    NYSE M0mentum and Strength

    Stockmarket:
    ...institutional accumulation should really go with a strong market advance but NYSE momentum weaker; SPX 500 mixed to higher but remains hesitant to eclipse resistance from the Sep 29 Peak *1069 and the Sep 17 Peak *1074. At these levels and due to the holiday weekend, risk is for a shallow 1-2 day corrective pullback to affirm *1047/*1051 congestion before turning north again. A successful defense of that support range should foster an additional 2-3 trading days worth of gains to retest the Sep High *1080/*1100 target range en route to a major double top. Failure in that zone will leave the market vulnerable to a 20% (+) sell-off during most of Q4 targeting a retest of the July Low * 869.

    ...as far as market internals goes, a bit strange; the market labours up, the direction is neutral with a tilt to the bearish side, up-volume almost matches down-volume, and advancers go almost quit pro quo with decliners;
    ...maybe Stocktiming.com is correct in its assertion that as Marty Chenard mentions: "If you look at the Institutional Buying & Selling chart, you can see that they have been buying less while continuing to increase their selling (profit taking). Institutional Investors have been selling slow enough for the market to absorb their selling. This is a prescription for an unusually sharp down day when the market fails to absorb the amount of Institutional selling."

    The Bullish Short Term Take:
    Barton M. Biggs runs Traxis Partners, a multi-billion dollar hedge fund based in New York City. He formerly held the title of "chief global strategist" for Morgan Stanley and was with that firm for 30 years.

    Friday, October 9, 2009
    ...although Barton Biggs is extremely BEARISH in the Long Term as in /-LONGTERM: THE BEAR ed.-/ in the short term, the markets are -Only Halfway Through Stock Market Rebound-

    Traxis analyzed 14 past bear markets—ranging from gold to US stocks—and found that when markets dipped more than 40 percent, the average rally off the lows was about 72 percent, he said. /No wonder, HFT's are chasing stocks into the Close -data point 09 October 2009- ed./ Since the Dow is up only about 45 percent and the S&P about 52 percent, the market still has a lot of room to the upside, Biggs said. (But if you do the math 72% above the S&P 666 low = 1145. That is only +7% from today's close; is that "a lot of room to the upside?" Seven percent is 2 weeks of returns nowadays)

    Institutional NET Buying and Selling Volume levels

    Long Term Trending Fed. Liquidity and Foreign Liquidity Inflows

    NYSE Momentum and Strength

    Bond Market data point 09 October 2009:
    Clubbing: Treasuries got trashed on a combination of chatter on upcoming tightening, a crowd running out of flattening positions with ugly positions getting squeezed and a sprinkling of inflation concern as the global economy heals. Coming on the heels of an auction that can best be described as a "dog," there was talk the Fed was "testing" the waters on draining liquidity as a lead-up to the inevitable (hopefully) tightening. The market tanked, reportedly dragging in some mortgage players and doing serious damage to the longer end. The 10-and-30-yrs were run back off to levels last seen following the last FOMC as players fled the spreads, pulling out of the curve flattening plays that had been generally leading trade since the FOMC. The longer durations added 16 to 17 plus basis points on the day in a swift and brutal clubbing

    Stock Market >Day Trader update< data point 12 October 2009:
    ...SPX 500 traded higher early to challenge the *1080 level before correcting intraday but the bullish direction could extend the index higher on a follow through basis with potential to test the important *1100/*1119 upper barrier range in a possible double top set-up; watch out for any further weakness/break of support in the NYSE Momentum/Strength
    ...failure in that zone will leave the market vulnerable to a 20% (+) sell-off during most of Q4 targeting a retest of the July low at *869

