Trading purely based on overbought/oversold while against the trend is lethal to the health of your account. Before going further, please make sure you understand how to use the table above.
SHORT-TERM: PAY ATTENTION TO 1-2-3 FORMATION SETUP

The drop today may mean nothing, the market direction is still not clear, although still temporarily maintain the forecast for expecting a 2nd leg down to test 05/06 low.

0.2.0 Volatility Index (Daily), VIX chart is a little bit ugly because Hammer has 60% chances of leading to a bullish reversal which is not good for the broad market. It needs a confirmation tomorrow though.

VIXDaily 

0.2.1 10Y T-Bill Yield, some people may disagree, but to me, this chart doesn’t look good as 4 reversal bars were formed under an important resistance. If yield pullback so will the broad market. Don’t neglect the yield, from my experiences, the yield always leads the market.

TNXDaily 

Take a look at the chart below if interested, because I often mention 1-2-3 formation, so I’d like to take this chance to tell you a little about the typical trading setup for this pattern. However, by no means, I imply that you should short, just I really don’t have anything else to say today.

1-2-3TTE 

Now take a look at 0.1.0 SPY Short-term Trading Signals, should conform the 1-2-3 formation sell setup, so break down below today’s low is a short, well, again, theoretically.
