The chart above looks at the short-term picture for the SPY. Normally these indicators on this chart will show bullish or bearish signs before a top or bottom is completed. The top window is the McClellan Oscillator and reading above “0” are a bullish sign for the market and today’s reading came in at 55.97. Next window down is the NYSE up volume/NYSE down volume/ NYSE down volume/ NYSE up volume. This ratio does a good job helping to identify a trend by staying on a bullish or bearish crossover. The red arrows represent the bearish crossovers which one was triggered today. The bottom window is the NYSE advance with 5 period moving average and NYSE Decline with a 5 period moving average. The red arrows represent the bearish crossovers. The advance decline moving averages is holding on to a bullish signal. Two of the three indicators are on bullish signals, which implies the short term trend remains up but weakening. Long SPX on 2/3/15 at 2050.03.
The above chart looks at the bigger picture. The top window is the McClellan price Oscillator and second window form top is the McClellan Volume Oscillator. When the market is vulnerable for a top the McClellan price and Volume oscillator are below “0”. We have identified previous instances with red arrows when both oscillators where below “0”. Current reading for the Price Oscillator is at 77.56 and the Volume Oscillator at 41.84 and implies the market is safe for now. The bottom window is the NYSE common stock only advance/decline line. Since mid January the A/D line has been making higher highs and higher lows and a bullish sign for the NYSE longer term. When this A/D line makes lower highs when NYSE makes higher highs are signs the market is heading for trouble. There could be a consolidation in the not so distance future, but with the indicators on this page showing bullish signs, the potential consolidation should be mild.
Today’s low went below the top of “A” leg and suggests that an “ABC” pattern was in progress from the November low and opens the door to a test or break of the November low at some point. However our longer term charts suggests a test (or modest break) of the November low is likely rather than a new leg down. There could still be a bottom forming here and a bounce up but likely the best Market Vectors Gold Miners (ARCA:GDX) could do is a test of the January high near 23 range. GDX/GLD ratio is still showing a positive divergence and a bounce may form here. We put a dark blue line 7 period moving average on the GDX chart and when its above this line, decent rallies formed and when below this line decent declines formed. Right now GDX is below this trend line and suggests the short term trend is down. A close above 21 most likely will turn this line up and a bullish short term sign. Seasonality charts turn back to bullish in the June to July period. We are back on the sidelines for now. For free 30 day trial just drop us a line to tim@ord-oracle.com.
