Back on February 20th, with Twitter at 56.65, we wrote: "The fact that TWTR sold off hard from yesterday's high and is struggling today suggests strongly that it started a new corrective down leg at 60, and should be heading for a probe of the post-EPS low -- and possibly a break towards 45.00 thereafter."
Twitter went on to close at 44.43 this past Wednesday Mar 26, and has since rallied to 47.30.
Twitter needs to climb above 50.00-.20 to signal that a significant corrective low has been established.

More Top Calls From Mike
During the afternoon session of February 15, this is what Mike Paulenoff posted to the MPTrader Discussion Room about the technical setup in the oil service company SLB (Schlumberger):"This name in the oil service sector exhibits a well-demarcated 4-year bullish channel with the SLB price structure upturning off of the lower boundary line in the vicinity of 47.00 (the 2/13/24 low) amid a glaring double non-confirmation of the weakness into the lower channel line.
On December 26, 2023, fellow MPTrader member FJB asked me the following question: Mike - do you feel comfortable giving some of your top sectors for next year if you have any?

On February 23, Mike Paulenoff posted the following timely commentary about the bond market to MPTrader members:"Benchmark 10-year YIELD and TLT (20+ Year T-bond ETF)-- I am getting initial, but very strong technical signals that the backup in 10-year YIELD from the late-March low at 3.78% to yesterday's (2/22/24) high at 4.35% is nearing exhaustion ahead of a rollover into another downleg within the larger downleg off of the October 2023 high at 5.00% (see my attached Daily Chart).
On October 27, 2023, Mike Paulenoff discussed his outlook for XBI (SPDR SP Biotech ETF) with our MPTrader members, writing:With the exception of a few months of recovery rally price action here and there, XBI remains in the grasp of a major bear phase off of its February 2021 peak at 174.79 into today's 17-month new low at 64.78. The $64,000 question is whether or not XBI is coming in for a successful test of its May-June 2022 lows at 61.78 and 62.
Nearly four months ago, on the morning of October 31, 2023, this is what I posted to our discussion room about NVDA (Nvidia Corp):NVDA pressed to a new 4-1/2 month low at 392.30 today, and ... the price structure is peering over the edge of a multi-month support plateau (396.50 to 407.64) that if sustained, will leave NVDA vulnerable to downside continuation toward filling the up-gap left behind on 5/25/23 from 305.40 to 366.35. So far, NVDA has bounced off of 392.30 and has just crossed above 400.
