The market remains overbought on intermediate-term levels, that can be seen as slightly bullish. Though the bond market continues to signal risk off mode. Furthermore the market is expected to show a strong UP-GAP. UP-GAPs within a overbought environment aren’t the best time to buy. I remain defensive as I want to see a slight pull-back before increasing my long exposure.
