Could this be just a test of support from July's high? A kiss-back on the macd?

My read on my own little broader market indicator is that todays move did not signal a change in the characteristic of the market. Meaning, even if it cycles down a few days, the uptrend may well still be in control. I was stopped out of the QQQQ with a nice gain and MMR with 4% but still have a single position running in SPY. But another 50 some cent drop and that one will stop out as well.
In the end we retain from our studies only that which we practically apply.

Airedale88 as I am sure you must know has been calling for a low this week based on his Hurst Cycle's studies, so in theory friday should see the market turn back up. I think its going up into early Nov.

As long as today doesn't change my view of the complacency, I'm planning to look this weekend through all the systems I built for various industries and see if any are near or have issued a buy. I'd love to see a few day pull back that gives a logical entry point for some more swing trades.
