MATA: PATTERNS


MATASII SYNTHESIS:

  • Chart #1 is how many are looking at the current S&P 500's overhead resistance,
  • The conclusion from this chart is that is has found resistance four times since October's initial weakness at the same point - and failed each time,
  • The logical conclusion is that is will find support at a similar lower level that has held previously.
  • The problem with this analysis is it is too short term in nature.

  • Chart #2 is a similar approach but gas added simple moving averages (20, 50 & 200),
  • The moving averages suggest that since the 20 SMA has turned up and the 200 SMA appears to be adding support that after a further near term consolidation, the market will break the previous 4 overhead resistance points.
  • Again, the problem with this analysis is it is too short term in nature as well as the particular SMA's used.

  • Chart #3 goes all the way back to the 2008 Financial Crisis and the 2008 market lows,
  • This analysis suggests that we have simply experienced an expected consolidation before likely heading higher.
  • The problem here is that the recent correction didn't touch the linear trend support line as well as appearing as though the market may be starting to go parabolic.

  • A better way to consider Chart #3 is shown in Chart #4 where we are using a log scale,,
  • Here we see a classic textbook underside resistance test,
  • We are getting closer to the right way to look at overhead resistance.
