with the breach of 16100 yesterday on NAZ, things could get dicey fast....

Unless bulls can reclaim that area fast, NAZ may be just about to go over the falls...

 

A close under 15700 on the weekly chart would likely be no bueno....as momo picture looking pretty weak.....

And there's the pivot at 15700...right where expected...now bulls have to hold it....

 

Failure to do so could have dire consequences.....

 

momo is waning......

Okay, the time for settlements for the Dec index options and index future options just passed, the market should return to business as usual.  It's quite a week!

Just so you know the settlement is figured out in about 2 minutes on average after the open.  The big problem is because it is the first trade of each stock you can get massive swings in settlements at times and the reason why 99.9% of people are out of their trades before hand.  I know that's an exaggeration but still lol!!  SP500 December expiration settlement value was 4636.46.  And just like that average long now 4635 lol!!
