Watching volume on this "rally" which is looking weak. I will assess NDX when it hits 2000-2020 (if it does, lol) area for entry:

Actually volume isn't that horrible. If you look at up volume only, this is higher then average upside volume during this whole rally off the lows, not considering the Aug 9. But the best part about today is high put/call. This thing is constantly being shorted as it keeps going up. Gotta love all this mistrust.

My patience ran out today! My intent was to wait for the sept 18th rally expectations. But as of closing prices today, I liquidated all my mutual funds in my tax deferred account. Now 100% flat and happy. The way I am looking at it, the risk in potential advance is outweighed by the credit bubble deflation still continuing full force. So the 4.5% in MMF sounds easier on nerves.

My thought currently is the channel contains the price and we head lower, look at the weekly volume on the last push up...very poor:

JG, the low was a few days ago, looks like a day or three to the upside and then down it goes again...nervous mkt right now, here's Roger's methodology:

Chili
Perhaps I can get out by this coming Friday with either a small gain or small loss. Next week is options expiration week and, as I understand it, that week is usually a down week.
Thanks for posting those beautiful charts.
My best to you
Peace
