*Comment/Feb01: SandP is in a bullish configuration. The 92-96 true bull buy signal has been generated and is holding (joined today with a 35-39 buy signal). The 36-month MAV sell signal has failed again. I am now long this market ($4100 entry). No stop loss for now but will consider closing the position if the price closes below 3990 two days in a row.
HUI, on 35-39 BUY, onpath, notxxed, 58 days, +22.27% (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 on BUY; 92-96 on BUY; 218-222 on SELL; current $262.12)
*comment/Jan04: HUI SKI configuration is bullish. The resistance at $230 has been finally broken to the upside. The next target is $273ish, then $297. The $230 level is now acting as support.
$NDX - Nasdaq, on 35-39 BUY, onpath, xxed, 4 days, +1.62% (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 breaking to SELL; 92-96 crossed to BUY; 218-222 on SELL; current $12363)
*comment/Feb01: The chart is transitioning to a bullish configuration. The resistance level at $12K has been broken out. The 92-96 index bought for a double buy with the 35-39 index which is on the path of trades. We could see a run to the $13.5K level quickly. Selling the 35-39 index in the next two weeks (below $11.5K) would be a problem.
$RUT - Russell 2000, on 92-96 BUY, onpath, xxed, 11 days, +5.74% (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 breaking to SELL; 92-96 breaking to SELL; 218-222 on SELL; current $1960)
*comment/Feb01: The SKI configuration is bullish. The double 35-39/92-96 signal was generated and it is holding. The bearish trendline is already broken out and it all seems bullish. I am looking for a long entry.
$TNX - 10Y yield, on 92-96 BUY onpath, notxxed(true), juxtaposed, 307 days, +117.76% (also, 16-20 on BUY; 35-39 to BUY 3.5/+2.94% or higher; 92-96 breaking to SELL; 218-222 on BUY; current 3.4%)
*comment/Feb01: The 10yy is in a bull market but it is in a late stage and everything is set to end soon. 3.375% is an important support level and if broken down we could see a quick drop down to 2.8%ish. If that doesn't happen we could see a trading range between 3.4% and 3.9% for a while. To avoid the end of the bull market a sharp rally needs to start at once and replicate the run that we have seen between the Aug and Nov 2022 (not expected).
XAU, on 35-39 BUY, onpath, notxxed, 58 days, +21.37% (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 on BUY; 92-96 on BUY; 218-222 on SELL; current $136.1)
*comment/Jan04: XAU is in a SKI bullish configuration. The life run low has marked the exact bottom. The resistance at the $120-125 area was finally broken through. The next target is $140ish (done) then $170ish. The $127 level now acts as support.
ASA, on 92-96 BUY, onpath, notxxed(true), 18 days, +7.16% (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 on BUY; 92-96 on BUY; 218-222 on SELL; current $16.76)
*comment/Jan06: 92-96 generated a true buy signal together with the $15 resistance being smashed through. Very bullish. Targets $16.5-17.0 (done) then $18.7 then $23.
Bitcoin, on 92-96, onpath, xxed, 17 days, +12.02% (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 on BUY ; 92-96 on BUY; 218-222 on BUY; current $23736
*comment/Feb01: BTC is in a bullish configuration but it needs more time to consolidate. The 218-222 bought back which is bullish, now it needs to hold. $25K is the resistance. If I bought the 35-39 signal (as I was thinking at the time) I would sell at $25K and then look to buy back after a correction.
COPX (copper miners ETF), on 35-39 BUY, onpath, notxxed(true), 58 days, +27.51% (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 on BUY; 92-96 on BUY; 218-222 breaking to BUY; current $41.9)
*comment/Dec11: COPX is in a bullish constellation. I am still not sure of the long-term implications of the recent SKI signals. If a recession is looming and the SandP is bearish I do not know how the COPX can be bullish. Let's see what happens.
NEW/Jan13: Today we hit $41.0 which is above the $38 target that I used to mention in my December blogs. The action looks like a breakout above an important resistance so, considering the bullish SKI structure I think it is time to start looking for a long entry. I expect the test of $38 breakout and will be looking to go long around there.
DXY (dollar index), last signal 92-96 SELL, 41 days,
-3.2% (also, 16-20 on BUY; 35-39 on SELL; 92-96 on SELL; 218-222 on BUY; current $101.16)
*comment/Dec15: The longest (by far) DXY bull in 50 years is over. The SKI structure is turning bearish. My target at 103 was hit today and should represent support. This support emanates from the bottom of May 2021 and is the last defence before the bear market takes over. I expect a bounce to sell the 16-20 (rise to $106ish) which should be used to start shorting.
NEW/Dec31: The SKI structure is now outright bearish. So far no strength has been shown in order to sell the 16-20 index. The $103 critical level is being hit again. It needs to hold or $100 becomes the target.
NEW/Jan04: $103 holding so far. I am still looking for that $106 target to be hit.
