Mish's Daily
By Mish Schneider
It should be no surprise that that market was weak on Tuesday.
On Monday the Modern Family was generally weak with IWM leading the way lower.
A cursory look at the patterns of the charts of the modern family shows how similar their patterns all are.
Rally into a downward sloping moving average, stall, and then begin to roll over.
With a picture like this, weakness will likely lead to more weakness.
The media will always frame the day’s price action in the context of the news events.
However, news events that are not unexpectedly bullish or bearish are secondary determinants of the market’s direction.
The mood of the market and Modern Family is such that, in the absence of any unexpectedly bullish news, the market’s likely direction is sideways or down.
When will this change?
Until the Modern Family cheers up. I’ll remain cautious.
Best wishes for your trading,
