Blogger blowing up my posts again this morning. This has become a more than recent occurrence over the past two weeks where I type, it does not auto save and then locks up and goes away. I lost the complete first section of my post (again) this morning, and I'm not going to rewrite it.

China is under control! All is well! Y'all come back and throw all your money in as fast as you can! Who cares if China is gonna liquidate treasuries. That means nothing in the long or short term. 

I'm not quite sure what's going on data wise with the Fed and all. Who knows what picture they want to paint to lead you down whatever wrong path they decide to take this time. You can see ZH and try and figure out how or why they are insisting on painting a picture where a rate hike will prolly become mandatory despite reality.

So, are we supposed to have all eyes on China (Remember distraction is their best trick)? You know, the nation that was taking over the world, was gonna be the next best thing since sliced bread and lead us all to great prosperity. Yeah, that China! But wait, what about the big red communist nation we've all come to know and love? Still thriving! China Loses All Control: Arrests Journalist, Financial Executive Over Market Crash adds to the devaluation and their treasury dumping. If this is our global economic savior I think we're all in a bit of trouble. 

And of course the question we here at STB have been asking for a couple of years at least - What If The "Crash" Is As Rigged As Everything Else? I'll say this, in this Keynesian centrally planned nightmare, if the crash is not engineered then we're really in deep doo doo. 

Third day of turmoil and third different scenario simply adding to the confusion this morning may be an anomaly like yesterday. Once volume catches up they tend to lose control.

Fed Speak is everything over the next few days and weeks. Be ready to react.  Rate hikes and QE4 - I can only assume that with the Fed's recent lack of clarity or direction that confusion will still reign, and that's not a good situation for the markets.



On to the lie -

SPX Daily - Not much of a DCB on this chart. The 5m there is one, but if you are looking for something technical that says this is all over ya better find it somewhere else (Not that technicals matter anyway in this rigged thing they still call a market). I do see clear support area, but that may not matter if the sellers remain in semi-panic mode.

Forever we've all had our special triggers that we've used to time the markets, maybe now it's as simple as focusing on one thing (other than Fed speak) - The Fun-Durr-Mental Reason Stocks Are Up This Morning (In 1 Chart). At this point I'm not positive there is any global coordination among exchanges or markets. It may be a save yourself first and worry about the women and children later situation. 

China sets the standard for state controlled everything, and if that experiment is collapsing, you better be taking notes for what is more than likely going to happen here. As I mentioned yesterday - cyber war, currency war, market war - not many options left but physical war coming next. I suggest you read The REAL Reason China’s Economy Is Crashing for some interesting insight. Think debt and Rome.

Bottom line is the sheeple are starting to wake up, and that's not good for corrupt governments and banks around the globe. 7.2 billion people may be a bit much to contain when they discover the elite have been taking them out back and financially raping them for close to a century now.


On to the lie - 

No need to freak out quite yet. That comes after they announce QE4. I'm gonna remain calm as possible till Jackson Hole. Speculation on Fed actions till then should be rampant. Most here know my stance on rate hike  - they can't and never will cause they can't afford it. Risk off is the worst thing that could happen now and they can't afford the debt if they do raise rates. The dance between Fed speak, China and the myriad of other global disruptions over the next week should be very volatile. It's gonna be sunny one minute and raining the next. All you can do is ride the storm out. As I've discussed, the worst thing the Fed has done recently is not provide clear direction, global planning without clear direction and leadership is not a good thing. 

Is It Time to Get into Crash Positions?

As for price - if they can't retake the 200dma they will be literally hanging on for dear life and in crash prevention mode. 

SPX Daily - Well, at least someone around here had been discussing the possibility of low 18 handles this week and last. I'm gonna try and lean on the large HnS developing. A pop here to near 2162 and then collapse late September would be an amazing setup. This is a horrible idea, cause these things rarely play out, but if you are looking for a technical fall that would be the best road map to develop. On the other hand, technically this thing has already shit the bed and puked up a lung. Looking up here would only be a thing that someone completely conditioned and high on hopium would do. Tough spot? You bet! What happened yesterday was like a controlled lab experiment going bad. Someone dropped a vial of lethal bacteria and they are scrambling in clean up mode right now. 

