Short-term Indicant Stock Market Report – Summary

Bullish unanimity did not last long along the Quick-term cycle. Six ETF’s fell below QTI Yellow on Japan’s currency intervention. However, the stock market’s reaction to that appears to be merely technical and more or less justified some profit-taking. Nearly all short-term attributes remains supportive of the stock market bull. Today’s bearish aggression facilitated good buying opportunities, based on current configurations.

If configurations sour in favor of the stock market bear, appropriate actions will be advised herein. Right now, the stock bull remains solid.

Index Report Card Summary

The Near-term Indicant signaled no new bulls and no new bears. Click this sentence to see table leading to the charts.

The Near-term Indicant is signaling bull for all of the major non-contrarian indices. They are up by an average of 1.7% since the NTI bull signals an average of 1.4-weeks ago. That annualizes at 61.2%. The Near-term Indicant is signaling bear only for contrarian VIX. It is up 2.2% since its bear signal 1.0-weeks ago.

The Quick-term Indicant is signaling bull for all non-contrarian indices. Their performance is the same as the Near-term Indicant since the bull signals occurred, simultaneously, with prices climbing above QTI Yellow with qualifying near-term bullish attributes. The lone bear signal is for contrarian VIX which has the same performance as noted above by the Near-term Indicant.

Indicant Volume Indicators

Volume indicators need to improve their configurations to help propel the stock market bull onward and upward. Recent relationships are indeed bullish, but the short-term cyclical configurations need to be more supportive of the bull for sustainability.

Oct 31-Mon-Light volume on bearish aggression relates to simple profit-taking. More are holding than selling. The supply-demand law portends continued bullishness.

Short-term ETF Report Card, Status, and Charts

The Near-term Indicant generated no buy signals and no sell signals.

The Near-term Indicant is signaling hold for 29-ETF’s. They are up by an average of 3.2% since their buy signals an average of 2.3-weeks ago, annualizing at 75.0%.

Contrarian Funds

ETF#03-Natural Resources. The Quick-term Indicant signaled buy on Oct 21, 2011. It is up 1.7% since then, annualizing at 60.9%. The Near-term Indicant signaled buy on Oct 10, 2011. It is up 9.5% since that buy signal, annualizing at 162.9%. As stated the past few days, its Force Vector is behaving bullishly with some mild oscillations in bullish domains. It is above QTI bearish yellow. All of this is bullish in spite of today’s bearish behavior.

ETF#11-Gold and Precious Metals is up 107.3% since the QTI signaled buy on December 11, 2008. Annualized growth is at 36.7%. Bearish yellow is a good price to set stop losses for a longer-term hold position, which is at $148.12 and still rising. Relaxation remains in order, despite recent bearish aggression, since your buy price approximates $80.65 versus today’s closing price of $167.34. The Quick-term Indicant will not signal sell until interaction with QTI Yellow Curve.

The Near-term Indicant signaled buy on Oct 26, 2011, as Force catapulted itself into bullish domains and above Pressure. It is flat since that buy signal. It will be interesting if this near-term bullish cycle can hold up in the face of potential profit taking.

ETF#14-TLT-Long Government received a sell signal from the Near-term Indicant on Oct 24, 2011. It is down 1.6% since then.

Tracking from Oct 28, 2011 informal forecast. That forecast predicted TLT would fall to QTI Yellow in this near-term cycle before end Dec 2011. Price today was $113.32. QTI Yellow is $99.10. Forecast continues as Force remains below Pressure and in bearish domains. Threatening that forecast was price jumping above NTI Blue and Green today.

ETF#31-QID received a sell signal on Oct 10, 2011 from both the Near-term and Quick-term Indicant as Force fell into bearish domains. It is down 8.1% since then.

The Quick-term and Near-term Indicant signaled sell on Oct 27, 2011, for ETF#32-VXX. It is was about up 18.0% since the QTI’s prior buy signal in early August, annualizing at about 85.0%. It was up over 70.0% since the Near-term Indicant signaled buy on Jul 28, 2011, annualizing at over 280% since then. Force is plummeting. It is up 10.0% since that sell signal. QTI Yellow is resisting bearishness. A bearishly mature Force Vector is assisting that resistive behavior, but too risky to hold at this point.

Major ETF Events

Oct 31-Mon-Strong bearish behavior is not supported by short-term attributes. Configurations suggests simple profit taking even though, fundamentally, the Japanese are attempting to weaken their currencies.

