Every day in the market is important, even dull & low-range days are important in the analysis of the overall sentiment and averages etc. 

 

Today is an even more important day, especially for the bears. If they can't press home the advantage then the decline is over, for now and the bulls will become energize and take it up up up....

 

I am still not seeing significant capitulation from the bulls and dip buying is still quite popular, it seems. Look at the last 3 daily candles, no close at the bottom.....that's not enough capitulation to suggest there will be a concerted decline. 

 

In other words, there is still not a lot of blood in the streets, this is still a pullback, and unless the bears can take down to close below SPX 2860 on a daily basis.

Crowded VIX shorting is probably the best reason to expect a short sharp decline.

 

VIX inversion

 

Otherwise, it could be a slow decline interrupted by November's seasonality and share buybacks.   Some people are comparing this fall to last year while expecting a rally.   A big difference is the government wasn't issuing debt last year because of the debt ceiling.

Very good read on the currency hedging's effects on US interest rates

Depending on how the day ends, could be a CIT back to the long side... watching.

It looks that the bounce is delayed, but a good bounce should come within the next two days.  But bulls could mount an attack in the last hour today as an inverted H&S developing on intra day SPX chart ....................

EEM still trading like death.  Bottom could drop out any time.

 

AMAT still in crash mode, the "Poster Child" for the V-shaped recovery touted by all the bullish analysts.
