Monthly – March continues the new highs. Trade pressures are up just out of the neutral zone. Volumes closed the month of February as bullish. At the 5233 upside target. The next target up is 5553. A close below 4945 would confirm any weekly move lower.
Weekly – The weekly closes again above the prior week high, but forms a spinning top. Trade pressures remain up. Volumes remain bullish. The next target up is 5390. A close below 5127 would confirm any daily move lower.
Daily – Flat. Trade pressures are up. Volumes remain bullish. The next target up is 5368. The overbought level rises to 5145; still below the next target up. A close below 5166 would signal lower. The expected oversold level rises to 5040 (rising oversold levels are bullish and can be interpreted as a “buy the dips” level.). Friday was a sell-off day with a early morning rally followed by steady selling. Semi conductors experienced the first real retracement.
