SPY: more downside to come

Short
AMEX:SPY   SPDR S&P 500 ETF TRUST
As we have previously discussed, we have entered a bear market and must trade smart as the market shows it's true colors and prices fluctuate with volatility.

Displayed in this comparison are two extremely similar conditions from 2002 and present day SPY movement.

It's easy to see that movement from the left chart appears to be more stable than it is before coming down a significant amount more. One of my main concerns with how similar these movements are to todays, is the additional range of motion and strength in which these pullback are occurring. While we anticipated a test around SPY 213 inside the first month of 2019 these charts above suggest a larger move possible.

For those staying up with my comments on SPY, I am concerned and anticipate parabolic movement has a higher probability sooner than expected. The issue with going parabolic is it can exasperate the downtrend forcing it lower and making it less about consolidation and showing true value, and more about panic and selloff.
