T2108 tumbled under 50% again to close at 44.4%. The S&#038;P 500 fell 1.0%; the index is just barely clinging to support formed by the post-taper low shown below. It should have occurred to me earlier that this line would become a major battleground before the 200DMA.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_21381\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21381\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_SP500.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_SP500.png\" alt=\"The S&amp;P 500 has erased all its post-tapering gains\" width=\"550\" height=\"375\" class=\"size-full wp-image-21381\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_SP500.png 550w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_SP500-300x204.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-21381\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The S&#038;P 500 has erased all its post-tapering gains<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>What a difference a month makes: the narrative has gone from&#8230;&#8221;Yay! The Fed is tapering indicating its confidence in U.S. growth&#8221;, to&#8230; &#8220;Oh no! The Fed is tapering and threatening to explode emerging markets! The contagion will destroy the global economy!&#8221; The happy post-tapering gains are gone now, but all it will take is a simple re-adjustment in the narrative to get spirits moving up and to the right again.<\/p>\n<p>As promised, I faded a resurgence in volatility. Once before the Fed and again after <a href=\"http:\/\/federalreserve.gov\/newsevents\/press\/monetary\/20140129a.htm\" target=\"_blank\">the Fed announced it is full steam ahead on tapering<\/a>. I reloaded on iPath S&#038;P 500 VIX ST Futures ETN (VXX) put options but was not able to get put options on ProShares Ultra VIX Short-Term Fut ETF (UVXY) at my bid. If volatility takes yet another spike upward, UVXY put options are my next target. As a reminder, I am betting on an expectation for a post-Fed collapse in volatility. This is independent of the bear\/bull trading bias on the S&#038;P 500.<\/p>\n<p>The trading bias remains bearish simply because the S&#038;P 500 cracked 50DMA support. The downside target is the 200DMA. In between, I am willing to bet on bounces. Today, it was a quasi-oversold bounce. Tomorrow, a bounce should come from support and an over-extension of the index below its lower-Bollinger Band (BB). If T2108 hits official oversold (20% or below), the bias switches to bullish, and I will likely get aggressive. Note that I did NOT add to my small SSO calls on today&#8217;s extension of the sell-off. I will fade rallies from here that approach the 50DMA (now) resistance.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the whole issue with the collapse in the Turkish currency, the lira, takes me back to last year when nearby Cyprus was causing a panic. In March, I even wrote about the fears of financial contagion in &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/seekingalpha.com\/article\/1281481-cyprus-low-volatility-and-risky-plans\" target=\"_blank\">Cyprus: Low Volatility And Risky Plans<\/a>.&#8221; I concluded with the following:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Through it all, traders must keep in mind BOTH the bearish and bullish opportunities that renewed volatility present. After all, the Cyrpus crisis could well go the way of all the other past eurozone crisis\u2026 another big dip and buying opportunity that gets smaller and smaller in the rearview mirror. In other words, do not chase panics downward and keep position sizes small.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This is what I now feel about Turkey. No one even bothers mentioning Cyprus <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eubusiness.com\/news-eu\/cyprus-economy.tdd\" target=\"_blank\">less than a year later<\/a> after the EU bailed out the country. Something tells me it will be the same for Turkey although it will be Turkey&#8217;s own central bank doing the bailing (or at least trying to do so). At some point, the currency will stabilize and folks will look back in retrospect and wonder how they missed the buying opportunity. So, baby steps, I decided to start nibbling on USD\/TRY. I am kicking myself that I did not think trading this currency pair earlier. A simple stop limit ahead of the central bank position would have delivered a nice short position that would have been very profitable within a minute. Interestingly, the market has already faded the central bank&#8217;s move. Yet the reversal created its own intraday climactic top. <\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_21384\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21384\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_USDTRY-intraday.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_USDTRY-intraday.png\" alt=\"An 11% range from a panic move higher to the central bank inspired sudden reversal\" width=\"550\" height=\"208\" class=\"size-full wp-image-21384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_USDTRY-intraday.png 550w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_USDTRY-intraday-300x113.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-21384\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">An 11% range from a panic move higher to the central bank inspired sudden reversal<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_21385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21385\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_USDTRY.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_USDTRY.png\" alt=\"The lira&#039;s troubles started getting moving in May, 2013 when taper talk quaked all emerging markets\" width=\"550\" height=\"208\" class=\"size-full wp-image-21385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_USDTRY.png 550w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/140129_USDTRY-300x113.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-21385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The lira&#8217;s troubles started getting moving in May, 2013 when taper talk quaked all emerging markets<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<strong>Source: FXCM.com<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>The first chart is an intraday chart showing the recent drama in the currency. Traders clearly panicked in a massively climactic top just ahead of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/2014\/01\/28\/us-turkey-centralbank-rates-idUSBREA0R1W420140128\" target=\"_blank\">the central bank&#8217;s unexpectedly large rate move<\/a>. I am guessing the rapid move forced the bank&#8217;s hand to do something equally dramatic:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The bank raised its overnight lending rate to 12 percent from 7.75 percent, its one-week repo rate to 10 percent from 4.5 percent, and its overnight borrowing rate to 8 percent from 3.5 percent &#8211; all much sharper moves than economists had forecast.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The second chart is a daily chart to show how long trouble has been bubbling. Notice how the chart went parabolic toward the end &#8211; a classic sign of a top. <\/p>\n<p>At current rates, I can afford to wait out a small position.
