THU 2/26: CAT – CALLING A FINAL SELL SIGNAL @ $733.50 +47.6%

James F. Taulman BB - SIDEBAR, CAT, PERFORMANCE, ST - CHART UPDATES, ST PERFORMANCE

10:31 AM – Finally calling a third and FINAL SELL SIGNAL this morning as shares are clearly breaking below the 10 DMA with an increase in volume. That violation confirms a shift in short-term momentum. After a powerful advance, we now follow the rule and lock in gains as leadership begins to weaken.

SELL SIGNALS:
10/22 (1/3) @ $514.34 +3.5%
10/29 (1/3) @ $588.27 +18.4%
2/26 (1/3) @ $733.50 +47.6%

OVERALL P/L: +23.2%

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Sell Into Rule Violations, Not Emotion

  • A break below the 10 DMA with volume is a non-negotiable SELL SIGNAL.

  • Large gains mean nothing if you ignore momentum deterioration.

  • Scaling out in thirds allows you to participate in major moves — while still exiting with discipline when character changes.

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Lock Profits Into Strength

  • Selling into strength keeps you in control — not the market.

  • Big volume surges on earnings can be short-lived.

  • Banking gains early preserves both profits and confidence for the next setup.

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Respect the 10 DMA

  • The 10-day moving average is the heartbeat of our trading system.

  • A decisive break below it often marks a shift in short-term momentum.

  • Locking in partial profits early keeps you playing from strength — not defense.

WED 10/8: CAT – BUYING (1/3) @ $496.99

James F. Taulman BB - SIDEBAR, CAT, JTPP

10:04 AM – Shares are posting decent gains this morning with above average volume, advancing from near the 10 DMA to near new highs — a clear BUY SIGNAL.

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Buying From the 10 DMA with Volume

  • The 10-day moving average is the heartbeat of our trading system.

  • When a stock advances from this line with conviction and strong volume, it can mark the start of a new move.

  • Buying near the 10 DMA keeps risk tight and rewards disciplined entries.
