I added a correlation indicator

    Posted by timebandit on 8th of Aug 2022 at 08:47 pm

    I added a correlation indicator to this $NYMO chart a few months ago, and since then this is the first time I have seen it become this uncorrelated with $SPX. You can see that two of the three prior occurrences (vertical cyan lines)  signaled sustained selloffs. The third time there was a one-day pullback.

    @timebandit - can you please

    Don't understand the question. By the way, that was a nice chart you posted earlier

    I thought you were suggesting that since the third time selloff was so nominal that the indicator might not be valid this time for another meaningful sell off 

    Oh, gotcha. Sorry, I should

    Oh, gotcha. Sorry, I should be clearer. Let me try it differently. First off, I haven’t been watching this indicator on this chart for that long, so it’s harder to draw meaning from it. I can look back on it through the years, but I’ve found that is less helpful than when I try to draw insights from it on a daily basis amidst all the uncertainty of the market backdrop.

    That said, the three instances all marked by vertical lines on this chart coincided with market pullbacks. Two of them were multiday moves down, one was a day or day and a half pullback. As an indicator, it would therefore appear to have some significance. But that is only three data points. I thought it was worth highlighting but I want to spend more time with it, God willing
