Key charts
FTSE 100: upside last week was capped at the 6312, 1/2R Resistance. Multiple rejections at that level and then declined this week. Big Support at 5870, the major. Bulls would want to see that level recovered asap.
DAX: the 4yr is at 12240. As I write pre-open DAX prints almost exactly at that level.
Sentiment: My version of the Rydex Assets Ratio was higher at 11.91. At the recent high SPX had recovered more than 80% of its decline in earlier in the year but the ratio recovered approximately only a third – this would usually be considered a positive for the market. The ratio reached 28.62 on 12/27, the highest reading in my database.
Stocks>50dyma numbers: Nyse 63% (from 57%), Nasdaq 64% (from 60%), R2000 59% (from 53%). Numbers >50 are supportive.
