...a bounce as this new year begins, toward 10,000.
Traditionally, depressions are ended by wars. The war machine
creates jobs and gets the economy running again. My marines friends,
here in north county San Diego, tell me that 75% of the first Marine
division was just deployed this weekend. So, maybe that will be the
answer to the direction of the markets.
TRADERS: The QQQ short-term model is still long, but as I told you in Alerts last week I took profits and am sitting on the sidelines waiting for the market to push through resistance. If the QQQs get above 25.70 with strength in the RSI I will probably go long again to get back in synch with the model. Because the QQQs were weak, and because it was a holiday week, I decided last trading session to take profits on a weak showing of the RSI. The SPX also showed holiday weakness, hitting 881.08 4 times during the week without moving on up through the resistance. So far the formation is a W bottom, but it could become a head-and-shoulders eventually. The 15-minute model on the SPX is long, but the most obvious place to take profits would have been 881.08. So, for this one I'm in wait and see mode. The 15-minute DIA still has a little room at the top, to move on up to the resistance at 86.45. I see a complex Head-and-Shoulders in place on the 15-minute chart, so the DIA might not move up as high as that resistance for the moment. INVESTORS: The monthly and the weekly Dow charts show short on the model, with the daily model just now peeking above the 50-day moving average. The 52-week high is at 10,500, about 2000 points above where we now stand. In spite of the past week's weak showing, the Dow's daily chart is in buy mode, which I intend to ignore until price passes 8945 on the upside. If the Dow passes 8945, especially if it is on above average volume, that would convince me that the Dow could keep going on up to the 200-day moving average. When it passes the 200-day moving average, investors usually get excited and the market rallies for a while before retesting the average. That scenario makes a lot of sense to me. On the other side of the coin we have an inverted Head-and-Shoulders that never quite made it all the way into formation. So, I've discounted that scenario in my mind, which would have called for much lower prices. So, as always, stay nimble, humble and take small losses and big wins. |
