                                         Peerless and the Fed Are Trying
To Keep The DJI from breaking 10580.  The Last Hour
Reversal Today Brought Another Peerless Buy, a B19.

          
10/4/2011  Bernanke fails to rule out QE3

         
False breakdowns like today''s are bullish.  I have to emphasize again
     that Peerless works with closing prices and support lines through the lowest
     possible levels, the previous hypothetical lows.  We require DJI closes below
     such support-line levels. We do definitely not simply use a new closing low. 
     We do this precisely because of how often there are intra-day false moves at
     bottoms.  Another thing: DJI bottoms very often show nominal new closing low,
     just one day, below a previous close, at which time the key Peerless Indicators
     are not confirming by being below their levels of the recent low.   This is what
     yesterday's Buy B8 signalled.  See the discussion then. The failure by the DJI to
     break to new lows suggests a very tradeable bottom is now in place.  Having
     found support, the market must now rally to find resistance.   


         
Last hour rallies, of couse, like today's must be considered a mite suspect.  
     All the 300+ points of the gains came in the last hour.  It would be more convincing
     if the rally had started earlier today, say, after a weak first hour. 

         
But today certainly does come as a surprise to the many bears.  No one
     was bullish, except me, at the last SD Tiher User Group meeting.   The August 10600
     low was violated.  The sell stops there were triggered.   Now stocks are in stronger hands,
     professional hands who want a rally.   See how much the ETFs' Closing Powers have
     turned up today, though the downtrends have not been violated. The CP turning up at price
     support usually makes a good trade.


       
            So, until the DJI closes below today's low, it is probably
                           best to cover most of the shorts we have enjoyed among the bearish
                           MINCP stocks and buy some of the bullish MAXCP stocks for, at least
                          a quick rally of a few days, but probably more, a rally back to 11400-11600
                          and even the 65-day ma.  Note that a penetration of the lows yesterday
                          would force us next quickly to reverse and go heavily short the bearish
                          MINCP stocks.  Most likely, that would bring a judged Sell S10,

        
The multitude of recent Peerless Buy signals has to be considered bullish. 
     Sentiment is pretty negative. All the sellers may have had their chance.  Today
     Bernanke said the FED would be ready to buy Treasuries just as they did last
     September and October.  Such buying brought a nice market recovery from a
     near-breakdown in the second half of 2010.  Another bullish point, a big rally up from
     here would represent the third wave up sinc ethe March 2009 bottom.  Many Elliot
     Wave afficionadas believe that third waves are needed to bring a major top.

               It seems that Europeans are selling EURO based assets and buying US stocks. 
     The Dollar is rising along with stocks.  The inflation plays, Gold and Crude Oil declined today. 
     It is said multinational corporations are sitting on two trillion dollars in cash.  They
     may start employing it by by buying their smaller beaten down competitors, assuming
     the government continues to look the other ways at most such mergers.  Watch
     for signs of this.  See www.mergerjournal.com

Fed Members Dropping Hints on QE3 « SGTreport.com 
                      Bernanke Hints At QE3 | The Daily Capitalist

           New lows were made by the DJIA, SP-500, NYSE, NASDAQ, Value-Line and IWM (ETF for
         Russell-2000).  Can a DJI breaking of the key support  line going through the lows be
         far behind?  Today's Peerless Buy B8 registers the fact   that that the P-Indicator on our
        DJI chart is much improved from its levels in early August.  The last time a Buy B8 signal
         occurred was in July 2010 at what was a significant bottom.  The DJI recovered then after a
         marginal breaking of a well-tested support level following a similar P-I non-confirmation
         of a new low.  Compare the key values then with those now.  The P-Indicator (P-I) is actually
         much lower now than it was at the last Buy B8.  The rate of the decline (ANNROC) is far
         higher now.  The Accumulation (IP21) levels are similar.  The OBV (OPCT) is much better now
 
         Unfortunately, looking at the key statistics for 1930's June breakdown leading to the awful
         1930-1932 decline makes us realize that Non-Confirmations by the P-Indicator and
         Accumulation Index do not prevent a very serious decline if there is a clear key support failure. 

         I have mentioned mid-1930 before as a key point where history parallels the present,
         because of Hoover's efforts to balance the budget soon after a market crash (1929)
         during a severe recession.  Mid-1937 was the other prime example in the US of the
         dangers to the market of budget balancing while unemployment was high.  Bernanke
         alluded to this:  "Bernanke wasn't shy in offering Congress more advice: He reiterated his
         warning that lawmakers should not cut spending sharply while the economy is weak."

         They key point here, and I have mentioned it frequently, is that
Peerless Buys should be
         considered reversed by a judged Sell S10 (a key well-tested support failure)
, as was true in
         945.  The 1930 and 1945 charts are shown at the bottom of today's report.

          Unfortunately, we are also only in early October.  We have 6 more weeks of still seasonal
          bearishness to contend with.   Most disconcerting technically is the now
          near free-fall occurring in mid-caps and secondary stocks.  Look at how fast
          the IWM is falling.  But notice, too, that the CLosing Power and Accumulation
          Index are not confirming the severity of the decline.  There is hope, though
          the minimal bearishness inherent in IWM's pattern gives a downside target of
          54, 7 points lower than today's close.

wpe2.jpg (89840 bytes)

                Both Opening and CLosing Power are falling now for the key general market
                ETFs.   This is the recipe for a panic if the DJI does not hold support.  In a panic,
                the last bastions for investors give way.  Already   REITs have broken down
                badly.   Today, the strong biotechs sold off.  They may be anticipating a failure
                of DJI 10580.  Unlike in 2008 when the panic was total, GLD actually rose today

                and is still above a rising 149-day (30 wk ma). Another big decline by GLD could
                make the current market look lime 2008.  So would a decisive new yearly low by

                Crude Oil.

             Notice - The Hotline's address will change on Wednesday night.  Look for an email from us
             Monday if you subscription is current.  If we make a mistake, which is not exactly unheeard of,
             just email us.   Renewals are $350 by check and $360 by CC.  You can get Data, Hotline, Updates
             anbd Stocks' Hotline for $595 by CC.

             I fugured out how to fix my broken cimputer, so the Hotlines will get longer again.  I hope that
             is not a problem.   


            NYSE A/D Line Is Out-Performing the DJI.   This Will Help The 10580 Support Hold.
            But The History of Autumns before A Presidential Election Suggests That
            We Will Not Be Safe until November.  Stay Hedged with Bearish MINCP
            Stocks.   Shorts Should Be More Heavily Weighted.


                Trust that there is a reason, which we probably have not heard on the news yet,
            why Professionals are so bearish, that they are selling down hundreds and hundreds
            of stocks to new lows and bidding up only a handful.  The Peerless
Buy B9  and
          Buy B17
signals work a high percentage of the time, but they can and should be reversed
            by a DJI closing failure to hold above a lengthy, well-tested support failure.  Our Stocks'
            Hotline still holds a several biotechs, but we are short 3x more stocks than we are long.
            Note that we sold all our Tahiti stocks when the DJI broke the 11700 support failure
            in late July, because of the multiple Sell S9v.  We will now have to see if the test of
            support at 11600 will hold or not.  If it does hold and the CLosing Power is violated,
            we will buy DIA and IBM, most likely among the DJI-30.
           

              Friday's Buy B7 and Monday's Buy B17 Must Now Hold the DJI up.
           If its close breaks 10580, look for a 1000 point deeper decline.  
           In the chart below, see how the well-tested support line in the DJI
           now crosses at 10580.    Next study the charts of earlier key
           breaks in well-tested support.  

