The grinder worked overtime on Wednesday as the SPX opened slightly higher and went up,
down, up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, up and
down. Yes, it really did. Check out the one day chart. And so did the DIA, IWM, SPY and QQQ. Classic
range day! Hidden in the range was a
strengthening in the breadth of the market as 4 sectors moved higher and advancers
led decliners on the NYSE.

but found a support level and then channeled for the second half of the day. AMZN,
AAPL, INTC, NFLX, CSCO, TSLA, AVGO, BIDU, PYPL, AMAT and BKNG accounted for
66 of the 69 points the NDX fell on Wednesday.

grinder so true. i posted that i thought the market would provide a dead cat bounce to produce some divergence. here we are. qqq is best example as it has a lower low, with a higher rsi. if you are shorting here be very nimble. looks like if markets dont absolutely cave in here that divergences are building for a pivot and run up. i like 2710 to get short for a bit. before then i cant really see it as being productive. traders may exit again last day of week tomorrow as they did last friday. i would like to see an exhaustion sell off for a long entry, maybe at qqq 200 dma.
playing my harp here but one of the stocks that has not suffered as much on this drop is intc. one look at the divergence across daily weekly and monthly charts tells me around $55 would be a great short or at least a place to stand aside. the charts are saying that is a top that may last many months to years, and i would gauge it will see the mid to low 30's before its done. i dont know what would cause that but the charts say its way over done.
