Long-term 2 of 2 are BUY  
Intermediate 3 of 5 are SELL 5 of 5 are NEUTRAL SPY ST Model in BUY mode; Non-Stop in BUY mode.
Short-term Model is *BUY, not confirmed though. 6 of 6 are NEUTRAL Uptrend not confirmed. I closed long, hold short overnight for a speculation play, not because it’s safe to do so.
GANN DAY MOON:SOLAR CYCLE CONCLUSION
11/26 11/21 : 11/22 Next pivot date: 11/24 – 11/26
BULLISH 0.1.1 SPX Intermediate-term Trading Signals: Head and Shoulders Bottom breakout, target 1242.
09/27 Market Recap: 9 POMO within 20 trading days means 14%+ up in 3 months.
10/01 Market Recap: Positive September plus mid-term election means 11%+ up to year end.
10/29 Market Recap: The last 2 months of year are bullish.
11/05 Market Recap: SPX daily bar completely out of BB may mean bulls are safe till the year end.
11/12 Market Recap: 77% chances the 11/05 high will be revisited in 3 weeks.
T2122 NYSE 4 week new high/low ratio is oversold relative to the recent history readings.
0.2.3 NYSE McClellan Oscillator: Oversold.
6.2.2b VIX Trading Signal (BB): Buy setup triggered. There’s a potential validity problem though.
BEARISH *1.0.6 SPY Unfilled Gaps: 21 unfilled gaps, the max was 21.
10/29 Market Recap: AAII bull ratio (4-week average) too bullish.
10/29 Market Recap: Commercial (smart money) short Nasdaq 100 heavily according to COT Report.
11/12 Market Recap: Smart/Dump money confidence spread too high.
0.2.1 10Y T-Bill Yield: ROC(30) >= 9, topped? (Due to Quantitative Easing, I’m not sure if it still works)
*6.2.3 VIX:VXV Trading Signals: Too low.
SPY SETUP ENTRY DATE STOP LOSS INSTRUCTION: Mechanic signals, back test is HERE, signals are HERE.
TRADING PLATFORM:
SSO/SDS, UPRO/SPXU
Non-Stop 09/07 L N/A Partial profits on 09/24.
ST Model *11/18 L 1.9*ATR(10) *There still is a validity problem unless up huge tomorrow.
NYMO Sell 11/12 S Breakeven Reference only, not meant to be followed.

SHORT-TERM: REITERATE THAT WE’LL SEE THE 2ND LEG DOWN

Reiterate 2 leg down pattern mention in 11/16 Market Recap. The first leg down was apparently over, now the question is how far the rebound can go? I have no idea except to wait and see. Purely from Fib perspective, Fib 61.8% at 11/15 highs is wroth watching.

SPY60min 

The biggest problem for bulls now is VIX to VXV ratio is a little low so likely the rebound wouldn’t go too far. Of course, a huge up day again tomorrow may change the story.

VIXtoVXVRatioWatch 

No other to say. SPY ST Model buy setup confirmed today so a enter long position should be entered today, however the validity problem still remains, unless huge up day again tomorrow, otherwise chances are good it will ask to close long the next Monday, so beware.

INTERMEDIATE-TERM: THE FIRST 2.5%+ PULLBACK AFTER A 40+ STRAIGHT UP TRADING DAYS WAS USUALLY A BUY

SEASONALITY: BEARISH MONDAY, BULLISH FRIDAY, BULLISH THE WHOLE WEEK

  2. Position reported in short-term session of the table above is for short-term model only, I may or may not hold other positions which will not be disclosed.
