Markets continued to climb as volume continues to fall. The SP500 once again set a new high (2050.88) as the other major averages traded sideways after falling of their morning highs.

By noon the market action has appeared to have fallen off and left to the HFT algo computers to do what they do. Higher highs in the SP500 are almost assured, but a reversal later in the afternoon is also almost assured.

Our medium term indicators are leaning towards sell portfolio of non-performers at the midday and the short-term market direction meter is bearish. We remain mostly conservatively bullish, neutral in other words. Right now now I am getting very concerned any downtrend could get very aggressive in the short-term and volatility may also promote sudden reversals. The SP500 MACD has turned flat, but remains above zero at 24.84. I would advise caution in taking any position during this uncertain period and I hope you have returned your ‘dogs’ to the pound.

Having some cash on hand now is not a bad strategy as market changes are happening everyday. As of now, I do not see any leading indicators that are warning of a ‘long-term’ reversal in the near-term. There may be one later in 2015, but any market fluctuations we see now are more of a internal market rectification than a bear market.

Investing.com members’ sentiments are 63 % Bearish (falling from 70% and now rising from 33%).

Investors Intelligence sets the breath at 52.9 % bullish with the status at BearCorrection. (Chart Here ) I expect a market reversal at or before ~25.0 should the direction continue to descend.

StockChart.com Overbought / Oversold Index ($NYMO) is at +5.15. (Chart Here)But anything below -30 / -40 is a concern of going deeper. Oversold conditions on the NYSE McClellan Oscillator usually bounce back at anything over -50 and reverse after reaching +40 oversold. (Now were are high enough to descend again – watch out!)
