Where Is The Top Of This Market?

We are reaching the top. No, really, we are reaching the top. Seriously, I mean it this time, this has to be the top. I think I have been hearing an abundance of caution for months. And many analysts have back tracked and diverted and even doubled down. You get the feeling that patience is starting to run out. This exhaustion of doomsday predictions is something to pay attention to. Let me give you two important reasons. (Chart below) The S&P IS finding support at the 10 day moving average. It may be hugging it closely, but the support is there. As unsettling as it may be to stay long in these situations, you can't deny the trend. Fighting the trend and shifting too early can be costly and many have been handing back gains as they try to jump ahead of a confirmed reversal. Trends will send clear signals that show when they are exhausted. The second thing to be careful of is to not let your guard down. While we do have to follow the trend, we have to be ready when it reverses. A great strategy in this type of situation is to stop trying to call the market and just listen to it. Traders who have been trying to go short just ahead of the next correction or reversal have been taking a hefty haircut. Better to let the trend play out, maybe even get a trim when the rally arcs and starts to turn then to keep giving money to Wall Street as it pushes this market up. Momentum indicators are really powerful tools that help confirm the trend will keep going or let you know that exhaustion has truly happened and it is time to shift. Momentum Trading with Precision shows some of the most powerful examples of these indicators. Grab it [here]( make sure you are ready as things shift.

This means the trades are not actual trades and instead are hypothetical trades based on real market prices at the time the recommendation is disseminated. No actual money is invested, nor are any trades executed. Hypothetical or simulated performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. Also, the hypothetical results do not include the costs of subscriptions, commissions, or other fees. Because the trades underlying these examples have not actually been executed, the results may understate or overstate the impact of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading services in general are also designed with the benefit of hindsight, which may not be relevant to actual trading. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading.
