Take Off Tuesday

Failure is good. It's fertilizer. Everything I've learned about coaching, I've learned from making mistakes.

Rick Pitino

So far, the reaction from the SPY $153.55 low has been very sharp with the SPY rallying higher by more than $4.00 in three days. This is a large price move for the S&P 500 Index, but not unusual. Yesterday, I wrote that the major stock indexes would likely have more of a bounce left in the tank since the NASDAQ Composite was leading the major stock indexes from that low pivot made on April 18, 2013. I suspect tomorrow will be a flat to slightly positive day as well. Thursday afternoon, or possibly Friday will be a time when the major stock indexes could be vulnerable to a decline. Remember, there is a lunar eclipse Thursday afternoon at 3:57 pm EST, so this Friday the markets could feel the affects of the eclipse. As I sad yesterday, most eclipses will slightly favor the downside, but sometimes the markets could react positive. Either way, all traders should be prepared for a large price move in the major stock indexes.

After the closing bell, Apple Inc reported earnings that are being well received by the market makers. The truth of the matter is that Apple Inc is still a broken stock and this move looks to be a dead cat bounce for the equity. Many other market leaders are not reacting as well as Apple Inc and this will make for a good trading market regardless of what the major stock indexes do.    


The S&P 500 Index finished the session higher by $16.28 to close at $1578.78. The master resistance levels for the S&P 500 Index is 1585, 1600, 1612, 1629, and 1652. The master support levels for the S&P 500 Index are 1577, 1554, 1536, 1513, 1497, 1475, 1458, 1436, 1420, 1398, 1382, 1361, 1346, 1325, 1310, 1289, and 1274, and 1253.

Uptick Monday

The public, as a whole, buys at the wrong time and sells at the wrong time.

Charles Dow

The NASDAQ Composite lead the major stock indexes higher today. This tells me that there is a likely  bounce in the making for the next few days. Whenever the NASDAQ Composite leads the major stock indexes higher it is a sign of strength as investors are taking on more risk. Remember, very few NASDAQ stocks pay a dividends, this is unlike the Dow Jones Industrial Average which has every stock in the index paying a dividend. Think about it, there is a big difference between Netflix (NASDAQ/risk) and Procter & Gamble (DJIA/safety).

This coming Thursday there will be a lunar eclipse. In the past, eclipses have caused big moves in the stock market. As I have stated before, 60.0 percent of the time the eclipse is bearish for the stock market. Now please understand, there have been times when the eclipse has been bullish for the market so please read the Daily Market Report on Wednesday to see what the charts are telling me. Either way, make sure that you protect all trades in the money and always have and use stops on all positions.

Over the next few days we will be watching the pattern forming very closely on the charts of the major stock indexes. If any bearish pattern forms on the daily charts of the major stock indexes I shall let you know. There was a lot of  technical damage done last week so we must remain nimble at this time.  

The S&P 500 Index finished the session higher by $7.25 to close at $1562.50. The master resistance levels for the S&P 500 Index is 1577, 1585, 1600, 1612, 1629, and 1652.

The master support levels for crude are 84.00, 79.00, 74.00, 69.50, and 66.00. Please remember oil is very sensitive to adverse weather, geopolitical events, and the U.S. Dollar.
