3pm update - 4 of 7

US equities are set for the fourth positive day of the last seven, since the low of sp'1810. Considering current price momentum on the daily/weekly cycles, a further push into the resistance zone of 1950/65 zone looks due.. before things get somewhat uncertain.

Summary

Clearly, the Feb'1st peak of 1947 is offering some resistance, but it won't likely hold.

Mr Market will surely at least want to spook more bears out into the 1950/60s tomorrow/Wednesday.

From there, pretty high threat of a cool down into end month.. as many (even the infamous Gartman) recognise the broader trend is still bearish.

Again, broadly.. the weekly cycles are likely to tick higher for another 2-3 weeks.. so there still doesn't seem any hurry for those looking to place strategic shorts for a major wave lower into the 1700/1600s in April.

Going through a fair few individual company charts... Boeing (BA) is a rather good example, why some could argue we're headed a further 3% higher...

BA, daily


First target is an upper gap fill around $127, where the daily upper bollinger and the 50dma will be lurking into March. A major bearish target for BA is the mid $70s... but that is indeed a long... long way down.
