KNDI was a big success with its gap to the 200-simple moving average.  On the other hand,

yesterday’s featured trade idea, NTLS, was downgraded and ran to the 50-simple moving average. NTLS should not have been bought or should have stopped out around $5.70 that I posted.

Good Morning, 

SPY:  Follow-through or trend continuation is very important for the success of a swing trader.  With yesterday’s close of $208.58,it was $.12 from the number we needed it to close.  The follow-through in the very short-term trend that has been created is currently a bullish bounce at best.  The overhead resistance and sellers are still a threat until the buyers can close over the resistance.  With the FOMC meetings on Wednesday, the likelihood of this market going anywhere too fast is unlikely, so pack your lunch and settle in.  The price action will tell the story and you can visually see the price action in the candlesticks.  Keep it simple and follow your charts.

The following are numbers that the market must confront, beat and hold in short order; otherwise, we could see a sellers’ pattern develop:
SPY     $208.70
IWM     stay above $121.95
DIA     $180.12
QQQ     $106.31

IWM:  IWM still leads the race while closing at $123.33 above the big three moving averages and the T-Line.  There’s still a bit of overhead resistance from the recent high of  $123.78.  Above $121.95, the buyers maintain control; below $121.95, the sellers gain control and the possibility of retesting the recent March lows.
