Well, the markets are manipulated by the Central Bank. Someday
they will let it go, but apparently not now. You think the VIX
smash down at 8:45 every day is random?
yes of course, but technicals go hand in hand with that, the
intermediate and long term charts are still bullish with bullish MA
configs, nothing ever changed with that. When the longer term
charts and MA configs start to change i.e. flatten out and roll
over the market will be ready for a larger correction or bear
market. It will probably coincide with central banks - again it's
generally in the charts. The last time we say the
intermediate term technicals display warnings was in late summer
2015, then of course we saw the 12% market correction in Aug/Sept,
then another correction in Jan - Feb 2016. Point is the charts were
warning of it and it played out regardless of what central banker
or Fed did
this what I'm referring to when I discuss MA config - see my
written annotations on this weekly SPX chart, notice the MA's are
still very wide compared to what they were in late July 2015 before
that major correction
Well, the markets are manipulated
