Do the manipulators have any more tricks up their sleeves? Who knows? Hard to imagine they don't. The world is crumbling down around us. The "good" news is beginning to be ignored. China is backing out, more bigger banks are failing, the treasury is out of money, the FDIC is bankrupt, the Fed is monetizing debt, unemployment is maintaining a steady 500k clip, 40% of the homes in America are under water, the consumer is dead, GS can front run the world and no one cares, the national debt is insane, even CNBS's constant parade of bullshit is not working any more (today was priceless - they had no clue what to do all day - fuck them) and we have the worst administration running the show in history.
Am I being stubborn? Yup, my worst trait. Like a spoiled child I want my 1050 to 1121 target in October. Should I be happy that I got within 11 points and one month of the lower target range? FNA Absofreakinglutely. That is better than most if I am not mistaken and I ain't paid to do this shit. Should I be happy that I stared all my permabear buddies down and stuck to my guns all the way up? Yup. I did good or you would not be reading this mindless masturbation I am having with myself right now. I am churning inside. I'll hate missing "the call", but at least I will be playing it right.
If the top is in. Let's rock this party. FAZ me to the gills. WARNING - If the top is in, you are now on the ride to hell in a hand basket. You know they say to be careful what you ask for? Here it comes. There is no telling the misery and total destruction this could bring. Anarchy in the streets, soup lines, wars - this is gonna suck and suck for a long time. I anticipate at least TWO market closures on the way down. When they start running for the gates, they will all run at once. More on all this later.
Since we're topping I'll throw this in. I enjoyed the ride up, kind of, well, not really. Thanks for taking it with me. I appreciate all my readers very much. The ride down should be really interesting (for lack of a better word). If you thought I ranted during the market going up, wait till this country is getting ripped apart. I'll really be pissed.
On to the best chart I have done yet (and does a nice job of marking the top I refuse to call)-
I love what I have done with this chart. My daily indicator chart on steroids. Pay attention to the ADX. The large vertical red lines are all keyed by ADX sell line bottoming out.
Look at the coincidences with the other indicators (and the SPXA50 just below). PPO, RSI, MACD, there are NO FALSE TOPS HERE. Only 4 on the chart to choose from and they all worked. The only questionable top was in April when this run should have ended, thus furthering my argument that all gains since April have been bullshit manipulation and are not real (thus will be evaporated).
Right now SPX is in a channel down that I will post in the am or you can see here.
Chart best viewed HERE.
GL Trading.
