Unprecedented Oversold Condition

A little birthday gift from me to you: The PPT is indicating an unprecedented oversold condition. As a result, I bought the following stocks in size:

[[FLS]] [[MTW]] [[TYH]] [[ATPG]] [[RAX]] [[TYH]]

Size and prices are in The PPT. I’m a little busy now.

Here is a little “end of the world” tune for you, for your listening pleasure, as the world, umm, ends.

    Dow 11k this summer, 12k by September.

    There is no way the ecb cuts rates here. The next newswire to report the ECB rate cut rumors as fact deserves a 1 way ticket to Guantanamo bay

    When Fly says unprecedented he is not shitting. And when he says size he means buffalo balls on the block chopping carrots size.

            Not a chance with the socialists in the throne room.

            In fact if you want to make a long term wager I’ll bet that by 2020, barring a complete global meltdown and Armageddon itself thrown in for good measure, 40% of the US population will be supporting the other non-productive 60%.

            I am tickled sideways and pink that Kwame is going to jail. Hopeful that it will send a message to others like him (but I doubt it) and praying he does the entire 5 due to bad behavior. The guy and Detroit are both embarrassments to our beautiful state. Now if we could just get Governor Jenny a room in the same hotel we’d be halfway home.

            We hit 80 against a dropping euro. Stabilization in $CAD $AUD and $NZD, along with a euro squeeze, could make oil gap 10 dollars per week—pre-lehman style. I don’t think 110-120 would be difficult. But, 90-95 could start to hurt retail/discretionary again

            The dow, an export driven index, was able to rally for 6 months in spite of dollar rally. T
            his means the next bounce could move twice as fast, as it could actually have the benefit of a dropping dollar.

    Hey Birthday Boy, Hope you don’t mind but I am posting my analysis on FLS here, This weekend I sooooo wanted to play w/PPT but I got stuck with ASCO research for next week, but it’s coming. Here it is, FLS support at 80.07,82.42,if can’t hold 89.71 w/94.40 resistance…..so bottomline, if
    under 90 it’s a failing knife ala the divebomb it took in 2008…..which you know is soooooo cool that 90 is exactly the 50% retrace high/low from 2008 low and high….look at 2008…ouch…..THIS is exactly the SAME point Jake’s yesterday SNDK was at…cool huh.

      But SNDK was hitting 50% level on the way up, FLS hitting it on the way down, which makes 90 a very strong support which super ouch if it can’t hold.

    the last two years has been “unprecedented” so going long “in size” based on “unprecedented oversold conditions” is meaningless.

      I would argue that the past two years have not been “unprecedented.” Wall Street is just going through another one of its periodic scandals. There’s been a “crisis” every few years since forever. Granted, there aren’t as many this century as there were in say, the 1800’s (when shit blew up every other year) — but the market conditions now are only gut-wrenching relative to what we were used post the dot-com bubble burst.

    So accepting the “oversold” diagnosis, and I do:

    I would be interested in any insight on the interaction between “oversold” markets and scary events in the news. Today was are oversold, but war threatens the Koreas, for example, which scares markets.

    Does the news just postpone the “necessary” correction up, so we should expect it in another day or three? Does the “oversold” really only govern if the news is neutral? Or are we to believe that the PPT or whatever is somhow accounting for the day’s news already (part of “fundamentals” or whatever)? Is there a lag in accounting for news?

    Not to argue with the prowess of the PPT, but I have not yet seen any real signs of the “capitulation” that tends to mark extreme oversold conditions and temporary bottoms. How can the PPT suggest we are at “unprecedented” oversold conditions?

    OEW also nailed the turn … Hope H5O took my advice last night and refrained from deploying his cash into shorts …. here’s tonight’s summation with a warning regarding a positive CIT unless 1090 is broken.

    “The SPX gapped down at the open hitting the OEW pivot at 1041 exactly. This low fully retraces the entire Feb-Apr uptrend and found support at the previous 4th wave of a lesser degree, Major wave 4. After that the market rallied back to the 1058 pivot, stalled for a couple of hours, and then broke through on the upside. Despite the spike down and reversal today the action was still not enough to turn the short term OEW charts positive. Remember the downtrend swing pivot is at SPX 1090. Above is postive, below remains negative.”

      Teahouse,

      My most accurate trend following system says short at 1044 and as such gave a signal to short today. and although I hadn’t read your post until just now, I didn’t short.. thanks god. However, I’m still not convinced we’re not going down some more.

      If you don’t mind, I’d like to understand the body of literature that you seem to refer to frequently as I am not familiar with it.

      So please advise. I am still learning and would appreciate your suggestions.

      Thanks!

        When you click on his charts you’ll find a key at top that will assist you in reading the waves as labeled, therefore Primary, Major, Intermediate and so on. Tony does a weekend report where he reviews LT, Medium and ST waves and does some informative/instructional posting from time to time. It’s taken me some time to pick it up without a course or formal manual to study but I like a good challenge and find that’s it’s been a great timing tool.

    OK I know I should have learned PPT this weekend vs Asco research….this market and FLS interest me…FLS was oversold, but moving up into the close I wonder how it’s PPT score changed…and with Eur/USD moving up to resistance levels…..did that effect FLS being a global growth play PPT score??? Has anyone mixed PPT with fibo analysis yet? Also, hitting that 1079ish/1082 resistance does that change FLS PPT score………………………..Shanghai Comp almost flat, Shanghai Copper up a bit, but not a lot, yet Rebar down….strange Steel up, Ore down in spot prices…..even it’s choppy….FX just chopping around too……………..Fly, Will we sell the Durable Goods News even if BTE?
