10am update - breaking into the 1650s

The main indexes are higher by around 1%, although the Trans/R2K are +1.3/1.5%. VIX is naturally lower by 4%. Bulls look set for further gains across the next day or two. Precious metals are higher, especially Silver, +4%.

Summary

*special note...

There are some VERY interesting issues right now with the weekly/monthly charts, but more on those..across the day.

Suffice to say, we're seeing a stupid lurch higher to start a short week. I've little doubt the QE will help prop up this nonsense across ALL of today..and into tomorrow.

I most certainly will not be re-shorting the opening gains. I've seen this picture before, and it rarely works out well for the bears.

Despite the gains..a red candle....and the 10MA should be 'the wall' to contain this latest nonsense.

*note the lower weekly bol..jumps..into the upper 1570s.

10.36am... a bit of minor chop...enticing a few bears..but I am not biting.

If we saw 5 waves down..across 3 weeks, then a corrective bounce is going to take at least 1..maybe even 2 weeks! The notion that this is going to fail today...I don't think so.
