About market, TAPE was under selling pressure due to uncertainty with leading German Bank, there is a fear of spillover effect IF this issue unravels. I am of the opinion, like any other major issue, this will be resolved by Germany. Any more selling can be used for strategic buying / shifting of portfolio. Internals, although weak, but new 52 wk highs are still leading. There is a closing BLOG only on Friday's around 7 PM.

Oil & oil related stocks took off to a gain of around 8%. OPEC certainly changed the conversation of many pundits on CNBC.

Market setting UP nicely for Q4 run......
Indices are looking very healthy for Q4 run.
Here is a table of where major indices are from all time highs :
Nasdaq .7% away from all time high
SOX .8% away from all time high
S&P 500 1.33% away from all time high
Dow 2.18% away from all time high
Russell 3.3% away from all time high
Here is a look @ RSI :
Nasdaq 59.10
Russell 57.58
SOX 56.67
S&P 500 51.52
Dow 47.78
IF we look @ 2 tables above, there is a very clear & strong picture emerging, that Nasdaq is the strongest in all indices. It is important to be overweight in strong technology stocks. Dow is either near or @ low in both table, showing a laggard performance.
Russell is an interesting situation, although, it is lagging in terms of how far from all time high, but it has come quickly to be the second most strong in terms of RSI, lot of opportunities there.
Biotech, although, i am not a follower for a long time, but it has been a star performer and has got my attention now.
As we enter Q4, which is strongest Q in terms of technology and market strength, we are position to make series of new all time high, seasonality matters, so pay attention to your allocation and sector weighting.
Very few times, that Q4 seasonality is so strong, than currently visible, so take advantage of this seasonal strength by showing conviction and patience.
Good luck with your own strategy and comfort level.

About market, TAPE went UP to flat and closed near low of the day, CMF is red in Dow & S&P 500. Internals are mostly negative. Now it is all about fed policy on interest rate @ 2 PM we were bombarded by 19 fed officials as to where interest rates are headed, now the real policy will come out. Fed will ensure markets health, irrespective of their decision, so language becomes critical. Nasdaq CMF is green and is giving clear indication of bullish posture. So be ready for UP / Down tape in first 30 minutes after 2 PM. By 3 PM we will know where we are headed for close, hopefully sharply higher.

Market @ critical juncture.....
Indices are @ the mercy of fed decision on Wednesday.
IF we look @ indices, they are sitting near all time highs :
S&P 500 4.13% away from high
Dow 2.92% away from high
Nasdaq only .81% away from high
Here is the RSI picture :
Nasdaq 54.75
S&P 500 42.91
Dow 41.36
IF we look @ all indices, Nasdaq is in serious bull mode even just before fed decision, this is a very good indicator for technology stocks.
S&P 500 is a laggard.
After 19 fed speakers trying to crush this market, it is really interesting that, technology stocks did not hear any of those 19 fed officials, and kept their composure.
SO fed will say " we have to take pre-emptive action to normalize interest rate by increasing .25%" or they will say "we need more data to see the trend"
In first case of higher interest rate, language becomes critical or Q & A explanation, IF it is one off, we are off to the races and indices may jump to new all time high in Nasdaq.......
IF fed need more data, then we will have a "relief rally"
Either way barring nasty language of more than one rate hike, indices are sitting very comfortably below highs.
From October it is Q 4, which is the strongest part of stock market, earnings for Q 3 will start with AA in week 1, earnings may surprise again with majority beating consensus.
Based on seasonality, indices will recover quickly from any fed surprise and march towards series of new all time highs.
Strongly recommend higher allocation in a well diversified portfolio, go for strong stocks with highest weighting in technology.
Good luck with your own interpretation of this TAPE and your own comfort level.

Internals were horrible in NYSE with 25.33 to 1 down volume. Today also has the feel of capitulation and then finding support, even IF we violate support by hair, it will be triple bottom, before we take off again. In this support finding TAPE, it is important to cut loose non performing stocks and position with better quality. All we need now is 2 green close to cut through this fed led negativity.

AH Oil Down
AH Gold UP
About market, TAPE reacted to what fed takes then fed gives back also, most influential member of fed came to rescue, and everybody smiled as if nothing happened on Friday.Indices closed near high of the day. Internals were mostly positive.Fed give and take is over, now TAPE has to stand on its own two feet. Damage was done on Friday, it was a break in technicals, it could take more than few days to get its act together. Negativity will give buying opportunities as we go towards fed meeting.

Are indices in trouble ?
SO...we had our 1st high volume selling since June, reasons are many, but most of all, there was complacency, every trader got too comfortable with this ever resilient market.
NOW...the question is where to NOW ?
Before we attempt to answer that all important question, lets look @ RSI first :
SOX @ 39.23, only sector which is above 50 DMA by 6+ points
Nasdaq @ 39.00
Dow @ 32.08
S&P 500 @ 31.94
IF we look @ these RSI numbers, most technical followers should be elated, that we are @ extremely low RSI and is considered "deeply oversold " and @ good entry point......
IF we look @ internal carnage of this market, it was this bad :
Down volume led by in NYSE @ 31.69 to 1 in NYSE
Declining stocks led by 19.30 to 1 in NYSE
Nasdaq fared a touch better :
Down volume led by 10.18 to 1
Declining stocks led by 6.16 to 1
These internals are a reflection of extreme pessimism, means we are "deeply oversold" or @ good entry point.
Instead of "fear" taking over, this is a time to think long term seasonality of Q4
Q4 is always bullish, which may be starting earlier than expected, in terms of entry in major Nasdaq stocks.
I personally believe that this kind of selling cannot be sustained, we may have seen the low or maybe 1% from low......
Buying low and selling high, is a well known strategy, we may have "overreacted" to low rate impact on US economy......
SO...it is your buying opportunity which only comes every 90 days or longer......
Good luck with your own strategy and comfort level.
