SHORT-TERM: MORE UP BUT IT’S A SELL OPPORTUNITY

Two cents:

  1. Could see more up until perhaps the day after tomorrow FOMC announcement, targeting 06/14 highs.
  2. Will temporarily regard the current rally as a sell opportunity.

The chart below explains why I think more upside ahead: Ascending Triangle or Cup with Handle.

For three reasons, I think this is a sellable bounce.

  • I’ve given the first reason in today’s Trading Signal:  Price Volume Negative Divergence.
  • The chart below shows the reason number tow. If you still remember how SPX used to rebound from a bottom then apparently the current rebound is much weaker. That said, there’re always some exceptions so maybe this time it simply starts slow, may catch up tomorrow, so let’s wait and see.

  • The third reason is OEX Put Call Ratio surged again which looks suspicious as today’s CPCE reads merely 0.57. This means people were buying lots of calls while OEX option traders bought lots of OEX put and historically, OEX option traders are more often on the right side of the market.