                          
9/30/2011
Key Support failures in DJI since 1929   
          
Looking at all the major support failures since 1928, we see that
           the most bearish of them occur when the NYSE A/D Line is
           is much weaker than than the DJI (1929, 1930, 1973) or there is a
           breaking of the neckline in a head/shoulder pattern (1962) or a
           hands-above-the-head pattern (1987).  The least bearish breakdown
           occurred when the A/D Line was clearly stronger than the DJI
           (1997 - brief breakdown shakeout) and 2010 (a marginal one-day
           breakdown and then a big rally.


          
Our case now shows a rising A/D Line during the period when the
           key suppport level was forming.  So, that is generally bullish.  Unfortunately,
           more and more NYSE stocks are primarily dividend plays and are
           benefitting from the very low interest rate environment.  So, some
           would say that that a rising A/D Line is not so protective against
           a bear market.  They can point to the very strong A/D Line for 5 months
           after the 9/11 terrorist attack which was then followed by a bear market
           that did not end until October 2002. 

           That Bonds now are the only group with more than 50% of their stocks
           above the 65-day ma shows just how defensive the market is now.  Has the
           bearishness and pessimism become too great?  If we are in a time-loop
           back to 1930, it can get a lot worse.  Balancing the budget, as Europe seeks to do,
           in the middle of a recession, is very dangerous and reminiscent of 1930 and
           1937.

             The 1977 bear market also showed a misleadingly strong A/D Line in its
           first half. 
Government spending cut-backs real or planned then dropped the
           market, as is happening now 1977.  Carter's federal fiscal policies are mostly
           forgotten but I recall them as being suprisingly austere, reflecting his
           tenure and experience as a Southern governor. 

                      "
The combination of rising prices, persistent unemployment, and a stagnant economy
                      had by 1977, when Carter took office, been dubbed "stagflation." The Carter administration
                      sought to slow inflation by raising interest rates and restraining federal spending.
                      Along with other measures, the program of federal fiscal austerity that Carter followed eventually
                      brought inflation under control but at considerable political cost. Wage workers, a core
                      Democratic Party constituency, fared poorly under Carter's economic prescriptions. In the
                      battle to control inflation, administration policies encouraged reduced employment"
                     Source.

                        Seasonality will not become bullish until after Thanksgiving, 11/24.
                      For now the market will have to struggle to stay upright.  Consider the bottoms
                      to decline in the Fall of years before the Presidential Election.  Rallies
                      regularly occur but they November is the month of most bottoms.  I mark
                      those in BLUE (9).  October bottoms (7) are marked in RED.
                         

                                 2007 - Exceptional - Bottom 11/20 and rally ended at upper band, only to start a bear market.
                                 2003 - rising market - 9/30 was dip to lower band.
                                 1999 - Bottom 10/18 followed by rally above upper band.
                                 1995 - rising market
                                 1991 - 10/7 bottom and rally almost to upper band,
                                 1987 - 10/19 bottom and rally to upper band
                                 1983 - 11/7 bottom and rally to upper band.
                                 1979 - 11/6 bottom and rally above upper band
                                 1975 - 10/1 bottom and rally to upper band and beyond.
                                 1971 - 11/24 bottom and rally above upper band.
                                 1967 - 11/8 bottom and rally above upper band.
                                 1963- 11/22 bottom and rally above upper band.
                                 1959 - 9/22 bottom and rally above upper band.
                                 1955 - 11/11 bottom and rally above upper band
                                  1951 - 11/7/ bottom and rally to uppe rband.
                                 1947 - 9/26 bottom and rally to upper band
                                  1943 - 11/30 bottom and rally above upper band
                                 1939 - rising market
                                 1935 - 10/2 dip to lower band in rising market
                                 1931 - 10/2 dip to lower band in rising market
                                 1927 - 10/24 bottom and rally above upper band  
          
                   2011 Shows Rising NYSE A/D Line.

        Will Buy B7 and B17 Prevent A Serious Breakdown?

        Friday's Buy B7 and Monday's Buy B17 Must Now Hold the DJI up.
      If it breaks 10600, look for a 1000 point deeper decline.   Fortunately,
      for now, Openings are uptrending and there is a concerted effort to
      boost the DJI-30, especially its highest priced component IBM, because
      IBM has 30x the weight of BAC, Bank of America, in its moves.  Lower
      capitalization stocks, such as comprise the Russell-2000 and its ETF,
      IWM, are hovering near the recent lows.  Professionals are betting on
      a breakdown apparently.  We see this in the fact that there are more
      than 300 MINCP stocks again today, despite the rally.

      The internal strength indicators remain mostly negative.   A rally to the
      upper band could easily set up another S9/S12 and an October sell-off.
      We will want to watch to see if the market's breadth expands if the
      rally can continue.  There is a lot of vulnerability to the market if
      the DJI cannot hold above 10600.  The Fed and the Obama Administration
      (Geithner from the NY Fed) watch these technicals closely.   They
      are aware of the need to not let the market breakdown now and set up
      a steep October panic.  Will they succeed?  They are going to try
      very hard.  If heavy European and Opening Selling starts up again,
      a dangerous situation will develop.  Both Opening and CLosing Power
      would start falling in unison.  This is the bearish "BOTH DOWN" pattern
      that occurred in September and October 2008.

      We are short more BEARISH MINCP stocks on our Stocks' Hotline
      than we are long.  At this point, buy only defensive high accumulation
      stocks like IBM if you want to play this rally on the long side.  The
      fact that ETFs' Closing Powers are falling denies us them as safe
      vehicles.  As a matter of fact, these show bearish CP head/shoulder
      patterns.

        Friday's Buy B7 and Monday's Buy B17 Must Now Hold the
      Market up despite head/shoulders, bearish seasonality,
      falling Closing Powers, Washington political stalemate and
      Deflationary austerity fiscal policies in Europe and Canada.

   
  Though the CP uptrends were broken today, they are still above
      their rising 21-day ma.  In addition, the steep downtrend for
      major market ETFs'
Opening Powers was broken.  We should
      see stronger openings for a while.  Resistance is expected at DJI 11350 now. 
      The near-term uptrend price trend is just below today's close. 


                 Deflationary Liquidity Trap in Europe.
     Can US Escape?  Only Bernanke Seems to be Trying to Prevent It Here.

      Foreign ETFs are weaker than the US indexes.  So are Chinese
      stocks.  The US may well be dragged down by a world-wide
      deflation brought about by misguided austerity policies elsewhere.
      Nowhere do we here talk of how these policies failed in 1930 and
      1931.  This is not leadership.  This is kow-towing to central bankers.

      Gold and Silver have now caved in. Oil is steadily falling.  It sure
      looks like the world has entered a deflationary liquidity trap.  This
      is like a black-hole.  It is self-perpetuating and self-accelerating.
      Ordinary tinkering as monetary policy offers will not work.   Bernanke
      said as much today when he said that we are in an economic crisis, where
      the number who are unemployed for more than a year in the US
      could soon represent the majority of the unemployed.

      The policy solutions are there.  They include:

                  drastic cuts in wasteful military spending,
                  closing expensive foreign bases,
                  stopping stupid, expensive, unwinnable foreign wars,
                  massive public works spending in the US,
                  New Deal like youth conservation jobs,
                  heavy taxation of the very wealthy who invest overseas,
                  buy American campaigns to promote US manufacturing,
                  State owned banks to break the hold over tight-fisted loan policies by "too big to fail banks"
                  promotion of small businesses instead of multinational corporations
                  and protective TARIFFs to allow US manufacturing to recover.

