AS I SEE IT: The market opened a little lower this morning but caught a bid and rallied for two hours before selling back to overnight lows. The rest of the day the market traded a little higher on the Dow but closed a couple points lower in the E-mini S&P contract. This is the fourth day that the market has traded in a small trading range not being able to rally on up from here.
Earnings reports and 118.00 dollar Oil have held this market down so I want to see which one gives first. If Oil holds in here or rallies it looks like the market is going to have a hard time advancing.
Our short term trading strategies are long and the intermediate and long term strategies are short. For me, resistance in the E-mini S&P Futures contract is in the 1394.00 area with support in the 1370.00 area.
I HOPE YOU MADE MONEY TODAY!
Have as much fun trading as I do!