Current Strategy-Short-term Indicant-Oct 31, 2011-Most, not all, short-term attributes continue favoring a bullish stock market, but keep in mind, Yellow Bears were annihilated with bullish aggression. Continue buying on bearish days, such as today.

Short-term Indicant Stock Market Report – Summary

Comments from the past few days remain in effect and repeated here. “Oscillating Force Vectors in bullish domains are increasingly supportive of bullish stock market behavior.” Quick-term bullish unanimity was attained with last Thursday’s explosive stock market bullishness, as all of the non-contrarian QTI Yellow Bears expired.

As stated this past Wednesday, relaxation, however, remains inappropriate but any paranoia behavior should be expelled from your demeanor. Vector Pressures remain in bearish domains for four non-contrarian ETF’s. Until that attribute is zero, bullish unanimity remains absent along the Short-term cycle.

In spite of all that, the heart and soul of bullish seasonality appears ready to assume its annual habit of dominating.

Near-term, Quick-term, Short-term Indicant Stock Market Details

Index Report Card Summary

The Near-term Indicant signaled no new bulls and no new bears. Click this sentence to see table leading to the charts.

The Near-term Indicant is signaling bull for all of the major non-contrarian indices. They are up by an average of 4.0% since the NTI bull signals an average of 1.0-weeks ago. That annualizes at 203.8%. The Near-term Indicant is signaling bear only for contrarian VIX. It is down 16.2% since its bear signal 0.6-weeks ago.

Indicant Volume Indicators

Both major indices remain in high interest domains, but moving lethargically. That lethargic behavior coincides with bullish stock market behavior the past two weeks, suggesting bullish spurt attributes. Prior cyclical robustness coincides with bearish aggression, supporting bearish bias. Sustainable bullish behavior requires robustness in conjunction with bullish attributes along the short-term cycle and that remains absent. In spite of limited volume support, however, too many attributes along the short-term cycle support continuation of this recent bullish behavior. Additionally, robust volume on Oct 27, 2011 coincided with dynamic bullish aggression. All of this is bullish. If the IVI cycles shift into robustness, then bullish sustainability should be expected.

Oct 28-Fri-Mediocre volume on flat behavior is meaningless. Yesterday’s comment remains prominent.

Oct 27-Thu-Solid volume aggression supports continuing bullishness.

Oct 26-Wed-Slightly above average volume on bullish behavior offers a bit more support for continuing bullishness.

Oct 25-Tue-Low volume on bearish behavior, although somewhat aggressive, is not a scary proposition to recent buy/bull signals.

Oct 24-Mon-Low volume again on mild bullishness. Volume increases is desired for obviating bullish directional intensity.

Short-term ETF Report Card, Status, and Charts

The Near-term Indicant generated no buy signals and no sell signals.

The Near-term Indicant is signaling hold for 29-ETF’s. They are up by an average of 6.1% since their buy signals an average of 1.8-weeks ago, annualizing at 175.0%.

The NTI is avoiding three-ETF’s. They are all contrarians. They are down by an average of 4.4% since their near-term sell signals an average of 1.1-weeks ago.

The Quick-term Indicant generated no buy signals and no sell signals.

The Quick-term Indicant is signaling hold for 29-ETF’s. They are up by an average of 7.6% since their buy signals an average of 6.6-weeks ago. This annualizes at 59.9%.

The Quick-term Indicant is avoiding three-ETFs. They are down by an average of 3.5% since the QTI sell signals an average of 1.0-weeks ago. These avoided funds are also contrarians.

Contrarian Funds

ETF#03-Natural Resources. The Quick-term Indicant signaled buy on Oct 21, 2011. It is up 6.5% since then, annualizing at 336.9%. The Near-term Indicant signaled buy on Oct 10, 2011. It is up 14.7% since that buy signal, annualizing at 294.7%. As stated the past few days, its Force Vector is behaving bullishly with some mild oscillations in bullish domains. It is above QTI bearish yellow. All of this is bullish.

ETF#11-Gold and Precious Metals is up 110.3% since the QTI signaled buy on December 11, 2008. Annualized growth is at 37.8%. Bearish yellow is a good price to set stop losses for a longer-term hold position, which is at $148.02 and still rising. Relaxation remains in order, despite recent bearish aggression, since your buy price approximates $80.65 versus today’s closing price of $169.62. The Quick-term Indicant will not signal sell until interaction with QTI Yellow Curve.

