ONTYSPY:  Trending Bullishly
7:00 am:  In a surprise end of the day push, the SPY closed back above the T-Line™ with a three-day low and all five days respecting the Bullish Engulf that was printed on April 18.  The low of yesterday’s hammer came within pennies of support and may be the clue that the bulls are ready to take another bite out of the bears and possibly form a bullish J-Hook continuation pattern.  For the bullish J-Hook continuation pattern to be formed, the bulls need to swing price above the recent high of $210.92.  If the bullish J-Hook continuation pattern is formed over the next few days, it would be the fifth time the Bulls have constructed this pattern since March 1.  Providing Janet Yellin and the feds choose their words carefully — or even better yet get out of the way — then I suspect the SPY is on a mission to test the $213.78 high of May 5, 2015.  I’ll be watching for pullbacks and consolidation clues around  $211.00  |  $211.50   |  $212.85.

I wrote about $207.00 needing to hold a few days ago, and as of today, it still remains the number the bulls must defend while reaching for new highs.

INAPSPY:  Price > T-Line™
7:00 am:  In Friday’s note we wrote that we would likely see a lower low because of the bearish evening star, and we saw approximately .74 lower low.  The Bulls did close back up over the T-Line™ but two cents below our Warning #1 line.  On a bullish note, the pullback last week was minor because it has stayed above the 38.2% retracement, and the $207 support line is still intact.  As of Friday’s close and what we can see of today’s open,  the bullish trend is still intact, and as long as the Bulls can keep the trend, they will continue to march forward slowly.
One of my major market indicators (URI) is painting a bullish cup and handle breaking out above the 200 SMA on Thursday’s and Friday’s price action. Another is FDX and it is also holding a bullish line and continues to fly right.  The same is true for COPX, the copper minors’ ETF,  which broke out of the 200-SMA a couple of weeks ago and is now working to clear another downward trend line.  These Bulls do seem determined. Even IYT closed Friday with a Bullish Engulf above the T-Line™.

IWM:  Daily chart |T-Line™ | Bullish Engulf

LNKDSPY:  Short Term Signaling a Warning
7:00 am:  Yesterday closed with a BEARISH EVENING STAR which suggests a lower open today (this was discussed in the trading room before the bell yesterday afternoon). In yesterday’s morning blog post, we mentioned that a close below $208.99 would be Warning #1.  Yesterday the SPY closed at $208.97– Warning #1.  We also wrote if a close below $207.00 followed, that would be Warning #2.
With poor earnings from a few big names yesterday, we are likely to see and feel a little disturbance in the force this morning, and it may or may not carry over to the close.

The BEARISH EVENING STAR signal from yesterday is another warning sign.  Overall, the trend is still bullish and the support area still looks good; it’s the short term that’s iffy.  If the bulls take another run at the highs, we will know by the clues from price action – Candlesticks.

SPY:  Price vs T-Line™ Bulls in charge
7:00 am:  Yesterday the SPY managed to eek out a gain of .10% closing with its second Doji.  With two days of doji indecision, it would appear the market is having a tough time figuring out the best direction for price.  The chart continues to suggest bullishness with price leading the T-Line™ and the T-Line™ is still leading up.  BUT be warned  a close below $208.99 would be a warning, and a close below $207.00 would be a stronger warning.

SPY:  Price vs T-Line™ Bulls in charge
7:00 am:  The bullish trend continued yesterday with the SPY closing up .32% with a doji candlestick.  The T-Line™ continues to rise as well as all three of the main moving averages we use, that we call the big three.  There’s no question the market has had a big run and is probably in need of a little profit taking.  There’s also no question that we are high and tight up against resistance.  Remember that it’s price that decides whether we go up or down, and right now price is feeling like it wants to Continue Reading

SPY:  Price vs T-Line™ Bulls in charge
7:00 am:  Yesterday was another strong day for the Bulls with price pulling back to support and the T-Line™, closing above previous price action following through with a Bullish Engulf enhancing the J-Hook continuation pattern. Price closed yesterday on the SPY at $210.09 and I suspect the Bulls will try to reach for the $210.00 area.  Bullish success at $210.00 might create enough energy to reach new highs, but, of course, we should always follow the chart and take our hints and clues from the Continue Reading

SPY:  2-ema vs T-Line™ Short term bulls in control but weakening
7:00 am:  The children playing with oil didn’t get along and couldn’t agree on the rules this weekend, so back to their own little playgrounds they went.  The price of oil continues to drop which is simply putting some pressure on the market this Monday morning.  We might start to see support in USO around the $9.60 down to $9.25.

SPY:  2-ema vs T-Line™ Short term bulls in control
7:00 am:  After the SPY found its way higher yesterday, price pulled back just enough to form a Doji at the end of the day.  The morning futures seem a little weak which may end up producing a little bit of profit taking on this Friday.  A couple of support areas I see are $206.97 and $206.00.  Of course, if the bears lose interest and the Bulls take charge, it is possible we end up today with a Doji continuation pattern that could test the $209.90 area next week.   Continue Reading

SPY:  2-ema vs T-Line™ Short term bulls in control
7:00 am:  Over a 1% move yesterday in the SPY closing above the sideways channel that has been created over the last couple weeks.  It looks like the next little hill the Bulls need to climb over is about $208.90 and support looks to be $205.65  –  $206.90.  Something I’ve experienced over the years is when the market gaps and remains bullish as it did yesterday, the following day or days, we may see slight profit taking that can Continue Reading
