We have been watching a bearish rising wedge on the weekly chart. The rising wedge pattern implies that you will get a breakdown from the rising bottoms trendline. That is exactly what happened this week.<\/p>\n<p>The one problem with these patterns is that they don\u2019t give us a minimum downside target as most chart patterns provide. For me, my back of the napkin calculation is to look at the beginning of the pattern and determine the height. That is at around 60 points (500 + 60 = height of the back of the pattern). That would imply a drop of the same amount from the breakdown point. It happened just under 600 so I would say the downside target of the pattern would be to 540 which is a strong area of support.<\/p>\n<p>The weekly PMO has topped and given us a new Crossover SELL Signal as of last Friday. We will say that the weekly PMO is flat above the zero line and that typically implies pure strength in a move, however this Crossover SELL Signal is an attention flag. We can also see that the PMO carries a negative divergence with price tops.<\/p>\n<p>One thing that could save the SPY from a deep decline to 540 is the rising trend channel. Price may only need to test the bottom of the channel and not necessarily see a breakdown from there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:<\/strong> The market is long overdue for a correction if not a bear market. The breakdown on the weekly chart and the new weekly PMO Crossover SELL Signal are attention flags that the correction may be upon us. It\u2019s probably a good idea to make sure your positions have listed stops as even a drop to the rising bottoms trendline would be problematic.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>The DP Alert: Your First Stop to a Great Trade!<\/h2>\n<p>Before you trade any stock or ETF, you need to know the trend and condition of the market.
