R.B.I. Trader's Update

12 / 21 / 2009

Dateline: 6:22 pm eastern time, 12/21/2009


The market gapped up on Monday and kept going until reaching
the 1111.50-1112.00 resistance zone on the ES. The 1112.00
level was rejected and the ES pulled back to 1109.00 updated
support before heading back up. The bounce failed at
1113.25, and after the break the 1111.25 level was new
resistance. A bounce from the 1109.00 support was reversed
at 1111.50 and it started a drop to 1107.50 and a poor
close.

We get GDP before the open on Tuesday, and the Existing Home
Sales 30 minutes into the trading day. The Vix dropped to
its second lowest intraday level in the past 17 months on
Monday. Part of that is due to expected quiet pre holiday
trading, however a reversal by the Vix would give a number
of short term sell signals. What that means is that if there
is another rally from up here, it must stick and not reverse
as it has been doing lately. If that should occur, then
maybe the market makes its breakout to the downside.

On Tuesday, in order to avoid more downside, the ES needs to
get over the initial resistance and hold. Aside from that, a
drop towards the 1103.50-1102.50 that reverses could set up
a buying opportunity. If the market sells off and cannot
hold that area, then the 1099.00-1098.25 area will need to
hold and bring in buying, otherwise the market could be in
for a bad day.