NEW/Jan06: The 16-20 index strongly rejected the rise after $106 was approached. Seems like $103 will be tested again and if it doesn't hold the next target is $100.
NEW/Jan13: $103 didn't hold so I expect the 218-222 index, the last remaining piece of the bull market, to be tested soon ($100-101 currently and rising). The end of the month looks like the decision time.
NEW/Jan20: Since my last comment DXY continued its slow decline towards the 218-222 index. The touch/break of it will probably mark some kind of a low but the SKI structure is now deep in the bear territory and I expect this index to sell soon and DXY to fall down to $99 (in a couple of months).
GDX, on 35-39 BUY, onpath, notxxed(true), 58 days, +22.81% (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 on BUY; 92-96 on BUY; 218-222 on SELL; current $32.74)
*comment/Jan27: The chart is in a bullish configuration. The first target at $33.5ish has been hit. Consolidation is underway. The 16-20 index is rising support (currently $30ish.)
GDXJ, on 35-39 BUY, onpath, notxxed(true), 58 days, +21.3% (also, 16-20 breaking to BUY; 35-39 on BUY; 92-96 on BUY; 218-222 on SELL; current $39.86)
*comment/Jan27: The chart is in a bullish configuration. The first target at $41ish has been hit. Consolidation is underway. The 16-20 index is rising support (currently $38ish).
GLD, on 35-39 BUY, onpath, notxxed(true), 56 days, +11.13% (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 on BUY; 92-96 on BUY; 218-222 to NOT BUY 180.66/-0.56% or lower; current $181.61)
*comment/Dec31: The GLD chart structure is now bullish. The 35-39 and the 92-96 indexes have bought and are holding which implies that the bottom is in. We didn't get the weakness when needed for a transition to a true bull market. That setup is now gone. 16-20 and 35-39 signals are now in charge of what happens so let's wait and see how the situation develops. $168-170 is resistance, and $162 is support. The target on the upside is $176ish. Support is around $164.
NEW/Jan04: Today we hit the 50% Fibo of the whole 2020-2022 correction but momentum might carry us to $175-177 before a correction starts.
NEW/Jan13: The momentum did take us to the next target. Time for some consolidation. If the price keeps exploding like the last week I will not like it and might take some profit.
NEW/Jan20: The price keeps blowing through every resistance level. The next target is $185 ($2000+ spot). If we hit it quickly the 218-222 index will buy but I am afraid that this will be a signal for some serious correction before the bull resumes (down to $1850).
NEW/Jan27: The resistance level (218-222 index) is being hit. It should cause a consolidation/correction at least to touch the 16-20 index (currently $175ish).
SLV, on 35-39 BUY, onpath, notxxed(true), 68 days, +23.63% (also, 16-20 to NOT SELL 21.89/-0.86% or lower; 35-39 on BUY; 92-96 on BUY; 218-222 on SELL; current $22.08)
*comment/Dec28: The SKI structure is bullish. The target is $23.5ish. The short-term resistance is 22.3ish, support is $20.0-20.5. It seems like SLV will need a correction before it will be able to break the resistance.
NEW/Jan20: The above-mentioned resistance at $22.3 has been firm for two weeks now. I expect it to be broken soon and then a quick rally to $23.5 ($26 spot) should start. This will buy the 218-222 index and break out the downtrend line emanating from the 2021 top.
NEW/Jan25: Resistance at $22.3 is still holding. The 16-20 buy signal executed yesterday should provide the fuel for a new try to overcome this obstacle. The alternative is a 35-39 sell signal (below $21) which then blurs the short-term picture and requires it to mark the bottom or a longer correction might take place (not expected).
TIP, 35-39 SELL executed today (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 breaking to BUY; 92-96 breaking to BUY; 218-222 on SELL, current $109.38)
*comment/Dec11: TIPs are in bearish configuration but the tide is turning. I think that $114 is the target on the upside, $105 should act as support.
NEW/Dec28: 16-20 buy signal has been generated. If I was trading TIPs I'd probably go long this signal (35-39 sell as a stop loss).
NEW/Jan20: If I bought that 16-20 buy signal mentioned above I'd had taken a profit of around $109 and waited to see if the 92-96 buy signal is going to generate. Sideways to down movement in the next three weeks could lead to a powerful triple buy signal that would mean all clear for the gold bull to shift to a higher gear.
NEW/Jan27: A 35-39 index sell signal is approaching. This signal opens up a possibility for a double 35-39/92-96 index buy signal that would be very bullish. A sharp drop down to $106ish would open up the gate for a super bullish triple buy signal.
NEW/Feb01: The 35-39 index sold, as expected. This signal opens up a possibility for a double 35-39/92-96 index buy signal (see the post above).
TLT, on 35-39 BUY, onpath, notxxed(true), 42 days, +2.29% (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 to SELL 106.94/-1.15% or lower; 92-96 to NOT BUY 108.02/-0.15% or lower; 218-222 on SELL; current $108.18)
*comment/Dec11: TLT is in bearish configuration but the tide is turning. The bottom might be in but we will not be sure before the 92-96 buys (which could take weeks). $101 should act as support.
