WEEKEND REPORT Aug 14- TORN

The past few weeks of trading have been very good. Active traders have been able to find set up after set up, especially in Miners and now Energy. Some that Bought Miners in late May and Early June are still reaping rewards, and we have been looking at Energy trades for the past 2 weeks too. I am just a little torn about what I am seeing in some areas.  For example, The General Markets broke to new highs and consolidated, but the VIX is very low. Also I've mentioned the  lack of follow through in Golds Pop at the open for the last 3 days, etc.  Lets go through our weekend update and review our weeks activity.

.

SPX - After a long sideways consolidation, we had a pop and basically more consolidation.

SPX 8-12

The Markets should have a strong move after such a long consolidation, but so far they are just continuing sideways and the VIX is at a point that usually ushers in a temporary top. Cycle-wise, we are due for a DCL soon,  so I'd expect that we get a drop soon.

.

SPX WKLY - That drop could back test the break out or the 10ma.

AUG 12 – Navigating Choppy Waters

I wanted to share a thought on  Gold, Miners, and Oil

.

WTIC  -  Oil remained bullish with the bullish follow through on Day 6.  There may be resistance at the 50sma, but so far this looks good.
