PSA: Caution rogue robotsThis is a PSA. If you are or are not aware of what is currently going on in the market firms are being held hostage in the gme standoff. To meet the obligationsof the contracts they were selling naked (calls) firms are liquidating long positions broadly. Looking at the Cebu skew it is currently at one of the highest levels it can possibly be meaning that there is a 10 to 12% chance of an outlier move of roughly two to three sigma. you can see that very apparently on the SPX options chain as most of the downside weight is out of the money roughly two standard deviations. The vix is currently in backwardation with spot vix above the futures months. These conditions are similar to what we have seen during the corona crash. However we have yet to see if the market can regain price ranges. Currently realized volatility is exceeding implied volatility meaning the market is not efficient. So once again caution rogue robots

DIA leading TRBDIA leading TRB As the title says, DIA is running on the cycle slightly ahead. This creates opportunities obviously.. :) But they are quite in the lockstep movements. Because of the supply and some of the tokenomics I decided to jump the DIA ship and board TRB instead.. that may have been a dumbass move. One problem is the per token cost of TRB will put off noobs. They'll buy DIA instead as they just get more. But we shall see which prevails. Seems DIA also uses more of a centralized database within the functionality of their oracle service, which kind of defies the whole point of decentralized oracles. My friend brought this up and it kind of put me off DIA a bit. Regardless these are two rather obvious oracle small cap plays, which no doubt will pump like crazy at some point in this cycle. They actually have some utility. glhf

This time is...⏰ Market exuberance:New secular bear market? 🐻Hi mates, stock market is probably near top and next huge market meltdown is next door . Why i think so?I want to share with you some pieces of my analysis: 📌S&P500 vs. Utilities sector ratio It seems it could forecast short and mid term corrections in stock market but it looks like its good indicator of broader market cycles as secular bear/bull markets. A secular market trend is a long-term trend that lasts 5 to 25 years and consists of a series of primary trends. A secular bear market consists of smaller bull markets and larger bear markets; a secular bull market consists of larger bull markets and smaller bear markets. 📌Yield spread Inverted yield curve is leading warning indicator of future recession. The basic principle is whe yield spred inverted (was in negative territory) you can expect recession in next 12-months.It happened when Dot.com bubble bursted in 2000-2001 and so in Great financial crisis in 2007- 2008 as you see in chart. 📌Put/Call ratio The put-call ratio is calculated by dividing the number of traded put options by the number of traded call options. You can use it as contrarian indicator to determine how much Bullish/Bearish the market is. An extremely low ratio means the market is extremely bullish. A contrarian might conclude that the market is too bullish and is due for a pullback. Contrary extremely high ratio means the market is extremely bearish. In my analysis i using 20day MA of Put/Call Ratio an looking up for divergencies. 📌VIX divergence of 20 MA 📌Nasdaq vs Russlel 2000 Just so similar pattern on monhly chart of Nasdaq and Russell 2000 📌Other factors Margin debt acceleration is another sign of speculative frenzy in the market Margin debt is not a technical indicator for trading markets. What margin debt represents is the amount of speculation that is occurring in the market. In other words, margin debt is the ‘gasoline,’ which drives markets higher as the leverage provides for the additional purchasing power of assets. However, ‘leverage’ also works in reverse as it supplies the accelerant for more significant declines as lenders ‘force’ the sale of assets to cover credit lines without regard to the borrower’s position.

S&P 500: Aug 12 1982 defines all rallies including Friday's highAfter all the hundreds of trend lines and channel that I have drawn over the last year, I have finally found the most important channel and trend lines. Believe it or not they all originate from August 12, 1982 and Friday's high hit a key trend line. What is so important about that date. Here is some info from the Wall Street Journal. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- www.wsj.com It was on Aug. 12, 1982, that the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped to its 1980-82 recession low of 776.92—almost precisely where the Index had closed in January 1964. Starting as a trickle, the decline in inflation and long-term interest rates picked up speed that summer, and investors in common stocks began to have confidence that they were being liberated from the shackles of double-digit inflation and interest rates, an innovation-sapping regulatory regime, and a tax code that was antithetical to capital formation. During that lazy summer, institutional and individual investors came to the conclusion that the back of inflation had been broken. Not insignificantly, they also believed that they had a friend in the White House. When Henry Kaufman of Salomon Brothers said that Treasury yields had reached their highs in a note to clients on Aug. 17, 1982, stock prices exploded. This provided free-market optimists with desperately needed evidence that their principles would provide a path forward. The simple—yet difficult to achieve—strategy of getting the government out of the way and turning the economy over to free enterprise set the stage for a period of tremendous economic growth and wealth creation. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now one point is not enough to define a line. We need a second point. Now I don't know exactly where the slope of this line originated, but I can find a clear pattern that exposes the originating line from 1982. It first is visible in May 1986, again in Aug 1989, July 1996, and most importantly during the correction after the dot com bubble July 2002 - March 2003. Defining this as the "Master Trend Line" you can determine the peak of every rally since then. How you ask? Well it is quite simple. You can create a parallel channel with this line, then you can pull up/down the other side of the channel to align the "dotted line middle" with key tops and bottoms of the major rallies. The top of the channel will then give you a very accurate guess at where the next rally will make a peak/top. It also works for corrections. The crash bottom in March 2009 is just an inverted version. What I have done in this chart is starting from this "Master Trend Line" created several channels (using different colors) that align the dotted middle line to key points (color coded crosshair icons). The line up perfectly. In the most basic case you just keep moving the upper channel up in price to hit key lows and highs. That is it, nothing more complex than that. Note the March 2020 low lines up very well with the middle line that established the July 2019 peak. Note that on Friday the S&P touched one of these lines. The channel middle is Feb 9, 2018. The low after the large correction from the super strong 2017 rally. The next most obvious level is the clear set of price patterns around the 2800 level. Setting the middle there moves the channel (orange) up to around 4100-4200. The next peak to align could be Jan 2018 or I think more likely the Sept 2018 peak as it clearly define a pattern through 2019-2020 (red). That would be around 4500-4600. We could align to the pink line that defined the July 2019 peak (dark red). That would be around 4700-4800. That is not all. I have also laid out the Elliott Waves starting at Aug 12, 1982 and used the dot com as Wave 1. The trick here is trying to figure out if March 2020 was the end of Wave 4, which looks like it was to me. Now the question is how much power will Wave 5. Note that since the March low the S&P has already eclipsed the price change of wave 1 ($1448). From a percentage size they are not close but I don't think that matters with waves, just price. One technique I use to estimate Wave 5 if we know wave 3 is this. Assume standard wave 1, 3, 5 with fib levels of 1.0, 1.618, 2.0. In this case we have an guess of wave 3 at an actual fib level of 2.236. I calculate a thing I call the Bull Ratio as 2.236/1.618 = 1.382. Now multiply the nominal 2.0 fib by this ratio. 2.0*1.382 = 2.764. The closest fib to the level is 2.786 @ $4143. That fib level intersects the orange trend line around May. One last thing. Here are my rising wedge pattern and trend lines. Well, that is what I have put together on my Saturday afternoon. Hope it is helpful.
