Commentary<\/strong><\/p>\n

The S&P 500 ended the day flat after taking a dip in the morning that struck me as a good trading (bullish) opportunity<\/a> at the time. T2108 added three percentage points to 30%, causing a nice bullish divergence with the S&P 500. This is a positive sign given the stochastics on the index are now overbought. Since the May 1st high, the index has sold off whenever stochastics got this high. I am hoping T2108’s bullish divergence softens any subsequent selling in the next day or two.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

This is a good time lock in more profits from earlier oversold trades. I did not change the trading call because I am currently expecting selling to be relatively mild. If you are a daytrader, it will make a lot of sense to try shorting into any intraday rally for the next day or two. Continue tracking the VIX<\/a>. It stubbornly refuses to break the last low. If this volatility index stays firm at current support, we should expect imminent weakness in the stock market.<\/p>\n

And before you get overly bearish too soon, check out a three-year chart of gambling company Wynn Resorts<\/a> (WYNN). I have also duly noted that one of my latest hedges, LinkedIn (LNKD), has soared 23% in just the past three days<\/a>. The stock has rushed right up against 50DMA resistance, but it is one example of many where money has rushed right back into the stock market in search of “bargains” with high upside potential.<\/p>\n
