Sitting at Resistance

11th April 2010

It is almost like the stock market read my post from last week as stock indexes are sitting right at the resistance levels I wrote about. To reiterate, those levels are 11,000 for the DJIA, 1200 for the SP 500, and 200 for the MNX. There will be a lot of news this week that can move the market off of these levels including 1st Quarter earnings, options expiration, and financial issues around the world. I am not going to predict which way the market is going to go, but I will be watching closely to see if caution prevails or if bulls continue their assault on the rebound from the financial crisis.

Rising Ceiling

4th April 2010

The good news is that stocks continue to act like they have hit a ceiling, but the ceiling keeps getting a little higher. For now, those levels are 11,000 for the DJIA, 1200 for the SP 500, and 200 for the MNX. The bad news is that the down days are coming with more volume than the up days. There is no reason to be overly bullish or bearish at this time. Option traders continue to be best served with spread trades sell some premium to take advantage of time decay.
