STOCK MARKET BULLISH -- LONG -- CAUTION -- TURN MAY BE IMMINENT

Keybot the Quant remains long. It looked like copper would fail and help flip the model short but it took all morning for the red metal to crawl into the bear camp and then that was only for a short while. Then, during the final hour of trading, copper fails again, and the quant wants to flip  short, but the internal parameters will not permit the move yet.

The bears need a steady move lower in stocks and for the SPX to fall through 3956 trending lower and that should be enough to flip Keybot the Quant to the short side but time will tell. S&P futures are up +4 an hour before the regular US trading session begins. Copper futures are up nearly +1% so the bulls want to maintain control of the stock market.

Bears need SPX below 3956 for victory and to flip Keybot short and the NYA dropping below 15217 would flush the stock market even lower.

Bulls need CPER above 21.73 and/or UTIL above 974.29 to maintain the upside in stocks and CPER will likely turn bullish after the opening bell. UTIL 974 would kick in a stronger upside rally in stocks.

Keybot prints a pre-scheduled number this morning.

STOCK MARKET BULLISH -- LONG -- CAUTION -- TURN MAY BE IMMINENT

Keybot the Quant remains long by a whisker with the algo number only 1 measly point above the signal line. All that matters is utes and copper. Bulls must push UTIL above 974.35 (now at 972.06), otherwise, they are going to get into trouble.

Bears need CPER below 21.72 (now at 21.81) to create stock market negativity. If copper turns bearish, and the SPX drops below 4021 trending lower, Keybot the Quant will likely flip short, hence the imminent turn notation in the title line.

On Sunday evening on the US East Coast, S&P futures are down -16 and copper futures are dropping faster than a prom dress so the bears are broadcasting that they want to take control of the stock market. The bulls must push utilities higher to stop the negativity.

Keybot prints 3 pre-scheduled numbers this week one on Tuesday morning, another on Wednesday evening for the EOM (end-of-month), and the third on Friday morning. It is a battle royale between utilities and copper  on Monday. Who will win?

STOCK MARKET BULLISH -- LONG -- CAUTION -- TURN MAY BE IMMINENT

Keybot the Quant remains long by a single hair. Here it is. Time to separate the men from the boys. The UTIL bull/bear line in the sand, as previously mentioned, is 974 and an hour ago price prints......... wait for it ......... wait for it ........ wait a bit longer for it....... 974. It is a battle royale with the stock market on the line.

Keybot has not printed any numbers as yet today but UTIL is knocking on the bull's door. The bulls need the stronger utes because the algo number is only above the signal line by 1 measly point. Bulls need stronger utilities to drive the US stock market another leg higher.

If UTIL closes above 974 that is a bigtime bull signal. It will have to keep following through next week but it tells you the bulls are going to run higher.

UTIL tagged 974 and is at 971 now so a close below 974 extends the game until Monday giving the market bears something to smile about because utes came all the way up over the last few weeks and right when it counted, were unable to hold 974. So watch it to see what happens.

If utes head lower from here in a big way clearly rejected by 974, then Katy bar the door. As the previous post said, the US stock market will be in a crash profile for a significant collapse to begin at anytime.

If bullish on stocks you need UTIL above 974. If bearish, you are hoping that utes collapse. Bears need weaker copper and must push CPER below 21.73 but it is drifting higher.

The US market closes at 1:00 PM EST today only 90 minutes away.

If CPER loses 21.73, consider the imminent turn to the downside to be in play, and if the SPX then loses the 4K level, Keybot will likely flip short. It's a coin-flip but UTIL 974 and CPER 21.73 tell you the answer and the direction forward for stocks.

STOCK MARKET BULLISH -- LONG -- CAUTION

Keybot the Quant remains on the long side with the robot teasing to go short but content to stay long into the holiday-shortened trading week ahead. The bulls are in control with the algo number 8 points above the signal line but that is nothing to brag about.

The battle next week is between copper, volatility and NYA in the bull camp versus utes and commodes in the bear camp.

To continue the rally, bulls need UTIL above 974 and/or GTX above 3630 although both will take some effort. If the bulls push stocks higher in front of the joyous Turkey Day, watch SPX 4145-4150 since that would unleash big upside.

If UTIL does not get back above 974, prepare your portfolio for a major crash event that can begin at anytime and will likely be written into the record books. UTIL above 974 would keep the wolf at bay.

Bears need to pull CPER below 21.69, NYA below 15263 and/or push VIX above 25.30. Any 1 of the 3 will signal an end to the bull rally. If 2 or all 3 turn bearish, Katy bar the door, since stocks will be collapsing lower. The copper target corresponds to a -1.2% loss in copper futures so watch this closely overnight Sunday into Monday.

If any 1 of the 3 parameters turn bearish, consider the imminent turn to the short side to be back on the table and if the SPX loses 3936 trending lower, Keybot the Quant will likely flip short.

The NYA below 15263 is a big deal which will lead to significant further stock market weakness. Conversely, if NYA remains above 15263, the bulls are on easy street with stocks floating higher until the NYA changes its mind again.

