3pm update - weakness into the close

The main market has seen another micro cycle to the upside, but there is still an air of weakness in this market, especially seen in the Trans/R2K. A close in the 1755/45 zone looks..probable. Metals and Oil holding declines.

Summary

A tiresome..and somewhat sleepy end to the week.

There really isn't anything going on in market land,

At present, we are only fractionally lower on the week, but almost 1% lower from the 1775 high.

3.27pm...the micro 5/15min cycles are prone to a significant drop in the remaining 30mins.

A close in the 1740s..is just about possible.

3.37pm.. sp'1761...poor bears..getting short-stopped out. There is just a lack of downside power in the main indexes (Trans/R2K) still weak though.

A weekly close of 1760 would be about flat...a doji candle, and no doubt, some will tout that as a major top sign. 


3.44pm.. Oil.. -1.7%. That is something not many are noticing today. Sure will help the general economy..and especially those transport and mining stocks - the latter are especially heavy dependent on fuel.

Main market, sp'1762, and the bears just not able to halt this afternoon micro rally.

For many..an annoying end to the week.
