=======================
McClellan Oscillator
The McClellan Oscillator is the difference between the 19-EMA & 39-EMA of daily advances minus declines.
It reflects the short-term strength and direction of market liquidity.
A longer-term view is provided by the McClellan Summation Index, which is the cumulative total of the daily McClellan Oscillator values.
These indicators move within a trading range and often identify the overbought/oversold condition of the market
McClellan Summation Index
( McSum = McClellan Summation Index )
the dominant rule is: price will eventually follow the direction of the McSum, except for brief periods of price divergence
The McSum is neutral at the zero line,
bullish while above,
and confirmed bearish while below zero
* the distance down or up to the McSum zero line currently represents
one objective measure of the minimum movement that is possible
Confirmed sell signals are a lasting decline below the McSum zero line,
though price action has usually declined by a large amount by the time
zero is reached from the McSum peak above.
Large distances between the McSum daily chart values represent acceleration events in the A-D breadth decline or advance,
and the follow-on price impact has a high correlation with the McSum's direction, and usually has several days staying power

McClellan Oscillator
The McClellan Oscillator is the difference between the 19-EMA & 39-EMA of daily advances minus declines.
It reflects the short-term strength and direction of market liquidity.
A longer-term view is provided by the McClellan Summation Index, which is the cumulative total of the daily McClellan Oscillator values.
These indicators move within a trading range and often identify the overbought/oversold condition of the market
McClellan Summation Index
( McSum = McClellan Summation Index )
the dominant rule is: price will eventually follow the direction of the McSum, except for brief periods of price divergence
The McSum is neutral at the zero line,
bullish while above,
and confirmed bearish while below zero
* the distance down or up to the McSum zero line currently represents
one objective measure of the minimum movement that is possible
Confirmed sell signals are a lasting decline below the McSum zero line,
though price action has usually declined by a large amount by the time
zero is reached from the McSum peak above.
Large distances between the McSum daily chart values represent acceleration events in the A-D breadth decline or advance,
and the follow-on price impact has a high correlation with the McSum's direction, and usually has several days staying power

Breakaway Momentum?
equals approx 1250 net NYSE advances per day for the next three days

excerpt -
BREAKAWAY MOMENTUM 101
Downside momentum usually peaks at the end of a decline, as prices cascade into a primary low. On the upside, though, momentum peaks at the beginning of an advance, then gradually dissipates as the advance goes on, and the more powerful the momentum at the move's beginning, the stronger the overall move; REALLY strong momentum is found only at the beginning of a REALLY strong move: a new bull market or a new intermediate upleg within a bull market. We coined the term "breakaway momentum" in the 1970's to describe this REALLY powerful upside momentum. The following is a review of what it is and how it is typically generated.
Breakaway momentum (some people call it a "breadth thrust") occurs when ten-day total advances on the NYSE are greater than 1.97 times ten-day total NYSE declines. It is a relatively uncommon phenomenon; the table at the end of this report shows the 23 times it has occurred since World War II (an average of once every 3 1/2 years). Cyclical bull markets, though, are traditionally heralded by breakaway momentum, so we are hopeful that it will be generated this time around, too.
How is breakaway momentum typically achieved? It's not easy. Usually, we need three things to happen. First, we need a VERY strong advance at the outset of the ten-day period. Typically, this requires an advance-decline ratio in the area of 2800-500 on the first day, 2500-700 on Day Two, and 2050-1050 on Days Three and Four. This creates a cumulative ratio of 2.69-1, which is well above the 1.97 threshold.
The very strong advances on the first two days followed by still-positive breadth on the next two are a formidable achievement, but the next one is even tougher. Markets never go straight up, and the real trick in achieving breakaway momentum is to keep declines limited during the inevitable corrections that occur in any ten-day period (it takes two advances to offset every decline, which is why "good" breadth days of 2-1, or even 3-1, won't cut it as far as achieving breakaway momentum is concerned).
In order to keep declines limited during corrections, the corrections must be minimal; often, this occurs when intraday declines abort before the close, and a big breadth deficit turns into just a narrow one by day's end. Breadth during the "correction days" (Days 5-6), then, should be no worse than 1400-1700; although this pushes the cumulative ratio down to 1.84, this is a far from insurmountable deficit. The final element needed to get breakaway momentum is a second strong advance during Days Seven through Ten; not quite as strong as the initial advance, but not too far behind it, either.
If, for example, the market generates breadth during Days Seven through Ten of 2500-700, 2300-800, 2100-1000 and 1900-1200, the ten-day breadth totals are 21000 and 10400. This generates a ten-day breadth ratio of 2.02 - breakaway momentum!
The real trick in generating breakaway momentum? It's not a lot of advances; it's a lack of declines. If the market stages a strong two-day advance, for example, it MUST maintain very positive breadth days for a couple of days afterwards (Days Three-Four and Nine-Ten) to keep the ten-day declines to a minimum. Also, declines MUST be kept to a minimum during the "normal" correction in the middle of the ten-day period; declines can exceed advances during those two days, but not by much or it will be impossible for the market to generate the two advances needed to offset every decline.

