Commentary: Paul Ebeling on Wall Street

$DIA, $SPY, $SDS, $QQQ, $VXX

The NAS Comp marked a fresh ATH (all-time high) again, and what we have seen in this market is that new highs are sold and buyers come back and pick up the dip. So, that being the case, the move is to bank some gains, and let the action back and fill then come back later.

Over this US Holiday weekend North Korea tested a 6th bomb, this 1 it claimed to be hydrogen and warhead ready. They might be able to get it up, but the intel says they still do not know how to get it to reenter and hit a predetermined target

Nevertheless it is a bit grim, plus we heard all weekend about floods, a new hurricane named Irma headed for Miami, a massive wildfire in Los Angeles, and Government leaders picking at one another.

My sainted Mother would say, “Never a dull moment.”

But, the headlines are dominated by NKorea’s nuclear ambitions, and we will have to see
how the market handle this at the open.

Currently at 3:30a EDT the S&P 500 mini futures are trading at -4.75 so slightly Bearish

This market, through it all finds its same pattern; the large cap indices hold intact and continue North doing what they have done in other moves throughout The Trump Rally.

And means expecting a continued move higher in the uptrend channel by NAS Comp, S&P 500 and the DJIA followed by reversal of the new highs, the dip and buying at the pivot.

That is what the big trader’s algorithm programming indicates, despite all of the Noise of a selloffs that will not bounce, the indices have bounced on that pattern.

So, the classic strategy: let the upside run, then bank the highs, wait for a good re-entry, pay attention, look for breakouts.

There are great stocks in good position to move within the established patterns of the good stocks as the leaders have shrunken over the last few months. So, do not stretch the line up in here.

Remember, always take what the market gives, it is your money, your responsibility.
