Market Timing

Investors and Traders

For this upward move to have a chance to go further than 3 days, we believe it must get over Dow 10,760 and SPX 1278 on a close today. Then it must hold that level on a closing basis.

Failing that measure will cause us to doubt the strength and potential of this movement in the short term (3-5 days ahead). We will be looking for a prominent sell signal near the closing today if either or both indexes have not met the criteria.

On the downward potential, our key level is now SPX 1257 and Dow 10,600. That is not much of a buffer area, but that is how we are treating this narrow range structure. It’s a proverbial fly or die day.

Update Here
We’ll update later in the morning and perhaps in the afternoon, if the indexes are not performing according to our scenarios.

Good Trading and God bless.
