11am update - breaking bad

The trans, R2K, and Sp' have now broken their FOMC  highs, only the Nasdaq Comp' and Dow are lagging, but they aren't far behind. There is arguably nothing but open air from sp'1439> 1474.

VIX, daily


Summary

A rough day for all those in bear land.

Arguably, the recent post FOMC re-shorts should all have gotten the kick >Sp'1438.
-

Dollar..and VIX both on the slide. VIX daily chart looks especially bad, with MACD due to break negative tomorrow.
--

On any basis, the bears...failed.

All the downside momentum from the major FOMC in mid-September...gone.

Transports, making a break for it...



The recent 4 candle spike/flat top..completely negated. This is a clear breakout.

UPDATE 11.20am  Nothing but open air until sp'1474



To think that Santa has not even arrived yet. Add on 5-7 days of Christmas trading zero volume algo-bot melt, and we'll be at new highs.
