DrStool Posted May 18, 2021 Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 When I first started doing MACD charts in Metastock on an Apple 2e computer in 1982, I thought that negative divergences between oscillating indicators and the market averages were the be-all, and end-all in TA. Truth is, they're meaningless. We have another one this morning on the hourly chart of the ES fucutures. Like all the others I have seen for the past 39 years, this one could lead to a rollover, or it could lead to reacceleration to the upside. Take your pick. I will take door number two, just because the Fed and Treasury continue to pump godawful amounts of money into the market every day. That would mean we're headed for a mini breakout to 4185. And if they clear that, a trip to revisit the highs of last week. If you are a new visitor, please register and join in!

DrStool Posted May 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 Bulls won yesterday's screen game by 27 to 8. One of the short term sell signals was an inverse ETF, so that went into the bulls column. This compares with Friday's 153 to 8 bull surge, which suggests a new bull swing phase. The 5 day total is 241 buys to 97 sells, a spread of +144. That's up from +99 yesterday. I screen all stocks and ETFs from the NYSE and NASD, excluding those with less than an average of 1 million shares per day traded, and selling for less than $6 per share. The table below shows swing trade buy signals and sell signals from yesterday's action. The numbered columns represent the time frame of the support or resistance trend around which the signals were generated. Here is today's output. The number 1 indicates that the condition is true. 0 is false. The numbers on the right half of the chart represent the time frames in days of the support or resistance areas where the signal was triggered.

PullMyFinger Posted May 18, 2021 Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 I'm conditioned (and resigned) to think that pattern resolutions wind up in a northward trajectory even despite the Elliott Wave software thinking that W4 is over and W5 will resolve downward in the chart above. That red PTI number at 15 gives me pause. Generally, Wave 5's fail to materialize, or result in at best a double bottom when that PTI number is less than 35. As a brilliant anal cyst frequently reminds, all chart patterns are . . . Sitting on my hands and bored as heck so far this week. Just can't get a read or a feel for this thing. Wish I was better at trading 2 or 4 minute charts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrStool Posted May 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 I watch 3 min bars on the SPY and they're really getting ground into dust. But overall, it looks like the next move is more likely to be up than down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
