Markets had a strong day Thursday, almost exclusively on “hope” of a partial trade deal between the US and China.  The indices closed up two-thirds of a percent, right at the 50sma in the SPY and DIA.  Still, both the SPY and IWM both failed the downtrend line and that trend remains intact in all (arguably) indices except the QQQ (which broke through on Thursday).

Friday’s economic calendar includes the Michigan Consumer Sentiment survey at 10 am.  However, given all the focus for months on the Trade War, the big market mover will be the rumors, announcements, and spin placed on the meeting between President Trump and the Chinese Vice Premier.  Also keep an eye on Oil markets as Iran claims one of their tankers in the Red Sea was struck by 2 missles last night. The only earnings of note is for FAST before the bell. 

Overnight, Asian and European markets were up strongly (apparently also on Trump’s tweet that trade negotiations were going “very, very well”).  And as of 7:30 am, U.S. futures are all pointing to a large gap higher (about 1.25% across the board) on that optimism for a Friday trade deal.

The bottom line remains that it is very hard to swing trade in the recent markets successfully.  Day or Position trading look much better in this sort of volatile and choppy market.  Until we start getting less “gaps and whiplash” and more “trend and follow-through” be very cautious.  Do not confuse one candle as trading wisdom…or a new trend. That all said, downtrend remains in control for now.

Markets gapped higher Wednesday on anonymous reports the Chinese are open to a partial trade deal – grain purchases for tariff suspension.  While the gap was impressive, the day ended as nothing but a Doji (indecisive), if up almost 1% on the S&P and QQQ.  So, the downtrend remains in place and taken together, the last two days are just more of the sideways chop at the level of the large gap down Open Tuesday.

On today’s economic calendar we see Consumer Inflation at 8:30am.  However, the big news is the resumption of US-China Trade talks.  Unfortunately, overnight the Chinese media was reporting “trade talks have made no progress” and “high-level talks will only last one day” (instead of two as was planned). 

Overnight, Asian and European markets were all mixed (on dueling rumors and expectations about the now-shortened trade meeting).  And as of 7:30 am, U.S. futures were all pointing to a small open lower (about 0.2 – 0.3%) on the overnight news of trade deal failings.

The bottom line remains that it is very hard to swing trade in the recent markets successfully.  Day or Position trading look much better in this sort of volatile and choppy market.  Until we start getting less “gaps and whiplash” and more “trend and follow-through” be very cautious.  Do not confuse one candle as trading wisdom…or a new trend.

Markets gapped lower again Tuesday, attempted to rally again (on Fed Chair Powell’s afternoon statement that he sees the Fed balance sheet expanding again soon), but then sold off hard the last hour of the day, closing near the lows.  So, the Dreaded-h pattern is now near breakout in all major indices. 

Overnight, Asian markets were on the red side of flat, but European markets are all strongly in the green.  As of 7:30 am, U.S. futures were pointing to a large gap up (about 1%) on overnight reports that China is open to a partial trade deal. (Just bear in mind the market whip on these same rumors the last few days that were always countered with a rumor in the opposite direction…and China has promised a counter move to the most recent U.S. blacklist / Visa sanctions.)

On today’s economic calendar we see JOLTS at 10am, Oil Inventories at 10:30, Chair Powell speaks again at 11am and the Sept. FOMC minutes come out at 2pm.  Also, the Impeachment news cycle will surely keep churning and beware of that Chinese retaliation for the blacklist and putting restrictions on Chinese officials and executive’s travel visas.  Finally, Turkey continues to move troops right to the border of Syria. So, news of that situation may also drive markets.

The bottom line remains to be cautious, very quick in your trading time horizon or both. Gaps and whiplash are not good conditions for swing trading. So, be careful chasing one nice (or ugly) candle. However, the downtrend remains in control for now.

Markets gapped lower Monday but rallied to close the gap and retest the 50sma and downtrend.  The bad news for bulls is that all three major indices failed that test (or at least failed to pass it Monday).  This leaves all four (SPY, DIA, QQQ, and IWM) in a potential Dreaded-h pattern in the making.  So, the downtrend remains in effect and the key technical indicator for Tuesday.  In spite of this, Defensive sectors were out of favor all day.  Does this put us in a bull trap in progress?

