SXC/Long (COAL)   SXC has put together a Candlestick rounded bottom and also has broken into a rounded bottom breakout strategy pattern.  With resistance around the $3.80 and support near the $3.00 area, I am wanting SXC to be on my buy candidate watch list, whether it’s today or a few days from now.
The Hit & Run Candlesticks trading room offers education and great trade ideas.

SPY Attitude:  Last week the 60-minute chart triggered bullish while the daily chart was still triggering bearish, and Friday was very powerful and now has a bullish attitude thanks to Japan.  Overall, the bears are still  in control of the trend from January 1 this year, while price nearly tagged the 50 percent retracement Friday.  I still see resistance at $195.15, while support has moved up now to 190.55.

SPY:  The SPY left us yesterday in a bearish bias. Over $190.50, the attitude would be bullish for a relief rally.  At the close yesterday, the Bulls were able to defend $187.50 while price closed below the T-Line leaving the bears with the upper hand.  If the Bulls lose the

SPY:  So far this year, the sellers have been dominant allowing the buyers very few short-term rallies; the best short-term rally we’ve seen has been the past five days, and the buyers still have a very tough uphill road ahead.  Yesterday closed above the T-Line, and the morning

SPY: The sellers were able to close price back below the T-Line™ which is now an area of construction as long as the January 20 low holds.  On one hand, we should be extremely cautious that price is back below the T-Line™, but on the other hand I think we should be putting together a list of stocks that are starting to look like our favorite trade setups.

SPY: If the spy went looking for the August 2015 low yesterday, it found it.  And then proceeded to put together an impressive bounce closing at 185.65.  Price and this recent trend is still controlled by the sellers, evidence of this is the inability to breakout over the T-Line™ or breakout over any one of its recent highs.

SPY:  Listen to and watch the charts for clues, and be careful not to jump in the water without testing for alligators.  According to the morning futures, the SPY will be opening up sharper.  Because we don’t think picking bottoms or catching falling knives is a good trading idea, we will allow a bottom to form before we become 100% bullish.  Going into today, over $192.85 would show signs that the Bulls are