Below 1820 there is 1750, but I'm not willing to go there quite yet. Nor am I willing to bite on Armageddon or the Second Comming (that's in September LOL). Things could very rightfully so get very out of control here. You've heard me discuss targets as low as the prior two tops around 1575 recently. Bottom line is I've been conditioned by the central planners, I've witnessed their power, I believe in their attempt to control, and I don't think they've completely let go of the wheel or driven off the tracks quite yet. QE4 hangs out there as does news for Jackson Hole. I'm gonna do my best now to remain calm and not panic. I have a feeling there will be plenty of that to go around without me needing to incite any more (that time will come).

Black Monday. Why wait for the September collapse? Shit's bad, really bad, but we here at STB all knew this day would come and could feel it building over the past year. The hardest thing to fathom is that they let this happen. Apparently it took the Squid less than a week to go from not ready to I'm sure a prime position to capitalize on this turn. 

Shit's falling apart everywhere. We here at STB living in reality know that, but the sheeple have been distracted, lied to, shammed, but now the veil has been lifted. The lipstick is off the pig.

Two questions - can or will this selloff gain momentum and how long till they announce QE4? Can a "Bullard" moment stop this or will this simply have to play out? Will a nervous public decide to bail? Oh the margin calls today, the carnage!

I was surprised to hear the MSM over the weekend discussing Friday's drop. More than discussing it, it lead the news. They've actually contributed to the panic. Why? Of course their meme had the caveat to "stay the course", LOL. 

For now I think we have to watch this play out till they can stabilize price. Flash crashes and market closures are very real possibilities. 


On to the lie - (oh how appropriate this sections title has been for years) - 

So much for short term charts. Was I the only one discussing 18 handles the last few weeks? When you run it up they way they have you leave massive support less areas. This leads to an escalator up and elevator shaft down. Where is support? 1900? 1820? 1725? Lower?

Yesterday was bad. How bad? Well ..... 

  • The S&P is now negative for the year
  • Consumer discretionary sector had its worst day since June 1, 2012
  • All sectors finished the day negative, and only utilities were positive for the week
  • The S&P once again traded below its 200-day moving average level of 2,078.2 on an intraday basis (today is the first time the S&P closed below its 200-day since July 9)
  • The Nasdaq is trading below its 50-day level of 5,075.21 and closed below its 200-day for the first time since Oct. 17
  • Cumulative volume on Thursday was 7.9 billion shares, the most volume since Aug. 12, when 8.28 billion shares were traded
When volume overwhelms the system, "they" lose. FOMC minutes brought confusion at a time when clarity or a concise plan was needed. Am I the only one here at STB that's surprised by the 'delay' in the rate hike? Good = Bad is starting to bite them in the ass. Their data lies or manipulation have been more like lipstick on the pig. 

They must maintain or perpetuate the lie. As some of us learned when we were young, when you lie you must continue to lie till the end, and you can not change your story. Where they have trapped themselves by delaying the impossible rate hike, they now need moar QE. Thus, they are about to have to change their story. We all knew this would come. It was inevitable. They're finally out of excuses and Mr. Market does not like that.

On to the lie - 

200dma is resistance now then 62 area. I'd really expect the PPT to get involved soon. Labor day ramp is in serious jeopardy. 

SPX Daily - Well, we finally have real (although small) positive divergences on the daily chart and an underthrow/oversold technical situation. It's been a while (like a year) since STB called the rising wedge to form, its breakdown and now failure. Now all that's left is to avoid the September disaster and get QE4 out of the way. Of course I'm thinking world war and Obummer dictatorship now more than ever over the next year. They have to have something huge to cover up the lies that are being exposed. 

I mentioned in comments yesterday of a possible multiple HnS scenario leading as far south at 1830. That would take this move to 1990 to complete the head. A move back to 64 for the RS and then failure again. Not sure what the Fed wants, and these scenarios rarely play out (esp in rigged markets). Just something to look at.



SPX 30m - There is the potential of that lower broken rising wedge target like (pink).

Typical last ditch effort - Big Stocks Are Last Hope for a Decaying Market.