Overnight, Asian and European markets were all in the red.  This is probably due to the U.S. blacklisting 28 entities in China (prohibiting them from buying anything made in America).  This move was ostensibly made over Human Rights violations, but market analysts suspect it has more to do with adding Trade War pressure (or at least believe that is how China will interpret the move).  Adding to the market fears are reports that the UK PM had a testy call with German Chancellor Merkel, making any new Brexit deal “overwhelmingly unlikely.” This, of course, raises the risk of a No Deal Brexit.  As of 7:30 am, U.S. futures were also pointing to a significant (0.7%) gap down on the overnight news.

On Tuesday PPI data (8:30 am) may impact markets, as inflation data may help inform FOMC action.  Fed Chair Powell will also speak again in the afternoon.  It’s worth noting that market expectations of an Oct. Fed rate cut have fallen slightly from >90% last week to 70% Monday.

The bottom line remains to be cautious. It is very hard to swing trade the recent markets successfully until we start getting less “gaps and whiplash” and more “trend and follow-through.”  Be careful chasing after one nice (or ugly) candle. However, the downtrend remains in control for now.

On Friday, the bulls managed to put together the first consecutive up days of the prior two weeks.  It was a strong effort with a gap up and morning follow-through.  However, mid-day the market went dead for 2.5 hours before bulls stepped back in and rallied the market steadily right into the close.  During the process, the SPY, DIA and QQQ all pushed through and closed just above their 50-sma.  Of course, the IWM continues to lag and the downtrend of the last couple weeks remains intact across all major indices.

In news over the weekend, the impeachment story continues to dominate US news and violence flaring up at Hong Kong protests dominates the International news.  On the calendar, Chair Powell speaks again Monday afternoon.  However, Inflation data (Tues. and Thur.), JOLTS (unfilled jobs – Wed.) and the release of Sept. FOMC Minutes (Wed.) may be the key economic drivers of the week.  That said, the most important event for the economy itself might be the resumption of US-China Trade talks on Thursday.  There are very few major earnings announcements this week as earnings season really kicks off next week.

Overnight, Asian and European markets were in the green.  As of 7:30 am, U.S. futures were pointing to a lower open, back down to retest the 50sma.

Friday’s chart action gives a probability of a higher high today.  Yet, with a small gap down at the open, the bulls will have to retest the 50sma before they can rally.  So, don’t get too bullish too early. Remember the bulls still have a lot of resistance levels to work through and the downtrend (which runs back to mid-September) is still the current market trend. 

The bottom line remains to be cautious. It is very hard to swing trade the recent markets successfully until we start getting less “gaps and whiplash” and more “trend and follow-through.”  So be careful chasing after one nice (or ugly) candle.

Yesterday saw some serious whipsaw, with a 10am free-fall on the extremely poor Non-Mfg. ISM number, followed by an immediate bounce-back.  This rebound seems to be built on markets pricing in a 90% chance of further Fed rate cuts in the Oct. FOMC meeting.  With that said, the bulls found their footing again late in the day and drove a rally right into the Close.  In the process, the SPY and DIA both climbed back above the uptrend (of Lows) line running back into June.

This chart action gives us a high probability of a higher high on Friday.  Markets may even try to fill the Thursday Open gap.  However, nothing is guaranteed with markets unable to string together two consecutive up days for several weeks now. Needless to say, if we are going higher off yesterday’s strong recovery, the bulls still have A TON of work to do (and levels to work through) to even break the downtrend (of Highs, which runs back to mid-September). 

Overnight Asian markets were mixed and European markets are mostly in the green so far. As of 7:30 am, US futures are pointing to a one to two- tenths gap lower.

Today’s economic news includes Durable Goods Orders and Nonfarm Payrolls and Unemployment before the open.  These could very well be market-movers as a follow-up to the bad ISM data this week. (Of course, we don’t know if the market will be in a “bad news is bad news” or a “bad news means more helicopter money” mood. This will all be followed by half a dozen Fed speakers (including Chair Powell) during the day.  On other fronts, Impeachment, Brexit and the Hong Kong protests (or counter-reaction) will undoubtedly dominate the news.

The bottom line is that it is very hard to swing trade these markets until we start getting less “gaps and whiplash” and more “trend and follow-through.”  So be careful chasing after one nice (or ugly) candle.   Remember that Friday is payday.  So, be sure to book some profits in front of an unpredictable weekend of news.