I have reviewed the adlinespx and adlinendxcharts and both indicate that they have bottomed and are still above 19 ema.
Watching the cross of 19/39 emas now.
Using NASI and NYSI indictaors as well to build conviction.
Again, I missed the bottom as confusion arose - after I got back from turkey and my long term fear factor,
That I missed the bottom again.
As I see now, the bottom was clear using adlinespx and adlinendx.
While I did trade a few shares, bulk of the move was in amzn and nflx which bottomed first. That was a clue.
I shoudl just sick to buying spy or tqqq that doubled.
Now I see run to 3030-3050 by next week.
As long as the adlinendx is above ema 19, we should be fine.
Keep in touch.

in the intermediate term
at Tuesday's close, the /ES futures:
2857.50 = 21,2 daily upper Bollinger Band value
2798.00 = 50-day EMA value
2635.75 = one /ES futures level which
bulls must defend during declines
and
bears must permanently violate to gain traction
for a lasting price decline
( 2635.75 = the March 31, 2020 session high achieved
in the Globex hours )

McClellan Oscillator
The McClellan Oscillator is the difference between the 19-EMA & 39-EMA of daily advances minus declines.
It reflects the short-term strength and direction of market liquidity.
A longer-term view is provided by the McClellan Summation Index, which is the cumulative total of the daily McClellan Oscillator values.
These indicators move within a trading range and often identify the overbought/oversold condition of the market
McClellan Summation Index
( McSum = McClellan Summation Index )
the dominant rule is: price will eventually follow the direction of the McSum, except for brief periods of price divergence
The McSum is neutral at the zero line,
bullish while above,
and confirmed bearish while below zero
* the distance down or up to the McSum zero line currently represents
one objective measure of the minimum movement that is possible
Confirmed sell signals are a lasting decline below the McSum zero line,
though price action has usually declined by a large amount by the time
zero is reached from the McSum peak above.
Large distances between the McSum daily chart values represent acceleration events in the A-D breadth decline or advance,
and the follow-on price impact has a high correlation with the McSum's direction, and usually has several days staying power
Ravi - I want to clearly state to you and others who read this
that you have acquired a skill set for trade timing
of exits and entries which few possess or even care to know
You have demonstrated to me via posts and the more numerous emails
which followed in 2018 that you are competent and proficient
in interpreting the trading actions called for by the data set when giving it your
focused attention ...
in my judgment you ought to consider yourself having an edge over
the masses who know not what they are missing ...
as a result your confidence in your accurate interpretation skills has a solid foundation
to serve as a reminder to you, here is a cut and paste of an email excerpt from you in August 2018 -
"watching 21,2 UBB going above the 50,2 UBB on NDX. Strong move.
- watching 19 ema and 39 ema slopes on ADLINENDX
- watching Cumulative NYAD and NYAD moving average charts
- watching SPXEW weekly and RSP monthly charts"

JWN new 52-week price high today,
August 17, 2018
we have had strange overall technicals in 2nd
half of August in some prior years ahead of the Jackson Wyoming economic conference
diverging internals with SPY price in hover mode
in the upper range
one recent year sticks in my memory that the
SPY
bounce to short was some days after the conference
good review Ravi
thanks for your diligence and study
RIM - Aug 16 closing update
1. PMOAZNDX critical juncture if 34 crosses below 63 - bad
2. ADLINENDX below 19 ema and slope negative
3. MCOSC NDX and NAS below 0
4. MCSUMNDX below 5 ema
5. MCSUMNDX below July 5 level - is concern today at 485.80 July 5 at 517.17
6. NDX NYSE MCSUM showing lower low
Takeaway
NDX and NAS are weak are down trending
SPX and DOW are showing some divergences as they are trending up
Good point on PMO for Spy holding green line as resistance for weeks not good
Bifurcated market but all indices will need to realign and start down? Based on MCSUM
RIM
Thought of trading this - but was not sure it would go up on earnings -
Thanks.
RIM
Very clearly - has consequences to the ability to move up.
Regards.
Upside retracement after a decline is now briefly in play
with an unusually large price gap up
today August 16, 2018 for
4 indices,
In the big view they all look tentative
at this point in the multiple day

price gap to the upside
time will tell

Macy's from below $25 area for a lengthy period in 2017
saw a good run... sentiment for Macy's bottomed in 2016/2017 and
that process took about 10 months below $42, if memory serves...from $70's then from $40's
to the low $20's decline took a while and then price based for months near the bottom, eventually briefly below $20 - see the monthly lower BB
