Stock market today 15th November 2016 – pre-open from Chartprofit
On Thursday last week I wrote that the poc of the current distribution (which began in June) had migrated to 2159.50 and this suggeted completion and that a new directional move may well be about to begin. See highlighted comments. Since then price has spent more time at that level building the poc which it often does at the end of a distribution. I’m thinking that Significant Buying (green) now marked above that level or Selling (red) marked below will mark the start of the next move.
SPY momentum is now positive, see Pulse chart.
Support/Resistance = 2159.50 (now 6month poc)
Second Level Support = 2106.50 (1/2R off August high)
Major poc = 2087.00
