Dow About to Break Out?

Quote from nitro:

The resistance is getting thicker and thicker, and with all the Geopolitical worries, it is hard to imagine it going there on it's own.

Earning season started with AA on a bad note. INTC is not much better.

Predicting is a bad business to be in, but I vote no breakout and very range bound volatile trading that is exciting on open + 1 hour and close - 30 minutes, and boring the rest of the time.

Like Nitro,I wouldnt call it predicting. Prepare for long or short.

On technicals & earnings think shorts look more likely on DIA family than SPY or NasdaQQQ.:cool: Last two look real strong.

I don't get it; what are you trying to say?

Nothing, I just like the word bellwether and how people on TV use it without understanding its meaning.
 
Quote from Corso482:

Very nice ascending triangle on the Dow's 60 minute chart...

They do not all break out up to the upside. Triangles can be completions to a move and in this case, my money (if I were a position trader) would be on the short side.

To me a chart without indicators is meaningless.

I see it as a consolidation at the top.

Shankar Sharma, chief technical strategist at First Global, said recent market action suggests that over the next 12 to 72 hours, the U.S. equity market will crack, and crack big. He noted that while the major market indexes erased early losses to close nearly flat on Friday, the reversed occured on Monday. Sharma feels the networking and semiconductor sectors will be hit the hardest. The Amex Networking Index ($NWX) is currently gaining 4.9 percent and is now up 31 percent since the end of 2002. The Phlx Semiconductor Index ($SOX) is now up 2.5 percent for a year-to-date gain of 18 percent.
