Weekend Update…

Special SUNday Video Picture Update...

In this weekend update, I decided to put up some video's showing you where I think we are going next week.  (Be sure to enlarge the video picture to see everything). I studied many different charts from several different Technical Analysis experts.  All of them are listed on the blogroll, and I encourage everyone to check out their charts.

I'm simply trying to summarize what I see from looking at their charts, and present it too you in a video format.  Of course I'm going to agree with some of their forecast and disagree with others.  It's up to you to figure out if it makes sense to you.

So let's look at one of my favorite chartists, Ron Walker of The Chart Pattern Trader.  He is quite good, and does daily video's that you all should watch.  I learned a lot about TA's from his video's, and you can too.  I've learned most of what I now know from other people's sites.  I guess that why people put their stuff on the internet... to help teach others.  Anyway, let's look at what I see from his charts...

So, to summarize again what I'm expecting for next week.  I expect to fill the gap around the 1115 spx on Monday or Tuesday.  That's about 112 spy, and it lines up perfectly with this fake print.  Notice that the date is May 20th, and it is "Real Time".  Also notice the large spike in the chart, which had 2,040,896 as the volume (you can't see it now).  It was in the afterhours session of the 20th, and the market was never there during regular hours.

Is this our upside target for Monday or Tuesday?  Could be?  Remember, some of these prints could be just late fills from earlier in the day.  We did trade there on the 19th... but not on the 20th.  So, just keep that target in mind, but focus on the 60 minute chart, as it's the key to whether we continue selling or start a rally back up.  I will be looking closely at the daily chart to see if it appears to be hooking back up during Monday and Tuesday's rally.

If it hooks back up, then there is more likely a big rally coming.  I'll be looking at the 60 minute charts' histogram bars, and the spy and spx actual price.  If the histogram bars start rolling over and falling, but the market starts trading sideways, or just slightly down, that could be a bull flag form, which would mean that the daily chart is providing support to keep the 60 minute chart lifted up.

I believe a move above 1140 spx would be very bullish, and at that point I would re-think the bearish position.  I need to see that daily chart hook back up first, before I'll be going long.  Right now, it's still very bearish.

Let's move on to the 2nd video where I go over Cobra's charts, Shanky, Kenny, Daneric,  and Tony Caldero.  Plus, I mention a new website that a friend mentioned that is calling for a Dow 7070 by the end of next week.  Yeah... that's pretty bearish!  I'm not going to agree or disagree about that bold prediction, but after seeing a 1,000 point drop in 20 minute happen... anything is possible.

Finally, I want to ask a favor of everyone.  Please watch one more video...

You can find the link to help here on this site, as well as on Anna's site.

Thanks in advance everyone...

Red, that is not going to fly. Don't ever use the word 'scared' when you are talking about a tough woman!!!! You got a death wish?!
Change that ASAP or you are just pounding more nails to your own coffin.

You really don't know anything about women. lol Give this a rest. She doesn't want to be reminded of this episode. And stop spilling your guts for everyone to see. Where is your pride and backbone? No women would respect that.

Your only route to redemption is to become a super trader. lol So hurry on and go suck up to Sundancer really good, hoping that he will have pity on you and teaches you his methods. LOL

No, the video stays. I know she is a tough woman, but she trusted me, and I was wrong. It's the trust that I lost that is so important. I was wrong, and I really did pressure her out of her positions. I should have just presented my case, and let her make her own decisions. But I pushed too hard, and for that I'm sorry.

Well, John Wayne was probably too tough. I don't think most women today would put up with him. He would get slapped in the face a lot, I'm sure. Of course he would then bend the woman over his knee and spank her. LOL.

That wouldn't go over too well today… but thanks for the advice.

It will pass in time you know. We have a little family going on here, and we lost Sundancer, and then messed up with Anna. Then their are my own personal problems. I used too have a job, but I'm not sure about that anymore? I might have too trade for a living… sheeesh, that's scary!

