Summary

  • Bitcoin has continued its slide toward the 38k- to 40k- area, from which a bounce is likely (see last week’s posts);

  • As of 11:15 am EST, we are getting the micro pullback I called for, but at a nano/micro level SPX and NDX could still push a bit higher, ideally with an additional up-down-up sequence;

  • The game this week should be “Raise CASH,” “CASH is King,” in my opinion;

  • Repost from Sunday:

    • Cycles suggest potential top and reversal this week – of course, always need to provide some tolerance to cycle predictions – also need to keep in mind the beginning of February positive seasonality;

    • The wave patterns of main indexes do not look complete, and still slightly higher is possible and to be expected, but caution is required as this week a top is expected;

    • Also, cycle price projection targets still could accommodate somewhat higher in major indexes.

NDX Technical Analysis

  • NDX/INDU(DJI) ratio is at a historical extreme, just like in 2000 and Nov’21;

  • It will revert to the mean, i.e., correct significantly over time;

    • Will it be like in 2000-2002, or stretched over a longer period?

  • RSI exhibits a double negative divergence with price;

  • Stochastic turning down from overbought;

  • Not favorable for NDX in the medium- and long-term.

AAPL Technical Analysis

  • AAPL, one of the market leaders and Magnificent 7, also exhibits technical weaknesses; see RSI negative divergence;

  • It closed the downgrade gap and could still push higher, perhaps even to the upper Keltner channel boundary, but the negative divergences will get even more pronounced.
