10am update - morning gains

US indexes look set to build gains into the late morning. The real action is in the precious metals, with Gold -$32, and Silver -2.7%. Equity bulls will be making a play for a daily close above the 50 day MA - currently sp'1846 (and rising).

Summary

Opening gains, and underlying short term momentum could have us stuck in the 1815/45 zone for a few days.

See the following...

I'm starting to wonder if market won't hold up..within a bear flag - much like late January. A few days stuck under the 50 day MA..and I'd be VERY comfortable in shorting this..for another wave..to the 200 day MA - to be  hit next week.

I remain on the sidelines, but will consider picking up a short-index block today, if we get stuck in the low sp'1840s. It really depends on the style of price action.

Having computer issues..if I disappear today..thats why!



10.16am.. 15min cycle in the target zone..and we're already seeing a reaction lower.


10.20am.. well, thats a 9pt reversal already, in just 20mins...

No one wants to buy >1840.


10.37am...minor down wave complete...now another move into the 1840s this afternoon (I'd guess). By then, the hourly chart will likely be maxed out.

*computer issues are almost as annoying as the Fed.
