The stock market is weak and every move higher is immediately sold. Today we created a lower high which is a significant signal of a trend reversal. Tomorrow we may see a bounce up higher – I expect the market to bounce up to 2107 level, but then we may see a renewed selling pressure. Continue reading →

SPX trend expectation for the next week
Last week trading was within my expectations. Thursday trading was a small pullback based on the previous strong rally.

Thursday pullback drama and outlook for tomorrow, Friday, March 20

FED frenzy
FED announced that the interest rates hike is unlikely although they removed the word “patient” from their report. The market spiked up in seconds. It went from 2061 to 2080 in a few seconds. I was able to open a bull call spreads expiring tomorrow and next week for this spike as well as one Continue reading →
Quo vadis FED?
Trying to assess where the market would go now is close to impossible. We have FED coming out with their report and the clowns at Wall Street will take their leaf reading witch craft ability to guess what Janet Yellen meant by keeping or removing a word “patient” from their report. Based on that they Continue reading →
