Signals & Trading Plan for Thursday 8/29/19

Market context
When we zoom out a bit and look at the big picture, we observe something interesting.  

The most dramatic price drop for Major Pullback2 came on August 5, four days after the first China tariff tweet of August 1.  This was accompanied by a dramatic surge in $VIX $VXN.
On August 23, we had a very dramatic day in terms of events:  

1. The Fed saying they don’t have adequate tools or experience in fixing trade war.
2. BOE Governor discussing liquidty trap.
3. China announcing retaliation tariff.
4. Mr. Trump announcing more retaliations.

Yet prices did not drop as low as August 5.  $VIX $VXN did not rise as high as August 5.

This tells us that Major Pullback2 is losing its selling momentum.  If prices can survive August 23, they can survive a lot of dramatic events.  

This suggests that Surge7 is around the corner.  Major Pullback2 is approaching its end.  The Up Trend that started on 12/26/18 is likely to resume soon.
