A Critical Week Is Coming Up

SGS  Market Timer Status:  LONG 
LONG as of the close of Friday Jun 14, 2019
SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer
Why Market Timing Is A Must



So far earnings and outlooks have been a mixed bag of satisfaction and disappointment. This week more companies report and more data is released on housing, employment, and GDP.  Also, there is the likelihood of breaking news related to Iran and Muller's testimony before the House.  I expect a volatile week.


SGS declined last week and didn't confirm new all-time highs in DJI, SPX and NAZ.  That's bearish especially when leading indices RUT and DJT are nowhere near their new all-time highs.



Support and resistance levels for SPX for this week are shown above.  As shown above, there are two rising wedges on the price chart for SPX, a small one and a giant one.  A price break below the smaller wedge early this week would signal a high likelihood of a price break below the bigger wedge.


My Plan

I'm watching indices and SGS for now.

Earnings and Forecasts Will Make Or Break Indices

SGS  Market Timer Status:  LONG 
LONG as of the close of Friday Jun 14, 2019
SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer
Why Market Timing Is A Must



Starting this week, markets get to assess Q2 earnings and forecasts for major companies listed on NYSE and NASDAQ.  Companies are widely expected to meet their earnings but if their forecasts for future earnings are not rosy, indices would correct between 5% to 15%.  The correction could become much deeper if the US-China trade negotiations fail or a new war breaks out in the Middle East.


SGS advanced last week, confirming new all-time highs in DJI, SPX and NAZ.  That is bullish.


Support and resistance levels for SPX for this week are shown above.  As shown above, there is a giant rising wedge on the price chart for SPX. That is bearish.


My Plan

I'm watching earnings and forecasts for several companies this week.  If all rosy, my plan is to open my first of two long positions in QQQ.
