Bear Cave 2 (Bull Allowed)

SPY/RSX daily: Well, if you bought the dip during the bloodbath yesterday you are doing well today.

I took a small position of RSX, and it's turning out to be the biggest winner so far....

02/24/2022 08:16:14 Bought 100 RSX @ 14.3

We shall see how this daily cycle low plays out. Getting back above the 10 dma might not be so easy right now. Watching!

Daily Cycle Low

Stocks formed a bullish reversal on Thursday.

Thursday was only day 22 for the daily equity cycle, placing stocks about 2 weeks shy of its normal timing band for a daily cycle low. However, stocks formed a convincing bullish reversal on Thursday that regained its breakdown level. If stocks form a swing low, that will signal an early DCL. A break above 4294.73 will form a daily swing low. Then a close above the 10 day MA will have us label day 22 as the DCL. Stocks will still need to break above both the 200 day MA and the 50 day MA before a trending move can develop.

Gravitational Pull

Stocks closed below the 200 day MA on Thursday then delivered bearish follow through Friday and Monday to signal the daily cycle decline. But there is something more sinister afoot.


Stocks are overdue for their yearly cycle low and appear to be feeling the gravitational pull of the pending YCL. A monthly swing high is required to complete the yearly cycle decline. A break below the previous DCL of 4222.62 will form a monthly swing high.

VXF daily: ( S fund) Looks like we might just test the lows with all the noise coming from the War Drums.... Close to tagging the lower BB....

Starting to buy a few shares of VXF at Vanguard after going flat..... ( A high risk trade and that is why I will be keeping it small )

Bottom Line: The Trend remains down!

We shall see if the 152.52 low marker holds, or we get an undercut. There is probably some stops around that level.....

For the first time on record, the Fed is embarking on its first tightening campaign with the Dow, SPX, Nasdaq and Russell 2000 all trading below their 200-day trendlines. And the rates cycle hasn't even started yet. Good luck to long-only equity investors.

I understand that inertia is a powerful force. But I find it amazing that investors still think that US stocks are the place to be invested and will continue to outperform the rest of the world. I for one, don't take 5 standard deviations (1 in 1mio) bets.

Stocks Deliver Sell Signal

Stocks formed a swing high on Thursday.

Stocks are currently in a daily downtrend that is characterized by highs forming below the upper daily cycle band and lows forming below the lower daily cycle band. Forming a swing high below the lower daily cycle band indicates a continuation of the daily downtrend and triggers a cycle band sell signal. The peak on day 7 sets stocks up for a left translated daily cycle formation. A break below the previous daily cycle low of 4222.62 will form a failed daily cycle.

SPY daily: A nice gap up to start the day, but it needs to get back above the 200 dma and hold. We shall see if this was just a half cycle low.

Stocks closed lower again on Monday.


The peak on day 7 indicates a left translated daily cycle formation. A break below the previous daily cycle low of 4222.62 will form a failed daily cycle to extend the intermediate cycle decline. However stocks formed a bullish reversal on Monday.


Stocks formed a bullish reversal on Monday at the 61% fib level. So it is possible to see a bounce here, which would likely make day 15 a half cycle low. We would need to see stocks close above the 50 day MA before we could have any confidence that a rally can be sustained. Stocks are currently in a daily downtrend and will remain so unless they close back above the upper daily cycle band.

HYG daily: Does HYG lead SPY?


Why the junk bond market is sending a historic signal
Jason Goepfert

High-yield bonds suffer historic selling pressure

Starting in November, we looked at suspect performance in high-yield bonds as a worrying sign. The Cumulative Advance/Decline Line was diverging as more and more bonds were declining even as stocks hit new highs.

Bonds were trying to recover from mild oversold conditions, but there were concerns about its sustainability. It's gotten worse since then.
High-yield bonds made a comeback at the end of the year, but soon after, more bonds were falling to 52-week lows than rising to 52-week highs, a clear sign of risk-off behavior among some of the most sensitive and forward-looking investors.

About the only bright spot is that selling pressure has been so focused over the past month that we're nearing some historic extremes. A broad cross-section of indicators is showing broad selling pressure and widespread pessimism.
