DJT trade ideas

DJT,a leading economic indicator,again topping out bef SPX w H&SSomething is wrong! NOWHERE to hide except cash. Even XLP staples crash last week. Now DJT is showing yet another warning sign. It just broke the very crucial 14k support, completing a head & shoulder pattern. Measured move may send it down to the 11k to 10300 zone. It is now at 13500 my green pivot box where the red dotted median of my PITCHFORK is located. If 14k is not reclaimed next few days, I think DJT may be making a 5 waves further down to 12300 where the black VWAP from the pandemic low will intersect. After that it will make a counter trend wave 4 rally back to retest 14k (wave 4 should not cross wave 1) before the final wave 5 dump to my yellow 11k to 10300 zone. Last time DJT topped-out on 17Sept2018, 16 months before SPX’s peak on 13Jan2020. This time DJT peaked on 2Nov2021. This scenario suggest that recession is already underway & we just dont see it yet, especially if SPX gets rejected again at 4100/4200 again after this week’s expected oversold rally & breaks below 3800. Worst scenario may see SPX further down at 3520 or even 3200. This time may be different coz we are in uncharted territory with so many headwinds like rising inflation, FED doing whatever it takes to raise interest rates to fight inflation, the invasion & the energy & food crisis it created & also the China lockdown. This time there will be no stimulus & no FED saving the stock market. Not trading advice. Minimize risks & trade with CAUTION!

Transports Break SupportTransportation stocks have been unusually strong this year, but that might have changed yesterday. The main feature on this chart of the Dow Jones Transportation Average is the September low at 13,947. Prices managed to remain above this level throughout the market’s correction as other indexes like the S&P 500 and Nadaq-100 knifed below the same respective points on their charts. DJT lost that distinction yesterday as it suffered its biggest drop in almost two years. Second, the index broke out above its 50- and 200-day simple moving averages (SMAs) in mid-March as the broader market rebounded. But then it reversed and made lower highs at both SMAs in April and May. Third, that price action dragged the 50-day SMA below the 200-day, resulting in a potentially bearish “death cross.” Given the importance of “Dow Theory,” which uses Transports to judge moves in the broader market, yesterday’s price action could have bigger implications for sentiment. Traders may now view it as confirmation of a bearish trend. TradeStation has, for decades, advanced the trading industry, providing access to stocks, options, futures and cryptocurrencies.

DJT:bellwether for stocks & economy just sliced thru 14k supportThis is bad! Stocks are falling even when DXY dollar index & TNX 10-yr yield are retracing. The Dow Jones Transportation, a leading indicator for the stock mkt & the economy, just zipped through the 14k key support, down 7.41%. All stock indices had a capitulation-like move Wednesday 18May, the worst since the pandemic days. Even defensive staples, household retailers like Target & Walmart fell. DTJ has fallen into my green support zone. It may fall further it does not recover 14k soon. Not trading advice

DJT @ 3rd green wk. WHY it may be making abc zigzag downAlthough transportation looks bullish now with 2 green weekly close after a big plunger, I still think this is just the b counter wave & there is one more c wave down to my green zone. There are still overhead resistances at various VWAPs. Transports, like IWM small caps, is a very impt leading indicator of our economy. With oil cost rebounding & labor difficulty adding to a slowing economy due to supply chain crisis,, things just dont turn around in a flash although medium & longterm is still bullish. Transports usually peaks out way way ahead of SPX. With transports seem recovering, I think SPX will still make a new high in 2022. Not trading advice

Does Anyone Remember Charles Dow?Something interesting happened with the Dow Jones Transportation Average recently. Or, more precisely, didn’t happen. The S&P 500, Nasdaq-100 and Dow Jones Industrial Average all breached their October lows amid this year’s pullbacks. But Transports haven’t even come close to those levels. Notice how DJT bottomed last week over 14,000. That was 1 percent above its trough near the end of the third quarter and start of the fourth quarter. Turn back the clock a little further to the late 1800s, when Charles Dow famously noticed that railroads and shipping stocks could confirm moves in the broader market. In the current case, “Dow Theory” may be providing non-confirmation of weakness . And that could be bullish. Second, consider the converging trendlines as DJT eased lower. Is that a falling wedge, another potentially bullish reversal pattern? Finally, you have the bigger picture because Transports are a classically cyclical part of the market that often benefit from a strong economy . With Covid cases falling, the U.S. reopening and the spring/summer approaching, investors may view Transports as a potential beneficiary.

DJT transports bottomed; suggest SPY will top=out on 21Feb2023DJT transports & IWM smallcaps are my favorite market leading indicators. They are the first to change market direction. Again on 24Feb, it was DJT that first made a long tail hammer…& it remained the longest. This is most probably the bottom after DJT made a diamond at impt FIB retracement level & made last capitulation down for a bear trap. Last 17 Sept 2018 DJT topped-out & SPY follows 16 months later on 13 Jan 2020. Going to 2021. DJT topped in 1 Nov2021. Projecting forward 68 weekly bars would suggest that SPY may peak out on 21 FEB 2023.

Leading indicators reversed a reversalThe reversal observed previously appears to be washed out... JNK broke down previously as expected, and exceeded target. No rebound as previously expected, but instead a further push downwards followed. MACD in bear territory. IWM , DJT and VALUG all swent further down after breaking the support that bounced off earlier. MACD crossed and deep in bear territory. Turned out suspicion was well anticipated. TIPS failed a support, went back to test but pushed further down. Bearish. TLT is still not bullish, having pushed down further. Odd. VIX spiked very hard to get a higher high, but did not close at a higher high. Indicative of bearish markets but not clear as yet. /HG Copper futures are still held in a tight range and a breakout was immediately pulled back into range. MACD is in bullish territory.
