Just last evening I posted a chart detailing the significance of the 1350 level in the S&P 500 index. The Morgan news has sent the index reeling and back down BELOW this level in the reopening. Note that each time the index has fallen below this level, it has managed to recover before the bell rings that marks the end of the day's trading. If we go into Friday and this index closes below 1350 to end the week, particularly if it actually manages to close below both 1350 and the lower red line near 1339, we could see the US equity markets plunge rather sharply the following week. Look at how the rising 100 day moving average has basically been holding this market up the last few days.
Technically a poor close below that average will get the attention of technically oriented chartists.
Stay tuned on this one as this sort of thing has the potential to send equity traders heading to the hills until the dust settles out. Morgan may not be the only one with problems.
Hi Dan,
ReplyDeleteI just happen to watch that cramer show, primarily for entertainment, but I notice that fear of a big sell off is growing. He (cramer) also warned of a potential big sell off. He had a technician talk about the relation to the VIX and the CCI index. He was suggesting when the CCI bottoms the VIX tends to rise. I hope I heard that right, but I was just curious of your opinion. If you don't have time, thats fine. I understand. I do appreciate all you do for us common people! Thanks again! Just seems like all hell my break loose soon. We'll see!
Great call Dan!
ReplyDeleteThank you Dan.
ReplyDeleteIf the S&P 500 does start moving lower, I hope it won't also pull mining shares down with it.
