Crash Alert – UPDATED (PREMIUM-UNLOCKED)
This post was originally issued to TLS Members on October 30, 2018 (fyi, the S&P 500 would eventually top out at 2813.)
This is a follow up to last Friday’s Crash Alert (or, Crash Avert) post. Markets are off to a solid bounce off of the aforementioned levels. In the event that THE initial low is in, please refer to the following resistance, i.e., profit-taking, levels on these respective indices. We would not hesitate to take some profits at said levels as the bounce is likely to be merely a retracement bounce prior to an eventual re-test of the lows. Remember, these resistance levels are fluid during a decline, especially after new lows are recorded. Therefore, levels on many indices have changed since yesterday’s WMMR weekly report. Should this bounce continue without another new low, these levels should continue to be valid. However, be sure to follow the DSS videos each morning for new updates or developments.
