R.B.I. Trader's Update

4 / 19 / 2009

(Published Since 1996)

Dateline: 5:10 pm eastern time, 4/19/2009

The market had another good week, as the drops were reversed
and buying came in to drive prices higher.On Friday the ES
opened higher and then sold off, but per normal of late, the
market turned back up about 20 minutes into trading. The
market managed to rally in the afternoon, getting up to 872
on the ES and 875.63 on the SP500 cash before pulling back
into the close.

A quick note about this week. We have a Trading Camp this
week, therefore there will be fewer intraday updates Monday
thru Thursday due to the trading camp. However, will do my
best to keep you updated in the Instant Message room at the
least.

The market ended the week on a strong note, but did back
away from the old double top at the 875.01-877.86 zone.
Lately the weakness has occurred in the morning, and then
the market gets footing and rallies. When that action stops,
the market will get a bit shaken up.

The market has been moving higher and the trends and
momentum favor the bulls. However, there should be a decent
pullback coming soon. The daily indicators, after 3 straight
days of rally, have stretched into very overbought
territory. In addition, the market reacted to that
resistance up at the 1/28-2/09 highs on SP500 Cash. Everyone
who bought just before the drop to 667 is almost back to
break-even, so there should be some difficulty up here. If
not, and the Friday highs are broken and not quickly
reversed, then the ES could head towards the 880 area and
the Dow to the 8200 area to see how the market reacts to
those round numbers. However, if there is a selloff, then
the Friday low areas would need to hold to avoid trouble. If
there is a close under the 856 level on the ES, it could be
the beginning of a topping process.
