Closing Brief

The main indexes all closed higher, with the sp' +13pts @ 1695. The two leaders - Trans/R2K, are leading the way, rising 1.4% and 1.3% respectively. With a fair few bullish breaks this morning, it would seem the market has concluded its down trend.

Summary

*nice to see a closing hour go as expected. Market found good support on the hourly 10MA.
--

So...we have a clear break of the declining trend/resistance, and the close in the mid sp'1690s is arguably more than enough to clarify a trend change.

When you consider the Trans/R2K - which are the leaders, with both indicating continued underlying strength.

*I remain in an underwater long position (from a week ago in the sp'1710s), but considering the bigger weekly trends..it should turn out okay.
