SHORT-TERM: COULD SEE MORE ON THE UPSIDE

As mentioned in today’s After Bell Quick Summary, the intraday pattern looks like a Bull Flag, so chances are good that we may see more on the upside.

For bears, every time the market pulls back then rebounds to test the previous high, there’s a chance that it could be a pivot point. Now plus the RSI negative divergence and the ChiOsc a little high and the time resistance mentioned yesterday, so bear may still have some chances. Well, I really want to say here is now both bear and bull are equally carry high risk, so trade with caution.

The last chart I want to show you is yet again the ISEE Equities Only Index closed above 300 which is way too bullish. Well, I know you’re already numbed about such a such so called extremes, LOL.

  1. Please make sure you understand how to use the table above. The purpose of this report is to provide info so contradictory signals are always presented.
  2. Conclusions can be confirmed endlessly, but trading wise, you have to take actions at certain risk level as soon as you feel the confirmation is enough. There’s no way for me to adapt to different risk levels therefore no trading signals will be given in this report except the mechanical signals such as SPY ST Model.
