THE SHORT-TERM TREND IS UP, I HOLD LONG POSITION OVER THE WEEKEND

I don’t have good feelings for the next week. Very strong momentum guarantees more on the upside, that’s for true, but if you drive your car over 200 miles per hour on a 50 mile limited road and still accelerating, that’s too much.

At least I don’t expect the next Tuesday to be up much if not red, because TICK closed above 1,000 today.

With no exception, NYADV MA(5) argues for a red Tuesday.

One short setup: SPY up 3 days in a row while volume down 2 days in a row (so called price volume negative divergence), short at today’s close, surprisingly worked well for the past 3 years.

Enjoy your long weekend!
