devon Energy (DVN) to MPTrader members:
Based on the very powerful pattern carved out from the 2020 low at 6.93 to the June 2022 high at 79.40, all of the action during the past four months represents a bullish digestion period of the 19-month upmove that should resolve itself in a thrust into a new upleg that projects above 79.40 to 85.00+.
If the four-month digestion pattern has taken the form of a bullish Triangle, and based on the "typical behavior" of a Triangle ... DVN should stall and roll over beneath key next resistance at 73.50-75.27 and pull back... to satisfy the final traverse across the range ahead of an explosive upmove.
In Theory, such a scenario or a modified version of this bullish scenario is what I am expecting for DVN. However, if DVN continues higher and takes out resistance at 73.50-75.27, then it will be poised for upside continuation directly to new ATHs...
... The bottom line is that DVN is in the grasp of an extremely powerful intermediate-longer-term bull trend. Maybe waiting for a pullback... will turn out to be a perfect strategy, but doing so also risks missing the 20% upmove if DVN just keeps on climbing... Last is 72.42...
During the 11 trading days following Mike's post, DVN has closely followed his technical script, first pulling back to the October 10 low at 67.14 (-6.2%) and then embarking on a new upleg that climbed and closed above the dominant June-October upper Coil resistance boundary line last Friday (see chart).
DVN closed at 74.29 Friday, up 2.6% from Mike's alert, and based on its current technical setup, is poised for upside continuation to challenge and take out the June high at 79.40.
What is in store for DVN (and the larger Energy Sector) after last week's impressive upmove from 68.62 to 74.38 (+8.4%) and ahead of the company's release of Q3 earnings after the close on November 1?

On July 31, 2025, with SLV (Silver ETF) trading at 33.27, this is what we discussed about my technical setup:SLV-- On the subject of tariffs, copper, and silver, Trump extended the tariff deal with Mexico for 90 days, which included steel and copper, but NO MENTION of Silver (so far). Let's notice on my attached 4-Hour chart of SLV that the week-long nosedive from 35.91 to this AM's low at 33.
On February 18, 2025, this is what I posted on MPTrader about KWEB (Chinese Internet ETF) that alerted traders to a potentially explosive setup that should keep KWEB on our radar screens going forward :My attached Daily Chart shows that KWEB is attempting to emerge from a huge, three-year rounded base-accumulation setup that projects much higher prices as the price structure climbs the "recovery wall of worry" in the aftermath of the relentless bear phase from the February 2021 ATH at 104.
On July 29, 2025, this is what we discussed about TEVA (Teva Pharma), accompanied by my then-current 4-Hour Chart, just ahead of Earnings:My attached 4-Hour Chart setup argues that TEVA is poised for upside continuation of its April-May advance (12.47 to 18.67) EITHER right from current levels in reaction to a positive Earnings Report tomorrow morning, OR into a BTD bout of weakness into the 14.85-15.55 target support window.
On the morning of August 6th, I posted the chart below after seeing Fundstrat's Tom Lee discuss his CEO position in BMNR (BitMine Immersion Technologies), and the fact that BMNR was accumulating a large cache of Ethereum (ETH) that will serve as an ETH Treasury holding similar to the Bitcoin model used by Microstrategy's Michael Saylor. At the time, BNMR had climbed from 31.85 to 33.70, which piqued my attention technically:"BNMR ... once again is putting upward pressure on the 34.
Nearly two months ago, I posted my technical setup on TMO (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) to alert MPTrader members to a potentially significant upside reversal pattern. Here is my commentary from June 3, 2025:My attached Big Picture Daily Chart shows the major bear phase from the 9/10/24 ATH at 627.88 to last week's (5/23/25) low at 390.66 (-38%). Most interestingly, all of the price action from the 4/09/25 low at 409.
