Bulls must get SPX above 2743, the 200 dma line this week in order to keep this bullish move running toward 2800 - 2900 area ..................

[redfoliage2]

I believe that bulls just made it................

[redfoliage2]

It looks a breakout with strong breadth ............

[redfoliage2]

But we have to be aware that this market is news-driven.  At this point it can turn down sharply if bad news from the trade talks comes in...........

We are getting deeper into this cycle so I will wait to see how this plays out....  The last few times it moved above the 200 dma there was trouble in the days ahead...  We shall see how this plays out next week....  The SOS continues and so does this daily cycle....

As long as the daily MACD level stays above zero, there's not much downside risk here.  Things can go sideways and consolidate any time, but that's probably about it.  And as soon as the Dec 3 highs get taken out, it's over for the bears for sure.  It won't be even close to a full scale retest of the December lows.

Thanks.....  "there's not much downside risk here"   Is that for ST, MT and LT trading, and does it include LT investors?

I'm a day trader......but this is about completing a bullish cup formation where the Dec 3 high is exceeded.  And then there should be a pullback possibly as far down as the 40 day MA.....something like that.  The right shoulder part of the bottom formation.

I use some of the same type of data, and cycles too.....  On my daily tracking chart below.  For know the trend remains up, but has some risk in my opinion.

This week markets reached the key resistance confluence zone I’ve been outlining and rejected from there. Still $SPX managed to close the week positively by 1 handle making it the 7th consecutive week of uninterrupted gains. Whether this rejection is meaningful remains unproven at this stage. From my perch price discovery remains engaged in a battle for control between 2600 and 2730-2760 on $SPX.  This aggressive rally has achieved what it was technically meant to: Reconnect with moving averages and achieve balance.

But for now it remains a rally below the 200 daily moving average:
