It is one of the best participation indicators out there! Here\u2019s how it works:<\/p>\n<p>We consider a positive 20\/50-day EMA crossover a \u201cSilver Cross\u201d. If a stock has a Silver Cross it has a bullish bias. The opposite of a Silver Cross is a Dark Cross. Stocks with a Dark Cross have a bearish bias.<\/p>\n<p>The Silver Cross Index measures the percentage of stocks holding Silver Crosses. The current percentage on the Silver Cross Index is just 37% so this tells us that 63% have bearish biases. This condition suggests to us that the market has more downside to absorb.<\/p>\n<p>The Silver Cross Index was nearing a Bullish Shift across its signal line, but instead has topped. It is likely to continue declining given less stocks are above their 20\/50-day EMAs versus the Silver Cross Index percentage.<\/p>\n<p>Participation measured by the percent of stocks above their key moving averages are all below our bullish 50% threshold. Stochastics have topped and the PMO topped Friday. The short-term rising trend has been broken. This looks like a textbook reverse flag formation that was confirmed with Friday\u2019s decline. The minimum downside target of the pattern would put price near 480. This sure has the earmarks of a failed bear market rally.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:<\/strong> The Silver Cross Index is at a very low 37% and has now topped beneath its signal line. Participation, as measured by the <em>%Stocks &gt; 20\/50EMAs,<\/em> is mediocre at best and reading below the Silver Cross Index. This looks like the end of a bear market rally based on the bear flag that was confirmed on Friday.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Note: This chart is from our \u201cUnder the Hood\u201d ChartList on DecisionPoint.com.
