SHORT-TERM: COULD SEE REBOUND TOMORROW BUT I EXPECT A 2ND LEG DOWN THEREAFTER
No conclusion today, need see how market rebounds tomorrow. There’re 3 times recently when SPX had a pullback larger than 20 points which if per normal pattern, the pullback shall become larger and larger, then chances are pretty good that this time we’ll have a 2 leg down after a rebound tomorrow. Of course, since the market nowadays is very very bullish, plus VIX is now way above BB and MA ENV(10, 20) top (attention, it’s 20% above MA10 not just 10% above MA10 which is nothing), so I cannot exclude the possibility that the market was bottomed today like what happened the previous 2 times that had no 2nd leg down. Personally, I’m now (subject to change at any time of course) inclined to believe that this time we’ll have a 2nd leg down at least.
Charts below are my witnesses for a green day tomorrow:
VIX rose 18%+ on a single day, buy SPX at close and sell at the next day’s close since year 2000, you have 81% chances for tomorrow.
36 out of 54 times (67%) a green day the next day after a Major Distribution Day (NYSE Down Volume : NYSE Up Volume >= 9).
Charts below are my reasoning for a short-term bottom (at least):
6.2.2b VIX Trading Signal (BB), 6.2.0a VIX Trading Signals (ENV), VIX out of BB top or MA ENV(10, 20) is a potential buy setup.
Seems like the market was bottomed whenever VIX:VXV > 0.9 recently.
INTERMEDIATE-TERM: COULD BE NO 2.5%+ PULLBACK FOR 85 MORE TRADING DAYS, BEARS MAY WAIT ANOTHER WEEK, BUT DON’T HOPE TOO MUCH

SEASONALITY: BEARISH THE NEXT WEEK
