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

Keybot the Quant remains short as the ongoing drama and fight for stock market control continues. The robot wants to flip long with the algo number 6 points above the signal line but the internal parameters will not latch to permit the move. If the SPX moves above 7511 trending higher, Keybot the Quant will likely flip long. You want to see a slow steady move higher not a gap-up open. Watch the S&P futures to see if +11 points are showing.

There are several parameters at play. Retail stocks, banks and copper are key and helping maintain stock market buoyancy. A drop of -2% to -3% for each is needed to create substantive negativity in stocks. Volatility dropped helping the bulls. The VIX needs to climb 4 handles above 20.62 to lock-in serious downside negativity.

Utilities are the key. The market makers know this that is why they stick-saved the utes at the end of the Thursday session. Utilities are important in the very near term and then also for the coming weeks if stocks begin selling off.

UTIL 1180.42 and 1116.40 are the two bull/bear lines in the sand for the week ahead. Price begins at 1120 creating bearishness in stocks since it is below 1180 but also creating stock market lift since it is above the critical 1116. Bears need UTIL, or DJU, below 1116.40 immediately since it will snuff out the bulls hopes for going long.

If UTIL then remains below 1116 trending lower, losing 11 hundo, and the broad stock market is selling off, it tells you that there is a high likelihood that stocks are headed for a major crash. Bulls simply need to keep sending UTIL higher and they will be headed for more new record highs with stocks.

It is a cage match on the Whitehouse lawn with the bulls winning with SPX 7511 and higher versus the bears winning with UTIL 1116 and lower. When you look up rock 'n roll in the dictionary, you see The Rolling Stones. Respectable. We're talking heroin with the president. You're the easiest lay on the Whitehouse lawn.
