SPX Weekly #1 - This is what I have said that I have been expecting out of the first daily cycle, and now we are hitting 2 resistance zones. We May or may not be at a top, but timing wise, we are close. We will dip to a dcl soon.

Alex - Chart Freak2019-02-01 12:14:572019-02-01 13:14:47FRIDAY – Still Running Like A Cheetah
We had some nice action after the FOMC Decision Wednesday. A lot of the sectors played our as expected, so lets discuss what to expect going forward too.
.
SPX - The General Markets broke higher with the Fed 'No Rate Hike" Decision. I expect a little more upside.
UPRO - UPRO, SOXL, TQQQ, etc are good 3x etfs for 'Fast Gains", since this daily cycle could peak after another run higher.

Alex - Chart Freak2019-01-31 06:35:412019-01-31 06:35:41January 31st – Post Fed Pops Let's take a look at the markets current set up, as we wait for the FOMC Decision at 2 PM. Eastern today.
.
SPX - Basically still sliding sideways along the 50sma as expected, we had no real change in the General Markets. Are they waiting for the FOMC Decision too? 
I wanted to take a look at something else here, to see if there are any clues as to which way the Markets may break after the Fed Decision...

Alex - Chart Freak2019-01-30 05:54:022019-01-30 06:04:25January 30th – Waiting On The Fed AgainWhen a trade is acting correctly, sometimes we just trade out of them after they hit an estimated target, and wait to see if they pull back and offer another entry point. In some set ups, however, if the run looks really bullish, I may just encourage selling a portion on the way up and trying to Hold On if you can. I will explain that a bit more later in the report, after a brief discussion of our markets...
.
SPX - Last week I mentioned that because of the rising wedge, Price may need to crawl sideways along the 50sma as shown (XYZ) to form more of a channel.
SPX - So far it has done just that. It is day 21, and I feel that we could still run to the 200sma and then 'peak' and drop into the dcl.

Trading has been excellent and profitable for weeks now. Let's take a look at The Markets and future expectation...

SPX WEEKLY - The run out of the December ICL has been a sharp rally with a slight pause this week. It should continue to the 50 weekly ma (Blue line) over time.

Alex - Chart Freak2019-01-26 19:37:472019-01-26 19:37:47The January 26 Big Picture Weekend ReportAfter avoiding the stormy waters of the sell off in October through December, we had the hope of a nice rally out of the ICL , and some good trading opportunities presented themselves. I have mentioned the importance of watching how the first daily cycle unfolds, and especially the 2nd daily cycle. Well, we have some 'things' to look at that add hope that the current gains may continue for a while longer...

Just yesterday I said and drew these two things about the market...

Alex - Chart Freak2019-01-25 12:23:052019-01-25 13:37:08Jan 25th – Even More Hope Ahead?When a Red Flag shows up on the beach, it means that for some reason, it is unsafe to swim in those waters. Well, after 3 nice weeks of gains in the Oil & Energy sector, I am still seeing a Red Flag in those waters. As mentioned in yesterdays report, Oil itself still looks fine, but it seems that some of the Oil / Energy stocks may not like the waters that they find themselves swimming in. It looks like a Red Flag to me.
Let's take a look at our markets...
.
SPX - I mentioned that the General Markets can pull back to a 1/2 cycle low, or just go sideways along the 50sma . So far they are going sideways along the 50sma. I expect higher price ...

SPX - Day 17 has us in the middle of a move out of an ICL, and it is overbought. The short term move gets difficult to predict from this point, since it could dip to a 1/2 cycle low and then continue higher, or it may just churn sideways along the 50sma as it struggles in a wedge. Price held above that 50sma, but the Wedge is cautionary short term. My long term view remains the same.
Let's look a bit closer...

Alex - Chart Freak2019-01-23 12:17:482019-01-23 13:12:27Jan 23rd – Wednesday The Big Picture Outlook is based on current information and the formation of current set ups and what they seem to indicate going forward, but they cannot be considered 'Etched In Stone'. They give us a solid idea of what we may expect in the upcoming weeks or even months, and that helps us to move forward with our trade ideas. We have currently taken some trades at Major bottoms (ICLs) in the Equity and Energy Sectors, and we have used the Big Picture set up to have confidence in those trades.
So far, everything is right on track for what that Big Picture outlook here at Chartfreak has been for the past few months. The current trades are playing out well, but as time goes on, we need to stay alert to those big Picture set ups too. Things can gradually change over time, and adjustments are also made if necessary. For example, some may raise stops, others may decide to cut leverage, or even add to current positions , depending on how things are playing out. My admonition remains that as time goes forward, we need to stay current, stay flexible or adaptable, and Stay Frosty! Yes, we want to continue to examine the markets as we watch and see how things unfold.
.
That said, Let's examine our current Big Picture Market set ups. I am noting one change in the Precious Metals sector that needs to be mentioned and monitored going forward.
.
I said this in Friday Mornings report:
SPX – After about only 4 days sideways, The SPX , DJIA , NASDAQ , etc are slowly pushing above the 50sma. It does look like the SPX held the 8 ema, and wants higher price, so that may become the lower trend line. The 200 sma is the next likely target.
SPX Daily 1 - I also noted a rising wedge that might cause a pull back at the 50sma, but here we see here that on Friday it did break above the 50sma, and a run to the 200sma is possible ...
SPX Daily 2 - Since Friday saw the markets push higher, that wedge may become a channel higher. Read the chart.
