SPX Stock Market Outlook review of Mon Jan 13 2025


Stock Market Outlook: Technical Indicators Review

Momentum: Momentum is falling and negative. It is at oversold readings.

  • Settings: For momentum I use a 10 period when studying market direction.
MACD Histogram: MACD (Moving Averages Convergence / Divergence) issued a down signal on Tuesday Dec 10 2024 . The down signal gained strength on Monday but is near readings that often see a bounce.

  • Settings: For MACD Histogram, I am using the Fast Points set at 13, Slow Points at 26 and Smoothing at 9. 
Ultimate Oscillator: The Ultimate Oscillator is unchanged but actually trending more sideways than either clearly up or down since Dec 24.

  • Settings: The Ultimate Oscillator settings are: Period 1 is 5, Period 2 is 10, Period 3 is 15, Factor 1 is 4, Factor 2 is 2 and Factor 3 is 1. These are not the default settings but are the settings I use with the S&P 500 chart set for 1 to 3 months.
Slow Stochastic: The Slow Stochastic has a down signal in place to start the week.

  • Settings: For the Slow Stochastic I use the K period of 14 and D period of 3. The Slow Stochastic tries to predict the market direction further out than just one day.
Relative Strength Index: The RSI signal is falling but not signaling oversold yet.

  • Settings: The relative strength index is set for a period of 5 which gives it 5 days of market movement to monitor.  It is often the first indicator to show an overbought or oversold signal.
Rate of Change: The rate of change signal is rising and signaling Tuesday will end higher.

  • Settings: Rate Of Change is set for a 21 period. This indicator looks back 21 days and compares price action from the past to the present. With the Rate Of Change, prices are rising when signals are positive. Conversely, prices are falling when signals are negative. As an advance rises, the Rate Of Change signal should also rise higher, otherwise the rally is suspect. A decline should see the Rate Of Change fall into negative signals. The more negative the signals the stronger the decline.

Stock Market Outlook for Tue Jan 14 2025 

The technical indicators are still bearish but there are signals advising that a second bounce could be attempted today. A dip down to the 100 day intraday is likely, probably in the morning.

Today we get the latest Producer Price Index numbers which could help stocks if they are in-line with estimates. If they show more strength, we could see stocks move back lower.

Tomorrow we start into bank quarterly earnings. It won’t be surprising to see the day end higher as investors anticipate strong earnings from the banks.
