Instant Meltdown. Just Add Panic

As is prerequisite, the stoned Idiocracy is still stewing in its own juices and keeping up with the Kardashians. 

Chart of the day: "Distribution"  
aka. institutions selling to the usual bagholders (down volume - up volume)


This sets up system test for Skynet...

Houston, we have a fucking problem

Small caps:


The Skynet Illusion
S&P 500: % of stocks above 200 DMA


IPO Pump and Dump
% of Nasdaq Stocks Above 200 DMA
4 year low


HALO Crash Visualized
Canadian stocks below the 200 DMA
Down 8.5%. Six months of gains. Gone.



Fracking Shellacking
Energy Sector ETF:
A year of gains evaporated


BTFC: Buy the Fucking Collapse
Down volume as a ratio of Up Volume
Despite the rising selling volume above, total volume is rising almost as fast, hence the ratio of down/up volume is muted. Investors are still hiding out in the largest mega caps such as Apple, Microsoft and Facebook


Too late to hedge
Put/Call Index Ratio
Risk is binary