It's probably best that I never learned it, as it might get me in trouble. It's best to stick with TA's and good old fashion gut feeling. I'll be back to my old self soon. Too many things on my mind right now.

I still have to see the doctor about getting this skin cancer removed from my neck. It's not serious or anything, but still something to worry about. It's a round circle about the size of a cap from a magic market, just below my left ear.

The doctor's say it's common, as a lot of people get it on the left side because of driving down the road with their left arm out the window, and left side of their face to the sun. I guess they get it on their right in Europe… LOL

Could be a bull flag as long as it doesn't take out 1070ish. Shanghai is up 1.31% as I type this. Take a look at $SSEC on stockcharts and admire that whopping white candle from Friday. If Shanghai prints another big white candle, the quants will take this as a bullish signal, no doubt. I just don't know how high it will go.

I don't know either Dread?

I was thinking about 1115 spx to close that gap, which is about 111.78 spy (I think?), and then the 112.08 spy fake print is telling me that's where they want too go.

EW Guy has about 1100 spx, but either way, I don't see it going up too far on Monday… at least by looking at tonight's futures.

Red,

Thanks for putting together the videos, I appreciate the effort you put forth in showing all those traders forecasts.

My outlook is inline with yours as I see the stock indexes moving higher on Monday and putting in a high of approx. 1100, which will set us up for further selling on the downside.

Not so sure about the DOW 7000 though lol.

A chart of my S&P outlook can be found on my website which is of course http://www.Elliott-Wave-Education.com, for those who are interested in a wave analysis of the E-mini contract.

Good luck this week everyone!

Hi Red,
This is my first time here and I am very impressed with your work. I too have only been trading for a year but you are so much farther head than I am.

This past week at Trade To Win I saw where Keirsten was talking about your fake prints and tonight in your video you showed one [June 25: 7300]. Could you tell me where I could learn more about these and where I should look for them. I uses stockchart.com but I take it these fake prints happen only in the AH markets, correct? Also is there a link on your blog to the Wilshire chart that you showed in your video? That was very interesting.

Ok one last question, I promise! 🙂 Where can I find Anna so I can donate? I too am a big animal lover. Thanks Red. Keep up the good work.

Anna's website is Hot Option Babe, and it's listed here in my blogroll. She would greatly appreciate it, I'm sure. The donate link is here on this site… just to the right a little, and up the page.

The fake prints are not supposed to be found. So, I couldn't tell where to catch them. You just have to keep you eye open for them, should they show up somewhere.

The Wilshire chart was caught by someone else, and sent to me. It was just blind luck on that one…

By the way gang, the link to the site I'm talking about in the video's about that is calling of DOW 7070 by the end of the week is…

http://www.baminvestor.com

and their twitter feed is…

http://www.twitter.com/baminvestor

Add that to your “following” list, as they might be on to something? I really thought 988 spx would be the bottom, as it's the lower moving average on the monthly chart.

But right now, I would throw out the idea of Dow 7070 as this market is really looking sick right now. Those computer bots could cause a total collapse, as they seems to be running the market now… not human beings anymore.

I just was told about their website on Saturday, so I didn't even browse though it yet. I just read their twitter feed, and that was one bold call about 7070 dow by the end of the week.

I'll be going short again on Monday or possibly Tuesday, and I'll stay short until I see some what happens when we tag the 20 month moving average on the monthly chart around 988 spx.

I don't like the long side, as I play options and the vix going down while the market goes up, would kill my profit. I'll probably just sit on the sidelines in cash,until I see the dust settle.

A rally will come, but another sell off is coming first. How low is anyone's guess? I think at least the 20 MA on the Monthly chart, for starters.

By the way, was that chart free, or did you subscribe to their service?

I wouldn't bet on a 7070 Dow next week. The market is very oversold, near the point of capitulation, and after that will rally big-time after a bit of a fight getting over the principal moving averages.

This correction is based on dollar strength, which is ridiculous. It is almost over.

