Poor earnings by Citigroup (NYSE:C) and JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) have given investors a chance to buy the dip and they did... Both stocks opened lower after reporting their earnings. However, quickly investors bought and the stocks surged higher. Both stocks are entering overbought territory and likely to pull back in the coming days. The biggest tell for the financial sector is the Financial Select Sector SPDR (NYSE:XLF), the financial ETF. The ETF is approaching the daily 50 moving average and a major pivot from October 2018. The combination of these two factors gives a short trade on the XLF at $25.25 a high reward, low risk success rate. Keep it on your radar.
