This week's Diamonds in the Rough performed quite well. Our big winner finished the week +7.47% and the two runners-up were up +4.26% and +4.07%; not bad on a week where the SPY was down -0.48%. One thing I would like to take into consideration from here on out are stops. I mark stop "areas" but always have an exact percentage placed on the chart. So far I haven't had a stop trigger like this. For the Recap, I believe that stop losses should be considered. To that end, today's spreadsheet will include the average without using the stop on Virgin Galactic (SPCE), as well as the average with the stop. It would've been a banner week (+2.21%) if we account for the stop being hit.
I'll be doing a relook at Virgin Galactic (SPCE), this week's lump of coal and a relook at Revolve Group (RVLV), this week's sparkling Diamond.

A few items about the spreadsheet: I decided it only fair to denote "reader requests" as I shouldn't get to take credit if they turn out great! I've put on the spreadsheet whether the RSI is positive (green) or negative (red). The PMO column tells you if it is rising (green) or falling (red). Finally I've added my own "Sparkle Factor" that gives you my assessment going forward, bullish (green), bearish (red) or neutral (gray). The Sparkle Factor is basically my thoughts on whether I expect it to rise or fall. A neutral means it could really go either way so it could be added to a watch list. If you're in a stock I consider "neutral" going forward, the ball is in your court.
It's FREE!

This one was supposed to take us to the moon but instead, took us on a journey to the center of the earth. Below is the chart as it looked on Tuesday when I presented it. You can see the positive traits and in all honesty, I don't see anything negative on Tuesday's chart.
Now let's look at it today. The very next day it was down well over 11% which tripped the stop set above of 10.1%. This has definitely turned into a lump of coal. It is nearing support, but it took out the 20/50-EMAs like a hot knife through butter. I would look for a drop to major support below $15.
Don't forget, on Thursdays I look at reader-requested symbols, so shoot me an email at erin@decisionpoint.com. I read every email I receive and try to answer them all!

I liked the set-up on this. My concern had been a cup and handle possibility, but as I noted then, the positives outweighed that.
RVLV has only gotten better with age. It broke above resistance at the pre-bear market highs. The PMO rising nicely and is far from overbought. The only issue right now is the overbought RSI. RVLV has had serious damage done on overbought RSI pullbacks. So set your stop accordingly.

Full Disclosure: I own Disney (DIS) on the spreadsheet. I'm about 45% invested right now and 55% is in 'cash', meaning in money markets and readily available to trade with. I have no interest in adding positions right now.
