DIA

The Carry OverGood morning. Yesterday's action brought some carry over/follow through from Friday, finishing the day with about a 1% gain. We have three types of patterns going on right now in the markets'. QQQ is telling us to sell, DIA is telling us to buy and SPY going nowhere. We bounced off the 20 day, stopping at the 50 day on SPX. So the question is: Is this ABC correction going to hold? It's going to need motivation if it's going to follow through on the roll over. And the CPI report on Thursday could be what tips this over. Most are saying that the report is going to be higher than expected. So if the FED is still hawkish. The CPI report favored coming in higher. Why would the markets continue higher? Only time will tell. Plan for the Day: We can still run up and visit 3850ish and be in line with our ABC correction. That's the area I really wanted to see the price action to confirm the end of this ABC correction. If there are many rejections at the 3850 area, I might want to get into a low risk short (1% of my portfolio) and put it out 4 weeks. If we trade sideways, I'll wait again tomorrow to get a better entry on a short position. If this blows through 3850 today or tomorrow and makes it's way to 3900, I'm going to sit on my hands until I see the 20 day cross over the 50. Then, I'll turn bullish. Again, be patient, stay disciplined and trade the markets in front of you. Happy Trading!

SPX500 / ES - The Faint of Heart Shall Have Fainting HeartsThe truth is that a difficult market will forge a trader (assuming you stay solvent, lol), whereas markets like the 2020-2021 bull run, which everyone so desires to reappear, do not. There is nothing to achieve by buying calls at literally any point, whether high or low, and watching it immediately turn green and run for days. Of course, a lot of people still lost money buying the top and paper handing the retraces or being on short expiry OTM calls, but a gambler is a gambler and a professional is a professional. This market is really hard to trade because it's not trending. It's still seek and destroy, and with a lot of psychological manipulation. All the sirens sing recession. All the wolves howl the Federal Reserve isn't going to pivot. Then YEN-USD is going to 250. WTI is going to $3,000. The UK is going to turn into Nigeria. Credit Suisse, which is already $3, is going to 50 cents and that's really scary "OMG it's Bear Sterns," wow this smells and looks like 2008, hah, hah! etc, etc. The reality is that October has already made a new 2022 low, and after September already made a new 2022 low, and frankly, we're not done making 2022 lows quite yet. But the truth is also that very few people understand how much of a problem it will be for what I dub the Eighth Communist International, more commonly known as the Democratic Socialists of America/Neoconservative-captained NATO bloc, to have the U.S. equities market crash before it is time to roll out the One World Central Bank Digital Currency, which will incorporate the notorious Chinese Communist Party's heinous social credit and "Zero-COVID" schema. The reason you have never seen the US equities markets actually crash is this reason. The 2008 and 2020 crashes were called stop raids and buying opportunities. The US equities markets have really never seen a bear market. You're still not in a bear market. You're just in the retracement of the greatest bull run the most ridiculously resilient stock market has ever seen. To business: I believe that we will see SPX and Nasdaq both run, or at least bounce, their pre-COVID highs, because Dow already did in both June and September and October: And where one goes the other two seem to like to play Monkey See, Monkey Do. However, 3,000 SPX is a bit too much of a fall at present, to be honest, so I have my eyes on SPX following what Dow did in June, which is to bounce off the pre-COVID high around 3,400. Note that next FOMC rate hike is Nov. 2, a Wednesday, and Timraios from WSJ, who is more or less JPow's unofficial spokesperson, has already said 75bps is inbound. Note that last FOMC everyone and their vegetable crisper knew that 75 bps was en route and we still ate a massive 200 point down day that set off a formidable and sustained dump. Note that the US midterm elections are Nov. 8 and that markets have often bounced afterwards and that it's likely that a Republican "Red Wave" will be regarded as bullish in terms of how the narrative is spun. After all, the Neocons are, like, business people, or something. But before we get there, this previous week's price action makes it clear, in my opinion, that before FOMC we are going to take the 3,820 mark and set a new October high. The question will be, then, can one go short, or do we get pushed even higher back to the 4030 range? What will be tricky is if it lingers in the 38xx-39xx range until FOMC and the the FOMC manipulation wick is all the way into 4,000. I really do not believe that we are going to see the SPX lose a thousand more points in 2022. I think we will see numbers like that occur when the problems between the Russian Federation and NATO exacerbate further. Russia is unable to back down from the war and NATO and DC cannot back down from the war. What lies ahead is a nuclear or biological conflict, for real. The war is only going to end when there is a winner between the two, or more accurately, when Heaven settles our problems for us with a real disaster. I also do not believe that the markets will crash at the Federal Reserve or the Biden Administration's hand. That will be terrible politically and will cause a lot of problems for the 8th Comintern on the global stage, so it will be arranged instead that the market crash necessary for the installation of global Communist social credit/CBDC is predicated on the back of a disaster that we will probably be told to blame Putin/Xi for, one that technocracy will be purported to save our very lives from. But in the meantime I also do not believe that we have seen the 2022 bottom. I think there's a BIG Q4 rally en route wherein Nasdaq goes totally apeshit while energy stocks, oil, natural gas, and defense contractors dump, because the real problems are in 2023. If you understand why the markets will do this, you will understand how if it unfolds as I have said, it is a Level 99 Red Alert. A real Level 99 Red Alert. If this society makes it through to 2024, that will really be something. The problems that lie ahead are that dire. What I want to see and expect to see before that Q4 rally occurs is a "bullish breaker" that takes out the October low. A real likely candidate for how that unfolds is for it to occur in early November, arguably on the back of dovish news from FOMC, with November as a month ending up forming an outside bar that leads into a December and January mega rally. If you do puts above 3,850 you should buy them with a lot of time on the contract and be prepared to have to average down. It may be worth hedging spot long with a liberal stop and a total willingness to abandon a green long early. Apple needs to make a new low before you can put on your rally hats, but the manipulation is coming both ways so that you'll be scared to be long when you need to be long and will be scared to be short when you need to be short. One last thing: Xi Jinping had his predecessor Hu Jintao removed from the Chinese Communist Party's summit today, Twitter says. No matter what Wall Street and Comintern 8 have planned, when the CCP falls, SPX is losing 1,000 points that day because it isn't on anyone's schedule. Be careful. Danger abounds and this can end at any time.

