As long as the Weekly CCI remains below -100, no bottom can be confirmed and the market remains vulnerable to the downside. As of today's close SPX weekly CCI remains at -162. We are still in the black hole, despite all the Global synchronized intervention (copyrighted by me :D ).

We did not see any capitulation today, nor was there any climactic characteristics to the move. But there was fear, plenty of it. VIX made a new high, while the SPX refused to break below Aug 6 lows. That was a pretty strong divergence which hinted of a rally. Once the hourly turned, i was aboard the countertrend rally. How far the rally carries us, i have no clue. We could go and retest the ES 1510 highs or crap out before that. I will short the next hourly continuation sell, whenever that comes.

As always, thanks for the heads up. I assume you did not have to use the portable device today. No reply necessary to the last statement. :lol:

People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.

You won't belive this but they actually have a professional condom type device that is attached to an IVY type bag for urine and it is strapped to ones leg by the ankles. I think I saw it in the SFO magazine. And it is only about $30 bucks. :P

I have to agree here. I'm positioned mostly short. Holding individual stocks and a very large short in
ES.

In Oct. 2005 spx went up after 14 - cci was below 100, this time it diverged a little too, a/d diverging and a nice doji on the daily vix, there should be stong rally now...monday morning could see some testing though.
