Daily Analysis
Market continues to inch higher even in the wake of uncertainty on Fiscal Cliff talks. It looked a little suspect to start the day on Friday but ended the day pretty strong. Gap up and fades always get me a little suspicious because these are usually signs of reversal trends, but the fact that we came back in the end is a bullish signal. What makes me suspicous of this strength is weakness in Technology led by AAPL and GOOG. These two need to reverse soon if we want a broader rally. However Financials and Energy are acting very strong and are likely to lead us higher. Finally, we need a close over 143 on decent volume to be full-on bullish on this market and i stick with first target on upside on 147.65 if we can break and hold 143. Have a feeling that everybody is gearing up for Christmas Rally and thats why we are not seeing major panic. We may continue this pattern unless we see some really really bad news come out of Washington. My trading strategy - BUY LONG but STAY ALERT!!!