Keybot the Quant prints one prescheduled number next week on Wednesday morning. The US stock market is closed on Thursday for Thanksgiving Day. Friday is a shortened session.

STOCK MARKET BULLISH -- LONG -- CAUTION -- TURN MAY BE IMMINENT

Keybot the Quant remains long but is champing at the bit to go short with the algo number 4 points below the signal line. The internals will not yet fully latch to permit the move so the quant remains long.

The fight for stock market direction is currently rooted in the NYA index at the 15260 bull/bear line in the sand. NYA is at 15150 creating sogginess in stocks. Commodities also remain in play with GTX 3631. Price is at 3552 creating stock market selling pressure.

VIX is at 24.13 with the bull/bear line in the sand at 25.33 so the bears must move VIX up a full stick if they want to prove that down is the direction forward (volatility moves inversely to stocks).

Bulls need NYA 15260 to prove that they can flex their muscles higher while bears want VIX above 25.33 which will usher in stock market pain. Choose your poison.

If the SPX drops below 3906, now at 3936, and trends lower from there, Keybot the Quant will likely flip short. If this is not in the cards today, NYA 15260 and VIX 25.33 will tell you the path forward.

STOCK MARKET BULLISH -- LONG

Keybot the Quant remains long with the algo number 42 points above the signal line. The bulls are cruising and a new development occurs that is a bigtime bull win.

The NYA crosses above 15297 shaking off the bear market and trying to enter a bull market. Watch the bull/bear line in the sand at 15297 like a hawk; it will tell you stock market direction. Above means an extended bull market and several weeks of upside joy. If NYA drops below 15297, there will be Hell to pay going forward.

Same dealio with GTX 3638 with price at 3683 creating bullish joy. Negativity will occur in the stock market when GTX loses 3638. Bulls rule above GTX 3638.

UTIL needs to move above 973 to create bullishness in stocks. This may be a tall order but it requires a hairy eyeball. Overall, the utilities are a terrible omen suggesting a big crash is on tap any week forward directly conflicting with the NYA joy.

SPX needs to move above 4150 which is 157 points away to help the bulls. If this occurs, trumpets would sound the arrival of a strong bull market.

STOCK MARKET BULLISH -- LONG

Keybot the Quant remains on the long side with more juice added to the bull tank today. The algo number is 48 points above the signal line so the bulls are cruising. Commodities turn bullish adding upside to the stock market. GTX 3633 is the bull/bear line in the sand with price trading at 3704 right now so watch it closely.

Most importantly, the NYA crosses above the critical bull/bear line in the sand at 15297 now trading at 15340. This is a big deal. Watch NYA 15297 like a hawk because if price remains above, stocks will remain in rally mode. If NYA loses 15297 today or any day forward, that is a sign that the rally is not strong and will likely roll over.

STOCK MARKET BULLISH -- LONG

Keybot the Quant flips back to the long side at SPX 3876. The US stock market is in frenzy after the inflation number comes in soft this morning. It is a bull orgy with the major indexes up from +2% to +5% or more. Shorts are running for their lives, covering, adding more bull fuel.

Volatility, retail stocks and chips all euphorically jump into the bull camp cheering the orgy. The S&P futures popped over 100 handles instantaneously on the release of the inflation data; that has never happened before. Strange Days, as Jim would sing.

The bulls are running the show with the algo 27 points above the signal line. Watch commodities. Bulls need GTX above 3633 now at 3631 to create more upside in stocks. Bears must stop GTX at 3633 and spank it back down.

On the last trade, another whipsaw that only lasted 5-1/2 hours, the algo program and actual trading each lose about -2%. On the year, the SPX benchmark is down -19%. The Keybot the Quant program is up +28%  and the actual trading generated by the quant is up +40%. Keybot exits SH and enters QQQ.

STOCK MARKET BEARISH -- SHORT -- CAUTION

Keybot the Quant flips to the short side this morning at SPX 3794. The bulls were looking good until the wheels fell off this morning. The bears are in control with the algo number 18 points below the signal line.

Volatility, chips and commodities are running the show right now. Banks and copper are supporting the bulls. The bulls need VIX below 25.60, SOX above 2455 and/or GTX above 3633. If the 3 remain in the bear camp, stocks will continue sinking lower. Any 1 of the 3 turning bullish will immediately stop the selling.

On the last trade that only ran for about 8-1/2 hours, a whipsaw, the algo program and actual trading have marginal losses. On the year, the SPX benchmark is down over -20%. The Keybot the Quant program is up +30% and the actual trading generated by the quant is up +42%. Keybot exits SPY and enters SH remaining in the 1x ETF's. The choppy slop continues and the quant will remain in 1x ETF's into the first week of December. The stock market is chop suey chopping up bulls and bears.

Watch VIX 25.60 for stock market direction.

STOCK MARKET BULLISH -- LONG -- CAUTION

Keybot the Quant flips to the bull side yesterday afternoon at SPX 3809. The quant spent more time wanting to go long during the last trade than remaining short. It is testimony to the sideways chop. Chop suey. The algo number is 15 points above the signal line.

