Wayne Whaley Identifies Rare First-Ever Price Thrust
I've heard of Breadth Thrusts and Volume Thrusts, but Wayne Whaley just documented a bona fide Price Thrust for the first time I’m aware of. So even though we haven’t gotten Breakaway Momentum or a Zweig Breadth Thrust, the Whaley Price Thrust that was triggered Friday seems to be in the same league. (There have only been eight since 1950, for example.) I don’t have permission to share it... but if you’ve been waiting for Breakaway Momentum, wanted you to know that we do have a Whaley Price Thrust now. I'm hoping he’ll share it more widely. Meanwhile, you can follow @WayneWhaley1136 or email him at waynewhaley.witterlester@gmail.com
