EFA and UDN pop look favorable for I-funders today... albeit very gappy on the EFA daily. Weekly EFA sticks and bollys getting close to overbought. Toss up in the short term/med term, and long-term looks like a measured bull move once the short/med term pullback some. Wash, rinse, repeat. All while people condemn the central banks even when they've telegraphed the message since day 1.
 
I think the dollar is reacting this morning to the continued tapering, and the debt ceiling being raised without any serious cuts in spending. The UUP gapped down hitting 2 year lows...

There is an open gap from 2011 that may be the next test if the dollar doesn't snap back into the trading range (21.50 - 23.00 on the UUP).

The drop in the dollar helped push gold up. Gold has been in sell the rally mode but if the dollar breaks down, we could see it bottom here.

Surprisingly, the weak dollar is not keeping oil higher, although it opened much lower and is trying to crawl back above the head and shoulders neckline and the rising support line. If the economy is slowing, this may be where we see it first in the form of a breakdown.

Despite all this, the stock charts look good, perhaps because of the weakening dollar?
 
Nice charts, Tom. We could get a quick VIX surprise and reversal as it drops to a 12 handle and the lower bolly. Quick out then back in for me.
 
Yup, makes sense too. Institutions hand off to the little guy after what feels like an all-clear sign. But then they let it fall to just buy in at a better price. Honestly, no big deal in the big picture since it puts in a higher floor. Big guys just shaving points.
 
Let's try one more time and see if I can get it right without being offensive to any members. I believe the weakening dollar today is a reflection of the policies and regulations being produced by a lack of integrity from the White House. This weakness could last several months and benefit the I fund.

I was thinking the same thing this morning. I put in my IFT to the G today and will probably get back in tomorrow or Monday (waiting for the drop).
 
GOOG is blowin'em out after the market close with a +50 point gain. Please don't crowd around the door way tomorrow because money is going to flow like water.
 
Volume is starting to increase - the preliminary first sign of a tremendous buying panic headed our way - it would be classic. I feel the rumble of the herd and they are on the move. 1750 is only going to be a quick stop on the way to higher highs.
