Stock Market Aggressive Sell Signals, but Discretion is Warranted

Stock-Markets / Stock Market 2017 Dec 15, 2017 - 03:09 PM GMT

Stock-Markets

SPX futures are higher with the expectation of the passage of the tax reform bill. Yesterday’s decline may not be impulsive and did not make it to Short-term support. Let’s see how the bounce develops before taking positions. I would suggest that Short-term support should be broken before short positions are added.

ZeroHedge reports, “U.S. equity index futures point to a higher open, having rebounded some 10 points off session lows with the VIX stuck on the edge between single and double digits, while European and Asian shares decline as investors assess central banks’ shift toward tighter monetary policy and concern over tax overhaul ahead of final plan. “


ZH further comments, “With Bloomberg writing this morning that "Mystery, Suspense Mount" two days after President Donald Trump told the American public that Congress was “just days away” on tax reform, two more senators - including one-time Trump rival - Marco Rubio appear to be getting cold feet - much to the market’s chagrin. Yesterday afternoon, stocks dropped and the VIX jumped above 10 as Rubio and Utah’s Mike Lee said they had reservations about the draft bill being put together by the conference committee.”

NDX futures are also higher. While the bounce is only partial, the decline does not leave enough space to declare a top just yet.

VIX futures pulled back this morning after closing above the 50-day Moving Average in the final minutes of yesterday’s session. A close above the 50-day Moving Average is an aggressive sell signal. Exercise caution as suggested above.

The NYSE Hi-Lo Index closed in an aggressive sell signal. We’ll monitor it later today for a deeper low and a possible close beneath the trendline.

TNX bounced to challenge the mid-Cycle resistance and 50-day Moving Average at 23.60. The pattern is corrective, but may be applicable to a Wave 2 extension.

ZeroHedge observes, “Before you shut down that terminal for the year, hoping that the year is - mercifully - finally over, you may want to consider that according to former Lehman trader and current Bloomberg macro commentator Mark Cudmore, the Christmas pain trade is about to be unveiled, and it will be especially painful for all those short Treasurys. As Cudmore warns, with ten-years stuck in a 2.3%-2.43% range for the past seven weeks, "the arguments are adding up for a violent downside break during the weeks ahead."

USD futures are flat this morning. It’s fair to say that the decline may have just begun. USD is on a sell signal That may take it to the end of January when the next Master Cycle low is expected.

USD/JPY is also trending down, having made a low of 112.03 this morning.

Regards,

Tony