      None are seriously offered as real alternatives. With few exceptions,  they
      are not even seriously discussed by the Dems or Repubs.   The evidence
      seems to point to us being in a time-warp back to 1930 economically.
      Keep in mind that in 2007 the DJI had risen twice as much in the
      previous 25 years as it has in 1929.
  Hedging with bearish MINCP
      short sales each time the CP starts falling is recommended over hedging
      against inflation with Gold or Silver. 
The blackout by the major media
      on the very large demonstrations on Wall Street will have to be broken
      soon.  Demonstrations on Wall Street are usually accompanied by sharp
      sell-offs: See 1929 and 1970.    


   
  The DIA position taken at opening Monday had to be sold today
       when the red CP uptrendline was broken.  The DIA fell sufficiently
       below the opening.  The amounts are posted above here.  Add ,10
       or so, to guard against an intra-day whip-saw.
  I would not take a
      short position in DIA on the CP trendbreak because of the
      still operative Peerless buys.  I would
do some short-sale
      hedging on the trend-break with some of the bearish MINCP stocks
      posted here recently
.  It has to be bearish that professionals
      have switched to the short side, by a 15:1 margin when we compare
      the number of MINCP stocks and MAXCP stocks.  These are the
     number of stocks making Closing Power new lows and new highs
     for the last two days.
                             

                                    CP downtrending short-term
                        Note dotted CP 21-dma in these charts now.

diaex1.jpg (84117 bytes)
     
Above note that the Closing Power moving averages are still rising. That gives us some
      hope  for a quick reversal in a day or two.  However, if the markets fail to rally in the next two
      days, another test of 10600 seems likely.  A closing break of this well-tested
      support will be judged a Sell S10 and H/S Neckline Break.   Such action has
      over-riden premature buy signals in the past, most notably 1939, 1945 and
      1951.  In these cases, the DJI fell significantly further down before recovering.

      I have now added dotted lines for the CP 21-day ma. on the exploded chart.
      I will do the same thing for the Opening Power 21-day ma and post the update
      on the Elite Stock Professionals (ESP) page for downloading to your computer.

      The 21-day CP ma can still bring a reversal after the CP trend is broken.
      We just have to wait and see.  Breaks of the CP ma are apt to bring a new
      selling wave.  See the past SPY charts to get a sense of this:

      Friday's New Buy B7 had a Buy B17 Reinforcing It today (Monday). 

              
1) Bearish Seasonality  ----  this lasts until the 20th of October...
                  2) Head/Shoulders  --
a DJI close above 11700 is needed to abort the pattern...
                  3) Bernanke versus Republicans  --
Bernanke seems to be as sure in his opinions as the T-Partyers.
                   4) "Tax The Rich" versus "No New Taxes" -
Populist talk surely scares the wealthy who own most stocks.
                  5) Another US Debt Crisis Looms -
It's not over until the T-Party folks learn the advantages gov't offers.
                  6) European Austerity Policies Match Those of 1930 -
1923 Weimar Germany's experience is an obsession.
                  7) European Bankers Put Squeeze on Greece -
And they have the EEC making their demands for them.
                  8) American Bankers' Loans Dry up despite Their Profitability
- No pressure on them from Obama,
                              Geithner, the Fed or the T=Party-goers.  If the Gov't really wanted to stimulate,
                              it would encourage states to set up publicly owned banks like the Bank of ND.
                              California is looking into thjis possibility tohelp homeowners and small business folks.


  We see very strong Closing Powers.   Professionals' opinions fly in the face of prevailing skepticism and
  disgust at the market among many, many individual traders.  Go to any Yahoo site dealing with the general
  market or comments about the news and you will see this conflict of opinions.   Europeans and Asians, as a whole,
  are very bearish, too.  What do the professionals know who keep buying?   I presume it is that the FED is
  absolutely determined not to let the market drop. The Buy B17's bullish history can be seen here.

                   Friday's New Buy B7 versus

                  1) Bearish Seasonality,
                  2) Head/Shoulders
                  3) Bernanke versus Republicans
                   4) "Tax The Rich" versus "No New Taxes"

                  8) American Bankers' Loans Dry up despite Their Profitability

   
Can Friday's Peerless Buy B7s reverse the market when it faces so
    many negatives?  These signals occur mainly in the aftermath of Buy
    B12s on declines to the lower band.  Normally, they are reliable, though
    the Buy B7 two weeks ago gained very little facing the same forces.

    The DJI's Head/Shoulder's neckline was slightly violated.  10590 offers some
    last support.  The slight breaking of the DJI's closing saw multiple
    non-confirmations:
                      P-Indicator
                      V-Indicator
                      Accum. Index
                      IDOSC


  
  These nonconfirmations show there is support at 10600-10700.  But will
     it be enough to hold the market up if there are another series of very weak
     openings?  See the green line below and how its weakness has been
     fought by the blue line representing NY Professional buying.   The blue
     Closing Power has turned up from its rising 21-day ma.  This will help the Buy B17.
     Barring a DJI opening below 10590, traders have to be buyers now for another
     quick rally back above 11400.  A close below 10500 will be judged a Sell S10,
     whether or not the signal appears on the screen. 

     Our Stocks' Hotline has said to close out at nice profits half of the
     recently shorted "bearish MINCP stocks".  If you want to wait out
     the bearish seasonality for the next few weeks, you have my full appreciation
     and understanding.  There are a lot of negative forces at work now.  And
     the Professional buying we have just seen develop could easily dry up and
     be reversed.  I respect Head and Shoulders patterns. Normally I would
     wait for their bearish downside potential to play out or for the bearishness to
     be dissipated by the downtrend of the NYSE A/D Line being /   broken.   Without
     one of these, waiting now seems amply reasonable.    


   
  Fearless and Peerless traders should consider buying DIA, RGR and ALXN.

    The DJI's Head/Shoulder's neckline was violated.  10590 offers some
    last support.  The minimum downside projection using this pattern
    is 9800.  A decline back to 9650 would represent a 50% correction
    of the move up from 6500 to 12800.|

    I can't help point out that the DJI in 2007 at 14160 was up 16x from its
    low 24 years before.  In 1929, the DJI was up only 8x above its low 24
    years earlier.  A decline back to 7000 now would only test the very long-term
    DJI uptrend that starts back in 1900. At the same time, if the DJI can
    hold above 9500, or so, we could see the third major upswing since
    the March 2009 low.  So 9500 will be important.  Expect Obama to do
    a lot more to prevent a deeper decline.  I would think that the T-Party Congress
    will have to do more than say "balance the budget" and "no new taxes".
    Otherwise, we are probably all be doomed to see a repeat of 1930-1931.    

    Some would point out that the market has held up extraordinarily in
    the face of so many negatives.  But, I see no reason to buy here at the
    earlier lows when downside volatility is so great,  Even if we had a
    buy signal, I  would urge traders to let the bearishness of the DJI's
    head/shoulders pattern play itself out.  See the charts of past
    head/shoulders patterns where Buy B17s could not prevent a breaking
    of support and a DJI decline substantially lower: 1939, 1945 and 1952.
    When these patterns appear, it often helps to watch closely the
    downtrend of the NYSE A/D Line... It can't be good that even Gold is
    in a steep decline.  Bonds are the only haven now. 

    Hold all the short positions.  Our Stocks' Hotline is long 2 stocks and short
    more than a dozen.

