As fear hit the indexes again early this morning, a funny thing happened… the Volatility Index (VIX) recorded a lower high and Gold (GLD), Silver (SLV), and the S&P 500 (SPX) recorded higher lows (see chart below). This reinvigorated the S&P 500 for a run back at the daily highs and near term descending trend line. Note the index is on bar 6 of a DeMark sell setup that should continue IF the index sustains a break above 1320. Note as well that a break above 1320 would likely bring a move to 1325-1330 by end of day or early tomorrow.
Again, this is a very short term setup and predicated on a break of 1320 which IS strong resistance. Note I have a position in SSO (2x S&P 500) with a mental stop at equivalent of 1314.
