08/19/2018: Markets were up slightly for the week, after the Indices dipped down near the Red Lines (50-day avgs.) and then bounced. Now the Indices need to Close above the January Highs for the rally to remain healthy.
A “Bullish” scenario would be for the Markets to shoot up thru the Highs with Huge Volume.
The “Bearish” scenario would be for the Markets to “Double Top” or form a “M” pattern, which would indicate a lack of new money and could cause Selling. We should find out soon.
For the week the Dow was up 1.41%, the S&P 500 was up 0.67%, and the Nasdaq 100 was down 0.42%. The Long Term Trend on the Stock Markets is UP.
The Inflation Index (CRB) was down 1.54% and is Below the Green Line, indicating Economic weakness.
Bonds were up 0.27% for the week and Closed Above the Green Line, indicating Economic weakness.
The US DOLLAR was down 0.16% for the week.
Crude Oil was down 3.58% for the week at $65.21, and GOLD was down 2.85% at $1184.

QUESTION: John H. writes “Morning ATGL, Do you like one particular time frame for making entries and exits during the day, after you have already made the decision to trade?”
ANSWER: Hi John, and thank you for writing. For logging of trades we only use the Closing Price on the day the Money Wave Closes > 20. Many will go to the 60-min chart, and Buy in advance of the Close, but only if the Daily Money Wave is going to Close >20.
Wait for the 60-min Chart to at least cross above the Pink Line, and preferably a Triple Buy on 60-min (1. Above Pink Line 2. Above 20 on Money Wave 3. MACD Buy).
You might sell when the Investment does not bounce well off the Pink Line (10-day avg.) or Closes below Pink.
Good trading, and tell your friends!
