anyone know if this 3 day weekend is traditonally bullish? Did
anyone ever find that seasonality calendar?
Pre-Holiday Rally
Due to general optimism, stock markets tend to
rise ahead of three-day holidays in the United States such as
Independence Day, Thanksgiving, etc.
I haven't been here all day but the $NYAD is not working anyway,
the markets are just too choppy for day trading with 30 min. up
then 30 down. never the less, it went on a sell for the spy about
1:50 pm
Meaghan, you know what they say, "there is no such thing as a
dumb question, just dumb answers"; at the risk of giving a dumb
answer here's my take.
The maket can what ever and when ever it wants ad money flows in
or out. The 200 DMA is watched by lots of traders and is considered
a safe way to stay on the right side of the market but since the
markets were taken over by machines that trade $Trillions$ at
the speed of light it's not nearly as important as it used to be.
Here's two charts for you to log and watch, first is a my spy
chart, the spy fell sharply below the 200 dma last Aug. if you had
waited for that to happen as a sell trigger you would have left $10
on the table. But if you had bailed out when the stocastics and
willaims gave a sell signal you would have caught the whole
move.
Next is a chart of percent of NYSE stocks above their 200dma, it
is great tool and one to watch, it too would have protected
you from that huge move down.
also notice on the spy chart that it is starting to give
a sell signal yesterday with the slow sto 14 crossing over
the 3, I want to see it get below 80% and other indicators turn
down as well before I go too short but the markets are ripe for a
sell off at this time.
Seems like it gives great signals when I'm not looking, so
tomorrow I have a dentist appointment at 11 AM, be ready to trade
and make some money for me!
Oh, and Friday, I'll be leaving town about the same time, so
LOOK OUT!
I just got back from town, the $NYAD gave another scalp trade
short signal at 2:50 when the sds would have been at about $18.18.
I should have gotten back sooner!
Interesting chart on the Q's, look how many times this level of
$58.40 has stopped the price and how many times it's jumped it to
form gaps in the last year. The projection for breaking out of this
wedge is off the charts but roughly $63 is the target.
I have to go out in about an hour but the $NYAD is giving a sell
signal, say SDS $18.10. now we will find out if this market is
strong or just forming a bull trap.
