Now I am right back to neutral.<\/p>\n<p>I was trying to get ahead of what looked to be a recovery from &#8220;close enough&#8221; to oversold conditions and chose not to wait, as I usually do, for confirmation. Instead, AT40 (T2108), the percentage of stocks trading above their respective 40-day moving averages (DMAs), plunged right back to &#8220;close enough&#8221; oversold levels. My favorite technical indicator closed the day at 31.8%. This level is not only a new 2017 low, but also it is a post-election low. AT200 (T2107), the percentage of stocks trading above their respective 200DMAs, fared even worse. AT200 closed at a new 16-month low! Together, these indicators tell me the market&#8217;s internals are very weak and NOT in recovery mode. Sellers managed to pull off a rare rally rejection. So it is no surprise then to see in parallel that the S&#038;P 500 (SPY) lost 1.5% on its way to a new 5-week low. The index effectively closed the bullish gap up and breakout from July 12th.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_40527\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40527\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/170817_SP500.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/170817_SP500.png\" alt=\"The S&amp;P 500 (SPY) suddenly has the toppy feeling, but it closed with a long stretch well below its lower-Bollinger Band.

Going forward, I am definitely not switching to a bullish short-term trading call without confirmation: a close above 2475 for the S&#038;P 500 which would conquer the bearish evening star. I will of course swing to (cautiously) bullish on true oversold conditions (AT40 below 20%).<\/p>\n<p>The NASDAQ lost 1.9% but did not crack the low from the last 1-day plunge; ditto for the PowerShares QQQ Trust (QQQ) which managed to cling to its 50DMA support and keep its 20DMA from declining.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_40530\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40530\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/170817_NASDAQ.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/170817_NASDAQ.png\" alt=\"The NASDAQ avoided a new low and did not confirm a toppy feeling.\" width=\"550\" height=\"519\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40530\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40530\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The NASDAQ avoided a new low and did not confirm a toppy feeling.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_40528\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40528\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/170817_QQQ.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/170817_QQQ.png\" alt=\"The PowerShares QQQ Trust (QQQ) sold off but held critical support that looks here like a loose trading range giving way temporarily.\" width=\"550\" height=\"539\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40528\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40528\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The PowerShares QQQ Trust (QQQ) sold off but held critical support that looks here like a loose trading range giving way temporarily.<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/swingtradebot.com\/equities\/general-market-analysis\" target=\"_blank\">SwingTradeBot<\/a> further confirmed the short-term bearish action by showing a dominance of bearishness across major indices and timeframes.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_40537\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40537\" style=\"width: 490px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/170817_SwingTradeBotMarketOverview.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/170817_SwingTradeBotMarketOverview.png\" alt=\"The stock market is bleeding red!\" width=\"500\" height=\"397\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40537\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40537\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The stock market is bleeding red!<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<strong>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/swingtradebot.com\/equities\/general-market-analysis\" target=\"_blank\">SwingTradeBot<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>The volatility index was strong early in the day, but it took me a while to realize that my bullish posture was misplaced.

A low-ball limit order for a fresh 2-week call on ProShares Ultra VIX Short-Term Futures ETF (UVXY) went unfilled and reminded of how complacent I had become for two days. As a reminder, my on-going strategy for this seasonally weak period for the stock market is to ALWAYS hold call options on UVXY on a 2-week expiration cycle. In hindsight, it was quite telling that these call options were so &#8220;expensive&#8221; today.<\/p>\n<p>The close on Friday could prove critical in confirming whether the market is actually in a sustainably bad mood here (if I do a bullish trade on Friday, it will start with trying to fade volatility).
