SPX Up Against Primary Downtrend Line

SGS is Short.

SPX hit the primary downtrend line today (thick blue line).  This trend line should turn SPX back and forcing it heading south again.  A solid close above this line (i.e. SPX closing at 1120 or higher) would very likely push SPX higher to its 50 D-SMA, around 1140 (green curve).

If this Market is heading substantially lower, it should start that way tomorrow.

Half Way Done - Another Half To Go

NASDAQ Composite (COMPQ), Russel 2000 (RUT) and S&P 500 (SPX) have dropped about 13% from their highs of late April.  By late June to mid July, they'll very likely shed another 13% to reach their 50% retracement levels of their late April highs.  Those levels are roughly at:

COMPQ:1950
RUT: 550
SPX: 950

Next Two Weeks, C R I T I C A L

Three scenarios to consider:

1. Less Likely: Continuation of the bull run that started early March 2009.

2. Likely: Market sells off more despite being very over sold, until it dramatically crashes down to SPX 950-900.

3. More Likely: A rally back to SPX 1120-1150 over the course of next two weeks and then declining back to retest last week lows, SPX 1070- 1050.

I like 2.

Possible Downside for SPX ....

SGS is Short.

SPX seems to be sandwiched by 50 D-SMA (as the resistance) and 200 D-SMA (as the support).  There is a good chance now that SPX comes down to retest its 200 D-SMA at lower 110X sometimes this week.

SGS is short.  Full portfolio update this weekend.

Possible upside for SPX ....

SPX seems to be sandwiched by 50 D-SMA (as the resistance) and 200 D-SMA (as the support).  There is a chance we break above 50 D-SMA, but I think we'll very likely stop at lower 1170's.

SGS is still long.  Full portfolio update on Friday as usual.

My plan is to buy the following 10 stocks (equal $) once SPX hits 1061 (we might see that tomorrow or on Thursday).  These stocks have an average of 7.6% dividend yield and are chosen because of their price performance and high liquidity.  I'm not going to post changes to this portfolio.  If you're interested to get the updates, please send me an email and I include you in the update mailing list.

Sorry about the late post, www.blogger.com was down last night.   

A Correction is Underway

Since March 2009 lows, SPX has corrected twice, dropping 9.1% from its peak in July 2009 and 6.5% in November 2009.  This correction is no different from the previous two and I expect a drop of 7.8% (average of the last two) from the recent SPX peak of 1150.   That suggests 1061 as the low point for this correction, very likely happening intraday either on Monday or Tuesday next week.

I looked at currently top ranked stocks, none of them looked that good to me.  My plan is to buy the indices once and if SPX  hits 1061 or lower.  I'm going to use "conditional market buy orders" to open these long positions:

SPY 20%, QQQQ 40%, IWM 40%

Good Luck.

2009 is Coming to an End

SGS is Long.

For the last 6 months, SPX has peaked at a new high near the middle of the month, then sold off and hitting its cycle low near the end of month or the beginning of the next month. This cycle is being repeated for November as well. What's important is that all mid-month highs are new highs (all higher highs) while end-month / beginning-month lows are just cycle lows (all higher lows). So, there is an excellent chance that we see a new cycle low next week (probably in low 1070's, around 50 D-SMA) and the rally resuming to make a new high in SPX probably by mid to late December.

My plan is to sell all positions in  RTS 20091015 Long Portfolio on the next cycle high, I think we probably see 113X on SPX by mid or late December.