                     Sell Signals, Bearish Seasonality, Head/Shoulders
                   Bernanke versus Republicans
                 "Tax The Rich" versus "No New Taxes"


   
I think we can expect the DJI to re-test 10700, given the operative Peerless Sell signals,
   the emerging head/shoulders pattern, the Republicans demand that Bernanke not
   try to stimulate the economy anymore and the tax-the-rich rhetoric of the Administration,
   Add all these negatives to the bearish seasonality for the next two weeks, in which the DJI
   rallies only 44% of the time typically since 1966 over the next two weeks. Because the
   P-Indicator and Accum. Index are quite positive, it is possible that we will get a buy signal
   on a decline to 10800.  Short-term trraders should have sold sort DIA or SPY today,
   as the Closing Power uptrends were broken.  Our Stocks' Hotline is overwhelmingly
   short bearish MINCP stocks.  These have mostly kept on declining, despite the rally.
   If they can't go up in a bullish period, what will they do in a very weak market?  It
   is significant, I think that so many more stocks are making new lows than new highs,
   that the number of MINCP stocks far exceeds MAXCP stocks and the NYSE A/D Line
   is on the verge of a break in its recent uptrendline, possibly ahead of the DJI itself.
   Our study of DJI head and shoulders patterns recommends shorting when the A/D Line
   uptrend is broken following the development of a symetrical right shoulders in a head
   and shoulders pattern.  In addition, there are a number of cases, where, despite a
   Peerless Buy signal, the DJI must play out the bearish potential in a completed
   head and shoulders pattern.  This means a close below 11700 would trump any Peerless
   buy signal until we see other evidence of a bottom.  My guess is that a bottom will
   be made near 9800 in early October.

-------------------   Closing Power (CP) Status Report: CHARTS:---------------------
   Major Market ETFS' CP downtrends were broken last Monday. 
   Short-term bullish Uprends are in place.
   The ETFs' Closing Powers have stretched a long ways above the 21-day ma.  Usually this brings a CP pullback
   closer to the 21-dma.  If it does and there is another move up by the CP, we will use the new steeper CP uptrendline.
    Near Term:
   
DIA above CP uptrendline - A close of 1.63 below the Opening is needed tomorrow to break the CP uptrend.
                                            DIA is still above its CP 21-dma while Openings are in decline.

                                                          Stay Bearishly Hedged

                       As for the general market, my observations from last night still stand.
                       Most likely, there will be a retreat from 11600 on the DJi and the apex of
                       right shoulder in the DJI's bearish continuation head and shoulders pattern.
                       Respect the seasonally bearish two-week period we are entering now with the
                       start of Fall.

                       Closing Powers changes of directions are reflected in Tiger's Candle Stick charts.
                       Blue Candle Stick bars imean the CP was rising.  Red means CP was falling that
                       day.   We use CP trendlines and moving averages to spot when a significant tend
                       change occurs.   "Popsickle" patterns in Candle Stick charts is another.

                      Here are some other notions for trading stocks with TigerSoft..

                      1) FSLR fooled us for a day last week.  It broke above its steep downtrending
                      closing Power for one day and then began a new steep decline.
                      The internals were weak and when the CLosing Power turned down again,
                       I recommended re-shorting the stock. As a bearish MINCP stock
                       it showed sustained selling pressure. Its declining CLosing Power turned
                       down at its falling 21-day ma. The 21-day ma of CP will have to be added to
                       the exploded graphs.

                      2) The immportance of sustained institutional selling has to be stressed.
                      Look for stocks with AI/200 scores under 80, or even lower whose
                      red distribution is growing. See the charts of FORM. TSL and TZOO

                       3) Another thing to understand is that as fewer growth stocks make
                       new highs, thjse that do get even more attention and move up
                       faster than normal. ALXN is an example of this.

                       4) Look for unusually posiitve or negative CLosing Power days.
                       These show Professionals jumping in, either as heavy buyers or
                       sellers. Expect prices to move in the direction the Pros want.
                       The old TigerSoft Candle Stick charts let you spot such unusual
                       Propfessional (blue) buying or selling. GR shows this to the upside.
                       MNTA shows it on the downside. Also see how WMGI's bullish breakout
                       was picked up on by a 5 straight Blue days.

   closer to the 21-dma.  If it does and there is another move up by the CP, we will use the new steeper CP uptrendline.
    Near Term:
DIA above CP uptrendline - A close of 2.36 below the Opening is needed tomorrow to break the CP uptrend.
                                            DIA is still above its CP 21-dma while Openings are in steep decline.
SPY above CP uptrendline - A close of 1.90 below the Opening would break the CP uptrend.
                                             SPY is still above its CP 21-dma while Openings are in steep decline.
QQQ above CP uptrendline - A close of 1.24 below the Opening would break the CP uptrend.

                                             QQQ is still above its CP 21-dma while Openings are in steep decline.
GLD   CP triangle - A close MORE than 3.46 above the Opening would break the CP DOWNtrend.

                                     Overseas Selling vs US Buying

              Peerless Remains on a Sell ...
Expect Much Keener Resistance Now,
                  Closing Power's Uptrend Shows US Professionals Are Buying
                  from Europeans.   Usually, the US Pros Win out so long as they
                  keep making Closings stay above Openings in N.Y.  They Must
                  Know Bernanke Is Going To Unveil A New Plan to Buy US Debt.
                  But they could be wrong.   And the start of Fall (tomorrow) often
                  brings a fall in the market.  Stay hedged with an emphasis on the Bearish
                 MINCP Stocks.  Wait to go short the ETFS until their CLosing
                  Power uptrends are broken.  

             The 6-day pattern of late has been a weak opening and a strong close. 
              Look for a strong opening and a weak close to signal a reversal.  This will
              change the color of the Tiger candlestic bars from to blue to red.  This has
              typically been a reversal point, for the last year...

         Foreign ETFs have been the weakest group we follow.  Europeans sold to American professionals.
         The DJI had been down more than 200 points, but recovered about half that.  The key US ETFs found support
         at their 21-day ma and then turned up.   Two immediate forces are in conflict.  Will big banks be bailed
         out of their exposure to Southern European Debt AND what will Bernanke do to lift the market. when
         the Fall (Autumn) starts? 

          As we are on a sell from Peerless and there appears to ample resistance at 11600 and the apex of
          the right shoulder in the DJI's head/shoulder pattern, I think a retreat back to 11000 is likely after
          the Fed announces its new policy at the end of the month.

          But, as long as the key Closing Pwers are rising, the market will not fold and any decline is apt to be
          shallow.  If the Closing Powers were to break their uptrends, look for a decline back to the neckline at
          10800, and if that is broken to 9700.  As long as the  key ETFs (QQQ, SPY and DIA) do not break
          their CP uptrend-lines, there is a good chance in October for a move by the DJI back up to 12000. 
          The seasonality of the next two weeks works against this.  But one thing I am struck by is how the
          weekly DJI chart shows we have seen only two major surges upward since the March 2009 bottom.  
          A third one often occurs, according to Elliot Wave analysis, and before a big drop and a bear market,
          we usually see the weekly A/D Line  failure to confirm a new hhigh.  That has not been seen yet. The low
          interest rate environment does encourage speculation, and this may help explain the NASDAQ's
         outperforming the DJI.

           Peerless Remains on a Sell ... Expect Much Keener Resistance,

           Closing Power's Uptrend Shows Professionals Have Been Bullish...              

         Foreign ETFs have been the weakest group we follow.  The Austrian economic school of thought
         dominates all the European governments at the moment.  My studies convince me that this is very bearish,
         The mainstream media completely neglects this as they talk about heroic efforts in Brussels, Paris
         and Berlin to save tre Euro and bailout Greece, etc.  The truth is that the Austrian school of economics
         fixates on balanced budgets.  This is a 19th century philosophy.  This was applied full blown and
         blindly in 1930-1932 .  High unemployment was turned into a Depression.  The only major country
         to recover economically in the 1930s was NAZI Germany, where politics over-ruled archaic economic
         thinking.  The Budget in the US shows a deep deficit.  Despite what we are told, this is what keepijng us
         out of a Depression.  It may explain why the US stock market is out-performing foreign stock exchanges.
         If I am right, the only way the US will be able to be avoid being dragged down is to put up trade barriers
         and consciously rebuild its own industries for a much bigger internal market with lots of government
         assistance.