The Near-term Indicant signaled buy yesterday on Oct 26, 2011, as Force catapulted itself into bullish domains and above Pressure. Fundamentally, with inflation on the horizon and cheapening U.S. currencies with more and more paper money flowing into the hands of incompetence and laziness, gold should continue to rise. It is up 1.4%, annualizing at 247.4%.

All prior comments in this section remain in effect, but eliminated here for brevity purposes. You will be notified when and if such commentary requires adjustment.

ETF#14-TLT-Long Government received a sell signal from the Near-term Indicant on Oct 24, 2011. It is down 1.6% since then. As stated since then, its Force shifted south, disfiguring its bullish cycle. The Quick-term Indicant signaled sell this past Thursday well ahead of the normal interaction with the QTI bearish yellow curve. As long as the stock market is configured bullishly, this ETF is anticipated to fall to QTI bearish yellow in this bearish cycle. This forecast is unofficial as the Indicant does not forecast. However, as long as Force remains below Pressure and inside bearish domains, there is nowhere else for this fund to go. The current price is $111.46 and QTI Yellow is $98.98. QTI will continue increasing, but at a decreasing rate of increase. A drop of about $8.00 per share before Christmas would not be surprising. Keep in mind, if Force moves into bullish domains and above Pressure, this forecast is to be ignored. The Greeks and Europeans can upset this rather quickly.

ETF#31-QID received a sell signal on Oct 10, 2011 from both the Near-term and Quick-term Indicant as Force fell into bearish domains. It is down 11.0% since then.

The Quick-term and Near-term Indicant signaled sell this past Wednesday, Oct 27, 2011, for ETF#32-VXX. It is was about up 18.0% since the QTI’s prior buy signal in early August, annualizing at about 85.0%. It was up over 70.0% since the Near-term Indicant signaled buy on Jul 28, 2011, annualizing at over 280% since then. Force is plummeting. It is down 0.5% since that sell signal.

Major ETF Events

Oct 28-Fri-Flat market behavior was a good opportunity for buying. Continue doing so on bearish days as most attributes remain solidly bullish.

Oct 27-Thu-Solil bullish behavior moved remaining bearishly configured ETF’s to buys, as Force crossed into bullish domains along with other solid attributes. Bullish unanimity has now been achieved along the near-term cycle.

Oct 26-Wed-Mixed-bullish behavior highlights a confused stock market. Quite a few contrasting elements remain pervasive.

Oct 25-Tue-Stock market bearishness did not disfigure current bullish attributes along the short-term cycle.

Oct 24-Mon-Force Vectors continue fluttering in bullish domains, offering bullish support. Keep in mind, bullish unanimity remains absent.

Current Strategy-Short-term Indicant-Oct 28, 2011-Most, not all, short-term attributes continue favoring a bullish stock market, but keep in mind, Yellow Bears were annihilated with bullish aggression. Continue buying on bearish days.

Short-term Indicant Stock Market Report – Summary

Short-term Indicant Stock Market Report – Summary

Comments from the past two days remain in effect and repeated here. “Oscillating Force Vectors in bullish domains are increasingly supportive of bullish stock market behavior. However, a few ETF’s remain as Yellow Bears and therefore, a relaxed posture is inappropriate for the short-term cycle. Manage stop losses until obviations of directional intensity with a bullish bent manifest. You will know that when bullish unanimity exists. Then being lazy will be okay.”

The absence of QTI bullish unanimity is identified with ETF#13-EWH, which remains as a Yellow Bear. There are a few stragglers similarly configured. Until such configurations expire in favor of more bullish configurations, vigilant demeanor remains appropriate.

There are six-non-contrarian Yellow Bears and nine-Vector Pressures in bearish domains. Until those two attributes are zero, bullish unanimity remains absent.

The Quick-term Indicant is signaling bull for all non-contrarian indices. Their performance is the same as the Near-term Indicant since the bull signals occurred simultaneously with prices climbing above QTI Yellow with qualifying near-term bullish attributes.

Indicant Volume Indicators

Oct 25-Tue-Low volume on bearish behavior, although somewhat aggressive, is not a scary proposition to recent buy/bull signals.

Oct 24-Mon-Low volume again on mild bullishness. Volume increases is desired for obviating bullish directional intensity.

