Summary

closing hour action: choppy, but leaning upward.. as s/t momentum ticked upward. The close above the hourly 10MA leans s/t bullish.. even if Tuesday initially opens weak.

… and that concludes Monday. It was a very bearish start to the week, especially considering the market began already s/t oversold (hourly, not daily cycle). Regardless of any ‘turnaround Tuesday’, it’d seem we’ll be tested sp’3100 soon enough… where the 200dma and the monthly 10MA are lurking. Those had better not be settled under next Wednesday, or it’ll make for a m/t trend break.


notable miner: PAAS

Deal with Comcast, to stream NBC’s Peacock service.

Orange gap appears a given. I have spoken. (yes, I’m overly obsessed with the Mandalorian)
