I'm a believer DTrader that you are correct about 2nd QTR, BIG Volatility ahead, though I believe it won't happen until AFTER new all-time highs are reached.  We have another 7-8% upside followed by a 15% downside.  According to Armstrong https://www.armstron...-panic-of-2019/  a currency panic will be the catalyst.  This makes sense to me.  The Cycles Roadmap is steady to up into the month of May.  

I'm still Long and will remain thru April.  I will soon be exiting my EM equities as well as taking gains on select equities and gradually moving into CD's and T-Bills.

I trade much shorter time frames, but the trades are free so I can adjust quickly.. Back on a buy signal until it's not....

 

Good trading....

 

Long VXF until the next signal and then back to cash....

 

I bought some VXXB @ $29.31 for a VST trade....

I  can't rule out this buy will fail..... Whipsaw.....

 

Today Could Get Noisy

 

After a week of going nowhere, the stock market is set to make a big move today.

The S&P 500 started the week at about 2800. It closed yesterday at 2815. So… yawn. 

 

Most traders would have been better off napping through the week rather than waiting for something to happen in the stock market. Now, though, all of that inactivity has stored up a lot of energy and has created a technical picture that could lead to an explosive move today.

 

Look at this 15-minute chart of the S&P 500…

 So the economy outlook is improving..  New Home Sales is up, and is improving, so it is no longer negative...   Current GDP Growth has improved from .9 to 1.6 over the last couple months, and earnings continue to improve although slowly...    I do see many here are getting beared up..  I don't see it, even though contrary sentiment does show the overall investor investing bearishly.

" I do see many here are getting beared up."  Is this site the smart money or the dumb money?  The smart money is not so excited based on the current data..

 

Maybe here, but not by the data I'm using and tracking overall for retail traders.  The current sentiment level for the dumb money remains very high... (Bullish) Not so for the smart money. I get my data from Sentiment Trader.

 

None of it matters to me since I trade signals....even though I track the data. Waiting to see how we close today....  My VXF data is back long.... (Breakout or Fakeout...we shall see how it plays out.)  Maybe a whipsaw, but I take the signals....

The move looks weak, but I trade the signals...VST trading from the long side using VXF. The trades are free so I might sell before the close and wait to see how it plays out Monday. Waiting....and very bored....  The DM is still at 74 and they be loving stocks....  I DO NOT guess on what will happen next -  I'm just waiting for the next signal, and at some point the next trend that "COULD" be a nice move....  Please pass the popcorn Brother!
