Hiker, IYV, is that bullish or bearish? At what level would the turn be?

reply to DrSP

what do you think? if you had a gun to your head forcing you to use only one moving average to decide whether to buy dips or sell rips:

1. is the SPX 200day sma most important for forming a trade bias?

2. 20day sma?

3. 50day sma?

4. 65day sma?

5. 100day sma?

6. 600day sma?
