Be careful bulls and bears alike - the DJIA and the NASDAQ Composite is at "very oversold" status per the 5-day RSI at the vtoreport:

This indicator has been pretty reliable in calling turning points in 2004 but with some of my other indicators still at neutral or even moderately overbought levels, I would definitely wait here - probably until the 5-week RSI gets to "oversold" before initiating long positions.

Interesting - the S&P 500 actually closed at 1165 today!

NY ARMS Index closed at 1.53 today - definitely a respectable reading but nowhere near close to oversold in that regard.

Per the vtoreport, 5-day RSIs and 5-week RSIs all indicating "oversold" or "very oversold."

If a bounce was to occur, then this will be the logical place to materialize.

Henry,

We are grossly oversold now. The bulls (and the fed Confused) will throw all they got at S&P 500 - 1165 and DOW 10380. Technically the support below those levels is like falling off a cliff.

Once the S&P 500 closes below 1165 - time to go to the cave with the bears and hope they are gentle.

Okay, the market got more oversold today - but the 10-day MA of the ARMS Index actually decreased. Rydex Titan & Tempest assets also still nowhere near indicating an oversold market. The % of stocks on the NYSE and NASDAQ below the 20EMA still not at a low enough percentage here either - at least not close to being at a level that I would be comfortable with going long here.

Our preliminary target to go long (good enough for a trade) is still DJIA 10,250.
