THU 3/5: FER – CALLING A 3RD SELL SIGNAL @ $66.67 +5.5%

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

2:31 PM – Shares have committed a clear violation of the 50 DMA, and that is a SELL SIGNAL under our rules. When a stock loses this key intermediate support level, it signals a shift in trend and increasing downside risk. Calling a 3RD and FINAL SELL SIGNAL here.

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: The 50 DMA Signals Trend Change

  • The 50 DMA often marks the line between uptrend stability and deeper weakness.

  • When a stock violates that level, institutions are often stepping aside.

  • Following SELL SIGNAL rules protects capital and prevents small gains from turning into losses.

FRI 12/19: SELLING: FER (ALL) P/L: -$1,023.54 -3.4%

James F. Taulman BB - SIDEBAR, FER, JTPP, JTPP PERFORMANCE, PERFORMANCE

9:41 AM – Shares are gapping down below the 10 DMA this morning after showing concerning action on Wednesday and Thursday. That prior weakness removes patience here. I’m choosing to act quickly and exit the position.

Also worth noting: today is triple-witching options expiration, so volume readings will be inflated and less reliable as a standalone signal.

SELL SIGNALS:
12/19 (ALL) –3.4%

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Don’t Ignore Pre-Weakness

  • When a stock shows deterioration before a gap down, the risk profile changes fast.

  • Gaps below the 10 DMA following weak prior sessions often signal a break in character.

  • On abnormal volume days (like triple-witching), price action matters more than volume — respect the rule breaks and move on.

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Adding to Strength, Not Weakness

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Adding Back Into Strength

    • Adding back into strength keeps capital aligned with leaders, not laggards.

    • Strong trends reward patience and disciplined re-entry.

THU 10/30: FER – CALLING A 2ND SELL SIGNAL @ $62.51 +2.5%

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

3:45 PM – Was turned back from its 10 DMA line. That’s a default SELL SIGNAL under the ULTRA system as the stock shows short-term weakness.

SELL SIGNALS:
10/29 @ $62.98 +3.3%
10/30 @ $62.51 +2.5%

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Respect Rejections at the 10 DMA

  • When price trades up to  the 10 DMA and fails, it’s often a warning shot.

  • Institutions stop supporting there first — that’s your cue to act.

  • Following that signal early help reduce further possible losses.

WED 10/29: FER – SELLING (ALL) P/L: +$582.08 +2.9%

James F. Taulman BB - SIDEBAR, FER, JTPP, JTPP PERFORMANCE, PERFORMANCE

3:52 PM – Gapped down on earnings but did close off the lows. Taking profits here as volatility may continue in the near term.

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Volatility After Earnings Isn’t Your Friend

  • Sharp post-earnings gaps often signal uncertainty, not strength.

  • Even small profits are worth protecting when volatility spikes.

  • Selling into noise lets you redeploy into cleaner, lower-risk setups.

WED 10/15: FER – BUYING/ADDING (1/3) @ $61.56

James F. Taulman BB - SIDEBAR, FER, JTPP

3:35 PM – After a very bullish session yesterday, the stock gapped down this morning but quickly rebounded from the defining 10 DMA ($60.59). Strong technical action — a good time to add another 1/3 position here.

BUY SIGNALS:
10/13 @ $60.41
10/15 @ $61.56

NEW COST BASIS: $60.99

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Adding to a Current Position

  • When a stock shows renewed strength from key support like the 10 DMA, adding can compound gains while keeping risk defined.

  • The goal isn’t to chase — it’s to build upon a proven setup that’s working.

  • Always add only after confirmation (strong rebound, volume support, or clear technical follow-through).

MON 10/13: FER – BUYING (1/3) @ $60.41

James F. Taulman BB - SIDEBAR, FER, JTPP

3:35 PM – Making volume-backed gains from the 10 DMA. Momentum is turning positive as shares rebound off short-term support. BUY SIGNAL.

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

  • The 10 DMA is the heartbeat of our trading system.

  • When a stock advances from this line with strong volume, it often marks the start of a new move.

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