SHORT-TERM: MORE LIKELY TODAY’S HIGH IS NOT THE HIGH

The market showed a very strong up momentum today, so whether there’ll be a pullback or not tomorrow is not important anymore. What really matters is, the pullback if any, more likely is buy because more highs ahead. The reason still is (my famous) “an forward accelerating car cannot be reversed without slowing down first”. Such a forward acceleration can be witnessed by the RSI overbought and new high made today, therefore at least one negative divergence is needed to prove the up momentum is weakening hence some chances of reversal thereafter. In another word is that there must be a new high on price but not RSI first, otherwise it’s not a negative divergence, then we’ll have to wait for the next price new high while RSI fails to reach a new high, such a game can go on and on, the key is the momentum must be weakened first.

RSI

INDU made a higher high today, also implies that SPX will have a new high.

I’m sure people would point out that the candlestick pattern is ugly today which is a Doji or Shooting Star. Yes, that’s right, but if you read the chart carefully, for all such a candlestick recently, the highs got revisited first before any meaningful pullback. So combining with the evidences I provided above, there’re some chances that SPY may revisit today’s high tomorrow (making a new high so as to let RSI form a negative divergence), and if on such a revisit, however, SPY fails to make a decisive breakout again, then the real pullback could begin.

SPY

So to summarize above, the trading strategy could be like this:

  • Drop at open without higher high first, then it’s a buy because there’s no RSI negative divergence.
  • Making a new high first but fails again to breakout decisively, then be careful of the pullback which is long overdue. Such a pullback, however, I believe won’t be too much (which conforms the Route A, I reiterated in the yesterday’s report), therefore could also be a buy opportunity. The chart below should prove why the pullback, if any, won’t go too far, because Normalized CPC is way too high, implying big guys are already well hedged (prepared).

SHORT-TERM: MORE LIKELY TODAY’S HIGH IS NOT THE HIGH

今天的上涨说明上涨动力很强,因此明天有没有pullback已经不再重要,重要的是,pullback如果有的话,多半是buy,因为还没有涨完。理由还是向前加速的车不经过减速是不可能突然倒退的,这个向前加速表现在RSI上就是overbought and new high,这样,就至少需要一个negative divergence才可能减速,然后才有倒退的希望。这就是说,price多半还有new high,否则是不可能和RSI构成negative divergence的。

RSI

INDU今天率先higher high了,也是说明SPX会有new high。

有同学会指出,今天的棒棒很难看,是个Doji or Shooting Star,不错,但是仔细看,前几次SPY在形成类似今天难看的棒棒后,都有个回测前高的动作,结合上面的证据,因此不能排除明天回测今天的high的可能性,如果届时,还是不能有decisive breakout的话,那就真的开始回调了。

SPY

综上所述,交易策略:

  • 明天开盘就跌,那比较确定是买,因为RSI没有negative divergence
  • 明天先新高,但不能decisive breakout,就要小心回调,但这个回调,我认为多半跌不到哪里去(跟我昨天的报告里重申的Route A是一致的),因此可能也是买。下面的图可以证明这个回调,如果有的话,多半跌不到哪里去,因为Normalized CPC太高,大户们早就hedge好了,就等着你来砸盘呢,嘿嘿。
