*Please make sure you understand how to use the table above. The main purpose of this report is to provide information so contradictory signals are always presented.
SEASONALITY: NO UPDATE
CYCLE ANALYSIS: THE NEXT IMPORTANT DATE IS 04/20
The market could rebound to 04/20 (+-) then pullback to 05/06 (+-)? See 04/16 Market Recap for more details.
INTERMEDIATE-TERM: EXPECT ROLLER COASTER AHEAD
Maintain the forecast for Roller Coaster ahead for 3 reasons:
- According to the II Survey, too many people expected a correction, so the stock market should rise to a new high first before actually pulling back (See 03/19 Market Recap for more details). Since we’ve seen the new high so now it’s the pullback’s turn.
- Statistically when the market has been up, especially at a 52 week high, entering the earnings season, the average performance during earnings season is usually not good (See 04/09 Market Recap for more details).
- 6.1.0 Extreme CPCE Readings Watch, take a look at how the market behave when CPCE was extremely low. I expect no difference this time (choppy ahead like past) especially when there’re simply so many bearish extremes accumulated in the table above.
SHORT-TERM: COULD BE SOME WEAKNESS AHEAD
今天有两个不太牛牛friendly的信号,加上After Bell Quick Summary里提到的今天是All Up Day,因此可能短期会有pullback。
0.2.2 Extreme Put Call Ratio Watch,CPCI有点高了,在大盘大涨的今天大户整那么多index put是比较可疑的。
6.2.3 VIX:VXV Trading Signals,这个有点低了。VIX to VXV ratio最近好像工作的不错。
今天还有个非常有意思的现象是Nasdaq Intraday Cumulative TICK又涨到天上去了,very very bullish,可能有点太bullish了,上次,我提到这个有趣的现象是在04/14 Market Recap里。Coincidence? Well, we’ll see.
TICKQ可以解释为啥Nasdaq Intraday Cumulative TICK涨到天上去了,因为今天一天都没有小于零的TICK as everybody rushed to buy。
顺便看看多少人买AAPL的CALL (from sentimentrader morning report) 。Well, judging by AAPL AH actions, everybody will be rich tomorrow morning at open. Making money could be that easy, no wonder I had a reader asking me this morning, since all the bearish signals in the table above didn’t work why bother mentioning them! Well, that’s certainly was a good question.
STOCK SCREENER: For fun only, I may not actually trade the screeners. Since SPY ST Model is in BUY mode, only LONG candidates are listed. For back test details as well as how to confirm the entry and set stop loss please read HERE. Please make sure you understand the basic risk management HERE.
Looks like it’s too late to long stocks now as the market is way too overbought. Waiting for a better chance.
