Pre-open comment Tuesday 8th April
On Monday I marked Aggressive Selling again. These red-at-bottom lows are usually (80%) tested within a day or two and that would suggest a test of the six month Support at 1835.50. Bulls would hope that Buyers react to such a test because price printing time below that level would suggest further weakness. Breadth numbers deteriorated again yesterday, see below. Supporting Charts are also looking more negative, see below.
First Level Resistance = ES 1872.50 (30dy poc)
First Level Support = ES 1835.50 (6mn poc)
Stock Index ETFs: Momentum (PriceOsc) for SPY, IWM and QQQ is now negative and down. Only DIA has positive Momentum.
Stocks>50dyma numbers: Nyse 55% (from 68%), Nasdaq 37% (from 44%), R2000 42% (from 51%). Numbers >50 are considered supportive.
Sentiment: Rydex data was unavailable. Will update and rpublish as soon as possible.
