R.B.I. Trader's Update

10 / 14 / 2009

(Published Since 1996)

Dateline: 7:56 pm eastern time, 10/14/2009

After a large gap up open was reversed from 1083.00 on the
ES (just above our 1082.00-1082.75 resistance) it dropped to
updated support at the 1077.50-1076.50 area. That was key
and the ES went to 1077.75 and then reversed back up. After
a bounce the 1081.50 level turned into support and just
before the Fed Minutes it was mentioned that the highs were
likely in place. That was wrong. While the ES made a token
higher high and reversed, the rest of the market did not
make higher highs, the market pulled back but that didn't
stick. Buying came back in with an hour left in stock
trading and the market rallied to new highs for the year and
held until just before the close.

The first close back over 10,000 on the Dow will likely not
hold on the first try. The daily internal gauges are getting
to short term extreme overbought readings. The RBI
Oscillator reached an extreme overbought level at
Wednesday's close. That normally sets up sideways, 2-sided
action at best, and normally leads to a selloff. Also, the
short term sentiment has gotten overly bullish short term.
If the Vix reverses from its current level on Thursday, it
would give at least 3 of 5 possible sell signals. If the
market just ignores that, and continues to rally and gets to
the 1102.50-1104.00 area on the ES, that would fill a large
gap on the daily chart and would set up a very good shorting
opportunity.

That said, the upside momentum will remain intact
unless/until the 1083.00-1082.50 area on the ES is broken
and then cannot get back over 1085.50 on a bounce. That
would turn the intraday trends down. In any case, on
Thursday look for early strength to set up a trade on the
short side. This will work nicely if the futures pop up to
their initial resistance areas (especially the NQ) and then
reverse. If that plays out, that first decent pullback needs
to hold the initial support areas, otherwise a top could be
in place short term.
