TradingMarkets mid-day movers
Lack of catalysts brings choppy trading. Crude oil
futures fall by 1.4% to $60.30.
Thursday‘s
market action created 3 consecutive closes in the same direction and 3
consecutive intraday higher highs on both the SPX and NDX
(explanations below). These are both bearish signals and mark
a coming pullback. It will be interesting to see if we get more
bearish signals this week (click
here for more info).

3 Consecutive Closes Same
Direction– Three consecutive higher closes many times leads to a
short-term quiet market over the next few days when the market is above its 200
day ma. When it’s below, 3 consecutive higher closes has been an excellent time
to enter short positions.
The opposite is true for 3 consecutive lower
closes. When its occurred above the 200 day ma, it’s been a good time to be a
buyer. Below the 200 day, its been a good place to lock in short profits.
3
Higher Highs In A Row and 3 Lower Lows In A Row– The same tactics
applied to 3 consecutive closes in the same direction apply here. 3 higher highs
identifies a market that is overbought, especially when its below its 200 day
ma. 3 consecutive lower lows is an excellent time to be looking for long
positions when the market is above its 200 and to be locking in short positions
when its below its 200 day.
