XIV - Short Term Outlook

XIV cooled off from the double orange and blue resistance, and currently is building support.  XIV is likely to rise into month-end.

Notice the cluster of lines up above at the month-end green target area.

  2. SC, do you have a bearish bias for January? If yes, where do you see S&P and XIV in Jan? Thanks.

    2. Yes, a low is due early January, and then a powerful 6-month rally begins.

  5. I do not like the action of XIV.Sold out at 27.07 Bought back UVXY 26.28 for a day or two. Market Makers are playing with this market. Easy to do in a thin trading market

  7. XIV could cool off to test the pink support in the $25's, but I think higher at month end.

    1. SPX could dip to 2030, then rise to 2080 to close out the year.

  13. Noteworthy is the fact that the large cap index Standard & Poor’s 500 has never closed lower in a year ending with “5”, nor has it ever closed lower in the year preceding a U.S. Presidential election, and lastly, has not closed lower in the seventh year of a Presidency since 1939. If the S&P cannot hold this week the index is in danger of deviating some strong cyclical patterns that it has built and leaned on over the last several decades.

    1. Good call, Louis. I have been out all day. My I pad does not allow me to post on this web site for some reason. My half position in Uvxy was sold out this morning and went long UPRO instead of XIV. Bigger bang for my dollars. As of now XIV is up only 1.34% vs Upro at 3.26% Looking for 2003 min with a possibility going to 2124 sp by Thursday. I will be selling out my long core holdings by Thursday some time. My play account, Uvxy XIV, Upro is for fun.I am some what concerned with the over all markets going into Feb 25th time frame. We will finally see some exciting drops in the markets here shortly. Good luck every one.

  23. SC, what's the entry price you looking for UVXY and exit target?

    1. Tomorrow is the date for the Cycle high so UVXY starting to look interesting.

      Initial target first week of January around $30, then January 13th higher target around $36.

  24. I imagine you can't just take 2014 Dec-January fractal and paste it into this year. It appears you are doing just that. Low Jan 6 and 14. That is too...easy.
