Sentiment update

Sentiment is leaning more to the bearish side from a contrarian perspective but its rather back to neutral taking away most of the upside momentum. From an Astro perspective we have some contradicting patterns but the current new moon should generate some unexpected thought strings with a negative bias but the stationary Mars with the benign Jupiter takes away the edge. Technically the market is close to the high but the VIX needs a final dive below 17.5 to complete and the TRANS needs a higher weekly close so the most likely outcome is sideways swings with a small spike up within the next 2 weeks before the downmove begins around an unpleasant Full Moon on the 29th and the stationary Pluto on April 6th which should cause plenty of trouble since the Full Moon is in square to the above mentioned Pluto.
