Double Your Bearish Pleasure, Double Your Fun

______________________

In addition to plethora of “shooting stars” printed on Wednesday, which I discussed last evening, 12631 member and long-time reader “Yogi and Boo Boo” points out the bearish island reversal on the SPY today too. Note the gaps on either side of yesterday’s shooting star candle, leaving that candle on the proverbial “bearish island.”

Now, I do not want to extrapolate too much from this other than short-term caution. Reason being, I believe a fair amount of charts have made considerable progress over the past week or so, and an orderly pullback would go a long way to firming up those charts even further. However, anticipating a bullish higher low is often a tricky proposition and is likely one of the easiest ways to permit your bias to destroy your capital. Thus, I am still left with being in a position of open-mindedness above all else.

The bears have a good opportunity here, and they are off to a solid start today. If this market is truly going to change character and break up and out of this range, the bulls had better stop these textbook bearish patterns in their tracks soon.

    Man, the Doublemint Twin commercials have gotten a lot better than when I was a kid!

    I always thought “island tops” implied actual islands… you know, more than one or two candles?

      I know. But the when you compound it with the shooting star it’s enough to at least warrant caution. The shooting start was textbook, the island top is not.
