Major US Indices Forecast, October 19, 2017, Technical Analysis

S&P 500

The S&P 500 went sideways initially during the session on Wednesday, testing the 2555 handle. That level offer plenty of support, and it looks likely that the market rallying to the 2565 level was the first sign that the buyers are coming back, and now as I record this video, I recognize that the 2565 level above being broken to the upside should have more money flowing into this market.

We pulled back during the day, reaching towards the 6100-level underneath to find support. We have bounce from there, and it looks like we will continue to grind our way to the upside. The 6050-level underneath is the “floor” in the market, and the market continues to buy on dips. The 24-hour exponential moving average is turning out, and it seems to be a nice measuring stick for traders to get involved. The NASDAQ 100 has been a leader longer-term, but it seems like more money is flowing into industrials now than technology, perhaps trying to play catch-up… Read More
