ONWARD AND UPWARD

Despite October's economic and geopolitical worries, neither has pushed the stock market down, as it slowly rises through technical past Resistance levels - we are now getting into "possible" 2016 potential stock sellers. It appears that the feared October massacre might have happened in Sept. this year (TBD).

One of the least reliable sentiment signals (which should be more effective) - legal Insider Selling by CEOs, etc. was huge last week. But Buying, in May of 2009 - the start of this Bull cycle- is still the record: totally wrong.
As one can see below, most of the Sentiment Indicators have righted themselves to the Bullish (for the market) side - only the fullness of time will tell!!
