The higher if flies the harder it falls."Don't sell at the top, sell only if there's no rally after the reaction" ~Jessee Livermore. This market has been buying the dips, which is a rule in an uptrend market until the trend states otherwise. This is what has been happening so far. This market is facing changing circumstances from the time Yellen was the chair woman at the Federal Reserve. Increase of interest rates have been looming the horizon for a long time. It just has to be as smooth as possible to avoid a market overreaction. However the profit taking is unavoidable, after all nobody died poor after taking profits. And this time after the accumulation we have had the correction after a profit taking could make the market look bearish for a while. A 10%-30% correction at these levels is not the same 10%-30% correction at lower levels. So brace yourselves, and trade wisely, a bumpy market is in the Radar.

DIA-Preps to breakdownThe DOW (DIA) is showing extreme signs of breakdown below the 50dma. Notice the historical movements and now the volatility of the moves. Huge difference. What is not said can be found in the recent annual Treasury report and confirmed at the FRED (Federal Reserve Economic Data website. 1) The US government operated to the tune of 1.7 trillion dollars overbudget. 2) Total US Debt including unfunded Liabilities now exceeds 70 Trillion dollars. 3) Every US citizen from the date of birth to death in 2016 has an implied responsibility to US debt at the rate of $232K per person. www.fiscal.treasury.gov(Final).pdf 4) FRED data showed on Jan 3 2018 that the historical interbank lending went to near $0.00 and the FRED has discontinued this report that has been tracking this indicator since 1973. 5) In other words banks are no longer loaning to each other because there is a lost faith that banks loans are solvent. 6) I believe a retracement to structure will occur to the level of 18300 in the next 6 months. fred.stlouisfed.org 7) My assessment is based on current conditions of USA all assets. 8) Globally, the market correction caused 242 trillion dollars to leave the market and there is not any clear indication that any asset classes are recovering. 9) There may be increases in numismatic gold purchases according to my resources. 7) Overall MACD is signaling short 8) I am short the DOW Jun 18K 2018 puts as insurance on my portfolio.

Start of a bear market - DJIA January 2018Using DIA for analysis, because YM is too open to low-volume manipulation. We have a spectacular breakaway gap on Jan 30th. My read on the market: the 26th ended normally. A discussion happened over the weekend, possibly resulting an old-money divorce. Trust was violated and a family heirloom of important stock was sold Monday morning. This is another reason futures aren't the thing to watch. The trust/heirloom consisted of DJIA stocks themselves, along with some S&P 500's. Insiders knew that stock was never to be sold, unless a massive violation had occurred. Word got around that morning and old money players sold like crazy. That set off buy programs, as usual, and the morning ended unchanged. After lunch, word got around and they changed their minds. Overnight, word spread resulting in the gap down on Jan 30th. That is a breakaway from prior market conditions. We have an entirely new market driven by fundamentals and a different financial structure. Old assumptions are gone. The so-called PPT no longer has an unlimited line of credit. Also, they can't rely on the same structural support. This market will not correct until a 1930's type of return to solid value occurs. This is a great unwinding of all financial and monetary manipulations as we return focus to cash flow and real goods sold/exported. My guess, is Toshiba's example might be followed. In 2015, 8 executives resigned citing $1.2 billion in accounting issues (aka fraud). Some of those executives had been with Toshiba since the 1970's. They seppuku'd themselves and may have done so early enough to avoid criminal prosecution. Time will tell, but at least they did something right showing a semblance of doing the right thing, if not showing remorse. Given the excesses of the 1980's, leading up to the dot com bust of 2000, we have over 30 years of financial manipulation to work through at an individual corporation by corporation basis. While I see brand/corporation surviving, with a total replacement of all board members and executives. Gen-X is tired (I am one of them), so the offers better be kind. Millennials lack experience, but will be assistive in this generational transfer. Back to the point: companies and audits are forthcoming. Don't underestimate the significance of recent Pentagon discoveries. Arthur Anderson went under in 2001, I believe, and auditing will make a comeback. These corporate numbers represent people's jobs and futures, as well as natural resources and efficient use thereof, while directing them toward quality exports. Americans will have to own up to their marketing and provide value to the world. Near term I see $180 DIA as a breathing place for support. Fundamentals will be reviewed and I think $140 is likely within a year or two, on the outside. I'd like to see things happen more quickly, as the age of the internet has made communication much faster. There is a time required for emotional integration, and work, however, even with instant information. How long this bear market lasts and how deep it goes is up to us. Position: Neutral. I do not advise shorting stocks (manipulation, accounting, etc.) Speculators should focus on ETF's and minis. That will clarify and allow the experts to fix the problems.

Diamonds Aren't Forever. The (DIA) DIAMONDS!!!Hi friends! Welcome to this analysis on the badly beaten, Dow Jones Industrial Average. The instrument that we will be using to review the Dow, is the DIA ETF. Looking at the four hour chart, you can see that the Dow has been trading in a long bearish uptrend formation, known as an ascending broadening wedge (in blue.) Ascending broadening wedges are patterns that typically produce breaks to the downside, and we can see that the bottom side of the wedge was pierced in today's trading action. The pierce of the bottom side of the wedge, has weakened it as a support level. Furthermore, on the previous candle, we actually closed below the wedge. However, traders were quick to print a reversal candle — sending prices right back up into the pattern. If you'll notice, the current candle has closed below the 200 EMA (in purple.) You can see that we actually rallied above it, but closed below. As a form of reference, we haven't been under the 200 EMA, since the night of President Trump's election. That puts a bit of perspective into the significance of this development. Sell-side volume is beginning to dominate the chart, and the MACD is rapidly declining. Assuming that this is the breakdown point of the broadening wedge pattern, I have measured it's height, and subtracted it from the breakdown, to determine a potential downside target. As you can see, a corrective move, that represents the full potential of the broadening wedge pattern, would send prices down to the 61.8% retrace, exactly. I'm not saying that prices will fall there, I'm just saying that, should a breakdown ensue, that level would represent a correction to the full potential of the wedge. Such a correction would represent a 15% decline from current levels. For now, let's take baby steps, and look for evidence to materialize. First, we need to confirm that a sustained breakdown is taking place. Ideally, I would like to see the 200 EMA continue to act as resistance, pushing the DIA back below the lower trendline. At that point, we would need to reassess the underlying indicators, to determine the validity of the breakdown. Speaking of indicators, I'd like to draw your attention to the most recent action on the volume. You can see that the volume bar all the way to the right, is a relatively short bar, compared to the ones behind it. The second bar back, is tall and red. This tells us that significantly more traders were willing to sell into the breakdown of the wedge, than those who were willing to buy the recovery back into it. On the other hand, the MACD does look like it's curling a bit, so the bulls could potentially put a bottom in here. I think that is unlikely, but my thoughts are irrelevant. We need to watch the chart, to know for sure. Look for a break above the 200 EMA and the 23.6% retrace, coupled with a bullish MACD crossover, to signal a reversal to the upside. On the downside, watch for continued pressure from the 200 EMA, followed by a subsequent breakdown below the broadening wedge. Good luck traders!

The Big Boys-DIAToday the market will open lower and retest 23930.....Its nearly there now. I expect a dip of another 1100 points...This is not over in any way shape or form. I have my eye on the XIV fund for a placement of physical and calls. My calls are at .17 for the 30's March expiry. My longs are for the same at 5.00 per share. That one excites me the most considering it was 145 dollars a unit 4 days ago....this got clobbered hard. This is my plan and for information only!