Rip Van Trader

Forgot to mention in my post about possible scenarios these next few days that we may have a feint to the downside, say 1067, before a rally, if any.

The important thing to bears is that SPX stay below about 1120. It can either go down from here, run to 1100, run to 1120, or do cartwheels. If it goes up, buy additional inventory.

The upside within this range is totally unpredictable. Red, I hope you don't get caught empty-handed today. If you can get back in where you got out, great.

The analogy is skipping a stone on the water. You're pretty sure it's going to sink, but at what moment is anyone's guess. I wouldn't bet on the stone staying up in the air.

Carl’s morning call:

June S&P E-mini Futures: I still think that the market will drop into the 1030-40 range before turning upward. My range estimate for today is 1050-1080. Once the low has been established I think the ES will begin a rally that will take it to 1300 and higher.

1070 – 1186.75 range last night (16.75 points)
1050-1080 estimate for today (30 points)
average actual range last 10 days has been 25.4 points

1077 currently, so estimate is -27 to +3 from here (wildly bearish)

If you look at the 10 minute chart (or 15 minute chart), you will see and inverse head and shoulders pattern, with 2 left shoulders, one head at 105.64 spy low, and now 2 right shoulders that have formed.

Once it breaks out, the upside target is about the gap fill level of 111.76 spy. That's my idea shorting target, should we get there?

I just looked at the 60 minute, 30 minute, 15 minute, and 10 minute charts in my Think or Swim account. There is a downward sloping trendline that is keeping this market from advancing.

It's riding the top trendline of this channel. It's unlikely to push through today. Which means that it will either have too gap above it tomorrow, or fail and continue selling off.

It's very bearish right now, as I really expected a gap up this morning. Not a huge one, but something to get out of this channel. The 60 minute charts are looking to be overbought soon, which means that tomorrow could be a down day… unless the market can gap up out of the channel?

No change in outlook
We continue to be negative on most markets
As shown on the charts sent on Sunday, most world markets are down because of negative cycles
We still have a low projected later in June, and continue to stand aside
We wanted to go long call spreads on Goldman Sachs, per our intraday update last Friday – only where the net debit in the two positions is around $2.50
That is our only long position
This trade is based on a possible cycle low for GS
The S&P got close to our downside price target of 1033 before the bounce
There is still time left to see that downside target

Sector
Based on the Wave count that we sent on Sunday, we could see a bounce in Gold and Silver
probably up to 1199 and 18.04, respectively
Based on cycles shown on the XAU and Gold, we feel that it is too early to go long
A close below the support line around 1140 for Gold will be more negative

Crude
Crude got close to our downside price target of $67.90 (July)
Cycles are still down for a few weeks
A close for July Crude above $71.80 will be a signal NOT to be short, short term

Nat Gas
Gas continues in the trading range, but will now give a short term buy signal on a close above 4.16 (July)

US Bonds
Cycles are now up into Oct
Not everyone bought the 10 year at around 4%
It is difficult to find the right entry level right now
Only a close for the 30 Year below 123.17 and a close for the 10 Year below 120.21 will be negative
However, this is only short term
We are bullish on the Bonds

Bunds
We continue to be bullish on Bunds
Cycles are up
We could see 129.65, as long as there is no close below 127

Euro
We still can see some bounces for another week
Longer term, our downside price target continues to be 118
A good low is projected only by July

I think we'll see VIX 33 area tomorrow, and another push higher on the market. I'd like to see the gap window closed a 111.78 spy, but it might not go that high?

A gap up open tomorrow would be good for the bears, and that means they plan on taking it back down fill the gap. The move we just had, left a gap at 1087.95 spx, which will also be filled at some point in time.

Whether that is today, tomorrow, to later in the week is unknown. But they always go back a fill gaps at some point, and it' usually when they get close to it.

That's why I believe the 111.78 spy gap will be filled, as it's like a magnet right now, and the market want's to go there. If it makes it there, it will be the perfect spot to go short.

