SHORT-TERM: KEY DAY TOMORROW

As mentioned in today’s After Bell Quick Summary, according to the past FOMC red day pattern, we need a green day tomorrow to avoid further pullbacks. The question is, will we have a green day tomorrow? I have no idea (well, I know you know I’d say that. LOL). However, the very unique thing I noticed is TICK closed below –840 which looks very ominous. As illustrated in the chart below, normally such kind of so negative close should only occur on a big red day, while today SPX is just a small red, so the question is why TICK closed so negative? In another word is that people rushed to the exit right before the close, why was that? Could be some bad news awaiting us tomorrow?

VeryLowTICK 

For short-term still suggest not getting to bullish. Besides the 09/21 to 09/23 time window and 1.0.0 S&P 500 SPDRs (SPY 60 min) showing lots of negative divergences, there’re 2 additional bad signs today:

VIX Leads SPX, negative divergence plus cross below EMA20 again. Will the 3rd time be the charm? Personally, I consider this chart as very reliable, so a pullback should be imminent.

6.4.3a SPY Bearish Reversal Day Watch, as long as we’re not repeating what happened in April, a top of some kind should be close.

INTERMEDIATE-TERM: STATISTICALLY BULLISH FOR THE NEXT 2 WEEKS

We could see 2 to 3 legs up while now is the very first leg up. See 09/17 Market Recap for more details.
