Good morning. Happy Thursday.<\/span>
\nThe Asian\/Pacific markets closed mixed without any standout winners or losers. Europe is currently down across the board – there are a couple 1% losers. Futures here in the States suggest a sizable gap down open for the cash market. This comes off a big up Mon and flat, listless trading Tues and Wed. <\/span>
\nHere’s the daily SPX. The trendlines don’t mean much – they just outline the small range we’ve had the last two days. The trend is up, but today’s open, which will be below yesterday’s low, will shake the tree a little.<\/span>
\n\"\"
\nHere’s the 15-min SPY chart. I use it because it shows the gaps better than the SPX. A gap from each of the last two Monday’s remains unfilled below (and there are probably at least 10 other unfilled gaps going back to the March low).<\/span>
\n\"\"
\nThe trend is up, but I can’t say trading has been easy. We’re not getting much follow through on breakouts, and so much of the market’s upside progress is concentrated in a single day here and there, the recent environment hasn’t been conducive to anything but very short term trading.<\/span>
