Quote from EliteThink:
dj has risen above a significant high, and spx is appearing to do so as well, but looks as though simply drifting up. If buying comes thru with conviction, i.e. spx 1271ish, 1290 should come quickly. On the contrary side, today is the 5th day up in a row, if it closes higher. Statistically, 6 days up are somewhat rare and a pull back could potentially be seen instead. Systems which trade counter to a 5 day move typically have a high win rate. A shrunken ATR is also a sign of a top, but clearly it is likely due to the Christmas/holiday season. Good trading.
