IBM breaking to new lowest short term after breaking $115 strong support. Expect some sort to short term bounce in the next day or two before the intermediate trend start to emerge: more selling or a new sideways pattern start to form.


T re-testing the sub-27 dollar level after just testing it less that 2 weeks ago. This is near the low from April/May sell at all cost panic selling. Not a good sign given the over market still off the April/May lows. Watch for a break below the low from April/May as it will have institutional traders dumping position to avoid showing losses in what has been a tough year. Essentially year end reporting on the funds and tax loss session season coming up.



Selling on CVX the last 2 days indicates traders are nervous because of the heavier than usual volumes. The current level is an important one to watch. Breaking this level leads to a minor support level around $63 and the the low from April/May of $51.50. If you bough the high from a few years ago you are now more than 50% underwater.

Hi Johnny,

I went back and studied the run up to the 2016 election regarding the price action of the S&P ( I had forgotten how it happened).

The 2016 election was on November 8th (always on a Tuesday).

The market went down for 7 straight days (a 2.5% decline). It reversed up on monday, Nov 7th, the day before the election day(markets are closed on election day). That single day the market regained 2.2% and continued to rally into February the next year.

The Trump Bump was very powerful.

I'm hoping for a red wave runaway result on tuesday, and put a quick end to this uncertainty that has been injected into this election with unsolicited mail in ballots.

Bob