Not much to say this morning about the surprise collapse last night following what the Fed wanted us all to see as a doveish FOMC report. I'm positive the Squid is not ready for any real collapse, so I'm not stressing it. QE4 or 5 or whatever is still out there. Maybe there is some contention among the money masters? Some want QE now and others are still on board following the Fed's direct order. Things are not as cozy at the top as they once were. A while back I suspected this would be seen at or near the top. September is just days away now.
 

On to the lie - 

SPX 30m - A whole lotta shit going on. Hard to get any sort of technical handle. I've remained looking south cause of the two rising wedge breakdowns I've discussed over the past few weeks, and due to the fed's inability to lift out of this consolidation phase. I guess I got lucky more than anything relying/believing on something technical. That's bit you in the ass more than not over the past 5 years. 


SPX Daily- Consolidation. See that black triangle? Something's gotta happen soon. Price has left the station and is way away from that blue channel and the STB Diagonal of Death that supported the Fed's run for the past 5 years. It's broken down and backtested and now has the awful triangle just above the 200dma that appears is about to break (like this morning).

 As I've always contended, we shoulda just taken our medicine in 2008, and we'd more than likely be in a real recovery today (well, that sounds good, our criminal government would still have screwed up even the best case scenario). 


SPX Daily - I still like down, but I still think consolidation will continue as long as they can maintain these levels. Daily ma's are key. Watching that 50 slowly moving in on the 200 for the death cross is almost painful.

If I had to guess, I'd say markets will be held hostage to the FOMC minutes release Wednesday. Since the Fed controls all and everything else is meaningless contrived data, I assume the hoopla will all surround the minutes. China will be the next great distraction. The US economic situation will follow. Bottom line is without any surprises the market is set up for more consolidation as price clings onto support above the vast support less void crated buy the Bullard ramp (and QE1 - 4eva). I find the QE4 ramblings (for now) interesting. It is the last hope. It will come. When? Your guess is as good as mine, but it will come as risk on status slips from their centrally planned farce.

DOW death cross and the SPX opening under the 200dma, how glorious! Now, when do we get the STB "event"?

SPX Daily - Death cross at this support? Monday they had a dramatic stick save at the open to protect cracking support. Then came China devaluation and the new currency war (to add to the cyber war), markets reversed back to support and now we have the inevitable. What can the PPT do? How far will they allow it to fall? Will they let it fall?


The last time we got a DOW death cross was in 2012. As you can see from this chart, that death cross did not last long (Thanks QE4eva!) and every time it has come close since a miraculous stick save has occurred. Where this time? I'd say DOW 13,750 would be the absolute must point, but 16,000 is a more likely spot.

Speaking of QE, The Fed Is Out Of Options, "QE Is All It Can Do Here" Art Cashin Predicts, so, do we at STB laugh now or later?

Simple, do the math and trust that the system is corrupt and completely manipulated. When remains our only question?I've reserved the final top call for this final QE run.

We will be here before you know it - 'concentration rehab camp'(except for the fixing sexuality part). 

And I'm not positive about this, but if a white dude said what Farrakhan said he'd be locked up faster than stink on shit.

Morning Charts 08/04/2015 SPX /es

this is the morning post. Sorry, I have to take my dog Spencer to the vet this morning, so I will more than likely not be in by the open. I'll continue to lean south having triple support at 2069 as the ultimate near term floor.


Have a good day.

Morning Charts 08/03/2015 SPX /es

Often discussed here at STB in the comments section - Bullish/Bearish indicators - what does sentiment mean today? Well, as usual I poo poo most anything that has any sort of number derived from government or market sources (which is about every number). I'm not sure anything can be believed today (and most of you agree with that). 

So, what do we do? Well, in olden days we'd all follow the road signs and have a high degree of probability in being correct. Today IS different in the bad = good or good = bad world they have manufactured. You tell me, what does a market signal that says buy mean in a way overbought, controlled, volume less, lack of liquidity driven market that functions more on reactions to news than fundamentals? 

LOL! Citadel barred from trading in China? If that happened here we might as well close the doors and all go home.
On to the lie -

Freedom watch - 

I think we were there first, but ... Have you noticed that there is a tremendous amount of Internet buzz about the month of September 2015?
