... to follow the down side of the double cycles, shown in
Figure 1. In doing so it is quite likely that we will see the Dow at
the 8000 level again before the cycle turns up. If that formation
takes place, and if the market does follow the double cycle down, then we
will likely put in a Head-and-Shoulders bottom, from which we could take a
sharp bounce. But, it will be from much lower values than we are
currently seeing.
That said, I am going to be putting more weight into my short trades than into the long signals over the next month or two. When the market gets into a bearish mode, as seen by the current RSI configuration and by the trendlines drawn over the tops in Figure 2, the long signals often don't turn out to be very profitable, but rather are just whipsaw adjustments in what turns out to be a continuing pattern down. Intraday today was unproductively choppy with a gap opening up which had no follow-through. In fact, it just gapped back down and spent the remainder of the day going sideways. In Figure 3 take a look at the pennant formation drawn by my Pennant Finder indicator. The lower line on the pennant is pretty close to 25.00, which is where we are experiencing support and resistance (the Attractor). Notice the magenta line I have drawn beneath the lows on the RSI indicator. That line is in divergence with price, at the top of the chart. This sort of divergence generally resolves with the market getting back in synch with the RSI indicator, by going up. So, even though my longer term view is currently bearish, on the short term chart I think we can move back up to 26.20 before tumbling down again, to get in synch with the longer term chart. This sort of conflict in indicators is one of the reasons it is so important to follow a prescribed strategy--hopefully one that has been tested and proven to have a CPC Index greater than 1.2. When those about you are losing their heads, you will be able to hang onto yours and be firm by following your strategy. We are not hoping to win the lottery here. There is more of a chance of getting hit by lightning twice than in winning the lottery. We are not hoping to hit home runs either. My goal is simply to steadily add more in the profit pile than in the loss pile. Over time, that's what success is made of. As always, be cautious, be nimble, and good luck! I'LL MAKE YOU ANOTHER OFFER. Send a friend my way for one of the upcoming seminars, and I'll give you $250 cash. Take your loved on to a nice dinner out on me. |
