My Observations and What to Expect:

  • Futures are showing considerable strength.
  • Asian markets are mixed and European markets are marked with solid gains.
  • 10-day moving average continues to provide support for the S&P. 
  • Strong possibility we see a breakout to new short-term highs today. Indicative that the current trend is likely to continue. 
  • Strong open will provide a great opportunity to tighten up stop-losses substantially. 
  • Very little resistance standing in the way between current price levels and April highs. 
  • Outside chance today that we challenge the 1200 mark on the S&P. 
  • The main goal of bears should be to simply keep this market rally in check today and erase the day’s gains – we saw as much happen last week  (Thursday).
