Indices closed down 5.5% to 6.9% in high volume selling......

Indices closed almost @ low of the day, taking down all support in indices.

Politicians are still not getting it, still busy with face time on TV....

Internals were as listed below :

Down volume led by 81.70 to 1 in NYSE & 180.41 to 1 in Nasdaq....this stat could be @ all time record.

Declining stocks led by 65.89 to 1 in NYSE & 20.74 to 1 in nasdaq

New lows were 1334 in NYSE & 683 in Nasdaq

VIX jumped 50% @ 48

All the above stat in combination is much more than capitulation, but we are facing an unusual situation in US where politicians have lost it completely....thus the pain continues.

S&P 500 has lost 227.72 points in roughly 2 weeks, a stunning drop of 16.91% ....

RSI @ close @ 16.46...i thought this low can happen in a nuclear attack ?

Oil is tumbling Down $5.57 @ 81.31

Gold @ all time high UP $61.40 @ $1713.20

AH picture is equally disturbing....

Futures are down sharply Dow 292, S&P 500 31 & Nasdaq 70...so we are all set to tumble @ open again......

AH Asian Markets are down sharply Nikkei 4.48%, Hang Seng 7.28%

AH Oil down $5.02 @ $76.29

AH Gold UP $29.40 @ $1742.60

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi C,

Stay with all your existing position.

IF we close UP today, start adding from Wed....

Looks like HFT are covering their shorts......
