SHORT-TERM: DOUBLE TOP OR ASCENDING TRIANGLE, WE HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE
Once again the market opened high and closed lower. However it doesn’t mean bearish yet because even on an intraday chart there’s no lower low yet. From the chart below, one could argue for a potential Double Top while the other argue for an Ascending Triangle. So we need see tomorrow.
Overall, lots of bad signs, just since bulls have YES WE CAN, so all I can say now are bears may have a tiny tiny little little hope. (Well, ask yourself if you ever believe those bad signs at all. If the answer is no, then perhaps this time they will work. LOL)
6.4.2c Extreme TICK Readings Watch, the very unique thing today is again an extremely low TICK reading was recorded, so very likely a lower low or close ahead.
0.1.0 SPY Short-term Trading Signals, too many black bars which in the past one or at most two black bars would mean a pullback. Also pay attention to a potential 1-2-3 trend change setup.
0.2.0 Volatility Index (Daily),VIX could have broken its bullish Falling Wedge therefore is not good for SPX.
Of course the breakout of the bullish Falling Wedge in the chart above still needs a confirmation tomorrow, but, see chart below, if VIX leads SPX still works, then SPX should pullback pretty soon.
INTERMEDIATE-TERM: BEARISH BIASED, PIVOT DATE EITHER ON 10/25 OR AROUND 11/04
Maintain the intermediate-term bearish view. We may have passed the pivot day on 10/25 or the next pivot day could be 11/04. Below are summaries of all the arguments supporting my intermediate-term bearish view:
- As mentioned in 10/29 Market Recap, commercial (smart money) holds record high short positions against Nasdaq 100.
- As mentioned in 10/29 Market Recap, AAII bull ratio (4-week average) is way too bullish.
- As mentioned in 10/29 Market Recap, institution selling keeps increasing.
- As mentioned in 10/08 Market Recap, statistically, a strong off-season could mean a weaker earning season.
- As mentioned in 10/22 Market Recap, NYSI Weekly STO(5,3,3) sell signal means choppy ahead.
SEASONALITY: LAST 2 MONTHS OF YEAR ARE BULLISH
See 10/29 Market Recap for more details.
