Was That The Bottom… Or Just The Beginning Of The Abyss?

The market action lately has been wild enough to make your head spin. 

While some are calling a bottom, my analysis of the monthly charts tells a different story – one that suggests this selloff could just be getting started.

Here’s what’s keeping me up at night:

  • How the “selective selling” we’re seeing now could actually signal DEEPER drops ahead (this pattern is eerily familiar…)
  • The critical sector signals I’m watching in XLF, XLY, XLB, SMH, and XLU that will tell us if this is just rotation or something more sinister
  • Why we haven’t seen true capitulation yet – and the specific correlation patterns that need to show up before we can call a bottom
  • The “Big Boy Vol Backwardation” happening now and what it means for your trading
  • Why those trusty moving averages you’ve been using? They could lead you astray in this environment
  • The fascinating reason why expanding your chart timeframe beyond 9 months reveals a completely different picture
  • A potential downside target in the ES futures that has the August lows in its crosshairs

But here’s the good news – I’ve identified a strategy specifically designed for navigating these choppy waters. 

One that could help you not just survive, but potentially thrive in this environment.

I broke it all down in tonight’s video…

Remember – understanding what’s really happening under the market’s hood is your best defense against getting blindsided.
