Today's sharp downturn raises the odds of a retest of the lows; we'll be watching to make sure that internals like new lows and declining issues don't expand too much in the process. Trading Stock Market:: Last week in my "S&P 500 post" based on the 60-day technical analysis I have .. continue to move up and then side way with further drop and retesting of http://trading-stock-market.blogspot.com/HOME |
Looking at the intraday chart on the S&P 500 (first chart below), we see a sharp drop at the open followed by a grind lower the rest of the day. This is potentially bullish action, since it suggests the possibility of an overreaction to the day's news but the S&P needs to clear that downtrend line at 1347 and falling to confirm that possibility.
On the other hand, if the market continues lower from here, the decline could accelerate since we're already below the lower trendline of that pattern, so tomorrow's action could be important.
