3pm update - weakness into the close

The smaller 15min index cycle looks like a clear bear flag, with a probable snap lower into the close, although the 1770s look somewhat out of range. The metals are weakening, with Gold -$10. VIX is battling for a daily close in the low 15s.

GLD, daily


Summary

Well, it looks like we have a very reasonable chance of closing in the 1782/78 range today, with VIX 15s.

I am increasingly concerned at the bearish hysteria out there. We're barely 2% from the historic high, and people are now calling for big multi week drops into the low 1700s by early January.
-

Primary trend remains UP...and I shall be highlighting that tomorrow morning..when I'm guessing we floor in the low 1770s.

updates into the close.....


3.15pm.. breaking through the hourly 200MA 1786...a further 6-8pts viable into the close.

As ever, always threat of gap higher (although I'd guess no)...and bears might be wise to consider exiting into the close.


3.23pm.. in the previous ABC wave of late oct/early nov...the C wave was 6pts lower than A floor...

right now..that'd be equivalent to sp'1773..by early tomorrow.

So..BEST guess..we floor in the 1774/72 zone tomorrow, by 11am..and then..UP.

There can be NO Excuses for those on the short side right now.


3.32pm.. 1784...another 2-6pts to go...with a minor drop Thursday..by 11am.

NO EXCUSES ..bears!

NONE.


3.39pm.. further we fall into the close..the better chance of low 1770s tomorrow.

considering the broader daily charts...very best case, a test of the 50 day MA @ 1760..but I do not see that as viable.

Best guess remains.. Thursday .11am...1774/72.


3.46pm...Well, we're in the end day target zone of 1782/78

Now its a case of how low we are tomorrow morning.

*clown finance TV hosts seem to be getting a bit rattled. Gods forbid..a close -1% or more !


3.51pm.. a close in the upper 1770s would be a real bonus for the bears.

On any basis..should see at least 'some' follow through early Thursday.....go bears !!!
