thanks for all the posts…i have enjoyed the site immensly…only wish you had more time to enjoy it too.
there’s the extended drop. i had a feeling this drop would continue a bit lower…

there should be a bounce around this 879-880 area…i have a fib retrace there.
hmmm….intraday commentary here perhaps?
The S&P traded into a tight trading range and it was unable to breakout in any main direction. There where several negatives for the bulls since prices traded into the close near the 50dma and there are several bearish key reversals in multiple timeframes that occurred on Friday.
Today:
Bulls: Prices need to strengthen here at the 50dma and begin its advance with some momentum. There are several negatives that are playing out that could make this less likely. Prices could break below the 50dma and trade into the 850 area and still be in a uptrend, but prices must hold that for the bulls and would be a negative if broken.
Bears: Prices sold off into the 50dma and a break there will be a negative for the marketplace. We are seeing some key reversals in multiple timeframes and since prices went through a corrective move or retracement the bears need to watch for strength to set in and careful near the important 850 range. A break of the 850 range would be a positive thing for the bears.
We could see a move into the 850 range as prices continue the corrective move and of course the 50dma should play and an important confirmation. It also appears that the financial sector should experience some weakness and could create some market weakness.
Support / Resistance:
918-920 2nd resistance
900-902 1st resistance
880-882 1st support
850-852 2nd support
Traders need to watch the 850 range for a potential bounce and it may not have the momentum to sustain a rally. It does appear that prices have lacked the upside momentum that you would need or expect in a healthy up trend. We are getting closer to confirming that fact and we could see prices resume the primary trend soon.

Hey Folks, where are the regulars? We are expecting a bounce today/tomorrow. A higher likelihood of a bounce tomorrow. As of now, we believe this correction is close to being done. Our “index to watch” is the $RUT. Nothing suggests anything this is anything other than a normal pullback, as of now.
