place 2014-12-09 16:23:00 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: where some immediate follow through to the upside on Wednesday would likely put us "off to the races" towards the all time price highs in the

break above the current sideways consolidation in the NASDAQ breadth MCSUM 2014-12-09 16:26:04 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: and with the anticipated power of moving above three areas of resistance in the MCO 2014-12-09 16:26:34 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: this would catapult the MCSUM above the +250 level and we would then be technically "in the clear" across the board 2014-12-09 16:26:48

the SPX breadth MCSUM is still above the +1250 level 2014-12-09 16:35:27 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: and as long as this continues 2014-12-09 16:35:34 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: the path of least

see if volume agrees...so let's look at that 2014-12-09 17:05:55 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: the NYSE CO volume MCO is lagging breadth here 2014-12-09 17:06:36 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: and this is probably why we couldn't quite close positive today 2014-12-09 17:07:02 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: today allowed the 5% Trend of the CO volume MCO to bounce today 2014-12-09 17:07:14 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: while the 10% Trend is still well below its zero line 2014-12-09 17:07:21 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: not a bullish thing near term 2014-12-09 17:07:46 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat:

moving past its all time highs 2014-12-09 17:09:08 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: but with breadth more neutral 2014-12-09 17:09:16 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: it can keep prices within the trading range

fib_1618 -> Chat: literally straight down with little in the way of texture 2014-12-09 17:12:10 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: the components here too remain on the positive side of the zero line 2014-12-09 17:12:45 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: small point change in the SPX volume MCO 2014-12-09 17:13:24 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: and the buyers will really need to move above the declining

Chat: you can't have a trend in either direction until both the MCO and its components agree by being on the same side of their zero lines 2014-12-09 17:15:06 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: so choppy behavior is the usual result 2014-12-09 17:15:27 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: so I guess that last 2 days would count as being choppy...especially after lunch on Monday - no less the last week or so

-> Chat: the MID volume MCO is in much better shape here in relation to its zero line 2014-12-09 17:19:10 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: and looking at the 1 year MID volume MCSUM 2014-12-09 17:19:28 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: and you can see by the congested downside posts that the sellers have no real control here 2014-12-09 17:19:59 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: and we should see at least a rally attempt because of this on Wednesday 2014-12-09 17:20:05 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: still...even if we do see this 2014-12-09 17:20:45 [Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: there is a lot of work still

[Message] fib_1618 -> Chat: is that we need to see this take place before OPEX since the last 2 weeks of the year are like walking through a grave yard as far as participants are concerned 2014-12-09
