All the T’s will have Expired By 1:10 on Friday 3/5/10

  
The above chart shows the daily close of the S&P 500.  Take special notice of the small brown T within the much larger Orange T on this chart.  This small T expired on Tuesday of this week March 2, 2010.  It is hard to tell how much influence the large orange T will have on the expiring brown T and the direction of market prices at this time.  It should be noted that the market has noticably slowed in the last two days since this T expired. 




 





The two (2) charts above show the intraday 10-minute prices of the DIA or Diamonds.  The Diamonds are an ETF that is a proxy for the Dow Jones Industrial Average.  The current brown T is similar to the brown T in the daily S&P 500 chart.  The brown T in the DIA 10-minute charts will expire at 1:10 PM on Friday March 5,2010. 
George Rahal has pointed out on his blog White Magic and its Exposure that markets have a tendency to top out the day that job reports are announced. The monthly job report is due at 8:30 AM tomorrow Friday March 5, 2010.  With all these negative signs, I am looking to put on a short position Friday afternoon.  I will post my observations and any executions when I do.   DC

Thanks for this update, DC. It helps to get confirmation from separate analysis. I was hoping for an update.
