10am update - opening reversal... to the downside

The US indexes break new historic highs, with sp' 1898...yet we're seeing a rather sharp opening reversal, with most indexes seemingly set to all turn red. VIX is similarly offering an opening reversal. Momo stocks under extra downside pressure.

Summary

..back from an early lunch, and the market sure has turned around in the opening 20 minutes.

Notable weakness: AMZN -3%,  FB/TWTR, both -2%....weak weak weak!
-

I have to note blogger 'VT' at Trending Waves, I'm inclined to follow his micro count.

Was this mornings open the top of a sub'1...and now we see a retracement across a few days?
-

10.09am...and now a wave higher.....what a whipsaw choppy mess. I'm glad to be on the sidelines..this is a real mess.

If new high >1898, then the opening reversal was of course a failure.

VIX collapsing,,  new low.. 12.67..... incredible.


10.32am.. It remains a somewhat choppy mess, but the broader market is holding gains..

Notable weakness in tech, but the momo stocks are turning positive.

Again, its a case of 'no downside power' for the bears. 


10.46am.. hourly chart, double spike top.....bulls unable to push....bears have another major opportunity here..at the typical turn time of 11am.
