The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The "Economic Modern Family" (@MarketGauge.com) is a combination of one market index and 5 varying sectors & groups for "Market Analysis".
Trend indicators that give you an overall weekly gauge of how aggressive or not to be on the long or short side.
*My "Modern Family" signals(3) are not strictly identical to the (@MarketGauge.com) "Phases Tutorial"(6).
Market Phases Rev 5-Jan-2024
- "BEARish" phase when the closing price is below the 50-Day OR 200-Day moving averages for at least 5 days, while slope(MA) is Negative.(1o2)
- "Bullish" phase when the closing price is above the 50-Day OR 200-Day moving averages for at least 5 days, while either slope(MA) is Positive.(2o4)
- "Cautionary Warning" phase when the phases are NOT "BEARish" OR "Bullish".
- "Support" is the level(floor) at which demand is strong enough to stop the stock from falling any further. (MAC positive 5d)
- "Resistance" is the level(ceiling) at which supply is strong enough to stop the stock from moving higher. (MAC negative 5d)
- "Confirmed" is when MAC(50) AND Slope(50-DMA) AND "Signal Status" phase agree.
