Market Bias for Issue #167

Our current Market Bias with Timer Digest is LONG SPX as of Friday November 11 Close 2164.45
Our previous Market Bias was FLAT SPX as of Tuesday November 7 Close 2139.53


This is our Trade for this week = LONG SPX or SPY CALL Spreads using HALF of YOUR Average Bet size

SPX Secondary Profit Target = 2210
SPX Primary Profit Target = 2185
SPX Money Management Stop = 2155

BOTTOM LINE: We got the very high volatility intra-week that my XO, @Capt_Tiko, was so concerned about last Sunday (on #TunaPower? most likely LOL). As volatility reverts back to the mean, daily range will collapse, barring any unprecedented news. We may see a test of 50-bar MA at 2145-2150 before we resume the move up. Once that retest failure is complete, we will add to size.

Note: Once the Primary Profit Target has been reached, traders should close 50% to 75% of their position in order to lock in the profits. The remaining balance can be carried over with a BreakEven STOP in order to make the trade a zero-risk trade with the final position running to reach the Secondary Profit Target. Once either Secondary Profit or Money Management Target is hit, our Option/ETF trade for that week is over. Go to Cash and wait for the next PMT Issue.

Market Timing Charts, Analysis & Commentary for Issue #167


Timer Charts of S&P-500 Cash Index (SPX) + NASDAQ-100 Cash Index (NDX)

Most recent S&P-500 Cash Index (SPX): 2164.45 up +79.27 (up +3.8%) for the week ending on Friday, November 11th, 2016, which closed just about its +1.5 sigma and and just above 50-day MovAvg.

SPX ALL TIME INTRADAY HIGH = 2193.81 (reached on Monday, August 15, 2016)
SPX ALL TIME CLOSING HIGH = 2190.15 (reached on Monday, August 15, 2016)

Current DAILY +2 Sigma SPX = 2178 with WEEKLY +2 Sigma = 2207
Current DAILY 0 Sigma (20 day MA) SPX = 2133 with WEEKLY 0 Sigma = 2152
Current DAILY -2 Sigma SPX = 2088 with WEEKLY -2 Sigma = 2098

NYSE McClellan Oscillator = +16 (-150 is start of the O/S area; around -275 to -300 area or lower, we go into the “launch-pad” mode, over +150, we are in O/B area)
NYSE Breadth Thrust = 47.9 (40 is considered as oversold and 65 as overbought)

Well, majority of elite liberals got it wrong, except for Nate Silver. Our very own @Capt_Tiko had it right from the look on his face during the presidential debate. He isn't even an unemployed white. Go figure..


Canaries [in the Coal Mine] Chart for DJ TRAN & RUT Indices

200-Day MA DJ TRAN = 7778 or 10.3% below DJ TRAN (max observed in last 5 yrs = 20.2%, min = -20.3%)
200-Day MA RUT = 1155 or 10.9% below RUT (max observed in last 5 yrs = 21.3%, min = -22.6%)

DJ Transports (proxy for economic conditions 6 to 9 months hence) had a great week as the index gained 6%. The indices were very well receptive about the election results. Russell 2000 small caps (proxy for Risk ON/OFF) rallied even stronger and went up ten percent. RISK is ON.


DeTrenders Charts for SPX, NDX, TRAN & RUT Indices

50-Day MA SPX = 2145 or 0.9 below SPX closed on Friday (max observed in last 5 yrs = +8.6%, min = -9.3%)
200-Day MA SPX = 2089 or 3.6% below SPX (max observed in last 5 yrs = 15.2%, min = -14%)

Currently, only 1 of our 8 De Trenders are negative. The De Trenders for DJ TRAN & RUT will continue to be harbingers of future price behavior in broad indices.


HA_SP1_Momo Chart

WEEKLY Timing Model = on a SELL Signal since Friday 11/11/16 CLOSE at 2164
DAILY Timing Model = on a BUY Signal since Thursday 11/10/16 CLOSE at 2167
Max SPX 52wk-highs reading last week = 82 (over 120-140, the local maxima is in)
Max SPX 52wk-Lows reading last week = 15 (over 40-60, the local minima is in)
HA_SP1 = above its +1 sigma channels
HA_Momo = +4.28 (reversals most likely occur above +10 or below -10)


Vol of the Vols Chart

VIX is currently testing its -1 sigma level at 14.17 (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).

The current shock wave appears to be almost over. However, this time around, VIX failed to recapture +4 sigma before collapsing.


5-day TRIN & TRINQ Charts

NYSE 5-day TRIN is on a SELL but its NASDAQ brethern is still in NEUTRAL zone.


Components of SPX above their respective 200day MA Chart

This scoring indicator made a double bottom at 53% and then raced up to 62%. We are not out of the woods yet and we need to follow this chart daily this week as confirmation for this post-election mini-rally.


SPX SKEW (Tail Risk) Chart

Last week SPX SKEW (Tail Risk) tested its +4 sigma level and then sank to 121 this week, which also coincides EXACTLY with its +1 sigma level (normal = 120-125, range 100-150). All is getting quieter on the Eastern Front (WASH-BOS Elite Corridor). @Capt_Tiko: Smart Money [and the DEMs] finally figured out the game is over (once HRC conceded).


3-month VIX Futures Spread(VX) Chart

Our 3-month VIX Futures Spread (LONG DEC16 & SHORT MAR17) closed at -2.26 on Friday. What a week this spread had. Specially late Tuesday night and into early hours of Wednesday as the HRC conceded. It acted as my compass for reversing my index futures positions. Currently it is a tad NEUTRAL.


HA_SP2 Chart

HA_SP2 = 74.7 (Buy signal <= 25, Sell Signal >= 75)

This indicator is OverBought now. Tiko was dead right last week. #TunaPower. Keep in mind, it can stay overbought just like it did in late July.


SPX 2000 Analog for SPX 2016

Last week we stated: The $64K question is not a matter of IF, but WHEN, the other shoe will drop.
Going into the Election Week the bigger question is: How many shoes are out there? As in the past Maury is salivating at the thought of much lower prices for entry, even hoping to find some bargains BELOW COST. LOL.


US Treasury T-Notes & T-Bonds Yields Chart

The YTMs on Treasury Complex shot up once the dust settled. The expected uptick in Asset Allocation trade is here!!

On a different front, we are introducing our much awaited T-Notes & T-Bonds OTF Streamer.

Notice of Change of Market Bias with Timer Digest


Dear Jim,

With NY Times’ mea culpa (the last bastion of elite liberals) now public, we are now ready to get LONG SPX.

Barring any exogenous news, this signal should be good for 3 to 4 weeks (right before Dec FED Meeting).
New SPX Target = 2200+

Cheers……

Fari Hamzei
