Nasdaq Percentage of Stocks Above their 200 day MA (Long Term) - 65.06. Bear Alert Status - a close below 64% will move it to Bear Confirmed Status for the first time since the March 2020 low

The Nasdaq 100, Nasdaq and S&P 500 are all currently forming Cup with Handle patterns on their daily charts, with lower volume on the down days in the handle area. So there is potential for a continuation attempt higher in the coming weeks. Although the US Election is a wild card and Earnings Season is upon us from this week. So remember to focus on the price action and volume of the individual stocks (especially leading stocks) and not on the news headlines or talking heads on the financial news channels.

Weekend update of the major US stock market indexes and indicators.

This week saw a huge shakeout in the leadership stocks with numerous tech and healthcare stocks dropping up to -20% in a just a few days from their highs. However, there is a chance that it was just a shakeout by the markets in order to let the larger players load up on the stronger stocks at a lower price. But this opinion now needs confirmation, as although some traders jumped back in immediately on the assumption of a shakeout. The price action of many stocks that got hit failed to recover with much strength, and still closed the week significantly lower than the previous week, even though they recovered half or more of the drop.

It's been a while since I've shown the effective volume charts from www.effectivevolume.com but thought it would be interesting to look at them again.

Stock Indexes continued higher for another week, with small caps showing the most strength, as a number of the previous leaders struggled. But some laggards got a boost, so are we seeing some rotation into the weaker areas of the market.
