From the link:

 

 

Today’s recovery was enough to turn up the NYMO which is a cautious buy signal. I say “cautious” because long-term breadth is declining. Consequently, today’s turn could be a dead-cat bounce with the downward slide resuming in short order. It’s a trade worth taking with a tight, impatient stop — in other words for me it better go my way right away or I’m going away.

 

For the rest of the story and the charts:

 

THE OPEN ALWAYS MATTERS


"If you've heard this story before, don't stop me because I'd like to hear it again," Groucho Marx (on market history?).

Don't know about the Dow, but in SPY options, today's 300 puts, this cat died in a grand, grand fashion! Up 250% on the day trade.

 

The open matters especially in this most bearish of "bull markets".
