The rebound may have legs. If it can hold for the next couple of bars without big pullback then it'd be an uptrend day.

I'm a total lurker but I want to say thank you for all your analysis!

I also want to share this report which you should read if you want to understand the full risk to the economy and our public safety from the virus. Absent a robust response, we are going to have a lot of dead people and a tanked economy: https://www.researchgate.net/publicatio ... f_COVID-19

Stay safe!

Too bad the big pullback means the best for bulls is just a range day. Bears are seeking the range low, assume the day low for now.

This is spot on.
-this is not just the flu. WHO said the case fatality rate globally is 3.4%. That means for every case diagnosed, 3.4% of those people will die. CFRs for the flu are ~.1% for regular and ~.2% for a bad year. Corona is also highly contagious.
-Some people are saying the CFR is much lower because there are many undiagnosed cases. But this is not what the WHO has found globally. -
Most (~80%) of people will have mild symptoms. But the virus is terrible for people over 50. We can't just say "live with it" because then we're basically throwing all of our elders under the bus. 
Critical cases could overwhelm our health care system if we don't focus on containment. Italy just reported that 10% of cases require ICU care. If 20% of the US (60 million) get the virus (and that's a conservative number; some epidemiologists are saying 40-70%) then 6 million will need ICU care. The US has ~100,000 ICU beds. You do the math on what we do with the other 5,900,000 critical cases. And if the hospitals are basically hit with a denial of service attack, other critical cases (heart attacks, accidents, etc) are going to die for lack of treatment. This is why China was building hospitals in days. They needed to massively increase their capacity (see attached report and below)
-We do not have nearly enough testing kits available. This shows you just how far behind we are on testing. It's bad enough that the CDC removed the numbers earlier this week: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavir ... 9-testing/ We are rolling out test but not nearly fast enough-On Monday the administration said we'd have 1 million tests available by the end of this week. Yesterday Pence said it wouldn't happen. But then he claimed we'd have 1.2 million available next week. Let's hope so. 
-Because we're not aggressively testing, there are stealth epidemics all over the country. What's happening in Seattle is going to become the norm if we don't get ahead of this. 
-my son and I have been sick this week with upper respiratory symptoms. We should be tested. If we're positive our contacts should be traced and quarantined. But we've basically been told the health department is only approving tests for pneumonia cases. That's smart to prioritize, but it also shows how far we have to go. 
-This is not a hoax. If not dealt with appropriately, millions in the US could die and we could since into a terrible economic depression. Right now we are not dealing with it appropriately. 
Read the report above

People been comparing novel viruses to the flu... since like, forever... here's a newspaper in 1918... similar arguments about why not to worry. Then 50+million people died from the Spanish Flu.

Main difference from the flu is that with a novel virus that's zoonotic:

1. there is no immunity, and
2. there is no vaccine

#2 above cannot be said about the flu, and that is the biggest difference.

Combined with the fact that we stilly don't know too much about it (e.g. mortality rate), the downside is nearly unlimited, as people found out in 1918.

Yes, we have more medical equipment and tech now, but remember, this is a novel zoonotic virus, so again, there's no simple cure or vaccine, with limited (HIV meds, etc.) treatment, even with all the tech we have now.

So just know your history when you start comparing to the flu - there is precedent, and valid concerns - which is why scientists and medical professionals are concerned.

Doesn't mean we will have part deux of the Spanish Flu now, but also doesn't mean "it's just the flu" either, because the flu won't kill 50+million people - we have vaccines.

With SARS-CoV2, the reality is that we simply still don't know - and markets really don't like uncertainty. Trade wisely my friends.

SPY 5 minute. Back up to the EMA 20.

Have a good weekend, Everyone. Wash your hands a lot. Don't touch your face. You know the drill. Out in public gloves might be recommended, or put a paper towel between your hand and the gas pump or door knobs. Do not shake hands.