The $VIX is down a lot., even though the market is slightly red. Some one big is buying. I think the trendline will break.

I think a lot of retail investors feel the same as you — they expected a big gap up, they didn't see it, so maybe they're getting out.The $VIX is down a lot., even though the market is slightly red. Some one big is buying. I think the trendline will break.

I agree with you Dreadwin. There is no real selling volume here, which tells me they will go higher tomorrow and fill that gap. They are just churning out the weak hands right now.

The biggest mystery to me is this. Since you all admire Sundancer's work so much, yet no one bothers to try to clone his charts? Happy to be given fish but no one cared to learn to fish?

Better to sit and watch paint dry.. LOL

Money has been flowing stealthly into Finance, Tech, Foeign, and Small stocks all week last week, and accelerating since 10am last Thursday. Such (broadbased accumulation + panic selling) almost always = one big eye in the storm. Gonna be painful trying time for the bears. Good if you are a masochist.

Like everything ese, useful info is often found with lots of noise and useless materials mixed in. The key is to sort out the good stuffs from the noise.

The whole point of learning is to sort out the useful and discard the not useful stuffs.

I am not interested in criticising him or any particular poster. Well, except for Red! LOL That is b/c his purpose in life is to serve as an example for others! LMAO

My point is, some of his work is useful and that people should have learned those. Simple stuffs, like the so called teal line on the hourly chart. There is nothing magical about that line. It is basic TA 101.

I think the reason the market could push up too much higher today, was the fact that the 15 minute chart was overbought and needed to reset itself lower before another push higher.

It's below the zero line now, and should roll back up into positive territory by the end of the day, allowing for one more push higher tomorrow… as long as the 60 minute chart is still going up.

I think we will see our high in the market before noon tomorrow, and then the 60 minute and 15 minute charts will roll back down to the downside, and be aligned with the daily, weekly and monthly.

The selling should last until Friday I suspect. Should be a wave 3 of 3 down. Of course I don't know how high we will go up tomorrow, but we need a gap up open to help the bears out, as that means the gap will want to be filled later.

Plus, it will get the market up higher, so it will fall further down later. So started rooting for a gap up tomorrow, as that is good for those bearish, and will allow those bullish to bail out… if they are wise enough?

The 60 minute chart is still point up, but the 15 minute chart is now oversold. The bulls need to gap open tomorrow to break outside the channel. I think they can do it, and by mid-day both charts will be overbought, and then some selling into the close should happen.

The 60 minute chart is still pushing up, (but looking like it might rollover right here?) But, the 15 minute chart was overbought all day today, which didn't give the bulls enough power to break out of the falling channel.

Right now, the 15 minute chart has finally rolled down into oversold territory and should be turning back up into tomorrow. I expect a small gap open to get out of the channel, and a push to 1100 spx.

At that point, I think both charts will be overbought and selling will happen into the close, and continue all the way to Friday.

Remember, once both the 60 and 15 peak tomorrow, and start back down, they will have the daily, weekly and monthly behind them… pushing down harder and faster. It should be a wave 3 of 3 when that starts.

The whole key is to wait until all 5 charts are all pointing in the same direction. Bulls should bail out when the charts peak, and then become bears.

It's looking bad right now, but I still think it will turn back up tomorrow for one finally high… how high is unknown? Call in a bear squeeze and bull trap… as this sell off doesn't look like it yet.

Yeah, it might give the bulls a chance to get out? This market is going down hard after the 60 and 15 minute charts go into over bought territory, and start turning back down.

At that point, I see a wave 3 of 3 down coming. That's what the charts tell me… but of course no one knows for sure. The ideal thing to happen tomorrow is for some good consumer confidence numbers and retail sales data to cause a gap up in the morning.

I like to see that happen, so I can get short at a great spot…

We are now in a New Moon Trade, which tends to favor TZA.
TZA opened up 1.5%, and the opening gap was filled. TZA was up 4.5% at it’s high, and closed up 4.0%.