                                                           BEARISH TECHNICAL SIGNS

         The 5-day straight-up rally this week has left the DJI 2.3% over its  21-day ma.
         For the next two weeks, iIt will have a harder time advancing. It has reached the resistance
         of the apex of a right shoulder in a potential continuation head and shoulder
         pattern. While a move above the apex, about 11600, would force shorts to admit
         that this bearish pattern is self-destructing, any decline now would tend to
         confirm the pattern and cast its shadow over the market.  Cynics have to believe
         the market will do what is least expected.  That would mean a rally above 10700
         next and a move to 12000.  With the Closing Power still rising, that is a possibility.
         But breadth turned mediocre on Friday and I doubt if the European bankers will get
         the governments of Northern Europe to guarantee the debts of Greece, Italy,
         Spain and Ireland.   One currency for so many widely different countries was a
         step too far. But just as America cannot accept its limitations in Afghanistan,
         so, too, the Pan-Europeans stubbornly cannot see how difficult their task is.

         A hesitation, at the very least, should be expected of the market now.  Seasonality
         has just become distinctly bearish.    Since 1965, the next three trading
         days after 9/18 are down 62.2% of the time. Over the next week, a decline in
         the DJI occurs in 60% of the last 45 years, with it falling 55.6% of the time
         over the next two weeks and 51.1% over the next month. The end of the month
         bounce may be missing htis year. Historians have shown that the stock market
         has a 2:1 downward bias between the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah) - Sept. 28th,
         2011 and the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) - October 7th-8th.
            http://www.chrisperruna.com/2007/09/10/sell-rosh-hashanah-buy-yom-kippur/  

         Technically, the DJI may be vulnerable now for a different reason. It has almost
         reached the upper 2.5% band and could easily stall out, based on how weak
         its upward momentum is when we smooth the data to nullify the typical
         monthly buying-selling market cycle by using a 21-day ma.  It closed
         2.3% of the 21-day ma with the annualized rate of change of the DJI's
         21-dma only .105.  Added to this, the V-Indicator is negative. Historically,
         since 1966, a decline to the lower band occurs in 13 of 18 cases that show such a lack of    
         momentum and a negative V-I Indicator with the DJI 2.3% to 2.5% up from the 21-day ma.
         In 4 cases the DJI hesitated and then broke-out and advanced strongly. On the bullish
         side, I have to add that this time the momentum and current Accum.Index (IP21)
         are the highest in the cases studied.   Below are the cases.

                      Cases since 1966 - Januaries omitted to facilitate calculations.

                                 OPENING POWER versus CLOSING POWER
                                        Peerless Remains on a Sell

                                       More Thoughts on the Test B9 I mentioned this last weekend.

   A rally up from the DJI's neckline to the potential apex of  the right shouler
  in the continuation head/shoulders pattern was not unexpected just based
  on the DJI's price pattern.  Breadth has been good on the rally, but the
  indexes are still below their 200-day ma.  We have to wait for the Closing
  Power uptrends to be violated to go short the major market ETFs.  Though the
  QQQ has been the strongest   ETF, rhe best performing groups remain
  defensive stocks (bonds, utilities and the high AI/200-bullish CP biotechs). 
  See biotech leader, ALXN's nice breakout today, along with CPHD's.  

  We must wait now for the Closing Power uptrends to break to know that
  meaningful resistance has been reached. 


  I should have been more bullish this past weekend and suggested long
  positions in the strongest of the ETFs, QQQ.  That could have been
  justified on several grounds:

    1) Risk:Reward ratio was modestly favorable. If the DJI support at 10700 had
     been violated,  we could have quickly sold long positions,   To the upside there
     looked to be 3% upside potential.

    2) Closing Power uptrends usually win out in the face of Opening Power
     downtrends.  And playing a CP uptrend while it lasts can sometimes
     bring bigger gains than one might initially expect, because Openings
     may start to be much stronger if there is good news.

   3) The Test-B9 I mentioned this weekend, which occurred on Friday's close,
     had not been wrong since 1939, when Germany's invasion of Czechoslovakia
     routed the market and the test B9 signal of March failed.   Invasions that start
     world wars have to be considered exceptional events.  In that case, there
     was a clear head/shoulders pattern to warn us away.  As readers know,
     head/shoulders patterns often signal or portend events like invasions,
     wars, assassinations, Presidential heart attacks,  The Japanese attack
     on Pearl Harbor, the North Korean attack on South Korea, the Cuban
     Missile Crisis, Iraq's invasion of Kuwait and the 9/11 attack on the World Trade
     Center all saw head/shoulders patterns develop, usually before the event.

      We see a potential continuation Head/Shoulders pattern now developing
      in the DJI.  I think the weakness owes to the economic malaise in the
      US and the unending struggle to prop up the Euro in the face of great
      inequalities between European nations.  Let us hope, the Fed figures
      out how to keep the DJI from falling below 10700 and the neckline there.

                                 OPENING POWER versus CLOSING POWER
                                        Peerless Remains on a Sell

          Professionals are clearly bullish.   Closing Powers are rising and
          the number of MAXCP (CP new highs) is 9x the number of MINCP
          new lows.  Having plumbed for and found support, the market
          must rally and find resistance.   We can wait for the Closing Power
          uptrends to break to know that meaningful resistance has been
          reached.

         Last night my 1998 MSFT Front Page failed in the middle of doing
         the hotline.  I wanted to post those case since 2000 when, as now,
 
        the QQQ's Closing Power was rising steeply while Opening Power
         was falling.  The conclusion I reach from the handful of cases is
         that the Closing Power wins out for a while, certainly enough for
         nimble traders to take advantage of QQQ rallies for a few very good
         days, like today's.  But when the Closing Power does finally break its
         uptrend, if the QQQ rally quickly stall, there is a big decline.
         And if there are multiple Sells operating and a key (here-11700)
         DJI support failure, a much bigger decline follows.  This was certainly
         the case in 2008.  Professionals quickly reversed their long positions
         to short positions.

         The strong QQQ was turned back today from its falling 65-dma. 
         It CP uptrend is still in place.  It would take only a .46 close below the
         opening to break the CP uptrend in the QQQ.  The DIA and SPY
         are being held back by bearish continuation head and shoulders
         patterns.

        
Stay short the MINCP stocks that have still have falling CPs and go
         short DIA or SPY when the Closing Power uptrend-line is broken.

         It is true, the market is acting well in the face of so much weak
         economic news, here and in Europe.   Trading with the Professionals'
         Closing Power reduces stress and adds to profits.

         The Hotline will get a little longer soon, as soon as I master the
         mysteries of Oracle's Dream Weaver.

                                        Peerless Remains on a Sell

        This hotline is being written while I am having computer problems.  So, it must be
        short,  I think the rising Closing Power trend may hold up for a while, but I fear
        the weakness in the falling Opening Power will be too much for it.  The primary
        problems for the bulls now are: Peerless remains on a Sell; the DJI shows a bearish
        continuation head/shoulders pattern; Septembers are often bad months; Openings
        (representing overseas trading) are very weak; volume keeps rising on down-days;
        and now there is a growing mutiny in the Fed against Bernanke's cheap money
        policies.  It's true the NASDAQ and the QQQ are now outperforming the DJI and
        SP-500.  But there are too many negatives to ignore.  Add shorts to DIA and SPY
        if the Closing Power uptrend lines are broken.   Hold short the bearish MINCP stocks
        as long as their Closing Power trends remain down.

