The trendline held

820-830 wasn't even resistance but 840 was. The market failed to get above it's downtrend line drawn from November and January. The $DJX(Dow) failed to close above 8000 though.


As I mentioned this morning, the brown trendline broke. It was a good place to go long for a day trade. When the market gaps up more then 1.5%, it will usually result in a trend day.
I would be very careful tomorrow being short, if the market moves up more. Here is why. Look at the Bull Flag that has formed. If this was be a valid flag and break out it would move a possible 25 point move higher.


I went long SRS after seeing IYR also failed to break out of it's downtrend line.