Short-term Indicant Stock Market Report – Summary

Oscillating Force Vectors in bullish domains are increasingly supportive of bullish stock market behavior. However, a few ETF’s remain as Yellow Bears and therefore, a relaxed posture is inappropriate for the short-term cycle. Manage stop losses until obviations of directional intensity with a bullish bent manifest. You will know that when bullish unanimity exists. Then being lazy will be okay.

The VIX received a bear signal today. Its Force fell below Pressure and into bearish domains. Its NTI Bullish Blue Curve collapsed and price fell below NTI Bearish Green Curve.

Short-term Indicant Stock Market Report – Summary

Force Vector slowed their bearish direction and many more started oscillating in bullish domains. Therefore, more bull/buy signals were triggered. Keep in mind, bullish unanimity remains absent and thus one should remain vigilant until configurations shift in support of being relaxed while the bull has its way.

Last Thursday’s comments remain appropriate and those two paragraphs are repeated below.

Force continues moving south. That continues offering bearish support. However, there are some minor oscillations in non-contrarian Force Vectors. For example, ETF#03-XLE’s Force Vector is resisting a bearish slope. However, it is a contrarian ETF. That is, it can be bullish in a bear stock market. This is especially true during heightened inflation.

On the other hand, ETF#20-EEM’s Force is moving aggressively to the south in valiant support of the stock market bear. This is a non-contrarian fund, but an international one. In essence, the stock market is not supporting an idea of international economic robustness. On the contrary, the stock market is currently displaying a pathetic outlook.

In spite of some remaining strongly configured bearish attributes, there were several buy signals. Keep in mind, bullish unanimity is required for bullish sustainability. In other words, those obstinate configurations supporting bullish behavior need to expire for a continuation of bullish stock market behavior.

Index Report Card Summary

The Near-term Indicant signaled ten new bulls and no new bears. Click this sentence to see table leading to the charts.

Force is oscillating in bullish domains. With dynamic bearishness and heightened volatility, none of the major indices fell below NTI Blue for an extended period. Therefore, new bull signals were triggered.

The Near-term Indicant has been signaling bull for contrarian VIX for 12.2-weeks. It is up 36.5%, annualizing at 151.9%. The NTI signaled bull for the DJU this past Thursday. It is up 1.7% since then.

The Near-term Indicant is no longer signaling bear for any of the major indices. If VIX falls below NTI Green next week, it will receive a bear signal.

The Quick-term Indicant signaled ten new bulls and no new bears for the same reason the Near-term Indicant did.

The Quick-term Indicant is signaling bull for contrarian VIX. Its performance is the same as the Near-term Indicant levels.

The Quick-term Indicant is no longer signaling any bears.

Indicant Volume Indicators

Oct 21-Fri-Volume was a bit above recent averages on bullish aggression. This new bull may originate on as a low volume one, which has occurred in the past.

Oct 20-Thu-Volume correlated with a “do nothing different.” Indecisiveness remains dominant and bearish bias accompanies that.

Oct 19-Wed-Low volume on behavior is pretty much uninformative, but is what it is. There is no need for impatience in search for what does not exist.

Oct 18-Tue-Volume increased on bullish aggression, suggesting heightened interest in the heart and soul of bullish seasonality.

Oct 17-Mon-Mediocre volume on bearish aggression is not adding bearish stimulation, but the short-term bear cycle remains in tact.

Short-term ETF Report Card, Status, and Charts

The Near-term Indicant generated eight buy signals and no sell signals.

Contrarian Funds

ETF#03-Natural Resources. The Quick-term Indicant signaled buy on Friday after the close. The Near-term Indicant signaled buy on Oct 10, 2011. It is up 7.7% since that buy signal, annualizing at 251.4%. Its Force Vector is behaving bullishly with some mild oscillation in bullish domains. It is above QTI bearish yellow.

ETF#11-Gold and Precious Metals is up 97.8% since the QTI signaled buy on December 11, 2008. Annualized growth is at 33.7%. Bearish yellow is a good price to set stop losses for a longer-term hold position, which is at $147.53 and still rising. Relaxation remains in order, despite recent bearish aggression, since your buy price approximates $80.65 versus today’s closing price of $159.52. The Quick-term Indicant will not signal sell until interaction with QTI Yellow Curve.