                                                 It's Hard To Be Too Cyncial
      Peerless Remains on A Sell.  If Support Holds, A 3% Rally Seems Likely.

         Wall Street professionals, government finance ministers' and the Fed probably
         orchestrated today's buying right at the DJI's critical H/S neckline-support.  The
         timeliness of this buying  suggests coordinated buying.  Will it continue if European
         selling again brings another big sell-off tomorrow?  As I write this, the Futures show the DJI is
         down 61.  We will just have to wait and see.  The Peerless Sells advise that  the efforts to
         hold up the market will not succeed.  

         I would suggest that rumors that China would buy big chunks of the Italian debt were
         spread to explain and reinforce a desperate rally attempt.  Interestingly, all the DIA and
         SPY rally occurred in the critical last hour, though word of plans for a rally was
         leaked earlier in the day.  The strongest Closing Power Biotechs turned up much earlier.
         Someone on TV said the early decline just could not be extended.  "It was as like trying to
         push a big ballon under water."  True enough, the Peerless lower 3.5% band usually
         does act as support.

         If the Fed is the coordinator of this buying, then I would expect the support
         near 10700-10800 to hold.  The Fed is the natural coordinator of such an effort.
         And the FED is just too big to fight.   But if the FED is not behind this buying, look
         out below.  The rally today was a sign of desperation.  In this case, the weakness
         in the Opening Powers from European selling will just be too much for the NY professionals
         who are trying to prevent a bigger decline.

         
         Clearly, the Fed draws trendlines on the DJI.  They do this when they are very worried. 
         Their secretive, unannounced buying, in their minds, serves to Increase "asset prices" and
         aid the economic recovery.  If pumping up of the market is a legitimate and worthy tactic,
         why does the Fed not just admit and report their activities?  Fear of being too political
         is one reason.  Many do not believe the Fed should engage in stock manipulation.  My problem
         with it is only that it does not left all boats.  Main Street is left with relatively less and at
         that much greater disadvantage in the great American sport of buying politicians.  But
         values aside, our Closing Power does give us an edge in spotting such insider and
         professional buying.  Opening Power shows us Public and overseas buying and selling.
         Usually the Professionals win out, but not always.  When the Professionals make a mistake,
         they are quick to reverse, unlike the public.

         The Peerless Sell signals were not reversed with a Buy today.   A more complicated head and
         shoulders in still present in the DJI.   This is still bearish.  A breakdown below 10700
         would set up a dangerous situation and, very likely, a DJI decline of another 1000
         points..

         I suggest staying short the most bearish MINCP stocks and again waiting for the
         CP uptrend support to break before shorting more of SPY or DIA. 
If you are short
         them already, I would close this position out on early weakness tomorrow only
         if you are not comfortable with a potential 2% - 3% rally from the lower band.  To say
         this again, traders who are not comfortable riding out paper losses of 3% are encouraged
         to use the Closing Power trendbreaks' statistics posted below.  Example: The DIA did rally
         today up the requisite and specified amount, 1.45, above today's opening to warn of a
         reversal.  The DIA opened at 108.46.  The DIA move above 109.91 "restored" the CP uptrend. 
         Adding .10 for more certainty, one might have used the data from last night's hotline to close
         out the short DIA position at 110.01 in the last half hour. 

         Tomorow, if the DIA turns down more than 1.35 + .14 (points margin of error),
         or 1.49, from the opening, I would go short it again tomorrow. 

         Please understand that mostly, I would trade in the direction that Peerless gives, which is
         now DOWN because of the active Sells.   Going long now is not recommended on a CP
         downtrend-break.

        ==>  The Peerless Sell signals have brought an important test of Support.
          A one hour rally has to be treated with some suspicion.

                                   All the DJI gains came in the last 15 minutes.

                       wpe1B5.jpg (4510 bytes)

       It was in the last hour that the DJI rallied, supposedly on news that China would
       step in and buy Italian debt.  My sense is that the US government was heavily
       involved in trying to support the market at a critical juncture.  Whether the FED
       actually bought in key ETFs and futures or help arrange a consortium of big
       banks, we'll never know probably.  The main thing to know is how intent professionals
       are now in the US to avoid letting the DIA, SPY and QQQ break the key price support 
       they tested.  If they fail, and the DJI breaks below 10700, expect them quickly to
       switch to the short side. 

DIAEX1.BMP (1440054 bytes)

       The DJI may still complete a bearish continuation head and shoulders pattern.  The
       pattern would have two shoulders on each side of the head.  If this develops
       on schedule, we will see another DJI rally back up to 11500.  More compicated,
       but still symetrical head and shoulders patterns are not uncommon.  The main
       thing we should see here if there is a neckline support failure and a bigger decline
       coming, will be reduced volume on the right shoulders and weaker readings
       from the Accumulation Index.

           ==>  The Peerless Sell signals have brought an important test of Support.. 

         The DJi has traced out a bearish head and shoulders formation over the last 13 trading
          days.  The neckline-support the DJI has reached represents key support.  A closing
          penetration of it is expected to bring a further decline by the DJI to 9680.  That level
          was support in June 2010 and also is a 50% retracement of the gain from 6570 (March 2009)
          to 12810 (April 2011).   Continuation head and shoulders patterns like this appeared in
          August-September 1930, April-May 2008 and July-August, just before severe declines.
          They are circled in red in the two charts below.  Based on the absence of a new buy
          signal from Peerless, the bearish seasonality of September-October and the way that
          daily volume has refularly picked up on down-days, I have to think we will see much
          lower prices soon.  The political stalemate in Washington jst when economic leadership
          is needed and the deflationary fiscal policies in Europe provide ample reinforcement.
          Something more will be needed by the FED very soon to avert another sell-off.
          Watch GE snd AMTD on Monday.   15 is well-tested near-term GE support.  Brokerage
          AMTD is at its support of 13.6.   A violation of these would be bad.  Bank stocks like
          BAC,  C (26.74 -1.24), GS (102.25-2.54), GSBC (15.72 -.67).  HBAN (4.6 -.2), 
          HCBK (5.53 - .15), JPM (32.08 -1.43), MS (15.28-.56) and UBS (11.87 -.77) are leading
          the decline.  Short them and stay short until their CP downtrends are broken to the upside.

         The DJI is now 2.4% below the 21-day ma with both the P-Indicator and Accumulation
         Index still positive.  This technical configuration CAN be bullish, but it also is just as likely
         in history to immediately precede a big drop.  This adds great importance to what happens
         next week.  In the 4 cases when the DJI was below its 200-day ma, which is true now, there
         were 3 instances of severe declines.   On the other hand, this has always been a bullish
         configuration since 1958.  Peerless has not given a reversing Buy signal and the Closing
         Power uptrends have been violated.   I recommended shorting DIA and SPY when the
         CP uptrend was seen to be breaking.   I would stay short the bearish MINCP stocks advised
         and close out long positions whent their CP uptrends are violated.

                                          Think Wall Street Here.  Not Main Street.

       To foreign observers and some people here, too, the fate of Obama's modest
      Jobs' Creation Proposals will test the viability of the American political system
      as the economy flounders without guidance from Washington.   If Repubs say "no"
      to Obama, we can expect the economic situation to worsen, as it is in Europe
      where Austrian economic theory and austerity reign, not Keynesianism.  And in
      this situation,  we can expect Obama to blame, pretty effectively I think, Congressional
      Republicans for lack of compromise. 

