Yesterday, we said "Today the TICK closed at -270 and TRIN at 1.60, which is a bullish combination and suggests tomorrow could be an up day. The "Buying Climax" day of 11/9 had volume of 1.72 million shares and to break above the 11/9 high volume would need to be 1.55m or higher, which is unlikely. Most likely, the 11/9 high will be tested tomorrow, but volume most likely will be less than 1.55m, setting up a bearish scenario. Pattern forming could be 'Three Drives to Top' which has downside target to where pattern began, which is near the 350 SPY range." Today's test of the 11/9 "Buy Climax" came in with volume of 68M and way short what was need for a confirmed breakout; that suggests that this breakout could fail. Today's TICK closed at +246 and bearish, but not sure if its bearish enough to start the pullback. It's common for signals to come in later in the week and Friday's seem to have the best signals. Next week looks down. Short-term neutral for now.

Yesterday, we said "There can be a short term pullback, but ultimately market will move higher. Intermediate-term still appears bullish and suggests any pullback should be bought." Having said that, above are the VIX and the SPY. When both are up, it suggests the market may be near a short-term high, and today both where up. The VIX and the SPY can be up together for several days before a pullback can begin (noted on chart in late August). Today's break to new highs doesn't appear the one to chase. More evidence that a pullback may be not far off. Join us on twitter.

The last time we showed this chart was 11/23. The chart above is the daily GLD (ETF for Gold). We have marked in red the "Selling Climax" days and in blue the test of the "Selling Climax" days. On 11/23, the test of the "Selling Climax" day of 11/9 came and, to complete the bullish signal, GLD needs to close above the "Selling Climax" low (173.64). As of this reporting, the close is about 3 points higher. If and when GLD close above 173.64, it will complete the buy signal. Impulse wave coming, but need to be patient. Long GDX on 10/9/20 at 40.78.
