Seems like they've mounted a pretty good rally, a bit too soon, without enough pessimism. I'm watching for a spot to get short. Mark

mark,

would it be possible to see what you are looking at at this point in time that leads to believe that there is not enough bearishness?

thnx

post a 5 day futures chart with volume and I can give you my take... I see us going much higher... my target is 2585.73 on Nasdaq. So far it's a light volume day, lighter than yesterday's 30 min. open. I'm waiting for that number to be tested to short this thing...

meaning... a volume divergence is setting up.. whichever way we go is the wrong way. An inequitable situation sets up on light volume, allowing operators to move price like a hockey puck. To me, testing the lows from yesterday now only sets up a smoking, short covering rally trapping all the "smart" guys playing the fundamentals to be short.... 2585.73 high was tested to the penny on higher volume, the candle of reference low was not tested, that says we're going back up to test it again.

Rydex has the amateurs buying bull funds. Equity P/C sanguine. II still plenty of Bulls as with TheStreet.com.

Nothing says we can't go higher, per se, but the odds of it sticking are slim. The decline is not over.

Semi, I'll post some futures stuff when I get some time.

*nod* thanks Mark. Is the rydex information available to the average joe @ no cost? What you are describing sounds like COT data, but on a daily basis it seems?

I agree there seems to be unfinished business at lower levels as none of my indicators have indicated that a bottom was formed on neither a 60-min or daily basis. Today's rally therefore to me seems just like last Friday and should fizzle out by EOD or tomorrow morning. OPEX does not make things simple though.

Seems like they've mounted a pretty good rally, a bit too soon, without enough pessimism.