      Remember that Wall Street secretly likes Obama.  He has protected them.  He has not
      regulated them, jailed any of them or taken away any of their bonuses.  He has given
      them a 27 month rally.  So, more stalemate may actually be to Wall Street's liking. 
      Many there want him to have another term.  But if the Repubs say "yes" to the proposals,
      the very modesty of the proposals is likely to produce longer economic stagnation, not much
      growth and much more widespread dislike of Obama.  In that case, he might be defeated
      in 2012 and Wall Street might have to cope with a much more radical tea-party type, with all
      the uncertainties that that would bring. 

      Bernanke could and will help.  But he is holding his fire until he is needed more
      and he can extract some good publicity out of what he finally does. 

      Without Bernanke's immediate help, I would think that the stock market will soon
      go into a September-October slump.
The Peerless Sell signals, much greater downside
      volatility and heavier volume on down-days are bearish.   But for now, Professionals
      are trying to run prices
back closer to the 65-day ma.  In theory, that gives the SP-500
      fifty to sixty more points of upside and the DJI six hundred more potential points to rally. 
      In actuality, the DJI's upside is much less I think.   It may trace out a bearish continuation
      head and shoulders pattern if it cannot get past 11570.   Watch the number of MINCP stocks. 
     Their numbers have shrunk to only 25.  Before another plunge, I would expect that number
      to move up quickly. 

       I like the shorts we have in the bearish MINCP stocks and the longs in the best of the
       still strong biotechs.  When the Closing Power uptrends for the DJI and SPY are broken,
       I would add short sales there.  Note that we do not have to wait for the next day's
       opening to go short these.  About an hour before the close in NY, see if the DIA and
       SPY are below the Opening by the amounts shown below.

QQQ above CP uptrendline - A close of 0.44 below the Opening would break CP uptrend. 

GLD above CP downtrendline - A close of 0.44 below the Opening would restore the CP downtrend.

           ==>  The Peerless Sell signals, nearby overhead resistance, higher
          volume on declines and bearish September seasonality argue for another test
          of support when the CP uptrends are violated.

Intermediate-Term:
                  Multiple Sells Still Operate: the S9V, S12 and NASDAQ S4
                       Bode Poorly for Weakest Month of Year, September.
        But first, tomorrow, Bernanke and Obama Will Try To Boost The Market

    
One of the costliest mistakes a trader can make is forgetting that the market falls steeply only a small
       portion of the time.  It is therefore often a mistake, unless one has a lot of capital and strong nerves, to
       ride out volatile rallies if one can avoid them and to fall in love with the short side.  Even back in 2008,
       when the market was falling much of the time, we found it was important for traders to observe the breaks
       in the Closing Power downtrends when they were short.   Covering when the Closing Power broke its
       downtrend locked in great gains, missed few bigger shorting gains, preserved capital and left one
       fresh to look for new short sales when their CLosing Power uptrends were broken.

       Right now, the Closing Powers are rising for the ETFs.  Most of us would probably be better off waiting
       for the uptrending CLosing Power to break to go short.  You can see that we can now tell you in advance
       what it will take the next day near the close to break a CLosing Power trend.  The new exploded
       Tiger charts should help traders a lot.  See that the QQQ chart above shows that it will take a -.79
       difference between the close and the opening there to break the uptrend.  You do not have to take
       the next day's opening prices.  You can take the prices near the close.
     

     
I would stick with the short sales in the Bearish MINCP stocks as long as their CLosing Powers remain
       in downtrends and now wait for the new rising Closing Power trend to be broken to initiate shorts
       on the key ETFs.  I said yesterday that there are a some excellent biomed BULLISH MAXCP stocks
       that traders might hold long while their Closing Powers are rising.  Select Biomedicals, Select REITS,
       Bonds and Gold Stocks are the only groups that show more than 50% of their stocks are above their
       65-day ma.  This signifies a defensive market, and not most likely the start of a powerful new advance.
       But presently, there are many more MAXCP stocks than MINCP stocks.  Professionals see more opportunity
       on the long side. 

       Today's rally had much to do with  (1) Expectations that the speeches by Bernanke and Obama
       tomorrow (Thursday) will bring in new buyers, probably late in the advance; (2) Germany's
       Supreme Court not disallowing its government buying higher risk bonds of Greece, Itally, Spain...
       to allow the Euro to continue to operate as a major reserve currency; and (3) word that House Republican
       Eric Cantor might be willing support some ostimulus proposals. 

       As there is so much overhead resistance and volume is low, I doubt if this rally will take the
       DJI up past 11700.  But there is no point in being stubborn or always short.  Right now the Closing Powers
       are rising and stimulus plans from Obama and Bernanke will surely help bolster the market near-term.... 


                                                                    The Old BUY B14?

       Though NYSE up volume dwrarfed NYSE down volume today, there was no Peerless Buy B14 from
       our Peerless software dated March 1, 2009 or later.  If you are using a current version of Peercomm
       (the 8 button screen), you will see that the top button on the right takes you to a new version of
       Peerless.  If you use the second button down on the right, you can see the Peerless signals, as of
       July 2007.

       The more recent software did not give a Buy B14 today.  The older software does.  Back-testing
       has shown the value of not allowing a Buy B14 until a month has passed since an S9 or S12. 
       See effects of this and other exclusionary rules in the table below, where I went over the trading results
       of the new Peerless and the Old Peerless Buy B14 signals. 

       The older versions' trading gains average only half the newer's gains.  In addition, note how many more
       Buy B14s there are recently, especially when using the older Peerless.  This is the result, I would say, of how
       dominant now is member firms' short-term computerized trading, all in the context of leveraged long and
       short ETFs and no restrictions on short selling on down-ticks.  Too many of the recent Buy B14s from the older
      Peerless bring very small gains, with none being more than 3.7%. 

       I think that this demonstrates the following. 
                     1) Get and use the newer Peerless. 
                     2) Be sure to input the correct and corrected data.  Use our Data.
                     3) The numerous older Buy B14s are only very short-term Buys.

I would stick with the short sales in the Bearish MINCP stocks and now wait for the new
       rising Closing Power trend to be broken to initiate shorts on the key ETFs.  There are a few
       biomed BULLISH MAXCP stocks that traders might buy and hold as long as their Closing Powers
       are rising. See how the Closing Powers of these have made new high and they continue to show
       high institutional accumulation:  ELGX, LMAT, JAZZ, ALXN and VRUS.  These stocks are, of course,
       viewed as being much more independent of the general economic slowdown.  As fewer and
       fewer stocks continue to rally, performance investors must pour more and more money into
       these stocks.  If you believe that the Administration and the Fed will be able to hold the market
       up until after 2012, these are surely among the stocks to buy.

                                                        Obama's Stimulus Seems Very Modest

       Obama's Thursday Speech about Jobs has been leaked.  
Obama to propose $300 billion jobs plan
      
Wall Street is safe.  There are no challenges to its supremacy. As should be expected now from Obama,
       there are no proposals for new taxes on Wall Street or the super-wealthy.  Obama's Public Works proposals,
       extension of Unemployment benefits and lowering of the payroll tax are very modest and most likely will
       not be passed by the anti-Government spending House, anyway.  Even if they are passed, they are not nearly
       enough to turn the economy around and end the malaise.  

       More market weakness, threrefore, seems likely as the prospects for more Main Street/ US Manufacturing
       weakness and under-consumptiom are understood better.    The fiscal stimulus in these proposals will
       do very little to lower the jobless rate.  Look for downbeat comments by Roubini tomorrow. The humble size
       of Obama's Jobs' proposal may, however,   energize another Democrat to challenge Obama in 2012. 
       As Wall Street has gotten comfortable with Obama and knows not to pay attention to any populist rhetoric
       he might let slip out, such a challenge in the Presidential Primaries next year might hurt the market.  

