*Please make sure you understand how to use the table above. The main purpose of this report is to provide information so contradictory signals are always presented.
*Skip the SEASONALITY and CYCLE ANALYSIS sessions below if you think they’re superstitious.

SEASONALITY: THE FIRST HALF OF THE WEEK IS GENERALLY BULLISH

See 03/12 Market Recap for details.

CYCLE ANALYSIS: EXPECT A CYCLE TOP WITHIN THIS WEEK

See 03/12 Market Recap for details. The SPX daily cycle mentioned yesterday, still valid and look like a top. See 1.0.7 SPX Cycle Watch (Daily).

INTERMEDIATE-TERM: EXPECT CORRECTION TO CONFORM THE PAST II PATTERN, NOT SURE WHEN IT STARTS

See 03/12 Market Recap for details.

SHORT-TERM: NORMALIZED CPCE IS A LITTLE BIT TOO LOW

Nothing to say today, just throw something below to keep my promise.

8.1.5 Normalized CPCE, the word “normalize” means instead of checking the absolute value using the distance between MA(10) and MA(200). Because put call ratio varies a lot in different market period so it’s better to use MA(200) to eliminate base differences.

NormalizedCPCE

0.0.0 Signal Watch and Daily Highlights, don’t know if anybody have noticed the T2105 and T2112 red marks? Below are those two charts.

SignalWatch

T2105, a little bit too high comparing with the most recent trend. The blue curve represents SPX, so accordingly this kind of high value may mean a top. However longer history wise, the current value is nothing.

T2105

T2112, the same, the blue curve represents SPX, above the horizontal blue line is extremes, so now the value is a little bit too high.

T2112 

8.2.8a Record NYSE 52 Week Highs 2009, 8.2.8b Record NYSE 52 Week Highs 2004 - 2006, 8.2.8c Record NYSE 52 Week Highs 2003 - 2004, I mentioned yesterday that NYHGH new high means an index new high ahead however a pullback is very likely in a short-term. The links above have loosened the new high conditions to NYHGH > 450 so that more cases are presented. Take a look if you have time as I’m not sure I’ve described the edges correctly.

STOCK SCREENER:  For fun only, I may not actually trade the screeners. Since SPY ST Model is in BUY mode, only LONG candidates are listed. For back test details as well as how to confirm the entry and set stop loss please read HERE. Please make sure you understand the basic risk management HERE.

Looks like it’s too late to long stocks now as the market is way too overbought. Waiting for a better chance.
