Technical Analysis of the S&P 500

During Tuesday's trading session, the S&P 500 dropped down slightly to indicate hints of weakness, but then rallied to challenge the 50 Day EMA. In the end, if we can break over the 50 Day EMA, we'll most likely go for the 4500 level. The market's break over the 4500 level opens the door to a move to the 4600 level, although that level is likely to be tough to reach at this time.


Keep an eye on the interest rate situation in the United States, which will continue to be a key issue, since we have seen so much in the form of a headwind for the stock markets. Keep in mind that the market is going to experience a lot of noise at best, so keep that in mind. I believe that if we break below the hammer from Monday's session, we will be able to break below the 4350 level, which would open up the 4300 level, and then the 4100 level.

There are lots of unfavorable conditions out there that continue to work against a stronger stock market, so it's understandable that we'll see a lot more selling pressure in the future. If you notice symptoms of fatigue, I believe you should either purchase puts or take gains if you are a "long-only" trader. At best, the market is highly loud, so you should be wary of the volatility and keep your position size minimal.
