    Yesterday in Australia:

    A huge range on very heavy volume with the XJO finishing up strongly +4.42%.

    We need to see follow-through buying on Monday to confirm that this is a bottom of the current pull-back. It is not necessarily "the bottom" as bear market rallies can be awesome. I'm treating this as a bear market rally until otherwise proven.

    Overnight:

    The Australian market, as it has been doing all week, pre-empted the American market which had great results:

    SP500:

    Last night's action closed the gap set up by Thursday's action. We should get a pause here.

    Until I get some solid evidence otherwise, I'm treating this as a bear market rally.


    Commodities:

    Commodities Index +1.09%. Base Metals +1.5%. Energy +1.41%. Gold was the big loser -3.05%.

    RSI for DBC hasn't been above 50 for the past two months. Until we see it break above that, any rally will probably be a bear market rally.

    CNN Fear and Greed Index:

    Fear and Greed may be making a short-term bottom, but past history (2018,2019) says to be cautious. This remains a trader's market, not for investors.
