In my view - it is plausible IBD is interpreting the market action as opening up the possibility to more gains and extending the ‘Melt Up’. I’m open to that as well as stated repeatedly in recent reports:

  • recent action shows bullish “bought up” patterns

  • we have not yet seen Leading Stocks getting hit hard on big volume with the indices down big on big volume closing at or near the lows of the day . . . . . . . . if/when this arrives I will be flashing warning signs for sure

Liquidation Heat Map - Two Week Time Frame

  • I don’t make predictions

  • The Money Flow is Red on the Daily and very wishy washy on the Weekly bouncing back and forth Red/Green . . . . . . . translation: regardless of the moves in the exchange rate at THIS MOMENT the Money Flow is not exactly bullish (which could change with anything unexpected at the meeting) . . . . . . . but the reality is right now MF is not all that supportive

  • I do not know what the Fed will or will not do at this meeting outside of the obvious market expectations already baked in

  • It is plausible and possible that the market wants to grab that liquidity currently above the market price . . . . . . . . . will it grab it and reject from there (technically another Lower High) or will it grab and use it as fuel to go test that $118.5Kish?????

  • Even if it shoots up to that liquidity and gets rejected it could still form a Higher Low from the $107Kish spot and maintain a bullish effort to keep rising

  • A firm rejection however (and confirmed on the Weekly Time Frame later in the week and with MF) could lead to new lows below $107Kish
