Midday Market Commentary For 04-11-2013
By noon time the markets had peaked and were slowly drifting down, maybe it is just a breather. The volume levels remained in the moderate zone for most of the morning but have fallen to the sessions lowest levels meaning the HFT computers will will melt it up again.
My proprietary indicators have turned solid bear (red) by 3 digits and unusual in that it is very much opposite the market euphoria going on right now. Consider sitting this one out and selling some of your dogs.
