SHORT-TERM: COULD SEE AT LEAST ONE MORE PUSH UP

1.0.0 S&P 500 SPDRs (SPY 60 min), could be an Ascending Triangle in the forming so most likely there’s at least one more push up ahead. Especially if we see another huge gap up tomorrow morning, better not to hope the gap would get filled again because that’ll be the 3rd time the market gapped up huge recently and usually the rule is the 3rd time is the charm.

For others, as all of you would have already guessed – yes, more bearish extremes. Especially on ISEE Index, now not only the ISEE Equities Only Index is very extreme, ISEE Index itself hit a new high since the March 2009 bottom. The chart below highlighted in red are all the cases since then when ISEE Index > 180. Should be clear what happened thereafter, shouldn’t it?

ISEEIndex 

Another thing worth mentioning is the Smart/Dumb Money Confidence Spread from Sentimentrader hit new high. I’ve mentioned this extreme in the table above awhile ago, well, today we reached a new extreme level.

INTERMEDIATE-TERM: BULLISH BUT NEED SEE HOW MARKET BREAKOUT ABOVE SPX 1227

Temporarily maintain a bullish view for the intermediate-term, need see how the market breakout above SPX 1227 though. Right now the biggest problem is ISEE Equities Only Index is way too crazy. See 12/03 Market Recap for more detail.

SEASONALITY: DECEMBER HAS BEEN BULLISH

See 12/03 Market Recap for more detail.
