Technology Flexed Its Muscles Yesterday With A Massive Rally

Yesterday was a 180 for the market, as it appeared it wanted to break down in the pre-market, it ultimately managed to reverse course, hold onto critical support at 2801, and bouncing over 30 points off of its lows of the day.

My Swing Trading Approach

Should we get the follow through this morning, I will look to add 1-2 new long positions to the portfolio today. 

Indicators

  • Volatility Index (VIX) - Tried to break out of the downtrend from the 2/5 highs. Instead reversed course, with drop to 12.19. 
  • T2108 (% of stocks trading above their 40-day moving average): Continues to bounce hard off of the rising trend-line from the 2/5 lows. But still a diverging indicator, with a reading of 53%. 
  • Moving averages (SPX​): Held the 20-day moving average while recapturing the 5 and 10-day moving averages. 

Sectors to Watch Today

Technology flexed its muscles yesterday with a massive rally, while Staples showed similar strength as well. Financials hasn't lost it all together just yet, but it is showing some indifference of late. I am unsure about Industrials at this point. It looks like it may be content with settling back into its seven month long trading range.
