Stock Market Technical Analysis Blog

Posted by pugsma on January 9, 2026

Hello and Welcome to PUG Stock Market Analysis. 

This stock market technical analysis blog has been live since October 2009 (for 16 years), providing unbiased stock market technical analysis of the SP-500, Gold and more that ignores the white noise of news and politics.  During that time there have been over 6800 blog posts made with over 15,000 charts on the markets and over 17 million page views.

PUG (Steve) has an engineering background and uses a disciplined scientific approach to analyzing the markets.  We have built a wonderful group of member subscribers who complement PUG’s technical analysis charts and commentary.  Subscribers interact with PUG and each other in the subscriber comment section.  Subscribers to the premium service are individual investors/traders, professional money managers, and hedge fund managers.

The Premium Service uses Elliott Wave Theory, channel analysis, Fibonacci extension/retracement, momentum oscillators and chart pattern recognition to help forecast market directional moves in the SP-500, other indexes, various stocks and commodities.  Based on PUG’s own charts, trend lines and price movement projections, PUG will provide technical analysis updates.

  • Focused on the SP-500 Forecast using charting and technical analysis.
  • Additional price forecast for various indexes, stocks and commodities (examples: QQQ – Nasdaq, IWM – Russell-2000, Gold – GLD) using charting and technical analysis.  Which additional charts are chosen is entirely up to PUG’s discretion based on significant price movement changes of importance.
