President and Chief Strategist, Sierra Alpha Research

Dave revisits five stocks from the September Top Ten Charts episode to see how they’ve evolved. He reviews NVDA, AXP, MSI, MRK, and the SIL, explaining which setups worked, which failed, and the lessons to carry forward. From short ideas that didn’t pan out to breakout patterns and trend-following strategies, Dave highlights how to apply risk management, recognize failed theses, and stick with strong trends using tools like moving averages, chart lists, and performance tables on StockCharts.

This video originally premiered on September 22, 2025, and the lessons are just as valuable today. Watch on StockCharts' dedicated David Keller page!
