Does the upper boundary of the channel on the I fund chart need to be moved up given June results landing slightly above the line? I am in I fund this month because of the three charts it seems to be consistently embedded (over 80 slow stochastics) and an upward channel with multiple EMA curves as support. This is my first time in I - last year I was only S or C and your charts have been very helpful. Best of luck!
 
Hi Flalaw, I am leaving that longer term upper trendline (upper blue) in place on I Fund a bit longer just to continue showing that the breakout occurred 9 days ago. oh and yes, both C and I fund continue to be embedded above 80 on Slow Stochastic, so they are in an uptrend. They are both melting up, but with I fund doing much better! C Fund is still within its long term channel. I will likely redraw lines for C fund soon. For I fund, will likely add in set of short-term (purple) lines this evening.

Glad you find charts useful! Best wishes to you and everyone!!! :D :D :D

PS. I will likely redraw the I Fund blue (longer term) lines when it forms a new swing high low.
 
COB 2 minute charts. interesting to see market reaction at 2ET when Economic Projections came out followed by Powell's Fed speak, but it eventually ended on a high note before a little selloff thereafter and at day's end. S=-.23%. C=.-54%. I= -.62%

Let's see what happens tomorrow.

Here are today's charts... A bit early. Flalaw, I added a new line to I Fund (now solid upper blue) but kept the longer term upper trend line (now showing as dotted blue line) which goes back to January. I believe the dotted line is still the valid longer term trend line, but I do see value in drawing in the new solid blue line.
Best wishes to you and everyone! :D:D:D

PS...some may see this as opportunity to enter. I am debating, as usual :rolleyes:, but will likely hold on Lilly pad. will see....

Hi, So here is one of interest. This is S&P 500 Percentage of stocks that are now above their 50 day Moving Average. I put in a second (blue) line that is daily COB price for the S&P index (C Fund). So typically S&P prices follow along (generally) with level of percentage of stocks above 50 DMA. The lines are not directly correlated as this comparison of % of stock doing well as opposed to tge Index's overall price. But wow...what a divergence going on there now. Hummm... Maybe more caution is warranted! :worried: Or maybe this just means that price is concentrated in stocks that are above their 50 DMA in comparison to rest of stocks in S&P???? Hummm....

Just looked at charts this morning. A little ugly, but not completely unexpected. Price did drop below 10 day EMA...yesterday for C and I fund and two days ago on S fund. S and C fund dropped below short-term trendlines 3 days ago (day before Fed meeting). For me personally, a breech of 10 Day EMA is my "drop dead" exit signal.

Of course that breech does not always result in a major downturn, but from what I have seen that breech is not typically good. So I observe it to ensure I am not in market when it starts a major downturn and to prevent me from getting sucked into mentality of "riding it out". This is for capital preservation and, as you all know, I don't do losses very well. :sick: I see that the I-fund is still above its longer term trend line. If it breaks that support level, watch out.

Because exiting on 10day EMA can still involve an ugly loss (as Whipsaw once pointed out), my charts show 3-day and 7-day EMAs to consider earlier exits. Of course, I also consider other indicators (MACD, RSI, Stochastics), trendline breeches, candlestick patterns, Dollar, VIX, interest rates, seasonality, news/economic metrics, Fed decisions and NAAIM exposure.

Best wishes to everyone and hope you have a good weekend! :smile:

I just looked at Friday's COB charts and weeklies. Well.. Here is my take. Best Wishes!

S Fund – Finished with -1.26% drop. Still within a midterm Trading range that started in February. It touched the 50 day EMA intraday on Friday, but still above it at 2190.16. If it breaks down from here, next support is 100 day at 2164.43…roughly 25 points. Slow Stochastic is now at 50.31 and RSI 14 is now below 50 at 48.63, and default MACD is just now crossing below its signal line, and so I suspect market will go lower. I noticed that IWM (Russell 2000) did drop 2.27% on Friday with high volume. So, that shows some conviction. BUT when I look at weekly chart, I notice it is going into a pipe (tightened Bollinger Bands). So, while I do believe price will drop some more, probably bringing the Slow stochastic below 20. I think I would like to see those weekly bands expand and for price to show direction before entry. Will see….

C Fund – dropped -1.31% on Friday, fell through its 50day EMA and almost touched the lower Bollinger Band. This happened on high volume, so seems likely this could continue down a bit longer. RSI, MACD default and Slow Stochastic also down. On Weekly chart, I noticed that price action this past week fell below a longer term trendline and rising wedge that goes back to March 2020. That is bearish. Also, noticed that during the past seven weekly price actions, this weekly chart has now formed a lower high and very slight lower low (bearish).

I Fund - On daily chart, price dropped 1.91%, but not on high volume and held at bottom longer term trendline, so that’s good. But indicators for RSI, Slow Stochastic and MACD default all dropping….With Slow Stochastic at 34.67. Maybe it goes down more too. On Weekly chart, its clear tge fund lost four weeks of gains. This past loss was on fairly high volume, so its showing some conviction, but it is not below mid-point of Bollinger Bands. It will be interesting to see how this week goes. It has not yet made a lower low. So, seems neutral for short-term.

Market showing a little life this morning, but not enough to entice me into buying into last week's losses. Will see how it does tomorrow.
At this time, S fund is .60% up, C fund is .65% up and I fund is .45% up.

Best wishes to all!!! :smile:

Been away all day and just now seeing COB candles. Wow! Seems very strong. Up in morning and kept fairly steady until last hour drop with rally into close. Must reassess in morning. Futures up a bit right now.

Yes I think that it is a little early to jump back in for me. would like to see more of an up turn in the charts to confirm.
