Just Because a Rally Stinks…

Just because a rally stinks to high heaven doesn’t mean it cannot continue higher. But for how long? A few years ago, the correct answer would have been “indefinitely.” Now, however, because NYSE breadth made a dramatic top in May (as predicted definitively by our friend Peter Eliades), we know that bulls are living on borrowed time. For our part, we’ll continue to take the rallies one synthetic leg at a time. Will DaBoyz be able to extend yesterday’s running of the bears for a second straight session? Our first clue may lie in whether they can blow past the 1922.25 Hidden Pivot resistance I’ve proffered in the chat room for the E-Mini S&Ps.

    Copper has made a nice little move on a daily chart.

    On a monthly chart, I see HG testing support at about $2.25 right now on a line from $.75 in 2003, and $1.37 in 2009.

    Those three data points carry a nice straight line from 2003 to 2015, reflecting where support held in 2003, and 2009.

    We will see if it holds or fails at about $2.25, I am certain I am not the only guy on the planet looking at that monthly chart.

    Big rally tomorrow. Making my money now on the counter move rallies off sharp drops. Expecting 1975 either tomorrow or Friday. Can go a bit higher to the 1990’s but I don’t count on it. Next week we should see yet another drop to 1850 or so. Wild moves but typical near the end of the bear correction.

    Batten down the hatch because after this final drop (by end of Oct) you will once again shake your head as the granddaddy of a bull run will be seen.