AmericanBulls had TNA with a Wait today. TNA was down today, so TNA will be a Wait again for tomorrow.

AmericanBulls had TZA with a possible sell today, but TZA was up, so TZA was not sold. TZA will probably be a hold for tomorrow. The buying price was $6.10, and TZA closed at $7.63, up 25.0% in 5 days.

Volume for TZA today was 17% below it’s 1 month average. Bad for TZA.
Volume for TNA today was right at it’s 1 month average.

$RVX (VIX for $RUT) closed down 5.3% with TZA up 4.0%. *****Big divergence.

TZA had been down 1 day, up 3, down 1, and now up 1 day. Choppy, and went no where the last 2 days. Not good for TZA.

The low for TZA was from 19 days ago at $5.30. Today’s low was $7.22, 36.2% higher. Good for TZA.

Today, Ultimate Oscillator for TZA fell from 54.7 to 56.1 (+1.4) while TZA was up 4%. No divergence. Good for TZA.

MACD fastline & slowline both above zero rising Good for TZA.

Bollinger Bands for $RVX (VIX for $RUT): Today, $RVX fell and closed lower below the top Bollinger band. The fast MACD line is flat, the slow line is still rising. This is the 3rd day of a 3-day sequence ending in a $RUT buy signal. Sure looks like a $RUT buy signal. Bad for TZA.

Bollinger Bands for $RUT: Today, $RUT had a red candle that closed above but near the lower Bollinger Band. MACD is falling sharply. Hard to read.

Last Thursday: On the NYSE, down volume was 73 times the up volume. Usually, the market bounces after a number this large. Maybe not the next day, but the day after that.
Last Friday: On the NYSE, up volume was 9 times the down volume. A nice bounce, as expected (for today or tomorrow).
Today: Expected, but did not get a bounce in $RUT. (Good for TZA)

TZA had a much lower high & higher low & higher close (Good for TZA)

Money flow for the Total Stock Market:
$ 1,568 million flowing out of the market 2 days ago.
$13,442 million flowing out of the market yesterday.
$ 232 million flowing out of the market today.
Good for TZA.

I will post the AmericanBulls candlestick interpretation a bit later.

Overall, Good for TZA for tomorrow

The Daily view from Americanbulls

TNA was a Wait today, was down 3.9% today, and remains a Wait for tomorrow.

TZA was a possible sell today, was up 4% today, and is a possible sell again for tomorrow. The buy price was $6.10, and TZA closed at $7.63, up 25.1% since the buy.

Of the stocks & ETFs I follow, these are to hold on to:
SLV(silver)
UCO(2x Oil)
GS
ERY (-3x energy)

The list to avoid:
TNA (3x $RUT)
UUP(US Dollar)
USO(oil)
DRI
GOOG
DIA
SCO (-2x Oil), DTO (-3x oil)
DZZ (-2x Gold)

The following are possible (but unlikely) buys tomorrow:
AAPL
AMZN
DRV (-3x RE)
EPV (-2x Europe)

The following are possible (but unlikely) sells tomorrow :
IYR(1x RE), URE(2x RE), DRN(3x RE)
EWG(Germany)
EWQ(France)
EWU(England)
SRS (-2x RE)
FAZ (-3x Financials)

The following are quite likely buys tomorrow:
IWM (1x $RUT), UWM (2x $RUT)
GLD (gold), UGL (2x Gold)
ERX(3x energy)
SPY
QQQQ, QLD (2x QQQQ)
EWX(emerging mkts)

The following are quite likely sells tomorrow:
RWM (-1x $RUT), TWM (-2x $RUT), TZA (-3x $RUT)
SPXU (-3x $SPX)
QID (-2x QQQQ)
DXD (-2x DOW30)

Summary: A bit more Bearish
Action for TNA or TZA for tomorrow: Likely sell of TZA, avoid TNA