IWM / SMALL CAPS - STRONGEST MARKETI have a few observations on the market from last week and going on to this week. Something to note, I'm looking at the WEEKLY chart and have a longer time horizon. This is very intentional. I want to demonstrate that PRIOR to any major market move, BOTH bulls and bears will get shaken out. It is very naive to assume that you can have a strong directional bias and only see a straight line upwards in your P/L. Focusing on a smaller timeframe will result in some serious shake-outs on both ends of the market. Therefore, taking a step back and being able to see the larger picture can very much help tame emotions and see things for what they really are. Unfortunately, this is a rare character trait of the vast majority of market participants. As of the close of last week: Small caps are the strongest area of the stock market. While Nasdaq, S&P and the Dow Jones broke below their prior June lows, Small Caps HAVEN'T. See for yourself. Even though the overall trend is DOWN, this is a major signal to keep an eye on. Small caps tend to lead in the breakdowns and breakouts. Big directional moves inside a consolidation zone are not trading signals. The news on 10/13, Thursday, caused a big sell-off that was followed by a massive rally. Everyone on financial TV and social media was calling bottoms, reversals and quoting statistics. Nonetheless a one-day move doesn't mean anything without a major trend change - which takes TIME (and patience) to develop. The following day, Friday, gave back most of Thursday's gains. Here's the point - this type of price action is very normal in a sideways consolidations market. All big moves INSIDE A CONSOLIDATION ZONE can be easily faded in both directions. The June rally took SIX WEEKS to build up. Using that as an example (NOT PREDICTION), we can spend a few more weeks in this sideways chop and that would be totally okay. A fake-out move in either direction would not surprise me I've donated far too much money to the market by "going all in" on break-out trades. It wouldn't surprise me at all to see a major breakout with an immediate reversal in the opposite direction. Moral of the story here is to wait for confirmation. A small position is a MUST on all breakouts, since the most powerful breakouts rarely come back to test the breakout level and we don't want to miss out on such opportunities. However, such breakouts are RARE and therefore capital preservation and risk management should be our HIGHEST & #1 PRIORITY. PERSONAL VIEW I still lean more bullish in the short-term (2-6 months), even with last week's wreck in the rest of the indices. There's too much negativity in the market among other factors. If my personal experience and observations after many years serves me well, such environment can sooner or later become ripe for a major squeeze. You don't want to fade that train. Mid/Long-term, I'm leaning bearish for another major leg down. We'll need a good rally first to entice all the bulls back into the market. When you start seeing news about "the bottom is in" or "new highs" statistics, BEWARE! BIBLE VERSE OF THE WEEK "Unless the LORD builds a house, the work of the builders is wasted. Unless the LORD protects a city, guarding it with sentries will do no good." Psalm 127:1

Dow Jones Industrial Average relative strength on the riseThe overall US equity market is still having a hard time stabilizing and catching its footing, however, if we examine the major US indices closer we do notice more and more relative strength coming out of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. This past week it never took out its September lows, the MACD momentum oscillator continues to climb aggressively, and on Friday we remained in the top 1/3 of Thursday's bullish engulfing bar. I started a position on Thursday and will keep a tight leash risk managing it going forward. More notes on the chart.

Is the bear market over for DIA? $2.388 on the horizon?DIA is one project I've followed for a while now. I did my fundamental analysis and at the same time followed the price closely, making some incredible gains trading intraday. For those who don't know what DIAdata (DIA) is, it's one of the web3 data oracle projects in the space. You can find more about this project at DIA official website. It's one of the top Chainlink LINK competitors. A recent analysis I made on DIA shows that the asset could be on its way to $2.388 in the coming weeks to months. It currently trades at $0.397 at the time of publishing this analysis. On the weekly chart, DIA has formed a descending wedge; in this case, signals a bearish reversal for the DIA asset. The target is always the top of the wedge which in this case - is $2.388. Remember, this analysis is based on the weekly time frame and may take weeks to months to finally hit the desired target. There's also a possibility that we make further lows or play sideways before we finally head towards the target. What's your take on this, I'll like to know your view.