The market (SPY), Yesterday October 2^nd the sellers were able to bring the SPY down through significant support closing below our Dotted Duece (200FWL). The 200-FWL is where the SPY found support (buyers) rallied back in August 6.6% to challenge the July top. If tomorrow’s unemployment numbers are reasonable, we could see money flowing again in the marker. As for yesterday’s candle, we may see an oversold bounce, but ultimately the 200-SMA on the daily chart is the next target which will be the August lows. More weakness from the 200-SMA the sellers would have their eyes on the January lows or about $273.50

T-Line and T-Line Channels, The weekly chart price action has now brokedown through all the of the bullish trending T-Line Bands, more weakness below the Bands would require a more powerful reversal signal/pattern to be an essential reason for an optimistic outlook. On a side note, the T2122 chart has the T-Line deep into the oversold area on both the daily and weekly charts. The VXX chart is turning quite bullish after the consolidation on and above the T-Line Bands. Yesterday’s gap woke a ton of traders up! Take a look at you 4-hour chart with the bands…they have reversed to point upward. Be ready for anything.

The bottom line, With the market trending down and getting near the daily 200-SMA, we want to protect our short trades with stops or even taking a few profits. At the same time, we want to start building a bullish watchlist in case the bulls begin to get perky. If you did not catch the recent bearish run be careful not to chase do to ”FOMO” (Fear of missing out), you will get another chance.

The market (SPY), Another lower low, Bearish Engulf, and a Bearish Oreo Cookie pattern. Yesterday was a particularly bad day for the market. The pre-market futures this morning don’t seem to be finished pushing the market either. As we have been posting, below $297.95 was the line that the bulls needed to capture, below $297.95 was chop and dangerous place to be buying to my longs, and closing below $293. 70 was going to bring in a bear storm. Right now I don’t see too much from stopping the bears sell us off to the $ 290.00, $288.80 area. We had bought some VXX yesterday with a possible move offer the $25.00 Line (so far so good. Over the $25,00 line, we possibly could see $26.40, which would be a SWEET PROFIT. And possible challenge the $28.00 range.

T-Line and T-Line Channels, Another day below the T-Line Bands (Channels), and a lower low. The August price action makes for a smooth trend line drawn. Looking at the premarket action price is already below the line, the bears (sellers) are a bit hangry. The VXX chart us pushing up through the T-Line Bands like butter and now have established a little support over the bands.

The bottom line, We should never rule out a monster bullish reversal on any given day, but until it happens the closing candle today and the recent candles (price action) can lead us to $288.80 then possibly the August lows. Managing your portfolio is far more critical than finding new hot trades to trade. Here is a good quote I heard years ago…”Don’t eat like a bird and poop like an elephant.

The market (SPY), Yesterday was a Doji / Harami day in the SPY closing below our bullish number of $297.95 and above our bearish number of $293.69. The 34-EMA still is above the 50-SMA, and price action is hovering around both. On the hourly chart, price is in bed with the duces (200-SMA and the Dotted Deuces), the 34-EMA and 50-SMA has kept price pushed down. Price simply needs to be above $297.95

T-Line and T-Line Channels, Price action on the daily chart has fallen below the T-Line and the T-Line Channels. If the Price action gets below the $293.70 line, we should see the T-Line Channels start to lean a little to the downside. The weekly chart has price action between the two upper channels on a bullish pullback; I say bullish because the withdrawal is above the 38% retracement of the August low and September high run and above the 293.70 support line.

The bottom line, Below $297.50 and above $293.70 is just a tug a war between the buyers and sellers, think of it as one significant indecision Doji. The winner will show it’s colors soon. This flat trading can be challenging to navigate; I personally think the key is not to over trade.

The market (SPY), Above $297.95 today may open the gate for more buying to challenge the $300.00 level and above. The low Friday ($293.69) started to test the August, May and September 2018 support level and found the 50-SMA, the question now will the buyers be able to build a game here? Both the daily and weekly charts of the SPY show no signs of buyer Friday.

The weekly trend from June 7, to mid-August, extended still paints a bullish trend. Now if you take in the top from June you will see a double top. The chart pattern building is a weekly Ascending Triangle. IMPORTANT, if the SPY closes below the 50-SMA the bears may have cut the legs off the buyers. Beware if VXX can show strength above $25.40

The bottom line, stay calm and remember you do not have to trade every day. Cash is a position. We have bought very little over the last few trading days, but we have managed what we own and have close a few for profits. I have personally found by waiting for the reversal pattern (Bullish or Bearish) then trade the trend after that is pretty profitable.
