Descending Channel on the SPX, 100-day Test on the RUT

Below is the 5-day chart of the SPX with a ‘extra day’ added on for today. See the descending channel? Use that as your short-term guide.

spx5dp38spx5m

The RUT is now at the 100-day MA as it formed a doji yesterday. There wasn’t much of a fight at the 50-day, so let’s see if we see some struggle here. Make note that this is the first time the RUT touched the 100-day since April.

    CA – that channel is clean & obvious on a 1 hour chart both SPX & /ES

    /DX broke the channel overnight – I wanted to get it on the way out but no banana for me.

    it should TRY to break back in – will see how it acts there before shorting the Euro.

    /CL plays today will only be day trades – no overnights into inventory.

    /CL – watch the 76.50 area – violation with volume could get us to 75.20 in a hurry

    otherwise – a move up above 78 should follow through to 78.80 area – it would have to be before 2:15 though

    Expect some more late day moves higher….

    SGP deletion. It is estimated that this will throw off $1.5 –
    $2.0bn of excess cash, which indexers will use to buy the
    remaining 499 index constituents. Could provide a nice late day
    market boost.

    still laughing “just CHILL OUT!” and “why would you DO that? that’s CRAZY!” and (re 200 MA) “what’s it DOING here? nothing!!!”

    all five classes have been so good– but this was the best yet with you teaching right into the camera
    and making it super P-L-A-I-N– what a gift for teaching– thx CA
