Slope initially began as a blog, so this is where most of the website’s content resides. Here we have tens of thousands of posts dating back over a decade. These are listed in reverse chronological order.

Every single person who has ever bought BOX in the public market is looking at a loss (which is becoming a trend these days with recent IPOs). I mentioned BOX here on Slope any number of times, bemoaning the fact I couldn’t find any shares to short. It’s a shame…..
Lumber and the Homebuilders ETF (XHB) traded, essentially, in the same directions from mid-2010 until October 2014 — when Lumber suddenly took a nosedive down to major support at 240, while XHB broke out and rallied — as shown on the following 5-Year Daily comparison chart.
At the moment, it looks as though that support level will be retested, once more. A drop and hold below 240 could very well be the catalyst that breaks XHB’s slightly-sloping (tight) uptrend. And, a drop and hold below 220 could see a very quick, sizable plunge in XHB…possibly slicing through 34.00 down to retest major support around 28.00, or lower.
I’m very pleased to let everyone know that SocialTrade is its own website now. For those of you unacquainted with SocialTrade, think of it as a reddit for charts. People post charts (and other stuff) of interest to traders in there on a daily basis, and there is an ever-growing, well-organized database of these visual morsels at your disposal.
SocialTrade has been a longstanding feature on Slope, and Slopers have stacked tens of thousands of interesting charts, articles, and other curiosities into the database.
