I am bullish on this US market but the one thing that is bugging me is China.

 

you will notice that they were down hard in the previous session and there is a real issue that their market is being propped up by just a few stocks.  

 

I believe that the EEM index may give a heads up as to what the US market will do after the tax bill buying fades

Swisstrader,
 
Your stop is pretty big. What kind of profit objective are you looking at ?

 
2440-2390 Area
 
But this initial stop will be modified in a trailing stop once that some price levels will be reached

What is your time frame for this target?

 

 

2/3 months, but it's not so easy to predict time and price.

 

 

But with breadth and volume analysis you can forecast a doable working window within a week or so.

 

Everything works together in a rhythm...you just have to decipher whether it's hip hop or classical.

 

Fib

 

Maybe you'll show me a volume chart since you don't seem to have a liquidity chart?

I have raised the stop loss again @ 2688

 

I need to watch if this market will be able to close above 2660 today and tomorrow.

Out @ 2660,54 (-7 points)

 

It looks like 2690/2700 is the next target......

The problem is the gap up above 2650...

 

Until the SPX holds 2650 on a daily basis, the odds are for a new leg up to the magnet area 2690/2710
