the rally seemed to be backed by the market internals, at least up until I stopped watching them. I can't wait for Monday. Really, I was expecting to go bearsih with the jobs numbers, but I guess slightly worse than expected numbers were already priced in.

 

Something interesting I've noticed from jobs numbers reports, is that you tend to get a fast shot in price in the opposite direction from where price will close. When we quickly dropped six points on the ES at 8.30 I was thinking we might finish up.

Well, I like to make little videos, that way I can go back and hear myself later and think, what was I thinking then. I've found it very useful to my learning.

 

Here's my brief analysis of the ES, SPY, and why I decided to sit on my hands today on the Thai market. Tuesday seems like a good candidate for a down day. We've an evening star pattern right on prior resistance with declining volume, and we're hitting the 50% retracement zone.

 

Here's my video:

And last night we had a big hammer with the VIX continuing to bleed. Starting to look more and more bullish. The support is holding. I often find that after a fake out break out like we had last night that markets tend to break out for real in the other direction, or they stop halfway to their mark, turn back around again, and take out the same direction. We'll see.

I'm still bearish even with the candle on the SPX. Intraday on a thirty minute we had range extension to the down side, and failed range extension to the upside, plus a selling extreme. We also closed beneath the 775 support area and weren't able to challenge the low value area for the day. The TRIN spent most the day above 1, the down value was about three time that of the up volume, and BANK never filled its gap. Hard to find too much bullish there.

I'm sea sick.

 

 

 

Don't want to buy the low value area with internals being bearish, and don't want to sell at the low value area and so close to major support. Sitting around bored.

 

 

I could imagine a bounce up to the fifty fib from the last sell off.

I don't have my charts up but I would expect 700 to be some big resistance. Also I believe 740 was the fifty percent retracement from the last sell off, but again, I don't have my charts open. Personally, I'll look to short the ES at 699.25. I'll get a little sggressive.

Awesome bounce! Backed by market internals as well, I imagine they'll be some follow through. I'm closely watching 740 on the ES. If market internals turn bearish near there, I'll be looking for shorts.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
