This week, the markets continued their slide down the slippery slope. But that slide may finally find a bottom early next week. Currently the S&P 500 is nestled below its 50 day moving average, but above its lower level trendline support, which could prove to be pivotal. DeMark analysis indicates that the S&P 500 is on bar 7 of a daily TD DeMark Buy set up, suggesting a possible bottom Monday or Tuesday [at least short term]. Just in time for a holiday rally??? We shall see.
I am sitting at roughly 35% long exposure and looking to add to positions next week… with stops to limit downside risk. See annotated chart below, and keep risk management in mind, as the market has a lot to prove.
Have a good rest of your weekend.