The bulls create the upside joy in stocks with banks, volatility, copper and commodities. Bulls need the chips and retail stocks to join the rally if it is to have legs higher.

Bulls need to push SOX above 2454.25 to unleash another leg higher for equities. Bulls need to push RTH above 160.67 to create another leg higher for stocks. Both parameters are knocking at the bulls door so pay attention to see if either turn bullish, or, if they remain bearish. If SOX and RTH fail to turn bullish, the stock market will likely be out of gas and become soggy again.

Bears need to keep chips and retail stocks gloomy and at the same time push volatility higher and copper and commodities lower. You will know that the bears are starting to damage the stock market again if VIX pops above 25.57 and begins trending higher. VIX is at 24.65 in real-time in the bull camp.

On the last trade that ran for a week, the quant program and actual trading each gain about a percent. For the year thus far, the S&P 500 benchmark is down -20%. The Keybot the Quant program is up +30% and the actual trading generated by the quant is up +43% outperforming the benchmark US stock market by 73 percentage points. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. Keybot exits SH and enters SPY remaining in the 1x ETF's. The robot is smart and saw the choppy slop coming ahead of time.

Watch volatility, copper, chips and retail stocks.

STOCK MARKET BEARISH -- SHORT -- CAUTION -- TURN MAY BE IMMINENT

Keybot the Quant remains on the short side despite the big rally on Friday. The algo number is 17 points above the signal line so Keybot is champing at the bit to go long. The quant has wanted to go long since Thursday but the internal parameters will not latch completely to permit the move.

On Friday morning, all the bulls had to do was send markets slowly higher but instead it was a gap-up euphoric open triggering the gap-up timer so the flip long is delayed by approximately 90 minutes. Once the gap-up timer expired, the SPX could not regain the day's high.

So short remains the direction and S&P futures are down 25 points on Sunday evening in the States. Traders were joyous last week expecting China to roll back the failed zero-covid strategy but instead, as any dictator would do, dirtbag Xi says no change creating sogginess in stocks to begin the new week.

If the SPX moves above 3796 trending higher, Keybot the Quant will likely flip long. The bulls do not want another gap-up open because that may delay the flip long. Thus, the SPX will need about 25 points of upside to flip long but futures are down 25 points right now in real-time.

There are a bunch of moving parts but let's find something simple that all of you can follow. Copper and commodities exploded higher last week expecting a China reopening so they should retrace. Banks have outperformed and remain bullish. Volatility dropped on Friday sending stocks higher. These are the four key parameters that created the bull rally.

Banks are elevated and even with a pullback they may want to remain in the bull camp. The VIX bull/bear line in the sand is 25.71 and the week ended at 24.55 in the bull camp (the VIX and SPX  move inverse to each other well over 90% of the time). Volatility is a prime candidate to turn bearish that will create negativity in stocks (VIX will pop above 25.71).

If the VIX pops above 25.71, which it should overnight, watch to see if copper and/or commodities turn bearish. If so, short is the correct path forward. The bears need CPER to drop below 21.18 and/or GTX below 3633 to prove that down for stocks is correct. If the VIX pops higher but copper and commodities are not falling that much, this will hint that the bulls are setting things up for a rally (and the VIX will likely drop; stocks will rally if VIX remains below 25.71).

Copper futures need to drop -5.4% to help the bears and they are down -2.1% now so the bears have some work to do. Commodities need to drop -3.7% to help the bears maintain the downward path.

Humorously, the SPX is where it was at 6 weeks ago. It is chop suey chewing up bulls and bears alike. Is the pressure gonna drop on you? as Toots and the Maytals would sing.

STOCK MARKET BEARISH -- SHORT -- CAUTION

Keybot the Quant flips to the short side at SPX 3854 yesterday before munch time. The banks and commodities are supporting the bulls while copper and volatility support the bears.

The quant goes psycho over the last day printing a wild barrage of 19 numbers including the flip to the bear camp. It represents lots of chop and indecision going into the Fed rate decision and Chairman Powell's press conference today.

Bears need weaker banks and commodities to send stocks lower. Bears need GTX below 3616.50 and XLF below 32.70.

Bulls need stronger copper and lower volatility. Bulls need CPER above 20.95 and VIX below 25.73. Simply watch these three parameters (GTX, CPER, VIX) and they will tell you the direction of the stock market. As always a wild whipsaw may occur in these crazy markets when Powell begins to speak.

On the last trade that ran for 11 days, the quant program and actual trading both gain about +3%. For the year thus far, into its 11th month, the benchmark S&P 500 is down -19.1% no longer in that sub -20% silly bear market region (we remain in a cyclical bear market). The Keybot the Quant computer program is up +29% on the year and the actual trading generated by the quant is up +42% this year outperforming the benchmark by a huge 61 percentage points. That's a lot. Keybot exits SPY and enters SH remaining in the 1x ETF's since the whipsaw timer remains in effect.

The bears are in control with the algo number 11 points below the signal line. GTX 3616.50,  CPER 20.95 and VIX 25.73 tell the story going forward. As copper goes, so goes the market.
