The New Moon is on or about March 2. They say that the best time to start a war is on the darkest night. Obviously more people than I know this and the markets are just drifting along indecisively waiting to see what the new moon will bring. The area I highlighted in yellow on Figure 1 is the low of the pennant formed by the eight bars that follow it. That number is 7940, just barely above where the Dow closed today. |

The attractor at 84.66 on the SPY
is keeping pressure on the markets from that aspect, working in
conjunction with the overlapping cycles which are also exerting downward
force. From that chart I expect to see the next couple of days to be
down or sideways. As long as the SPY doesn't move below 82.55,
however, I believe this market activity is becoming bullish. Of
course, only the market will tell us the truth in the end. But, for
now, I think we are putting in a short-term bottoming formation.

If enough people read this and
agree, and act accordingly, then it won't happen. The synergy of
market players is such that when too many people stand on one side of the
boat, the boat tips over. Looking at the daily chart of the QQQs, in FIgure 3, you can see that price is still inside the box, but moving precariously toward the bottom edge. My expectation is for price to break beneath the box once again before making a forceful move in one direction or the other. It will tell us which way it is going, but not much before hand. ATR is diminishing, and RSI is staying boringly low, as you can see. XXX |

My last mention of gold was to say: "Gold has been doing a little retracing, which is taking it down to the 340 range. That won't last for long, before it starts rising again." Well, it has begun that rising now. It didn't quite get to the 340 mark before turning around, so that's a show of strength. I expect as rumors of war continue that the price of gold will go on up until hitting the 380 mark again. | As always, stay nimble and quick. And never be afraid to take profits even if it seems early. They add up. God Bless. | ||||||||||||||||||
