Will Tomorrow be the Worst Market Drop of the Year?

Today I have been asking myself a question all day. Will tomorrow be the worst market drop of the year? We have seen the weakness in the S&P 500 over the last three weeks, and we just had our first drop of over 1% two days ago after 109 days of not seeing one. We posted a blog post that morning and it was also sent in an email to our subscribers at 10:19 on that morning. Here is what I wrote. https://www.spytrader.net/single-post/2017/03/21/Will-The-SP-500-Get-a-1-Drop-This-Week

Now lets look closer at tomorrow

I done some research and tomorrow shows since 1957 the S&P 500 has dropped on March 24th 54% of the time. Then I looked at the worst single day drop in the S&P for each of the last 60 years, the date March 24th came up twice once in 1975 with a -2.36% drop and the other in 2003 with a -3.52% drop. Now combine this with the weakness we have been seeing in the S&P and the vix getting stronger. From past history it looks like tomorrow could be a scary day for the bulls. My position is cash for tomorrow.

In the chart below you can see where a drop of -2.36% would take the S&P down to 2289 and a drop of -3.52 would take it down to 2262.

I have been looking at https://www.spytrader.net website very interesting

I hope this plays out because I got long VXX tuesday afternoon at 15.50 by way of a credit spread. Another leg up from 17 (todays closing) and I can close out early instead of waiting for the options to expire.

Interesting analysis. I too am thinking that either yesterday/today was an inflection point for the SPY. We are either continuing higher or your analysis of a lower market is in store. Personally, I would like it to fall as I have some VIX options that are out of the money and it will create a great entry point to go long US stocks.

Lets see what happens!
