An Updated Look at the Daily Chart of the YM Emini Futures - Sunday March 7, 2010

We are at a crucial area for the U.S. Stock Market. Focusing on the YM we made a high for the year on 1/19/2010 at 10687 followed by a Three Black Crows formation on the daily chart that took us down to 10111. In those three days we erased all the gains made since 11/09/09. Since the Three Black Crows pattern we have formed an inverted head and shoulders on the daily chart that has a target of 10817. This target, if hit, would take the YM to new highs for the year.

On Friday March 5, 2010 we broke out in price on every index and over the neckline of the Inv H&S on the S&P 500, SPY, ES and OEX (my leading index). The YM/Dow Cash/ DIA have a more slanted up neckline so while price broke out – it did not snap the neckline convincingly on the YM. At any rate Friday was a breakout but it lacked one key thing – VOLUME. Simply, there was none. Not the type you want to see on a breakout like this anyway.

Backtrack for a minute: After we made the Three Black Crows on 1/24/2010 I did a blog post updating the daily chart. In that post I said: "I do not expect the YM to get back over 10566. I will be targeting 10309 – 10430 for swing shorts." The first time up to that zone YM hit a high of 10434 and then sold off to 10172. However since it took so long (a month) for us to even test this area again when we got back to it I was expecting a little higher and labeled the new zone as 10470 – 10560. This is the area I have been wanting for swing shorts. Friday we hit 10561 on the dot and sold off (albeit only 24 pts). Nevertheless we are in the key zone I have been expecting.

So where do we go from here and what will I be keying on? I can see three potential scenarios playing out:

A. Futures open on Sunday and sell immediately. We open the cash session Monday well off the Friday close (near the highs) and keep selling. Reversal is on.

B. Monday we make a doji type day. Tuesday we reverse down for an Abandoned Baby or Evening Star formation. This scenario seems most likely for the bearish case.

C. Price goes and hits the 10817 Inv H&S target on the YM. Most likely the weekly chart would have negative divergence and this would be a shortable target hit.

Right now I am positioned nicely short in my 10470 – 10560 range and am anticipating Scenario B (or similar – a reversal in this area with no new high being made) playing out. If we are going to go make new highs (Scenario C) there needs to be an influx of volume to the upside. I will be keying on two things that could potentially take me out of my swing short positions: A move over the yearly high at 10687 or a close on the daily chart over 10625. Until one of those two things happens I am happily swing short. Because this week is crucial and things should happen fast from here I will most likely do another daily chart update within the next few days.

Also please remember the paragraph in the original October 25th daily chart update which is worth repeating here: Keep in mind that money in trading is made not by being right in your predictions but by being on the right side of the price action. This is just what I see happening. It could or could not happen. I will not try to force my will on the market. The best traders I know don't care what the market is going to do...they just know what THEY are going to do if the market does A or if the market does B. Much better to be prepared to act on what the market does than to try to predict what it is going to do. All that being said the above is my forecast of how I see price action playing out from here.

Trade smart and trade well!

In the 1/24/10 daily chart update I said: "I do not expect the YM to get back over 10566. I will be targeting 10309 - 10430 for swing shorts." The high FTU was 10434 and then we sold nicely down to a low of 10172 Thursday. I have been saying that while I still don't expect it back above 10566 I think the range is probably a little higher to look for swing shorts.

YM: Getting the third higher high this morning mentioned in Thursday's update and hit the lower part of my 10470 - 10560 range for CIT. This range IMO is it. Swing traders be ready - area for getting swing shorts has arrived. NFP this morning - BE READY.

From Thursday YM: Expecting a move to the higher area 10470 - 10560 I have been wanting. Swing Traders pay attention here. 12 pts shy of 10470 Wednesday and selling. ES did hit my key 1124.5 though. Anticipating one more higher high and then that is IT - Goodnight sweet horse.

From Thursday CL: Still expecting CIT in the 79.7 - 82.7 range. Hit the midpoint of this range Wednesday. A close over the midpoint and expecting the higher end of this range to be tested.

In the 1/24/10 daily chart update I said: "I do not expect the YM to get back over 10566. I will be targeting 10309 - 10430 for swing shorts." Monday the YM made a high at 10434 and dumped NICELY to 10356. Tuesday the YM sold from the 10412 mentioned as the line in the sand for upside down through the 10356 and all the way to prior resistance turned support at 10260.

Have to admit though that I am feeling a little left behind by the selling right from the top of my key area mentioned in January. I did take some short in my range (10309 - 10430) but not nearly as much as I would have gotten if I wasn't now expecting a little higher. Obviously at this point it looks like I should have loaded up. Sometimes you just have to leave well enough alone - my original analysis has been spot on so far!

YM: Expecting price to revisit the scene of the crime (FOMC A/H discount rate cut) which is 10370 or so. In the 1/24/10 daily chart update I said this: "I do not expect the YM to get back over 10566.

My view that the high of the year has already been printed still stands.

CL: Closed out the swing short on CL when 76.60 gave support for the 3rd time. Exit was 77.28 average price. Am targeting the 79.70 - 82.70 to try again. Still expecting an eventual 57.50 test.

From Thursday: CL: Continues to show strength - found support at 76.60 almost perfectly on Wednesday. Need a close under that Thursday or we might abandon the trade.

From Wednesday: CL: Have nearly a full position now (7/8) filled. Oil acting stronger than anticipated though the way it closed over 77 Tuesday. Need a close on the daily under 76.60 in the next two days and not a close over the previous high at 78.04. If CL can't get back under 76.60 and hold then anticipating a move up to 79.70 - 82.70. CL and YM look identical over the last few weeks - left shoulder and head of a potential inv h&s forming. If YM moves up to the area mentioned in the 1/24/2010 blog post for swing short (see above) then odds are CL goes to the 79.70 - 82.70 area. Either way expecting eventual 57.50 test on CL. Let's see what the next couple days bring.

TraderSmarts Numbers will Resume on Thursday February 11, 2010

There will be no TraderSmarts Numbers for Wednesday February 10th, 2010. As long as I am feeling better, and I expect to be, they will resume on Thursday February 11, 2010.

CL: CL made a high of 74.15 Tuesday. As I have stated numerous times I'm expecting a move back to 75/76 to be a shortable area. Eventual target on CL is 57.50. This is all discussed in the previous subscriber updates and on the blog. Just scroll down from the main blog page to review, etc.

In the meantime - trade smart and trade well!

CL: In Friday's update on CL I said Anybody swing short oil from the 77/78 area look to take some off in the 72-70 area and add back in the 75-76 area to better cost basis. I covered another 1/4 of the CL position at 70.70 on Friday leaving me with 1/2 left swing short. I am done touching the trade until I either add back in higher or pair out the rest near the target of 57.50.

This following was my note on oil from yesterday - Wednesday February 3, 2010:

"CL: Anybody swing long oil from the 1/28/2010 update should be thinking about closing it in the 77/78 target area. My thoughts on oil are this: Move back to 77/78 (which we are getting). Then test of 57.50 area with ebbs and flows along the way. The caveat to this is if we get over 78 and hold there is a good chance of making one final high and if this happens targeting the 88 area. My inclination is to short the 77/78 area and play for the CIT. Either way expecting 57.50 area on oil to be tested."
