Welcome to The Squeeze Watch.

We're very excited to present our Squeeze Engine, one of the main tools that powers the success of Breakout Multiplier.

The market continues to lean defensive. Value-oriented groups remain in control, but one in particular has been quietly coiling, storing energy for its next major move.

Here's today's standout:

The Health Care Sector ETF $XLV is currently exhibiting a Squeeze Score of 95.40 and a Long-Term Squeeze Score of 89.40.

Here's what the chart looks like:

The Health Care sector is coiled in a tight pennant at the upper bound of a multi-year base-on-base pattern.

Volatility on the Strazza Indicator remains compressed.

A resolution out of this short-term coil would complete the much larger bullish structure and could fuel a sustained rally.

If you want access to our Squeeze Engine and our next trade, join Breakout Multiplier here, risk-free.
