This is a new chart I will be adding to my weekly commentary. My concentration has always been on the S&P 500 Index, but I realized that I needed to broaden my scope somewhat to include other segments of the the broad market, and this is my first effort... Read More

The OEX and Dow lost short-term BUY signals on Monday and the NDX followed today, having switched out of a ST PMO BUY signal. I thought it was time to do a review of the Scoreboard indexes, so their charts are below... Read More

Last week certain indicators had me looking for a short-term market top, and on Wednesday it looked as if it had arrived. But no. On Thursday the market moved to new rally highs on volume that wasn't too little or too much, so I thought that looked like a pretty solid breakout... Read More

This will be fairly brief today, as I am in the process of moving to a new home and it's a bit crazy over here. It's important to note the new ST PMO BUY signal, which occurred on a PMO positive crossover on the SPX daily chart... Read More

The new Long-Term Trend Model (LTTM) BUY signals triggered on the SPX yesterday (3/4) and on the NDX today (3/5). We are probably seeing these just in time for a pullback or correction ahead. The Dow seems to agree, as it generated a new ST PMO SELL signal... Read More
