Market Is On Razor's Edge

SGS  Market Timer Status:  NEUTRAL 
NEUTRAL as of the close of June 16, 2017
SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer


SGS is below its DTL and things could get ugly next week.


Chances are high that we see a sell-off and test of PUL-3 sometime this coming week.

My Plan

I'm still 1/3 in long in SPY.  I am watching to see how SPX does if it sells off to test its PUL-3.

SGS Is "LONG"

SGS  Market Timer Status:  LONG 
LONG as of the close of May 26, 2017
SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer


SGS went up and closed above its DTL last week, but it's still below its ADL. 


I'm not sure where indices are heading.

My Plan

I'm watching from the sideline to see of SGS would close above its ADL.  A close ADL this coming week would be bullish and I would feel comfortable opening long position at that point.

NEUTRAL as of the close of May 12, 2017
SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer

On Friday, SGS closed below its DTL (13 D-EMA), signaling a sell-off next week.

Chances are high that SPX sells off to test supports shown on the weekly chart shown above.

Volatility Is Returning

SGS  Market Timer Status:  LONG 
LONG as of close of November 11, 2016
SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer


Generally speaking, things are pretty bullish and indices could go up another 10% to 15% from here before we see a sizable pullback.  There are signs, however, that point to no or limited advance in indices.  As shown in the chart above, SPX challenged its recent all-time high (2400) in the last couple of weeks twice but both times on a shrinking number of news highs s and expanding number of new lows.  That is a classic bearish divergence.

SPX unsuccessfully challenged its all-time high last week again. I expect another volatile week ahead and a possible test of its TUL and PDL-0 around 2365 and 2340, respectively.

My Plan

My plan is to open my first long position of three in SPY and QQQ sometime early on Monday.

Another Volatile Week Is Coming Up

SGS  Market Timer Status:  LONG 
LONG as of close of November 11, 2016
SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer


Again SGS ticked higher every day last week, touched it ADL on Thursday and on Friday it ticked lower for the first time in 10 trading day.  This is all very bullish and chances of indices going much higher are good.

My Outlook

SPX unsuccessfully challenged its all-time high last week. I expect another volatile week ahead and a possible test of its TUL and DTL around 2340.

My Plan

My plan is to open my first long position of three in SPY sometime this coming week, hopefully into a sell-off to test support at 2340.

Volatility Continues And Presents A Buying Opportunity

SGS  Market Timer Status:  LONG 
LONG as of close of November 11, 2016
SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer


SGS ticked higher every day last week, signaling that sell-off since early March very likely has run its course.  On Thursday and Friday, SGS closed above its DTL signaling a good entry point for opening long positions. 


As shown on the chart above, while SGS is "LONG", i.e. SGS value is greater than zero, SGS crossing its DTL have been good points to open (when crossing above DLT from below) and to close (when crossing below DLT from above) long positions.

My Outlook

Chances are good that the sell-off since early March ended last and indices are heading higher to challenge their new all-time highs. I expect a volatile week ahead because of the election in France and the possibility of a government shutdown on Friday.

My Plan

My plan is to open my first long position of three in SPY sometime early this coming week.

A Volatile Week Is Very Likely Ahead

SGS  Market Timer Status:  LONG 
LONG as of close of November 11, 2016
SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer

SGS ticked lower for the week, signaling more selling is very likely in the coming week.  As of the close of Friday, all major indices (DJI, DJT, NAZ, RUT and SPX) are trading below their 50 D-SMA's. That's bearish and signals more selling ahead.

My Outlook

Bears are firmly in charge now and will push indices much lower next week.  I expect SPX to test price support at 2300 and its PUL-2 around 2260.  A close below PUL-2 on weekly basis would signal significant selling ahead.

My Plan

No change since last week, I am going to follow SGS and start buying SPY if SGS starts to uptick and closes above its DTL. If SGS continues lower and crosses its zero line and turns "SHORT", I would start opening short positions in SPX by buying SH.