The Near-term Indicant signaled sell on Sep 23, 2011. It is down 0.2% since then. Force’s collapse deep into bearish domains remains ominous. Force is again moving south and fell into bearish domains this past Thursday. It would not be surprising to see an interaction with QTI Yellow in this bearish Near-term cycle.

That should occur within the next three trading days.

ETF#31-QID received a sell signal this past Monday from both the Near-term and Quick-term Indicant as Force fell into bearish domains. It is down 5.4% since then.

The Quick-term signaled buy for ETF#32-VXX on Aug 8, 2011. It is up 25.9% since then, annualizing at 126.0%. It is up 83.7% since the Near-term Indicant signaled buy on Jul 28, 2011, annualizing at 354.4%. It interacted with Green on Mar 14, 2011, but its Force Vector deserves monitoring with its newly forming bullish cycle. It continues moving in a bullish direction, but consuming significant energy from the short-bull.

Major ETF Events

Oct 21-Fri-Short-term attributes favored a continuation of a short-term bull. Do not be surprised at some bearishness the next week or two. That should enhance buying opportunities. Keep in mind, this is without volume and in the face of a bearish trend.

Oct 20-Thu-A few non-contrarian Force Vectors are oscillating in bullish domains, offering the stock market bull some hope for its resumption of dominance.

Oct 19-Wed-Non-contrarian Force continues declining, offering some support for the stock market bull.

Oct 18-Tue-Volume was up with solid bullishness. If Force starts vacillating in bullish domains, the heart and soul of bullish seasonality should start.

Oct 17-Mon-Strong bearish behavior was expected, but short-term configurations indicate the heart and soul of bullish seasonality could manifest within a week or two.

Current Strategy-Short-term Indicant-Oct 21, 2011-Force Vectors continue moving south for some ETF’s and major indices. That remains a bit supportive of the stock market bear. Relatively tight stop losses remain appropriate and especially so on new buy signals. Contrarian Force Vectors shifted back to north and that will remain a threat to the stock market bull until such time, they shift back to the south.

This is the same as yesterday. If Force starts vacillating in bullish domains and discontinues its decline, more buy/bull signals will be triggered.

Force continues moving south. That continues offering bearish support.

Near-term, Quick-term, Short-term Indicant Stock Market Details

Index Report Card Summary

The Near-term Indicant signaled no new bulls and no new bears. Click this sentence to see table leading to the charts.

As stated last Wednesday, Oct 12, 2011, “there are a few reasons why there are no bull signals. 1) No volume support. 2) Force Vectors nearing or at cyclical peaks. They are ready for a fall. 3) Negative Vector Pressure. 4) VIX contacted NTI Green on Thursday and fell well below on Friday, defying high probabilities of a solid bounce to the north. Its reaction to that will be very interesting and that interest level must be resumed next Monday.”

All of this is the same as yesterday. Number 1, above, was challenged with a jump in volume on solid bullish behavior. However, number 2, above, has manifested and Force is drifting south. Number 2 trumps number one; at least for a few more days. With respect to number 3, some Pressure points are no longer negative, but a few continue persisting in this depressed state. Finally, the VIX is vacillating around NTI Green with a noticeable resistance to contrarian bearishness.

The Near-term Indicant has been signaling bull only for contrarian VIX for 12.0-weeks. It is up 49.9%, annualizing at 216.6%.

Anti-recessionary fundamentals have reduced the fear element, but volatility remains high and with that, risks remain high.

The Near-term Indicant is signaling bear for the eleven major non-contrarian indices. They are up by an average of 2.7% since their bear signals an average of 4.7-weeks ago.

ETF#11-Gold and Precious Metals is up 98.2% since the QTI signaled buy on December 11, 2008. Annualized growth is at 33.9%.

Relaxation remains in order, despite recent bearish aggression, since your buy price approximates $80.65 versus today’s closing price of $159.87. The Quick-term Indicant will not signal sell until interaction with QTI Yellow Curve.

The Near-term Indicant signaled sell on Sep 23, 2011. It is flat since then. Force’s collapse deep into bearish domains remains ominous. Force is again moving south.

Short-term Indicant Stock Market Report - Summary

Finally, Force Vectors completed their bullish cycle and starting a new bearish cycle. Contrarians are with similar inverse configurations. These two cycles should offer evidence of the stock market’s directional intensity within a week or two.

