SPX below the 50-day SMA, VIX volatility up to 3-month high.

VIX volatility rose to its highest level since 6/24/13.

The S&P 500 Composite Index (SPX: 1,676.12, down 0.85%) absolute price fell below Friday’s low in the first 3 minutes of trading on Monday. SPX then tried to bounce, but the recovery attempt fizzled after hitting an intraday high at 2:02 pm, then fell nearly to the early low in the final 40 minutes. By the close, SPX had surrendered more than Friday’s gain to its lowest closing level in 4 weeks. SPX closed below the open, below the midpoint of the day’s high-low range, and slightly below its widely-watched 50-day SMA.

SPX is now systematically neutral, strictly speaking, below the 50-day SMA but still above the 200-day SMA and with the 50 above the 200. Momentum divergences, lagging volume, excessive bullish sentiment, and politics remain major obstacles to a sustainable upside trend. Subjectively, the SPX trend still looks uncertain for the short-term, day-to-day trend. The SPX trend looks neutral for the medium term, since its May high.

NYSE total volume fell 8% to a level 27% below its 200-day SMA. Generally, rising volume confirms the direction (up or down) of a price move, but falling volume may indicate diminishing power behind a price trend, which can suggest a price reversal ahead.

The Cumulative Up-Down Volume Line on the NYSE and the Cumulative Daily Advance-Decline Line on the NYSE both turned downward on Monday. The Cumulative Up-Down Volume Line fell below its 50-day SMA on 9/23/13, thereby turning systematically neutral (from bullish), while the Advance-Decline Line has remained bullish above its 50-day SMA and above its 200-day SMA since 9/13/13.
