Markets “Gapped Up” today on hopeful News, but the Volume was low. The S&P 500 Index is back above the Red Line (50-day avg.) but the Buying was average. The Markets should hold up OK until they break the Pink Lines (10-day avgs.) Most of the Leaders are currently over-bought for the Short Term. All of the major Indices except the NASDAQ 100 are still Below the Green Lines, which is Bearish.
The Reward / Risk of Buying up here is not good now, so we are slowly taking profits. The weaker Indices like the Small Caps, Transports & NYSE could easily go back down once more. This rally from the Lows could be an A-B-C up on Elliott Wave count, and then maybe a “W” pattern back down again. Wait for the Leaders to return to their Green Zones (it does not take that long). The Watch List is very small… WAIT.
NEW SUBSCRIBERS: Please realize that the DOW 30 Index has just rallied up 5800 points (or 30% from the March Lows) and is still Below the Green Line. That is NOT GOOD. The Green Line System has captured many nice trades from the recent Lows, but now we have to WAIT. Be patient and WAIT for the S&P 500 Index to come back down from the Red Zone and return to the Green Zone for more Money Wave Buys.
Bonds were down today after Stocks rose.
Crude Oil was down $1.81 today at $18.06, a New Low.

NEW! TOP 100 LIST Updated Mar 31, 2020
Many like to Buy the day before, near the Close, if the Money Wave is going to create a Buy Signal (Closing > 20 and out of the Green Zone).
Don’t Buy if the Investment has already popped up too much. Money Wave Buys are usually good for a 3-6 % move in a few days.
We will “Not Log” trades if the Reward/Risk is not at least 2:1.
HAVE A SAFE WEEKEND!
