SPX and COMPQ Updates
Last update noted that if SPX could clear the black line immediately overhead, it would likely generate a larger bounce. SPX did clear black -- and again proved the value of the near-term chart below:
Note that the potential second target above (in the event of a breakdown) lines up roughly with the green line below:
COMPQ bounced from the median channel line, and has since dropped back to it (I'm not updating this chart because Stockcharts is doing that thing where it deletes all my annotations if I update):
In conclusion, the market rallied to resistance yesterday, then was rejected straight back to support (so could bounce today, if it so chooses). In the event support fails, we have our next potential targets. Trade safe.

SPX, COMPQ, NYA: Tagging Resistance
So a few markets now are testing resistance zones.
COMPQ, as previously discussed:
NYA:
And SPX:
We do not yet have any impulsive declines to form a more concrete opinion, but if resistance behaves as resistance (which it does not always do -- otherwise, there would be no bull markets, just centuries of sideways grind), the market may pause/correct a bit here. We'll be on alert for an impulsive turn to signal whether that's going to happen in this case or not. Trade safe.
