The Situation
This Indicator reached only 20.4% on August10 2011, the lowest spot level of the past
five years and far away from the last record level on July 16 2014 at 84.6% when
SP500 was at 1982.
The main technical indicators like the moving average of the Bullish Percentage Index
of the SP500 Index are showing some sign of weaknesses since April 28...
This ratio turned on a bearish trend since June 5 and now stand
at 58.6%
(61.4% for the 7 DMA - Day Moving Average).
That Indicator is in bearish mode and reached level not seen since
October 5 2011 when the Mighty SP500 was at 1165 level.
Also observe the divergence between the % Bullish Index and the Mighty SP500; lower highs from the Index and higher highs from the SP500 since March 2015.
But getting over the 200 DMA on that Indicator at the end of April 2015 ( red line chart below ) have been in the past a first warning sign of overbought conditions building up. ( See chart below - ellipses )
SP500 Index closed below its 200 DMA on August 20, a bad tecnical omen indeed. Also observe the Broken Rising Wedge on SP500 on August 21. ( See Bottom Chart - 50 DMA Blue Line - 200 DMA Red Line ).
But the most interesting factor is that taking the ratio of the Bullish Percentage Index of the SP100 Index over the SP500 Index, we had that ratio near the high of the past 5 years at the end of June 2015; zone associated with market turmoil.
We were warned but did not listen... ( See second chart below - ellipses )
