…but first, we have to actually be in a trend. Mr. Market has not been very kind, and in fact has been downright nasty, to both bullish and bearish traders who have presumed a sustained trend in their favor over the past three or four months. As I note in the video below, I have no interest in being a hero going into next week. I would most certainly welcome a fresh bull leg higher, as they tend to be relatively easier markets. If we are, indeed, poised to break above this multi-month trading range and begin a true sustained uptrend, then by definition there will be time to get on the momentum train.
Until that happens, however, I will respect the range. In addition to the price action, other indicators have been flagging overbought conditions, namely The PPT.
NOTE: If the video is too small for you to see the charts, you can double-click on the screen and watch it on YouTube.
