Chart

9/27 – The major indices, following a large opening rally, which quickly faded, finished slightly lower to mixed with the following closes: DJIA – 125.82; S&P 500 – 7.75; and the Nasdaq Comp. +  26.58. 

Review & Looking ahead – Good news, bad news,  Tuesday, the S&P etched a 61 handle rally in the first 11 minutes and that was it. Normally, a 61 handle rally would be considered a good up day.  We have now had two change in trend windows where the market had a weak day leading into the window and then had a strong opening the next day.  From a psychological point of view, this is an indication that the sheep are aggressively looking for a reversal, which usually leads to a failed pattern. 

Looking ahead – We are now at the end of our 9/27 AC change in trend window.  Overnight, the S&P futures are testing Tuesday’s low. We would like to see a lower opening and then a reversal to the upside in the first hour.  If the market is making new lows after the first hour, stand aside. Our next change in trend window is 9/28 AC.  BTW, Tuesday was the sixth consecutive down day for the S&P 500.  The market seldom goes more than six consecutive days in one direction. 

 Please see details below.  

The Now Index has moved back to the BUY ALERT ZONE.  This is a cautionary indication that there is a moderate imbalance of too many short.

This is not an outright buy signal.
