Daily Market Commentary: Russell 2000 Finds Support At 200-day MA
It was a wide range day, but bulls were able to regain some of the mid-afternoon weakness by the close. Intraday weakness for the Russell 2000 found support at the 200-day MA, although the finishing close did not necessarily end bullish.
Weekly Market Commentary: Selling Continues As Volume Eases Thursday
Thursday's sell off got some continuation on Friday, but volume dropped as the number of bailing sellers dropped. All indices now sit inside No-Man's Land of between 50-day and 200-day MAs - where it becomes harder for either side to gain an advantage.
Daly Market Commentary: S&P Breakdown
n relative terms, the S&P has been well ahead of the Russell 2000 and Nasdaq for bullishness, but yesterday was an important victory for bears.
Daily Market Commentary: Sizable Rally, But No Volume
Wednesday's finish offered bulls their day trade opportunity, but the volume wasn't really there to suggest something more than a bear rally. However, the overall trend remains on the side of the bulls.
Daily Market Commentary: Buyers Return At Support
The S&P played to form on Tuesday with buyers coming in at converged support and 50-day MA. There was even a morning sell off and recovery for those nimble enough to take advantage. The intraday picture is nicely set up for an upside breakout.
Daily Market Commentary: Selling Overshoot
Buyers offered very little on the day, which was somewhat unexpected given large sell offs in recent months have found it hard to gain traction.
Daily Market Commentary: Big Loss Inside Range
Large losses on weak jobs data offered bears an opportunity to go on the offensive. The S&P was least affected by Friday's sell off, but still enough to finish the day with a 'bull trap'. There was also a 'sell' trigger in On-Balance-Volume.
Daily Market Commentary: Sellers Pay A Visit
The swing trade opportunity sided with the bears, but for Large Caps it wasn't a big swing. The S&P maintained its breakout, and could take another loss and remain above breakout support.
Daily Market Commentary: Dow Preparing For Breakout
It's looking good for the Dow following yesterday's breakout in the S&P. There was a uptick in technicals with a 'buy' signal in On-Balance-Volume following a recent 'buy' signal in the MACD. Support comes in around 16,450 with the 20-day MA an alternative support level.
Daily Market Commentary: S&P Breakout
The week continued its bright start with a resistance break for the S&P. Technicals are improving, with the MACD and On-Balance-Volume on the verge of a new 'buy' trigger.
Daily Market Commentary: Second Time Lucky
Buyers had laid out the ground rules for Monday's gain on Friday, and they grabbed their opportunity with both hands. Small Caps had the best of the action (as it had suffered the most at the hands of sellers), pushing itself back above its 50-day MA.
Daily Market Commentary: Failed Bounce
Interesting action in the markets. Five days of sharp selling in the Russell 2000 should have set up for a relief bounce, but bears were quick to sell the morning bounce bringing markets back to their open price by the close of business.
Daily Market Commentary: Small Caps Rout
A day of hidden losses. The S&P rejected a fresh test of resistance, but didn't take significant losses by the close. Volume climbed to register distribution, but it was well below Friday's whopper volume.
Daily Market Commentary: Stalled Rally
Buyers concentrated their attentions on the S&P, but the attempted rally stalled as it approached yesterday's high (which is below larger resistance). Bulls may yet attempt another rally tomorrow, although after today's close the S&P is scored even between bulls and bears.
Daily Market Commentary: Day 2 To Sellers
Bears were able to push markets into a second day of selling, but the last time they were able to chalk a third day of selling in a row was December. In bears favor is the lack of support; for example, the next support level for the S&P is the 50-day MA.
Weekly Market Commentary: Rejection Of S&P Highs
Friday was set up for bulls, but in the end they couldn't maintain the push. The S&P experienced the largest swing as it closed at a new high, but rejected an attempted a follow through near midday.