        Let's see how far the near-term rally predicted by the now rising CLosing Power trends can boost the market. 
        My guess is perhaps to 11400.

                   Weak Openings Are Caused by Market Weakness in Europe

      Many in Europe's poorer countries and the poorer regions of the UK believe that the austere fiscal policies
       imposed by central bankers signal them out for the most sacrifices and much higher unemployment. 
       It remains to be seen if better-off Germany will continue to prop up and guarantee the debt of
       Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal. 


       Protests in Italy against Austerity Programs -  Italians vow protests over austerity will grow
       Protests in Spain against Balanced Budget Amendment - Spanish Unions Announce Protests Against Constitutional Reform
      Wales and Scotland wants more fiscal autonomy,  The 2011 Devolved Elections in the UK
                                          .    
       Recent weakness of the EURO and the Swiss decision not to let their currency rise anymore,
       has had the effect of strengthening the Dollar as a reserve currency.   This gives the Fed and
       Bernanke much more leeway and freedom to pursue a new QEIII program of Fed printed money
       to buy US Treasury debt and keep interest rates very low.  This may not stimulate the economy
       but would certainly boost Wall Street.  This policy boosts Gold, commoditiy prices and the stock
       market.  The Administration and the FED definitely do not want a market Crash before the
       2012 Presidential Election.  See how the DJIA was lifted from September 2010 to May 2011.  Many
       consider the Fed's heavy buying of Treasury debt in this period to be the cause.  Today, the
       Dollar rose and interest rates fell.  Note how the US markets rose today after opening down more
       than 200.

What Would It Take To Get A
                      Closing Power Trend Reversal?


                                         
  DIA needs to be  .8811 above Opening on Tuesday 
                                            SPY needs to be  ,874 above Opening on Tuesday 
                                            QQQ needs to be  .806 above Opening on Tuesday.

           (IMPORTANT: More than this will be needed to make the break visible on the yearly charts.)

       The Closing Power uptrends were broken quite decisively.  It is true that the DJI's price uptrend is still rising. 
       The DJI's price uptrendline crosses at about 10913, still 327 DJI points lower.  The NYSE A/D Line is also
       rising. The DJI closed today exactly at its 21-dma.   This is much better support when it is rising.  It is now falling. 
       The number of new lows has over-taken new highs and the number of MINCP stocks has overtaken the number
       of MAXCPs.  Volume picked up on the key ETFs today on the decline.  The Closing Power also is back to its
       21-dma.  That may act as support briefly on Monday after a weak opening. 


       New Tiger software now permits us ot see how much of an improvement it would take from the next day's
       opening to break a selected Closing Power trendline.   In the QQQ chart  below, see that
the Closing Power
       downtrend would be broken tomorrow if the blue CP Line were to rise +.806.
This means the Close will have
       to be +.806 above the opening.   Actually, a little more than than this is needed to be decisive and to make
       it visible on the 1-year chart.

                             New Falling 21-day ma  Sell S9Vs since 1966  

          
With this signal the DJI must close between 2.4% and 3.95% over the 21-dma with the
           V-Indicator falling and the 21-dmaROC must be below -.10.  Five previous cases.
           Afterwards, the DJI always fell to the lower band.  In one case, there was a paper
           loss of a little more than 3%.  The most recent case is the only one that would
           not have produced a normal Sell S9.  Better breadth this time is the difference.

           The better breadth and strength in defensive dividend paying stocks reflect
           the Feds' easy money policies.  But easy money does not necessarily

                 1) Corporations won't, don't need to and are not required to invest in the US,
                 2) State and Local Government are running deficits and laying people off,
                 3) The average consumer is tapped out and cannot borrow from the banks
                 4) Vast sums are lost because of foreign wars and contractor corruption.

          We are again back to the issue of political gridlock and the failure of our political
          leadership to address the issues above and thereby help Main Street not just
          Wall Street.  I do not see how the contradictions between Main Street and Wall
          Street can be resolved without Wall Street taking a lot more hits.  The biggest
          corporations are mutinational.   The 1930s' lessons suggest national solutions
          will probably have to be attempted, including tariffs and restrictions on export of
          capital.  Wall Street will not like this at all.

                                      BIG BANKS' FRAUD SELLING BUNDLED MORTGAGES

        wpe1B5.jpg (11443 bytes)  Big Banks are to be sued for
        mortgage fraud in how they packaged and resold them.  This was reported tonight.
        It will cause a weak opening tomorrow.   Goldman is probably the most vulnerable.
        This is not new news, except insofar as the Obama Adminsitration has chosen finally to
        actively prosecute them.   Goldman knew these mortgages were poor investments.
        They set up a hedge fund to sell short $10 billion woth of them in 2007, apart from all the credit
        default swaps they also bought.  Proving fraud should not be hard.
        See my blog of 5/20/2009:

        Washington and Wall Street.

                                                                 New Sell S9V?

        Yesterday the DJI closed 3.1% over a falling 21-day ma with the V-Indicator a -49. Research
        this weekend will have to be done to see if this tests well as a good Sell signal to reverse
        the current Peerless Buys.  It certainly can't be bullish.  Fortunately, we have only  a few long
        positions.  I hesitate to make short sale recommendations while Peerless is on a regular
        Buy.  I would suggest going short some of the Bearish MINCP Stocks, always using the
        Closing Power downtrendline to know how long to say short.   

       The Peerless DJIA Buys B12/B7 and B14 still operate, but yesterday
I decided to take profits
        in many of the stocks bought for this rally on our Tiger Stocks' Hotline, and mentioned that
        here on the HL.  Volume was too low on the rally to eat up the expected over-head supply.
        And 50% retracements had been achieved of what was lost in the late July-early August
        decline The new DIA and SPY Exploded charts' Closing Power uptrends have today been
        violated.  Breaks cannot yet be seen on the year-charts, owing to scaling differences. 
        The QQQ's CP uptrend has not been broken, but the Peerless NASDAQ chart shows
        multiple Sell S4s. 

        NASDAQ S4s are reliable.  There have been 15 earlier cases since 1990.  In 8 of the 15
        cases, the NASDAQ declined immediately.   There were 2 big paper losses, in 2000 and 2001,
        of 14% and 22%.  But they were clearly early warnings.  In fact, In only 3 cases did the
        market not enter a bear market soon, if it was not already in one.  These signals occur
        because the NASDAQ has risen more than 2.5% over 21-dma with the Tiger Accum. Index
        and Relative Strength "NASDJI" in negative territory.  Recall that I warned this was too much
        a defensive rally.  The more speculative NASDAQ lags the DJI when this is true.  As a result
        of this study, the next Peerless will change the IP21 requirement to -be below -.01 and
        disallow the signal of the NASDAQ is more than 5.1% over the 21-dma..
         
         Here is the
track record since 1988 of the Peerless NASDAQ Sell S4.

         Another condition to be concerned about is the fact that the DJI yesterday closed
         more than 3% over the 21-dma with the V-Indicator negative. 
The track record for such
         a V-Indicator NNC will have to be posted this weekend....


         I think we have to sell the DIA position we bought a week ago on strength tomorrow.
         following the expected weak opening.   It used to be that the trading day before Labor Day
         was up 67% of the time.  Arthur Merrill studied the DJI between 1890 and 1984 and showed this.
         My own research can only say that the DJI has risen 62.2% of the time in the 3 trading days
         following September 1st.    Unfortunately, it rises only 42.2% of the time over the next 21
         trading days and loses  0.7%.
