We’re there, but would I bet on it? No. Short term cycles are bullish, and both the 6 month and 13 week cycles seem to be trending. So I would like to see evidence that the trend is broken.

I don’t mind being a little late at the top. Betting on the short side has been a tough way to make money.

On the third rail chart the market continues rising within multiple channels. Short term channel support rises from 4400 to 4435 this week. Additional multiple support lines rising from around xxxx and xxxx should contain any pullback. Major trend support is around xxxx (subscriber report). Only if all of those are broken could is a significant reversal possible.

On the weekly chart long term cycle momentum broke out last week, ending a negative divergence. This suggests that the market could go higher for longer, which means perhaps xxxx months, or xxxxx. Cycle oscillators are also very strong. This isn’t set up for a top.

Trend support is now at xxxxx. Resistance and a possible near term target is at xxxx.

Long term cycle projections point to xxxx-xxxx with highs due between xxxx and xxxx.

On the monthly chart, the S&P 500 would need to end August below 4200 to signal a potential reversal of the uptrend. If the SPX clears long term trend resistance around 4500, the target would rise to xxxx.

The long term cycle momentum indicator remains bullish.

Cycle screening measures remain bullish.

The chart picks report will be posted on Monday morning.

The 13 week cycle high is ideally due around xxxxxx (in subscriber report), with a projection of xxxx (in subscriber report). The 6 month cycle still seems to be in trending mode with a new projection of xxxx. The 10-12 month cycle is ideally due to top out within x weeks, with a new projection of xxxx.

On the third rail chart the market continues rising within multiple channels. Short term channel support rises from 4370 to 4405 this week. Additional multiple support lines rising from around 4360 and 4330 should contain any pullback. Major trend support is around xxxx (in subscriber report). Only if all of those are broken could is a significant reversal possible.

On the weekly chart, a possible target of this move is now at xxxx. The market would now need to conclusively break xxxx to signal a reversal.

Long term cycle projections point to xxxx with highs due between xxxx and xxxx.

On the monthly chart, the S&P 500 would need to end August below xxxx to signal a potential reversal of the uptrend. If the SPX clears long term trend resistance around 4500, the target would rise to xxxx in August.

The long term cycle momentum indicator remains bullish.

All swing cycles are back in gear but only one of them has a projection. Meanwhile, we know that one major cycle is due to top out at any time between now and September. We’re on the alert for the signs from the indicators for that cycle (shown in subscriber report).

The market closed Friday at trend resistance on the third rail chart. That resistance starts the week at 4433 and rises to 4455. Clearing that line would indicate acceleration. Massive trend support lies between 4270 and 4335. That would need to be broken to signal reversal.

On the weekly chart, the SPX had a false breakdown from the uptrend line off the October 2020 low. The market would now need to conclusively break 4230 to signal a reversal on this chart. Trend resistance and a possible target of this move is now at xxxx (in subscriber report).

Long term cycle projections point to xxxx-xxxx (subscriber report) with highs due between xxxx and xxxx.

On the monthly chart, if the SPX clears long term trend resistance at 4410, the next target in July would be xxxx. In August, that would rise to xxxx (subscriber report).

The long term cycle momentum indicator remains bullish.

Cycle screening measures reversed their recent weakness. They have sent misleading signals in recent weeks. Price trends themselves must always be the finally arbiter of any trend analysis.

Cycles up to 13 weeks probably turned down on Friday. However, the 13 week cycle still has an unmet projection of xxxx (in subscriber report) that can’t be ruled out unless the market breaks hard early this week. There’s not enough evidence that the 6 month or 10-12 month cycle have topped out either. A 10-12 month cycle high is due between xxxxx and xxxxx (in subscriber report). There are currently no projections on those cycles for the SPX, and a projection of xxx on QQQ.

There was less there than meets the eye in Friday’s reversal on the third rail chart. Support lines start the week at xxxx and xxxx and rise to xxxx and xxxx (in subscriber report). Breaking those would signal possible intermediate trend reversal. There’s another trendline running from xxxx to xxxx  that could also be support. It too would need to be broken for bears to get a foothold

On the weekly chart, SPX is hanging on to the pinnacle of a wedge. The negative divergence in the long term momentum indicator looks similar to the one that preceded the February 2020 top. A down week this week could trigger a decline to xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxxx. That’s the big boy they’d need to break to set off a possible bear market.

Long term cycle projections point to xxxx-xxxx with highs due between next month and sometime next year.

On the monthly chart, the upper channel line will be around xxxx at the end of July. A much longer term trendline represents support around xxxx in July.

The long term cycle momentum indicator remains bullish.

Cycle screening measures were weak again, continuing a pattern of negative divergence that become glaring last week. I have warned that this pattern was a warning, and now I’m warning that the warning seems ready to bear bearfruit.

Since the last report two weeks ago, before our half-season break, four picks hit their stops. All were longs. Ironically, the only remaining pick is a short, and it has a minimal gain. I tightened the stop on it. For some odd reason, I suspect that it will get taken out. 😉

The current screen from charts as of the close on Friday, July 9, had a whopping 139 buys and 13 sells. Two of the sells were inverse funds, making the final score Bulls 141, Bears 11. But the kicker is that 7 of the sells were bond funds. There were only 4 equity sell signals out of the total 152 signals. That’s mind boggling.

I took a little vacation last week, so no weekly figures to compare. Before the break, they had been lopsided on the buy side. The market has made surprisingly little upside progress, given the surfeit of buy signals. There’s a lot of noise, and not a lot of direction in these signals.

The enormous bullish spread on Friday would normally suggest thrust, and a new upleg, meaning that this rally would be likely to run for weeks. But, once again, I wasn’t impressed after eyeballing all 152 of the charts with signals. Most looked to be of the rangebound whipsaw variety. I didn’t see that many that appeared to be in an early upmove setup. There were only 5 charts I liked enough to add to the list for this week.

Here are the picks I liked from Friday’s raw data. They’re all longs. The stop levels also represent no-go prices if the these long picks open below their stop.
