| The Dow clearly bounced back today. The candle is 2.5 times the length of the previous candles. We are still near the bottom of the range and will need a lot of more to really turn this up but it’s a good start. The next challenge will come near the 12,800 resistance level. | The 15-minute chart traced a clear bull flag this morning. A long flag pole at the open, a lot of short covering going on. Consolidation right at the 12k level and the uptrend resumed after lunch. This chart makes me bullish for the open this morning morning. |
Happy Trading!
