Market Update Email 3-6-09

To: Friends and Family
Subject: Current Chart

All, it's been awhile since I sent out an updated chart, so here it is. As I mentioned I took some profits today and am frankly unsure of whats going to happen next. I still am waiting for that bounce and we have a possible wave count completion (see chart), but my indicators say we could have a lot more downside before that bounce.

Im just not sure. I will do some more research this weekend. For some reason I am not trusting my indicators. What I am sure of is we will get a multiday bounce when this down leg is over followed by another big selloff which should complete our market bottom at new lows.

The 2nd chart is one of the VIX (the implied volatility on options contracts). This is one of my indicators and it should be peaking as the market falls. The chart I built has the VIX inverted so that it tracks the market (which means it should be spiking down as the market falls). As you can see there is some crazy divergence going on now that hasn't happened this entire bear market. Why is the VIX not tanking? That is what I need to study more.

Good luck. Nothing wrong with staying out of the market when you are unsure of things.
