I see the bears come out of the woodwork on twitter, and that can only mean one thing! Looks like the bear trap has been set, and just ahead of October Options expiration, and then comes short covering season, heading into the Holidays.
Yesterday, we saw the NASDAQ wash out to a slightly lower low, while most other charts remained intact. Could mean that the powers that be, are only interested in shaking out speculative tech traders, because they want those stocks for themselves. Ever since pro traders came back from summer vacation, they've done nothing but trash talk the market, but watch for them to change their tune, now that they've accomplished what they wanted.
I was having some technical difficulties yesterday, and had to cut my update short, and attach an update to the previous update - which you can usually find pinned to my twitter page. Always look for important updates in that area.
Can't seem to upload a chart to the blog. Looks like no update today, but the market shouldn't be throwing any surprised either. 1 think I can tell you, is the market will not be off to the races until the $VIX is hammered back below 20.

So yesterday's pullback wasn't unexpected, but it wasn't until after lunch that I realized the Wilshire 5000 target hadn't hit.
$WLSH - Looks like a normal pullback, and a back-test of last weeks low. Bullish obviously
This chart used to be in the public charts area, and was used to call the most recent broader market top. Guess I blogged it, in Sept, but don't remember...
The target was nearly taken out going into the close, but could retest again.
See, I no longer trust the heavily manipulated, $SPX, and the heavily traded $SPY.
On to bigger and better things, than the broader market.
Natural Gas - I continue to sell nat gas because I figure the market can't get past the so called energy crisis overseas, until natural gas prices fall back in line.
This morning I'm seeing a good downside target - and an obvious one - at the 50 day moving average.
I'm also seeing heavy buying on the pullback in KOLD.
$KOLD (3X Nat Gas Bear) - nobody should trade this unless they can handle a 30% daily loss. It's just that volatile!
If you're uncomfortable with trading Nat Gas, then Emerging markets should rally, on lower energy. I believe there's even a leverage Europe bull, but I'm almost out of time....
$EDC - trades into a bullish inverted triangle
Yesterday's bounce in gold was about the most exciting thing to happen all day, but we didn't see a breakout. Can't confirm a reversal there, yet....
You can find several miner charts in the public charts area, including another view of the $GDMm which I added after yesterday's rally stalled out.
Maybe once the $USD tests the 200 week moving average, we'll see gold gain some traction.
That's all for now.
Good Luck, and see you next week, AA
