From Today's forecast:
Expect a consolidation off a test of 2611 or 2619.

Earlier in the week I forecast a bearish upthrust and that is what we have. The last 2 days candles are part of an overall "magnetic trading range" that was established on 7/26 (High 2632 - Low 2563). That trading range was tested and rejected on RECORD volume on 8/8 and 8/9. These are the kind of things we look for... clear signals, price rejection on volume, the fact that this comes on all time high record volume is quite important for the long term, no matter what happens short term, as in the next few weeks... we are now in that magnetic trading range on roughly 1/2 the volume of the 8/8 and 8/9 comparison candles. When the price was exceeded on Tuesday on lighter volume, the Nasdaq retreated right back under the trading range, closing inside it at 2630. Going forward, whether or not there is a spike on the open, we're going to test the bottom end of the range.
Today we had another important signal... one that most traders will miss. Today on lighter volume Nasdaq was able to test yesterday's lows, but not the highs. This market is talking to you, I hope you are listening...
For tomorrow the bar gets lowered on the support... we should see 2582 sometime tomorrow and expect a test of the 2557 fib cluster over the next few days... Over and Out.
