SHORT-TERM: CPCE TOP SIGNAL CONFIRMED

No more excuse, the breakout yesterday is confirmed today, so according to the Measured Move, the SPX could go as far as 1291. Personally, I don’t believe this target, however, no matter how many reliable bearish signals, as long as the price action doesn’t confirm, being a bear is a dangerous job, so let’s just wait and see (and in addition I give bear my most sincere moral support). The bottom line, as I said before, whenever you see me “has to” hold both long and short overnight (see short-term session in the table above), it’s probably the time at least to reduce the long position.

SPX60min

Nothing else to say. The CPCE top signal mentioned yesterday is confirmed. At the current stage, I really don’t know if it works or not (Sorry, I know I’m not supposed to comment like this. Well, considering the comment as extra credit for the top signal, if you like). Purely from seasonality point of view, until the year end, only 2 days have some hopes for bears, the 12/23 and the 12/31.

CPCEWatch

INTERMEDIATE-TERM: COULD BE WAVE 5 UP TO SPX 1300+, PIVOT TOP COULD BE AROUND 01/05 TO 01/12
