My running assumption has been that T2108 would begin the run-up implied in the chart below. T2108 has now been overbought, above 70%, for 27 trading days. The S&#038;P 500 has gained 3.2% during this overbought period.

Most bets are off if T2108 closes below 70% and ends this overbought period. I have learned from past history that the end of overbought periods can start a period of significant selling pressure. This behavior is partially why my revised T2108 trading rules dictate waiting out the overbought period before getting bearish. I am however prepared to stay flexible given the last overbought period was in the summer of 2014.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33901\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-33901\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/160407_T2108.png\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33901\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/160407_T2108.png\" alt=\"T2108 has quickly dropped from lofty to the borderline.\" width=\"550\" height=\"375\" class=\"size-full wp-image-33901\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/160407_T2108.png 550w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/160407_T2108-300x205.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-33901\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">T2108 has quickly dropped from lofty to the borderline.<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>I am particularly concerned because the Japanese yen (FXY) continues to strengthen.
