I wanted to get something out for my followers, in case they are in front of their computers day trading this monuments event. The Fed is going to reveal to us their divine wisdom on interest rates if they will cut or keep the same. I am a firm believer that the chart is our ultimate guide to the future of news events and decisions. I believe the bulls have already played their card, with the recent run-up. The bullish case for the fed in my opinion is already "baked in the cake." That really just leaves one direction left... I am anticipating volatility around the meeting itself but still after the dust settles and all of the confusion and MYSTERY of the meeting is gone, then I expected the selling to begin/continue. It's true that this is a bold move before such a meeting, but I am honoring my market's bias and disposition, as I try to only trade in my direction of highest probability. As you all know, I am bearish until proven otherwise. If we are in a bear market then this level should be the last high before lower lows and lower highs commence. So here we go, hold on tight for a wild ride.
We are currently on horizontal support and in the chart, it looks ready to break down, as we approach 2:00
The path the fed has already taken has shown the world that there are deep concerns with the stock market. That's really all that matters. Now the fed will have to adjust rates as this thing crashes to make sure we crash in an orderly fashion, and not .. 100% free market principles, but that is probably for the best overall. Once the fed starts a path of increasing rates as per their plan, and then cutting rates and trying to over adjust to make up for the weakness of the stock market, well subconsciously it's just telling the whole world, like a Superbowl commercial, that the markets are intrinsically weak.
The market. IS NOT TODAY. Its 10 years history + 9 months projected expectations= today's price.
Note: if my overall theory is correct this very well could be the final high price in the SPY for a long time.
GL- Watching JPY and BTC as well. I am expecting the same out of these two assets as well.
PS- IT's the swing that matters folks.
