Stock Market Today: December 17th - 21st, 2018

Uh oh. Might soon be time to dust off those "Average breadth & depth & length of Bear Market" charts and tables...

 

Yes! This is steady-as-she-goes selling. Maybe positions being unwound to salvage year-end performance numbers? We need that VIX blowout to signal some sort of exhaustion and reversal!

 

I just had a vertigo attack so won’t be watching the market rest of the day. Just resting on the bed now. Happy trading to all of you though

 

Look much better when you’re not watching @stock1234

 

What @bigbear0083 said. Hope you're back to 100% quick!

 

Vix up, but not quite there, RSI down but not quite there, still too orderly imo. I think we see 2425 tomorrow.

 

Yeah, really was hoping we'd get a nice long wick on the VIX today. Maybe it was enough? I'm leaning down again tomorrow, too. At least early on in the day.

 

i think the fact that its been orderly is the scary part, like it feels like it can just keep going lower and lower forever just like a true bear market.

 

I think the close below 2488 was a blow to the bulls. Unless we get some news to gap the markets in the pre market we close lower tomorrow imo. Best case scenario, we open flat and drift down again, break 2425 and flush hard. - then we can get long.

 

I averaged in at around 2465 today. I couldn't enter at the 2441 level because of a dentist appointment. It's interesting how these appointments can throw a person off. At any rate, I'm set for Santa, if Santa shows up this year. This collapse to the 2441 level is, simply, insane. From the 2940 level.

 

Bio's and RUT are red today - strange

 

Thanks guys I am better today. Unfortunately the vertigo attacks me once in awhile, but I am fine today

 

NASDAQ now deep in the bear market territory

 

Watch out Bios

 

SPX below 2450, looking at MSFT's triple bottom.

 

Utilities up over 1% today. Defensive sectors like staples and real estates are up today. Tech stocks are getting hammered though
