Trannies: A Technical Look

As you can see by my careful analysis, the transports are bumping up against “the line of (certain) death” resistance. That shit is like a brick wall. No way it breaks that, son.

Also, if you notice on the graph above, “trannies blow.” Moreover, over the past year, tops have been met with “mad faces.” Although I do not see a mad face at the present, I expect one to develop, literally any day.

Finally, it’s worth nothing, this recent trannie run is being fueled by “bullshit” volume. Furthermore, most importantly, there is an ominous “tic-tac-toe top” formation at current levels.

If I were trading the transports, I’d sell them quicker than a 1 dollar pork sandwich in Beijing.

Trade accordingly.

    If the jobless claims are above 350k to 370k, look for another 80K in job losses. If its above 370K, which i doubt, believe that we will get less than 45K in job losses, which will look better than expected on Friday. Cover shorts for major indices during end of thursday if a huge jobless claim is reported.

    Where the data to prove this, you will have to think really really hard but its there..hint look at the past 8 months of all jobless claims and the payroll reports, there is a huge discrepancy.

    ADP Report has +5K jobs.

    I think the jobs report will be less than 45K losses, and the market will rally on the news.

  13. hmm

    I am looking at a chart of HSCEI.IND vs. SHSZ300.IND (Hong Kong vs. China mainland shares). They track each other pretty well up until 3/19, at which point they start moving in completely opposite fashion (mainland continues downtrend, HK shares melt up). Just curious, what the fuck is going on over there? Did they secretly change it so FXI is now the inverse ETF for China?

    The last time the Fly put up a bearish technical analysis chart, didn’t the market rally? That and the beholden “golden bear” will get us over 13,000 again.

    btw Fly, I’d lay off that FXY. HSI & SSEC have come down too far to bet against here. You may(of course) be right, but I don’t think the risk/reward is there, at the moment.

    In fact, I think its a better bet to go the other way and possibly dust off a basket of some of those dusty Chinese Lotto picks. The former leaders should lead and when the run is about over, the crap. And when the crap starts floating, I’d get long FXP.

    thats my game plan, du moment… subject to minutely/hourly/daily revision, of course.

    Jake,

    Not exactly from The City, but the Big Sac (where I am from) is only an hour away. BTW, looks like all the guys on CNBC have found common ground – everyone hates them. Instead of comming together to be defiant, understand the fucking message. Arrogant pricks.
