R.B.I. Trader's Update

3 / 11 / 2010

(Published Since 1996)

...............................................

Dateline: 6:43 pm eastern time, 3/11/2010

The market opened lower on Thursday and then after the June
ES reached 1134.00 (we had support at 1134.50-1134.00) it
turned back up and rallied to 1141.50. That was rejected,
and a drop to 1136.75 followed. Another bounce to 1141.00
was reversed and the ES dropped to the 1138.00 updated
support. More buying came in at 2 pm and the ES rallied to
the 1146.00-1146.50 zone to close strong.

The ES broke out of a triangle/trading range and made a new
closing high for the year by 1 penny. The ES settled right
at a resistance area, so follow through holding will be key.
We get the retail sales before the open on Friday, and the
Michigan Sentiment report is released at 9:55 am. If the
number doesn't hurt the up-trends, we could get to the 1154
area on the SP500 cash before a turn back down. However, if
there is no follow through, and the initial support areas
are not held, then a decent sized drop should be underway.

Look for early strength to be sold on Friday, and then if
the initial support areas are held on a pullback, the rally
can continue. If the initial support areas are broken, and
there is not a quick reversal, then a sharp drop back down
to the 1134.50-1134.00 area from Thursday would need to
hold, and quickly turn back up. The SP500 cash has closed up
9 of the last 10 days, so if market drops that far and a
reversal back up doesn't happen fast, then the downside
could accelerate and finish the week on a bad note.
