Today's market rally came as expected. Although today's rally took many by surprise, others got even more bearish on stock market's future direction. This can be a good or bad assumption. There is no way to know for sure if the market is going to go up or down, ahead of time. However, one thing that we do know is that the market is setting up to follow scenario 2 (as defined in last nights update).
We will continue to monitor market's structural developments in conjunction with the IPM Turn Date and Market Matrix.
Tomorrow morning will bring non-farm payroll data. Although this report will give clarity on job creation activity in the U.S., structurally markets are getting ready for a rally tomorrow. Following chart shows scenario 2 in close-up.
Based on this structural interpretation, market (SP500) could rally up to mid-1780s. This rally will give way to a sharper decline.Although one can use alternative counts to talk about other possibilities like new lows into high 1600s, we will keep it simple and let the market show us its hand. This means that we will use IPM Trade Matrix to trade during the next IPM Turn Window.
As far as the IPM Trade Matrix is concerned, today's rally validated Trade Matrix's yesterday's exits based on statistical analysis and proprietary exit criteria. With yesterday's exits, we are now all cash and waiting for next IPM Trade Matrix signal.
