Summary
SPX: another day of considerable chop, settling +0.03% at 6068. Unless >6100, I still expect a washout to 5905, as looks viable Thursday.
NAS: settling -0.4% to 19643. Today’s candle is a hollow red reversal, and leans s/t bullish.
R2K: settling -0.6% to 225.72. Monday’s black candle played out. Today’s candle is a hollow red reversal, and leans s/t bullish.
Trans: the fifth day higher of six, settling +0.4% to 16376. Momo prone to turning positive, but I’m inclined to look for a stall from just under the 50dma.
