05/03/2011 Market Outlook (Down Day Tomorrow?)

SHORT-TERM: 10 OUT OF 12 CHANCES A DOWN DAY TOMORROW

Three cents:

  1. Could see red day tomorrow.
  2. There will be a rebound, so bulls have nothing to worry, FOR NOW.
  3. Trading wise, sharp down tomorrow, I’d be in bear’s camp, while rebound tomorrow, I’d stay with bulls.

Why could be a red day again tomorrow? See chart below, 10 out of 12 (83%) times a red day to follow-through a Bearish Reversal Day (that’s yesterday) means a red day the 3rd day (that’s tomorrow).

Basically, I still believe a RSI negative divergence is needed before a real pullback could kick in. The rally since 04/18 was just way too strong, it’s very rare for bulls to give up without fighting. The statistics below, from another angle, argues there will be a rebound: QQQ down 3 consecutive days, buy at close today, hold until the very first green day, you’ll have 79% chances since year 2003.

QQQDown3ConsecutiveDays

The broken of a 3 points validated CPCE trend line should mean a top of some kind as long as it could hold for tomorrow. If indeed the 10 out of 12 chances a red day tomorrow then the trend line most likely will hold. Besides, if  a red tomorrow would be the SPY’s 3rd consecutive down days and since a strong uptrend should never ever have 3 consecutive down days, so chances would be very good that indeed we’re now around a top of some kind.
