Posted 12/21/2010 after market close. SPY close: 125.39. Click here for a screenshot of p-Indicator results

Comments: The market has been going up on declining volume for the last three sessions. This is normal because traders are preparing for the holidays. As of this close the results indicate that this upward move will continue. In the short-term, the P-delta values are low meaning that the upward bias is not too strong or that there may be volatility and price swings.

The results of 12/06/2010 indicated the market reversal by the close of 12/07/2010. SPY closed at 122.83 after opening at 123.93. Read below for details:

Comments: The results as of this close show a small probability for a correction to the downside with very high significance. Longer-term bias is positive. Thus we may see some volatility in the next few days with prices falling overall but then, maybe by the the end of this week, another rally. Of course, all these can change by tomorrow. This is the nature of the markets, i.e. constantly changing.

Another huge success of the p-Indicator. It indicated the market reversal to the upside after the close of the third consecutive down day on 11/30/2010. Read below for details:

Posted 11/30/2010 after market close. SPY close: 118.49 (Open: 117.98). Click here for a screenshot of p-Indicator results

Comments: The market tried several times to move into positive territory and stay there with no success and it closed lower. It closed higher than the open by half a point though in line with what the p-indicator showed yesterday. As of this close, all P-delta values have turned positive indicating a reversal to the upside. The significance is low and that may mean that the reversal will not be very strong or that there will be volatility and sign changes.

Another success of the p-Indicator. It indicated the market reversal to the upside after the close of the third consecutive down day on 11/16/2010 and when many were talking about a pending collapse. Read below for details:

Posted 11/16/2010 after market close. SPY close: 118.16. Click here for a screenshot of p-Indicator results

Comments: The p-Indicator results point to an upside reversal. All P-delta values are positive with high significance. This means that historically the market went up about 60% to 70% of the time when similar price action conditions were present. This is of course related to probability. The probability of an event has no relation to the event itself. It is only a measure having to do with its occurrence and its interpretation relies on different notions. When the probability of win is 70% there is still a high chance of loss equal to 30%. It is like tossing a biased coin, for which the probability of heads showing up is 70%. There is always a finite probability of a streak of tails. Thus, one may look at the p-Indicator results on a daily basis but a better and more appropriate approach is based on considering the results over a period of time.
