Stock Market Setting Up...But Gaps, 20's/50's Dead Ahead... / Stock-Markets / Stock Index Trading
By: Jack_Steiman
When markets sell off roughly 10% off the top, it's extremely important to see how oscillators set up once the selling calms down. To look at how the daily charts will set up once some buying comes in. Watching the stochastics and MACD in particular to see if they can cross fast line over slow line which is bullish. Off deeply compressed levels we are seeing some nice crosses happen. This in it of itself does not guarantee that things will turn up and shoot higher from here but it does show good action and tells us the worst of this correction is likely over. There are headaches dead ahead that normally would give the market problems so there is no go out and buy 100% of your portfolio dollars signal here.

Stock Market Sentiment Showing Fear... / Stock-Markets / Stock Index Trading
By: Jack_Steiman
A while back, when I spoke about the need for the market to move lower based on sentiment extremes, I warned that fear would kick in hard and fast and that it wouldn't take long before the bears start to ramp up thus bringing the sentiment issue to a close. In fact, it would likely lead to having too many bears.