Today’s dynamic bearish behavior was not as damaging to short-term hold signals as it could have been. Therefore, there were no sell signals. If non-contrarian Force crosses above Pressure and prices hold above NTI Green, the heart and soul of bullish seasonality has a good chance to manifest. Conversely, if contrarians, such as VIX and VXX Force struggles crossing above Pressure with prices falling below NTI Green, they will endure a bear and sell signal, respectively.

This particular cycle will be interesting, indeed. If the stock market closes bullishly by the end of this week, there is a good chance the Mid-term Indicant may align configurations in support of sustainable bullishness. If this bullish configuration manifest with volume support, then obviations of bullish directional intensity can be claimed.

Short-term Indicant Stock Market Report - Summary

As state since last Tuesday, “Force Vectors are at or very near cyclical highs. The last three such cycles triggered bearish responses. If this recent history repeats, the bear will retain dominance. If this projected impending decline in Force does not inspire the stock market bear, then the heart and soul of bullish seasonality can manifest. The mid-term cycle, however, will need to also configure in support of such bullish behavior.”

You will see in the weekly report this weekend that the Mid-term Indicant is not yet supporting the notion of sustainable bullishness.

The VIX and VXX fell below NTI Green this past Thursday. The VIX’s NTI bullish blue curve collapsed also this past Thursday. Its response to that will be interesting. Current configurations support a bullish response (a bearish stock market). Their respective Vector Pressures remain in bullish domains. That combination commonly triggers a stock market selloff. If they fall prey to bearish influence (stock market bullishness), the heart and soul of bullish seasonality should manifest.

This past Thursday’s daily report made the following statement:” … the Mid-term Force Vectors will likely cross into bullish domains this weekend, if bearish behavior does not manifest. That would trigger quite a few buy signals this weekend.” Please read next paragraph.

Amazingly, with profound bullish behavior this week, Force Vectors did not cross Pressure and/or into bullish domains with the exception of the NAS100, which is behaving congruently to an electrocardiogram’s expression of cardiac arrest minutes before stoppage. That adds to suspicions regarding the substance and sustainability of bullish behavior at this time. Force did move north and with record bullishly biased volatility, bullish stock market Force’s remain without support.

Index Report Card Summary

The Near-term Indicant signaled no new bulls and no new bears. Click this sentence to see table leading to the charts.

As stated last Wednesday, there are few reasons why there are no bull signals. 1) No volume support. 2) Force Vectors nearing or at cyclical peaks. They are ready for a fall. 3) Negative Vector Pressure. 4) VIX contacted NTI Green on Thursday and fell well below on Friday, defying high probabilities of a solid bounce to the north. Its reaction to that will be very interesting and that interest level must be resumed next Monday.

The Near-term Indicant has been signaling bull only for contrarian VIX for 11.3-weeks. It is up 22.9%, annualizing at 105.5%.

Anti-recessionary fundamentals have reduced the fear element, but volatility remains high and with that, risks remain high.

The Near-term Indicant is signaling bear for the eleven major non-contrarian indices. They are up by an average of 4.2% since their bear signals an average of 4.0-weeks ago.

The Quick-term Indicant signaled no new bulls and no new bears.

The Quick-term Indicant is signaling bull for contrarian VIX. Its performance is the same as the Near-term Indicant levels.

The Quick-term Indicant is signaling bear for all eleven non-contrarian indices. They are up by an average of 2.9% since their bear signals an average of 5.9-weeks ago.

Indicant Volume Indicators

Both major indices are robustly in high interest domains. That cyclical robustness coincides with bearish aggression, supporting bearish bias. Sustainable bullish behavior requires robustness in conjunction with bullish attributes along the short-term cycle.

Oct 14-Fri-Mediocre volume on significant bullishness should be viewed with suspicion.

Oct 13-Thu-Light volume on a non-eventful day is not inspirational to either bull or bear.

Oct 12-Wed-Again, very little volume support for bullish behavior. Remains configured with a high probability of a mere bullish spurt.

Oct 11-Tue-Again, low volume, identifying a bullish spurt at this point.

Oct 10-Mon-Very low volume on aggressive bullish behavior is not supportive of sustaining that bullish behavior.

Contrarian Funds

ETF#03-Natural Resources. The Quick-term Indicant signaled sell on Sep 2, 2011. It is up 0.6% since that sell signal. Force crossed above Pressure this past Monday and into bullish domains. Consequently, the Near-term Indicant signaled buy. It is up 4.6% since that buy signal, annualizing at 415.6%. Keep a tight stop loss if you bought. Its Force Vector is at cyclical peak and poised to shift south.

