December S&P E-mini Futures: The market is headed for 1240-50. Today's day session range estimate is 1213-1233.

QQQ: Now headed for 59.00.

TYX (thirty year bond yield): The 30 year bond yield is on its way to 5.40%.

December Crude: The market is now headed for 55-60. Resistance above the market is at 90.

Please pardon the repost, Carl. Not sure if you saw this on a previous thread. I understand if you choose not to respond, but wanted to be sure you saw this:

Carl,
Here is a daily chart of the ten year note.

It is making what I believe is a bull flag. If you agree, and from your daily guesstimates it appears that you do, then why are you bearish on equities?

In the past you have explained that rising rates signal the market's expectation of future growth. Why is it different this time?

Hi Carl
Just a thought is all at this point looking at weekly charts
on dow.
week of :
march 2 2009 ( low )
june 28 2010 ( low )
oct 24 2011 ( high ? )
bottom bottom top count .
week of :
march 14 2011 ( low )
july 4 2011 ( high )
oct 24 2011 ( high ? )
month of :
feb 2009 ( low )
june 2010 ( low )
oct 2011 ( high ? )
July 18 2011 plus 104 calendar days = sunday oct 30 th
july 18 plus 102-113 =
oct 28th-nov 8th
all are aligned for what its worth .
seasonal bias on stock market is
up 85% of time from nov 7 to jan 16th .
there is also a bear cycle that begins oct 31 and runs into jan 6th . market not stretched yet is getting a bit overbought .
major swing period runs from oct 3jan 6th . unless dow going above this years highs i would expect next week to be about it for a reaction high .
we will see soon enough .
11983-12028 should be stiff resistance on the dow if this will be a swing high .

BTW, I still think we're going to 1170-1175 ES, and am positioned accordingly. It's hard for me to trade against your views.

Carl, what are your thoughts for this coming week? How will you play it?

Thinking once it may go as high as 1254 before the major pullback (previous neckline of the head and shoulders).....would you agree? I think that is when I will buy the VIX (T.HNU on the TSX)..

What do you think?
