Large caps (SPY/ES) have been out-performing Small-caps and have reached their 1/2R levels off this year’s high – see dashed line. Price printing time above this level would be a sign of strength and Significant Buying marked above would be a positive and indicate higher. The 1/2R off the high will often mark the high of the first rally so these levels will be closely monitored.