ETF#11-Gold and Precious Metals is up 102.6% since the QTI signaled buy on December 11, 2008. Annualized growth is at 35.6%. Bearish yellow is a good price to set stop losses for a longer-term hold position, which is at $147.04 and still rising. Relaxation remains in order, despite recent bearish aggression, since your buy price approximates $80.65 versus today’s closing price of $163.40. The Quick-term Indicant will not signal sell until interaction with QTI Yellow Curve.

The Near-term Indicant signaled sell on Sep 23, 2011. It is up 2.3% since then. Force’s collapse deep into bearish domains remains ominous, despite its reversal back to the north the past several days. This bullish cycle is very mature. As stated this past Monday, bearishness on the immediate horizon along the near-term cycle would not be surprising. (It has been bouncy since most of this past week. Its price is having difficulty crossing above NTI Green).

ETF#14-TLT-Long Government received a buy signal on Fri, Jul 29, 2011 from the Quick-term Indicant model. It is up 16.4% since that buy signal, annualizing at 76.5%. The Near-term Indicant signaled buy on Sep 2, 2011. It is up 1.3% since then, annualizing at 11.0%. Its Force Vector is bearishly mature with positive Pressure, suggesting its non-bearishness on the immediate horizon.

ETF#31-QID received a sell signal this past Monday from both the Near-term and Quick-term Indicant as Force fell into bearish domains. It is down 7.8% since then. Its Pressure is low and threatens a potential rebound. However, Force cycle is bearishly mature, offering potential for a bullish bounce, which implies QQQ bearishness.

The Quick-term signaled buy for ETF#32-VXX on Aug 8, 2011. It is up 16.3% since then, annualizing at 87.7%. It is up 69.7% since the Near-term Indicant signaled buy on Jul 28, 2011, annualizing at 321.8%. It will not receive a sell signal until price interacts with NTI Green. Its mature Force Vector, coupled with very high Vector Pressure configures potential for a solid bullish bounce.

Major ETF Events

Oct 14-Fri-Same as yesterday in spite of Friday’s strong bullish behavior.

Oct13-Thu-Configurations indicate bearish behavior on the immediate horizon with a 87% probability. Defying those odds favors a continuation of recent bullishness.

Oct 12-Wed-Non-contrarian Force Vectors remain at cyclical highs, while VIX, VXX, and QID are at cyclical lows. If a very high probability of solid stock market bearish expressions in the next day or two does not manifest, the bull will be inspired. Solid bearish behavior is expected, though.

Oct 11-Tue-Most Force Vectors are at cyclical highs. This has triggered bearish responses on the last three cycles. If this recent history repeats, the heart and soul of bullish seasonality will be delayed. If not, then the probability of manifestation is high.

Oct 10-Mon-Several Force Vectors crossed above Pressure and into bullish domains. Prices also crossed above NTI Bullish Blue curve. By default, buy signals had to be generated. Keep in mind the Mid-term cycle remains bearish.

Current Strategy-Short-term Indicant-Oct 14, 2011-Force Vectors are bullishly mature with low Pressure. Relatively tight stop losses remain appropriate. Contrarian Force Vectors are at cyclical minimums, suggesting non-bullishness with a high probability of bearish behavior on the immediate horizon.

If this projected impending declining in Force does not inspire the stock market bear, then the heart and soul of bullish seasonality can manifest.

The absence of volume support for recent bullishness offers elemental suspicions of recent bullish behavior. Configurations support stock market bearishness on the immediate horizon. If the bull overcomes this, a sustainable short-term bull cycle should manifest.

That combination commonly triggers a stock market selloff. If they fall prey to bearish influence (stock market bullishness), the heart and soul of bullish seasonality should manifest.

Volume 10, Issue 06 ISSN 1526 6516 QT/ST

Short-term Indicant Stock Market Report - Summary

Force Vectors for several ETF’s crossed above Pressure and into bullish domains. Therefore, buy signals were triggered. Set tight stop losses. The Force Vector cycle is bullishly mature. That coupled with low Vector Pressure could result in a short hold period. That is why stop losses should be tightened.

Keep in mind, also, today’s strong bullish behavior occurred with very little volume, suggesting volatile stock market behavior is not over. European politician’s chit-chat, alone, will not propel the stock market to the north. However, some economic data is improving, but the jury is still out.
