The 650 to 725 area is holding and acting as
resistance and the retracement has occurred. An entry price for
the next up trade has not been hit as yet. If it is hit the next upside
resistance level should be 10,800. Have a good week end all. Ira.

Congratulations on a great set of charts. The
interesting thing is that different people look at the same chart and see
different things. Using the daily chart only it would take a drop of
over 250 points in the Dow to start a retracement with a magnitude of over 1000
points. That leaves a huge stop. For it to even begin 10,400 would
have to be taken out and there would be support at 10,000, that would make
for part of the move, 600 points +/-.
ON the up side I have a very high price target of
just over 13,000, with shorter term targets at 11,025 and 11,280.
There are resistance levels at 10,650, 10,725 and
10,960. These resistance levels are interim price objectives and
retracements should occur from these levels. It is the magnitude of the
retracement that will make the difference as to whether price continues up or
goes down to test previous levels as support.
Like your work Ben.
Just a little different input using different data.
Ira.

The Dow Industrial Average has broken out
of the intermediate consolidation pattern, closing above resistance at [3],
then drawing into a narrow range at [4], before further gains at [5]. Volumes
were light until Friday [5] which experienced increased selling (signaled by
the weak close). Expect a test of resistance at 10900/11000. A pull-back that
respects 10550 would add confirmation; while a retreat below 10550 would
signal further hesitancy.
The last year has established strong support at 10000/9750. There is also
strong resistance at 11000/11500, shown by price action from 1999 to 2001 and
by recent highs in 2005. I expect to see a lot more price action between these
levels before there is a clear breakout. Twiggs
Money Flow (21-day) signals accumulation, with a strong rise above the
zero line. If the indicator rises above the recent high, without crossing
below zero, that would be a further bull signal.
Transport indicators have failed to follow through on recent bear
signals. Watch for a rally that could take out the recent highs: Fedex
above 90.00 and UPS, similarly, above its May high.
The Nasdaq Composite is testing
resistance at 2100. A close above this level (the high of the January to March
consolidation) would signal resumption of the primary up-trend. Friday showed
increased resistance with strong volume and a red candle (weak close); so a
fall below 2050 should not be discounted, signaling a test of support at
1900.
The market appears to have more confidence in the (Dow)
heavyweights.
The S&P 500 shows even greater confidence than the Dow and is
close to testing resistance at the March high of 1225. A close above 1225
would signal resumption of the primary up-trend.

Money Flow (21-day) displays a strong bull signal: a pull-back that held
above the zero line. A rise to a new 6-month high would
confirm.
