JUNE 1- Looking Good!
So in this Big Picture Report I am going to just let the charts do the talking. At this point in time, it now looks like things are playing out very much as expected way back last summer. You'll see what I mean, and it should be good news for those that are sick & tired of this directionless chop! Enjoy...
May 31- CHANGE OR STILL CHOPPY?
In the markets, at times it can be a Challenge to discern early on whether or not some of the Changes that we see taking place are real changes with follow through or just continued choppiness. Lately the choppiness has been full of whip saw moves, and for that reason, I have admonished keeping any positions small and always honoring stops. Eventually, we will get more of a directional move, but when will we get some follow through? Let's go to the charts and discuss this further...
Thursday May 30 – No Real Bounce Yet?
We are due for a bounce, but the markets have not been able to muster one up yet. Yesterday we did see some reversals heading into the close, so maybe a bounce is next? Let's take a look and see what the charts say...

Wednesday May 22 – Fed Minutes
Today the Fed Minutes are expected to provide insights into the May 1 central bank meeting. Policymakers decided to keep interest rates steady, and I do have some interesting things to show you pertaining to that. 2 P.M. Eastern Time will be the time that the minutes are released, so set your alarm 🙂 Let's take a look at the Markets.

SPX - This was the SPX in yesterdays report, showing a possible back test and the DCL is in place...
May 20 – Still Choppy
One thing that the markets do not like is indecision, and lately with the China Tariff 'cause and effect', the Markets are having a tough time gaining traction. I believe we also get the release of the Fed Minutes this Wednesday, so it seems like we are in for some more choppiness. Let's just take a look at what the week started off like...

SPX - We had the break of the short term downtrend recently, but the upside follow through has been lacking. The SPX lost the 50sma, but this may just be a back test of that trend line. We'll see if we get a bounce Tuesday.
