Tier 1
Thoughts from a private trader. Tier 1 is a reference to pre-flop strategies in Poker, "Tier 1" being the best starting hands. Through years of education, tape reading, market watching, and trading experience, I've created my own methodology for defining and trading "Tier 1" opportunities in the financial markets. I use a variety technical indicators to analyze the stock market, bonds, commodities, and currencies.

Stock Market Update for 04-17-2011
Price momentum is down, but traders should wait a day or two before building a short position as the market has some short term rally potential. Our stop is a daily close above 1327.

DeMark - Where to Set Your Stop
Per Jason Pearl's interpretation of DeMark's methodology, the Dow Industrial Index sell signal would get stopped out with bar 13's range added to the top tick of bar 13. So a close much over 12,097.90 would stop out the sell signal. 1.618 times the range is 12,168.95, a more lenient stop, but obviously adding to your risk level. That being said it's so rare to have a monthly, weekly, and daily sell signal line up almost perfectly in all the major indexes...

Breakdown
I've been detailing the bearish technical conditions in the market for the past few weeks now, and with Friday's strong close down, which qualified as a bearish price reversal (a close below .8 standard deviation from the 10 day moving average) in all the major indexes, I believe the correction I've been anticipating is now occurring. Judging by the extremes in sentiment and the long running divergences in breadth, the correction could be very significant.
In my last post I noted the Dow Non-Confirmation as well as the other riskier indexes breaking down ahead of the Dow Industrial average. Despite the strong move up Wednesday and Thursday, none of the secondary indexes managed confirm the Dow's high, in fact Friday the Transportation and the Nasdaq indexes managed to break the last swing low, with the Russell following close behind.
Chart 1: Dow Theory
So for now, with the sentiment extremes, the momentum extremes, the divergences in breath, and now mechanical signals telling us to sell the market, a very negative view is appropriate until at least some of these signals reverse.
