Good Tuesday morning!! 



They're back!!!! You might not see them but they're there! Stalking and waiting in the woods to pounce. Let this be your warning.


You know when I said last week on Friday morning that I felt a short term top was in and being formed, I was correct but it turned out to be just a day too early. And I feel the only reason we didn't sell off Friday, as opposed to today, was the fact that the jobs report came in better than expected and that convinced more buyers to come in on Friday's session! Well the sell off in yesterday's price action to me was confirmation that this rally is getting long in the tooth and the ever patient bears are back on the hunt!! Again I am not claiming to know the exact minute when the pullback really starts but I am lightening up on longs and looking to get to the short side.




In the profile pic below, you can see we had a decent liquidation break yesterday, and unless buyers take it back over the Point of Control and Over Night high, and into yesterday's range, then the longs are evaporating and we are setting up for a much needed pullback! Again the bears are there but they are patient and when they strike it will be fierce!!



Please pay attention to the target levels and profile pic and they will help guide your trading today. The first key line in the sand today is the POC @ 6074.50 and we are already below that level. Taking out the poor low and over night low should then rotate down towards lower targets. Please note: The only other thing that might delay the selling is that the NQ futures are higher on the back of AAPL hitting new all time highs again in the pre-market so this may keep buyers in the fray. Time will tell. Economic data is light again today so it will all be about the sellers stepping up their game. Futures are trading @ 6067 at the time of this writing.





VPOC Update: YES! There was a new VPOC added yesterday but it was NOT below current price...it was added ABOVE @ 6098.25. First one above in a very long time. This is another factor that the sellers are starting to show up! We also took out 6062 below so we now have 1 above and 29 below current price.
