All of the symbols had given bull signals, and although some of the charts were uptrending, they tended to be either B-wave corrections, which I find to be notoriously fickle, or fifth waves with a significant life behind them.
The most likely candidate was VIP, but I found the count to be ambiguous. I'm putting VIP on my Watchlist until the chart resolves the count, and if it still sees tradable, then I'll do the full analysis.
In any case, even if I were to identify a trade, I would be unlikely to place it today because of the atypical nature of year-end holiday markets.
A reminder: The U.S. markets close early, at 1 p.m. New York time today, and will be closed entirely on Wednesday for the Christmas holiday.
Enjoy!