NEW/Dec28: 16-20 buy signal has been generated. If I was trading TLT I'd probably go long this signal (35-39 sell as a stop loss).
NEW/Jan20: I was right about that 16-20 buy signal mentioned above. At this point, I would take the profit. A setup is now there to generate some truly bullish signals in the next two-three weeks.
NEW/Jan27: A 35-39 sell signal is approaching. If it happens it will open the door for a bullish double 35-39/92-96 buy signal. A sharp drop down to $99ish would create a condition for a super bullish triple buy signal.
UCO (crude oil ETF), on 35-39 BUY, 10 days, -9.07% (also, 16-20 breaking to BUY; 35-39 to SELL 25.01/-10.29% or lower; 92-96 on SELL; 218-222 on SELL; current $27.88)
*comment/Dec01: The UCO is in bearish configuration. I have no short-term expectations, it can go either way. $25 is firm support, and $35 is strong resistance.
NEW/Dec11: We are at significant support and the 218-222 index sold. I take that as a bearish sign. This signal is actionable (short side) but I would wait until two closes under $25 or a new 16-20 sell signal before a 218-222 buy signal.
NEW/Dec15: I was right not to go short last week. The 218-222 sell signal caused a short-term rally. If the 218-222 buys back everything will go back to neutral. Having said that, my statement from the last week stays firm, the 16-20 sell signal before the 218-222 buy signal is a selling point. Another selling point is two consecutive closes under $25.0.
NEW/Dec28: The signals are approaching. Let's see the order first and then decide what to do.
NEW/Jan20: So, the support at $25 held and the rebound generated a 35-39 buy signal which could be followed by a 92-96 buy signal. The downtrend line has been broken out and the chart is resolving in a bullish manner. If that is true and if the TLT chart generates a buy signal together with the S and P I will go long UCO.
NEW/Feb01: The SandP bought but the UCO is struggling to buy the 92-96. I am staying put, it is not clear what is happening with the oil market.
URA (uranium stocks ETF), on 35-39 BUY, 14 days, +6.81% (also, 16-20 on SELL; 35-39 on BUY; 92-96 crossed to BUY; 218-222 on SELL; current $23.52)
*comment/Dec16: I was right not trusting the 92-96 true buy. It has sold and the 35-39 sold too for a double sell signal. That seems dangerous. The potential for a crash is significant (to $13ish) but before that $18 is an important support.
NEW/Jan13: A true 35-39 signal has been generated. If the 92-96 buys the structure might turn bullish but for now, I am just watching. $23 is the most important resistance level. $18.0 is the support level.
NEW/Jan20: Like many other charts the URA is working towards a bullish resolution. The reason that I didn't trust the 92-96 buy signal in October is now behind us, the price rose above $22. If a 92-96 buy signal can be generated above $23 the whole chart will turn very bullish. I have a bunch of U positions that I bought back in 2021 when the URA price was at $18ish so I am just watching.
NEW/Feb01: The 92-96 bought and at the same time the resistance line is being broken through. If the price can stay above $23 for a few more days we have a breakout.
USERX, on 92-96 BUY, onpath, notxxed(true), 19 days, +2.74%; run pattern in-progress 3D/2U/+1.02%perday; xxing=on_off_off (also, 16-20 breaking to BUY; 35-39 on BUY; 92-96 on BUY; 218-222 on SELL; current $10.49)
*comment/Jan04: USERX true bull signal has been generated. Notice how today's close was exactly on $10.28 the mega-important level that I have been talking about for the last 10 months (thank you Jeff for pointing this out). Every important move since 2008 has started or stopped at this level. Simultaneously with generating this 92-96 signal and breaking the $10.28 level the price closed above the 200 days MAV for the first time since May 2022. Also, the MACD crossed over today. This all looks very bullish. The first target is $10.78 then $11.56 then $12.33. The short-term support is around 9.5ish.
NEW/Jan06: The price surged above $10.28. That is an important milestone. If in the next few days, the price hits 10.78 I expect some consolidation/correction to take place.
NEW/Jan13: We are very close to that $10.78 target. Some consolidation is in order.
NEW/Jan20: The consolidation is in progress. The 16-20 support is currently at $10ish and rising. The $10.28 important level is being tested from above and holding so far. I expect probably one more test before we are headed towards $10.78 and above ($11.56 next, then $12.33).
NEW/Feb01: So, we got that test of the $10.28 level again and it seems it has held. Now we need the rise over $10.71 for a new leg up to start.
Australian XGD, on 35-39 BUY, onpath, notxxed(true), 65 days, +29.74% (also, 16-20 breaking to BUY; 35-39 on BUY; 92-96 on BUY; 218-222 on SELL; current $6401)
*comment/Feb01: The XGD chart configuration is bullish. The 16-20 index is being hit and we could expect support to kick in soon. For a new leg up $6800 needs to be broken out. I am 80% long.
