What Bulls Giveth, Bears Taketh Away
Sunday, July 2, 2017 6:18 PM EDT
The number of new highs has been spiking in a fashion similar to 2010/2011/2013 (while new lows flatlined) but this hasn't always been a marker for a top as in 2013. It's worth watching but be wary of commentators overstating its importance.

Thursday, June 22, 2017 8:37 PM EDT
There wasn't much to say about today, but the one index which caught my attention was the Russell 2000. The index caught a bounce in demand at the rising trendline and also did enough to recover the 20-day MA.

S&P Breakout + Tech Support Bounce
Monday, June 19, 2017 8:59 PM EDT
If volume wasn't just a little disappointing this would have been considered a super solid day for bulls. Having said that, shorts will be feeling the squeeze and anyone short the Dow Jones would have been feeling particularly aggrieved.
