Looks like 3 push up completed?

I think you just stated a given. Looking at 200 down Tuesday had Command Central issue "guidance".jimme wrote:This action is meant to scare the shorts right out of town. Im adding to my SMH puts right here. GLTA jimme

It involves an adaptable, but fairly steady, MA and Bollinger bands and a proprietary oscillator for divergences. It's not curve fitted and has 5 components to it for a trade to be signalled. 20 trades were winner and 5 broke even after the mkt first turned and a breakeven stop was put in after a move in a profitable direction of 2 SPY points.
The action that has been seen this week does not occur looking back three years. Someone seems to have not liked all these diagonals and trendlines breaking and moving averages crossing OR this is an outlier, and the down trend will resume. Given that my friend has a PhD in statistics, I give his e-mail of "this is absurd" some weight. He added a 2nd unit here and has a stop at new highs. I loved his comment to me stating, "when the markets do something truly stupid it is usually down". I think Nassem Taleb would agree to that one.
This market just exhibits weird behavior. I imply from your comments that tomorrow "should be" a gap up that gets filled by the close.Denali92 wrote:SWalsh wrote:There was a setup last night that has about 25 trades in 2 years.

The bounce in to employment is normal behaviour for the past 5 plus years....
The lack of follow through on Tuesday is not particularly normal AND ALL of the GAP UP and GOs after Single Red Candles is definitely NOT NORMAL!
Overall, I would agree as there is NO market period that I can find going back 5 plus years that is similar to the period since 19-Dec-11.

Totally abonormal. Take a look at Cobra's impulse system and you can find 3 straight heavy losses on the shorts even though the signals were there each time.

He sent me the last 7 days of trading and asked me to go back 3 years and tell him if he missed something, or is this behavior not there. I could find something similar to a turn like this after a 80-100 pt SPX drop, but not this. One might think "fractal". But that doesn't work either. This is a rather wealthy guy (the one guy I know who literally does not need any more money and it came from mkt profits going into real estate) who gives profits now to charity. I'd like it to be an amusing hobby as he seems to treat it. But he was able to use his knowledge back when a 10/40 MA crossover made a ton of money and just kept designing better as more simple things were taken away. I actually don't know his equation for his primary oscillator. He has non-disclosure agreements with a few other highly educated math guys. He said he might leave me a copy in his will, but I'd probably need a statistician to understand it.Denali92 wrote:
