Canaries [in the Coal Mine] Chart for DJ TRAN & RUT Indices
200-Day MA DJ TRAN = 7676 or 4% below DJ TRAN (max observed in last 5 yrs = 20.2%, min = -20.3%)
200-Day MA RUT = 1115 or 8% below RUT (max observed in last 5 yrs = 21.3%, min = -22.6%)
DJ Transports (proxy for economic conditions 6 to 9 months hence) chart pattern is healthy again. It closed at very near +2 sigma on Friday.
Russell 2000 Small Caps (proxy for RISK ON/OFF) rallied first two days of the week and then went flat. RISK-ON is back.
A quick note from @Capt_Tiko: What is key to watch here is their CI Diffs.

Again, this week ALL of our Eight DeTrenders are POSITIVE. DeTrenders for TRAN & RUT continue to get our attention.
HA_SP1_Momo Chart
WEEKLY Timing Model = on a BUY Signal since Friday 4/15/16 CLOSE
DAILY Timing Model = on a BUY Signal since Tuesday 7/5/16 CLOSE
Max SPX 52wk-highs reading last week = 78 (over 120-140, the local maxima is in)
Max SPX 52wk-Lows reading last week = 1 (over 40-60, the local minima is in)
HA_SP1 = at its +1.5 sigma channels
HA_Momo = +5.7 (reversals most likely occur above +10 or below -10)
Vol of the Vols Chart
VIX = 12.85 is now at its -1 sigma (remember it’s the VIX’s vol pattern (its sigma channels) that matters, and not the level of VIX itself (this is per Dr. Robert Whaley, a great mentor and the inventor of original VIX, now called VXO). VIX usually peaks around a test of its +4 sigma).
VIX had a relatively quiet week. For OVX (vol index for crude), that was a different story.
5-day TRIN & TRINQ Charts
BOTH charts continue to give SELL SIGNALs here........
Components of SPX above their respective 200day MA Chart
This scoring indicator is back up to 77% now. A close above here and all bearish divergences will be reset.
SPX SKEW (Tail Risk) Chart
SPX SKEW (Tail Risk) = rose to 130 after sinking to 123 (its -1 sigma on July 6th right before June NFP) (normal = 120-125, range 100-150)
All Quiet on the Mid-Western Front? Smart Money thinks so.
3-month VIX Futures Spread(VX) Chart
Our 3-month VIX Futures Spread (LONG JUL16 & SHORT OCT16) closed at -4.9 on Friday. As you can tell, this indicator says we are extremely overbought.
HA_SP2 Chart

This indicator also says we are extremely Overbought territory.
SPX 2000 Analog for SPX 2016

We may just trash this analog. We never liked a market that did not listen....LOL.
