The ES opened higher on Wednesday, but the move reversed
from just over the Tuesday high and from 1053.25 the ES
dropped 5.50 points to a 1047.75 low. That was at the 60ema
on the 5 minute chart and the ES reversed and bounced to
1053.25 again. After a pullback to 1050.00 was reversed, the
ES broke and held that 1053.50 updated support and ran up to
1060.50. Another small pullback held at 1058.50, and then
the market headed higher again. After reaching 1063.50 on
the ES, there was a small pullback and then the next pop was
rejected at 1063.75. The ES dropped 4 points to 1059.75, and
quickly turned back up at 3 pm. The move took the ES to a
new high at 1064.00 at the close.

Over the last 9 days the SP500 rallied 64 points on a
closing basis. At that pace the SP500 would reach 1100 in
the next 4 days. Given the amount of energy it took to get
this far, it would be very surprising if that occurs. The
market is due for a pullback soon, and if it pulls back too
far it could break an almost parabolic wedge pattern on the
daily chart. In addition to that, the breadth on the NYSE
has been positive for 9 straight days, which is something
that is rare. Most of the internal oscillators have also
made huge moves. For example, the McClellan Oscillator went
from extreme oversold at -230 on September 2nd to a +211 at
the Wednesday close.

There has been great momentum behind this move, so there
might be more to go on the upside before a pullback begins.
The market has been making early lows, then turning back up
and making highs late in the day. If the market does the
opposite on Thursday, and an early rally is reversed in the
first 40 minutes of trading, then things could be changing.
However, as long as the 1058.50-1058.00 area on the ES is
defended on a pullback, then the bulls are still in control.
The way the market is acting, the ES shouldn't even get down
there if the market is still strong. Beware though that if
early strength reverses, and then that 1058.50-1058.00 zone
is broken, then the trends will roll over and shorting the
bounces would then be the better odds trade. The NQ might be
a better short as it weakened late in the day while the ES
held up.
