DIAMONDS Trust, Series 1 (DIA)
With the Dow having broken down through support on both the daily and weekly charts, I am looking at the possibility of another put position to try to capitalize on a further down move and as a partial hedge against existing bullish positions. I probably will be looking at some slightly in the money puts with about a 4 month expiration.

We hit bull market highs today in the S&P 500 (ES) and NASDAQ 100 (NQ) e-mini futures markets and the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DIA). However, quite a few segments of the market were lagging. New 20-day highs were about 900 on the day, down from over 2500 at the October peak. Notably falling short of bull highs were the Russell 2000 Index (IWM) and the S&P 400 midcap stocks (MDY), as well as the Dow Transports and Utilities.
<>We also failed to make new bull highs across a number of sectors from the S&P 500 universe, including materials shares, energy stocks, financials, homebuilders,...

Indicator Update for October 11th
Last week's indicator review suggested that the summer lows in stocks would likely hold on the market's pullback, with eventual tests of the bull highs to come. That happened in spades, as stocks rose sharply from their lows, making fresh closing lows in the Dow (DIA) and S&P 500 (SPY) averages and taking the sectors back to short-term uptrends.
<>Interestingly, we're seeing progressively weaker upside momentum on market moves higher, as illustrated in the Cumulative Demand/Supply Index (top chart). A similar pattern can be seen in other momentum measures, such as the McClellan Oscillator. ...

ETF Screener - Is Your ETF Naughty Or Nice

We find a mixed bag of items in today’s ETF Screener. We see no major theme, but the possibility of a few new trends emerging on the horizon. On the buy side, many Japanese ETFs were borderline buys, just missing that little bit to push them over the top. The same can be said for Pharmaceutical ETFs as many were three quarters the way home. Don’t be surprised if you see many Japanese and Pharma ETFs make next week’s ETF screener.
