A Bit Early On USEC Corp - Opportunity Continues to Knock

Correction Continues

The last leg down seems to be upon us as the characteristics of the decline today is indicative of such an event.

I don't see this being a straight shot down to our final bottom, but you have to be prepared for anything.

The hedge remains in place and targets for the final low are as follows:
1428-1423
1388-1380
1348

All targets are basis the S&P 500 and the highlighted target holds the most weight.

With much of the talk of a panic today, it could very possible be a set up for a rally tomorrow or Monday. This rally should be sold if it presents itself.

Short S&P 500 - Aggressive

After some stabilization in here at 10:07, the S&P 500
looks like it wants to make another large move down.

A short trade in here should carry a very tight stop of no more
than 1480.22.

Equities Weakness

This entire rally continues to exhibit signs of weakness.

There simply is no participation on the upside and this tells us that there should be one more push lower.

Talk About Quick - Re-Enter Short

Seems like I just got out : )

Short the market again in here with the S&P at 1493.

Keep a tight buy stop at 1496.

Cover Short/Sell Puts - Stand Aside

Looks like the market is trying to find some stabilization in here, so lets cover the shorts from 1503 and sell the puts and wait to re-enter on some type of retracement rally.

20 + S&P points is not bad for an hours work!!

Establish A Short Position

Currently the S&P 500 is trading at 1503 and it looks like a good area to put on

1/3 of my short position.

Remember, the characteristics of the first decline tells us that it WAS NOT the final low for the move.

This is an aggressive trade and is in addition to the hedge we already had in place.

USEC Corp

While I had expected USU to decline all the way back to 14 1/4, there currently are some very strong indications that the entire corrective decline is over.

With this information in mind, take 1/2 of your position at current levels and should the stock ultimately fulfill its 14 1/4 target then the other half of the position can be put in place.

The upside potential of this stock is huge and I do not mean a double or a triple, but more!

Take a look at a 2 year chart of TNH (which is also nearing our buy range) and you will get an idea of exactly how powerful an advance is possible with USU. Now everything is never etched in stone and we must always buy and sell stocks according to what the market dictates, but the risk to reward on USU is great! Not bad Long Term Fundamental prospects either.

Three White Soldiers Pattern Update

WAL - Move stop up to Breakeven
Long From 24 1/8
13.1% Gain

ROCM Currently has a 4.7% gain.

The Sell Stop Is at Breakeven.

Equity Update

We continue to wait for the last leg down or a turn up in the Three Line Break Sentiment chart
before I take the hedge off and begin a stage of buying.

Be prepared for some real volatility over the next couple of weeks and don't expect everything
to happen quickly.

August 24th remains the target day for the low.

Lumber Update

While lumber seems to be quite sleepy in here, it has yet to violate any price level that I would be concerned about.

I remain fully committed on the long side with a very close stop to protect from any breakdown.

If I am correct on my analysis then lumber should have quite a sharp move to the upside and as long as there is not hard breakdown from these levels then all systems remain on go.

Copper

Copper has resumed its bull market and is now at a point where one more decline to the 309 area would be very bullish.

The next intermediate term move up has the potential to be a huge move.

Keep this one on your radar.

There are quite a few commodities that are starting to line up nicely for moves one way or the other, so I am going to be very busy.

The German Value Play

While the German Stock market offers the best value worldwide, it is still in need of further
decline to stay healthy. The DAX needs to correct more than our domestic U.S. markets, but after that is complete then watch out.

You can participate in the German Market by finding a mutual fund or the easy approach is simply to trade the ETF, the symbol being EWG.

Simple is Always Nice

So let me make it very simple here.

When this Three Line Break Sentiment Chart turns up, it is time to buy buy buy!

If there is one thing and only one thing to watch, this is it.... Period!

Just More Evidence

No Momentum, which translates into a counter trend move.

Equity Market Comment

The Math Model is saying a pullback from here, followed by another huge leap up to 1504.

This will be a counter trend move and from there the final decline on this intermediate term correction should be over.

Please have in mind that the Math Model is very specific and although at times it will get the numbers wrong, it is very accurate on direction and structure.

I will be posting my buy list in anticipation of the final low that I see for August 24.

What can the 200 Day Moving Average Do for your Technical Toolbox

There is so much talk about the 200 day moving average that I thought it only fitting to post this chart.

The level we need to look at is a close below 1387 on the S&P 500 and not the actual 200 day moving average.
