$SPX - Chart Link - once again plays out
like it normally does, below in the morning I said to expect price
move sideways to higher and for the MACD to recycle back to zero
and price back to the 50 SMA which would take until the afternoon,
and 60 Stochastic to stay above 80%.
Now that price is testing the 50 SMA and MACD has recycled,
generally in most cases you get another pop to form a divergent
high by late afternoon such as the last 1 - 1.5 hrs of the day,
then perhaps pullback the last hr.
60 Stocahstic stays above 80% either all day or finally dips
below by the last hr, otherwise it's way too early for it to dip
now
Here's a video that I made back in September of last year on how
large gap days tend to behave and what to look for using a 5 min
chart with various indicators like MACD, MA's etc. Now this
one pulls back the last hr with the 60 stochastic losing 80% in the
last hr, but a lot of these type days also do not do this and hold
up and pullback the next morning instead.
Can't thank you enough Matt!! Timing of the video and comment
were perfect!! Combined with the MACD Trending indicator
vidieos...were exactly what i needed!!
Lots of shorts on the watchlist!! Some of them seem to be at
good levels to short here imho like SPG, RE, HON, KSU and
others..... I try one or two....

What do you think about

What do you think about shorting IYT instead of SPY using this approach? The rationale is the transports have been weaker. Does that make sense?

thanks for the bump, I'll have a closer look @ the charts.

update on volume % looks like everyone left for the beach after the open -- now only a few above average and IYT only on track to do 13% of average
