Into the Close…

_______

…I am eating a sandwich. Today is an inside, doji day after Friday’s huge reversal rally. My opinion is that it is important to not be too dramatic in this situation. As ugly as the action feels, the broad market has not sustained any technical damage that has negated Friday’s rally.

In other words, chill out and come back tomorrow.

    Today is an ugly downtrending channel today and we’re closing on the lows
    No digestion or indecision out there, just one big fade

    Financials sucking and look at SMH, that chart is just 3 sides of ugly

      Intraday, yes. On the daily charts, this is a textbook inside day, with the frustration and negativity that usually accompanies it.

        The daily charts on the financials are what worries me the most
        They’ll need to bottom out before we go anywhere

    I’d currently be running around with hair on fire, trampling your sandwiches … if not for being solely into VXX, in my scarebear cave. TNA might coax me out tomorrow, though.

    Nice perspective, as always Chess.

    looks like technical damage to me on a daily, reversed right at trendline on s&p

      Peely:
      if you can take a look at the 30 min. 25day chart of SPY, this damage is even more apparent!
      cheers

    If we lose 1039/1040 again I will be right there with you. However, today was still a classic inside day regardless of how bad it felt or looked.

      and you are totally correct, my friend… the price range today qualifies…
      IM(never to be confused with)HO, the 30 minute and 65 minute daily charts and the weekly/monthly give little comfort…
      multiple time frames can be useful, too… (actually, that is my HO)

    I am watching TBT very closely. If the sell-off in TLT from Friday is reversed, I am going all short immediately.

    Chess, are you long COCO? You brought it to my attention, and I’m up a little over 7% right now. Thanks for the idea.
