SPY at Year End Crossroad Dec 15, 2015
2015 Dec 15 Tue 20:07:51 | by
End-of-day update: SPY bounced quickly off the 200 round number level, back up to where the sudden decline started. Now facing FOMC decision tomorrow, it has to choose between a drop to 196 open gap below off the steep down channel, or, given enough firepower by the Fed, back up to 210 where the top of the daily bull flag is.

Bearish expectation worked out. The expansion to 2.5% or more downside also worked out. The breadth analog model did an excellent job for the week.
Forecast Starting Dec 14, 2015
Summary of the S&P500 short-term forecast based on my proprietary market breadth analog model as of the close of Dec 11, 2015:
- Bottoming process potential
- Once 1.5% rally is in place continuation up to 2.5% is likely
Report Snapshot
Short Explanation About The Model
My market breadth based analog model takes into account the short term volatility, daily market breadth readings and a few other intraday breadth data to identify the current market conditions. Using the information, the model then went through the historical data over the past 20 years to generate its statistical analysis. The model has been pretty good at identifying important swing tops and bottoms over the past few years by providing early warnings about potential volatility upticks.