    ...a super bearish trading start seemingly turned into a neutral to bullish session; but the fact remains, up/down volume ratio so far remains negative and decliners substantially are outpacing advancers (scenario intact with 1 more hour to go to the NYSE Close) SPX 500 dipped to *1067 intraday and in the meantime has almost recovered all of its point losses
    ...the hedgeing set-up went into 'sell' mode yesterday but runs almost neutral as today's recovery indicates that the index could surge higher on a follow through basis and the potential to test the important *1100/*1119 upper barrier range for a possible double top set-up remains still in play;
    ...failure in that zone will leave the market vulnerable to a 20% (+) sell-off during most of Q4 targeting a retest of the July low at *869

    ...as expected, SPX 500 gapped open to extend to a new 52-week High *1087 this morning on 'better-than-expected' earnings data and currently seems to consolidate between *1080/*1090 for the reat of the trading session

    .
    Ichimoku System is still long on H4 with thick Kumo support.
    Kumo is thinning on D1 chart which shows and element of slowing.

    The system gave a complete set of bullish signals in early October
    and here we can see the triggers and result.

    Hi Belgarion: the second top is not yet established and is supposed to be the May - July - August - trendline resistance *1097/*1100 psych barrier here seen in the chart (the supposed top *1097/*1100 would be an 'uneven spread double top');
    if the market breaks above trendline resistance, it will be 'Blow-Off Territory' at best, considering that current SPX 500 level is based on earnings expectations of USD 83.00 (too optimistic and not very realistic);

    NYSE Momentum and Strength (if the S&P pulls back after moving up to its upcoming *1121 resistance, then the Momentum will be in danger of breaking the support at that time.

    # NY Empire State index surged to 34.6 in Oct, above median 18.0 vs 18.88 Sep (Mixed Business: "The lack of usefulness for the Fed's Business Outlook surveys can be seen with a quick comparison between the Philly report and the NY Empire State. NY Fed shows an extremely strong pickup in the manufacturing sector as the index improved a whopping 83% to 34.57 in October while the Philly report showed business conditions declined 18%. It is impossible to discern which survey is telling the truth about the state of the manufacturing sector.)

    "Ichimoku Kinko Hyo" actually means "one glance cloud chart" or more appropriately "Instant view of the balance chart"

    Heres the daily chart for you taken at the same time. Price has moved up now to 1091.25

    Default Ichimoku Buy/Sell signals.

    It can be difficult to discern Buy/Sell signals on an Ichimoku chart because of the multiplicity of plots. This method of directly marking these signals makes it easier to identify them and to see their relative strength. Evaluating their worth becomes very much easier.

    The colour of the SP500 plot shows whether the basic Tenkan/Kijun setup is Bullish or Bearish. (This is controlled by whether the Red line on Arco's chart is above (Bullish) or below (Bearish) the Blue line).

    Arrows mark Tenkan/Kijun crossovers, the source of Ichimoku buy/sell signals.
    The colour of the arrow shows whether it is a Bullish crossover (blue) or a Bearish crossover (red).

    The SIZE of the arrow indicates the relative strength of the signals, based on whether they occur when the plot is above, below or in the Kumo Cloud. (Support/Resistance zone)

    The trend ribbon along the bottom of the chart shows us whether the Kumo (Support/Resistance Cloud) is Bullish (shaded Green on Arco's charts) or Bearish (shaded Red) This provides another means of further evaluating the strength of any given signal.



    One big advantage of such a presentation is that it readily enables the backtesting of decades of data so that the historical profitability of Ichimoku trading signals can be directly compared with those of other systems. Backtesting also enables us to address those tricky questions such as "should weak signals be ignored?" "Should neutral signals be ignored?" "Is the Chikou
    element of Ichimoku best dispensed with?" "Are 9 and 26 the optimum parameters for Tenkan/Kijun crossovers?" etc.

    A couple of quick observations from the chart :- Strong signals are not necessarily followed by large movements, as at point (1). Weak signals sometimes are followed by large movements, as at point (2). I have seen it stated that "Eliminating the Chikou Span and ignoring weak crossovers
    enhances the traditional Ichimoku method’s accuracy."
    This would mean that signals such as that at (2) would be ignored - a pity, yes?
