We even wrote an article about it, deciding not to publish as it read like panic clickbait. Some analysts had pointed out the markets were in a similar position, ready for a sharp drop. Needless to say, markets WERE NOT in such a state but following reversals this week, we&#8217;re substantially less confident calamity isn&#8217;t far away.<\/p>\n<p>When we reviewed matters prior to the 23rd anniversary of &#8220;Black Monday&#8221;, the DOW was trading around 28,700 points and we calculated in US index needed reverse below 26,500 before we&#8217;d risk concerns for the future. Alas, on Wednesday 28th, the DOW managed to bottom at 26,497 points and so far, we&#8217;re not seeing great evidence of a recoil in horror from the horrid reversal potential which just triggered (by only 3 points, it must be said).<\/p>\n<p>The immediate situation is quite dangerous, weakness now below 26,497 risking entering a cycle to an initial 24,300 points. While this sounds dramatic, our secondary and hopeful bottom calculation comes in at 20,700 points. The secondary &#8220;bottom&#8221; number has a pretty unpleasant implication, taking the index into a zone where a hopefully ultimate wipe-out allows for an eventual 17,270 points. As the visuals confirm, this would entirely undo all the Dow Jones gains during the current Trump presidency! It&#8217;s perhaps not the ideal image to portray during a US Presidential shambles.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If this has all been a dreadful aberration, due to Covid-19 fears once again making themselves known worldwide, early signals of this being an over-reaction shall come if the US index manages exceed 26,830 points as this calculates with the potential of a fairly tame sounding 27,035 points. Achieving a rebound at this level will be the first tickbox hinting bottom is &#8220;in&#8221;. If bettered, our secondary calculation works out at 27,250 points and allows a deep breath. Above such a point, we shall tend relax and run the numbers again.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s almost Halloween. Perhaps the market is just giving the world a bit of a fright&#8230; Or should we anticipate &#8220;Halloween Market Massacre&#8221; headlines?<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.trendsandtargets.com\/img\/dji281020.jpg\" alt=\"Hey, chart goes here\" width=\"597\" height=\"387\" border=\"0\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.trendsandtargets.com\/offer_subscribe.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.trendsandtargets.com\/images\/specialoffer.gif\" border=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>FUTURES<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Time Issued<\/td>\n<td>Market<\/td>\n<td>Price At Issue<\/td>\n<td>Short Entry<\/td>\n<td>Fast Exit<\/td>\n<td>Slow Exit<\/td>\n<td>Stop<\/td>\n<td>Long Entry<\/td>\n<td>Fast Exit<\/td>\n<td>Slow Exit<\/td>\n<td>Stop<\/td>\n<td>Prior<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:30:39PM<\/td>\n<td>GOLD<\/td>\n<td>1878<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:33:01PM<\/td>\n<td>BRENT<\/td>\n<td>39.56<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:39:08PM<\/td>\n<td>FTSE<\/td>\n<td>5564.45<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:49:09PM<\/td>\n<td>FRANCE<\/td>\n<td>4552<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:53:16PM<\/td>\n<td>GERMANY<\/td>\n<td>11534<\/td>\n<td>11452<\/td>\n<td>11243<\/td>\n<td>10975<\/td>\n<td>11655<\/td>\n<td>11650<\/td>\n<td>11695<\/td>\n<td>11776<\/td>\n<td>11540<\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:56:12PM<\/td>\n<td>US500<\/td>\n<td>3286.92<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>11:01:21PM<\/td>\n<td>DOW<\/td>\n<td>26645<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>11:04:17PM<\/td>\n<td>NASDAQ<\/td>\n<td>11212<\/td>\n<td>11130<\/td>\n<td>11090<\/td>\n<td>11049<\/td>\n<td>11290<\/td>\n<td>11309<\/td>\n<td>11378.5<\/td>\n<td>11467<\/td>\n<td>11202<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>11:07:06PM<\/td>\n<td>JAPAN<\/td>\n<td>23106<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h5>28\/10\/2020 FTSE Closed at 5582 points.
