SPX Ranges for Friday - SPX settles in under the downtrend at the close. UNG IYR USO XLF Focus

XLF had a weak close going through the wedge, IYR hung in there, USO at res, UNG possible bottom here




SPX downtrend break into the close - see if it holds

Position trade UNG at $12.93

XLE lagging off 5% from Wednesday Highs down 2.2% here

TLT reverses from under $97.40 on a little bounce...watch for this bust to lead the market for a while.. Fed lost control of 5 yr to 20 year T Bond interest rates

Gap fill'in or reversal? 874 lows here (Daily RSI is flattening also...still no "closing new high" yet to officially give a non confirming new high)

SPX did't stay above channel too long...back in channel @881. 30 points to lower channel

SPX Daily update - the RSI is going the right way for my melt up and the 5 min shows we worked off over bought here

It just feels like a melt up is coming, however a few points

Short trades have been only good for 1.5 to 4hours tops.

Real bull market are steady, going up and down 2 - 3%, with not many wild moves...tracking above the 13 and 21 EMA.

up 35% in 2 months is crazy, but so was the 30% dip in the beginning of the year. We started the year at 940 so we may have more swings now that the market is almost calling it even.

the SPX is still below the 200 DMA and the weekly is below the 40 week EMA.

Lots can happen before and till we get to the 40 EMA weekly. 2002 shows we were given another chance to short indexes and then get long before the real bull market started.

The Fed is desperate to inflate and create another stupid bubble (worked on T bonds but it blew up, next this run on equity and maybe housing will improve again, but probably commodities).

Looks like buying the dips works or just buy and hold and cross your fingers.

SPX 888 ( remember 666?) at highs here...well move damn it!!

Market looking like a short may be possible here 884

ETF Movers

TNA +11% FAS +9% ERX +8% TAN +8% KOL +7% EWY +6% URE +5%

11.33 is last XLF high...if it breaks above it it should run hard on my spike theory

Also the Melt up scenario is / could be underway.... watching SPX day RSI to confirm (must get to a new rsi high if SPX can get to close above 875.63. If the RSI fails at new high SPX PPS then red flags go up.

USO just under trend line on the daily..Dollar down 1% (UUP)

SPX XLF USO IYR update... into overbought area now..needs to back and fill




If we could just get more bad news, like the world is ending, or white bread is poison, then maybe we could hit all time highs.

Wall of worry is a yellow brick road.
