The long Bond ETF (TLT) has changed its character this week.
We can see in Early September, the SCTR fell below the top quartile reading of 75. The Purple trend line on the relatives strength to $SPX has been broken. So both of those are concerning. The MACD is dropping below the zero line which looks quite ominous.
The big signal today is the price. It broke the uptrend line. The RSI at the bottom is weaker than it was when the ETF made its final low.
Good trading,
