I realize that no one here on ET uses "technicals", but as I pointed out yesterday afternoon on another thread in the Trading Forum, the SPX high at 1291.17 was 38.2% retracement of the move down, and the first resistance level.
I also noted in the Technical Analysis forum ( a couple of days ago ) that yesterday was a fib-89 days from the Bear Stearns low.
Using a 38.2% retracement of the recent move up from 1200.44 will target the 1257 SPX level, with a 50% retracement targeting 1245.80 SPX
There's a lot you can do with simple fib retracements.
