    First off we discussed our bias for July being a strong up month and that trade low in June due to the charts telling us and bullish seasonality, which has played out well. The time to go long was not now based on 1 monthly candlestick, but a month ago or 2 weeks ago. We've been playing this to the long side

    Given the economic backdrop I'll continue to count this as a bear market rally unless evidence changes. We project, monitor, and adjust to what the market does. If the market changes and evidence confirms it we will adapt with it as always.

During past bear markets when this MA was lost, it was re-tested during the first large bear market rally (2001 and mid 2008), also take note of the 14 length Stochasic.

    clarification - the focus on my post was the 20 month MA, or the monthly middle Bollinger Band: That middle Bollinger Band or 20 month MA is where I see as a target. The chart also has the 14 Stochastic that has strongly lost the 50% area. I don't see the bear market rally causing the Stochastic to test the underside of that 50%, it's too far. 

    the focus on that post was the 20 month MA
