Blog Post: Day 7 of $QQQ short term up-trend, but it will likely end on Friday; Only 1 Nasdaq 100 stock rose on Wednesday !!!???? Long term treasury bonds, $TLT, are dropping! Setups are failing. Time for me to be on the sidelines.

GMI3/6
GMI-22/9
T210846%

So many things are not adding up. Not many highs or ATHs  and long treasury bonds are declining, see chart below. I own a very little SQQQ in case a new QQQ short term down-trend begins on Friday. It is late and I had not planned to post tonight. I just want to tell my readers that I have gone to cash and hope that I am wrong and a good contrarian indicator. The GMI2 has fallen to 2, indicating that my most sensitive short term indicators are now negative. Below is a daily chart of TLT, the 20 year treasury bond ETF. Bond traders are selling bonds and raising interest rates because, I assume,  they fear future inflation. Higher long term rates will increase the cost to the US government to borrow money and service the debt. My setups are failing. Time for me to be on the sidelines.

Blog Post: Day 4 of $QQQ short term up-trend; But GMI= only 3. Silver and Gold are going vertical! Be careful.

Many years ago I learned when a stock I owned went vertical and my internal voice said, “this is too easy,” it often meant the stock was having a final climax run. SLV appears that way to me. On Friday it zoomed on the highest trading volume in a long time. This daily chart shows that SLV has closed above its rising 5 EMA (blue dotted line) for 20 consecutive days after its GLB!!!! Social media is filled with posts about silver and gold. Is this too easy? We need to be careful.

The GMI is 3 (of 6), reflecting the fact that fewer stocks are hitting new highs. But it is still GREEN.
