Good Thursday morning!! 




New all time highs again as the rocket ship market has now made it's 56th record so far this year! Now this is not unique as there have been other bull markets in the past, but just to put things in perspective, only 5 times since 1929 has there been more than 50 record setting days in any given year. Quite impressive!



As we have been saying for some time, the trend continues to be higher but stay alert for a strong liquidation break as this could come at any time. No one knows for sure when this will happen so just stay alert and keep an eye on the key levels for breaks lower! Reason is because any bull or bear market has to start somewhere, and watching key levels day by day will give you the heads up that things might be changing. The call is still bullish but the key levels and targets below will give you the confidence to either stay long or sell and look to go short.




For today, as you can see in the target levels and profile pic below, futures are very balanced and in a relatively tight range. We are inside of prior day but any loss of 6090 then 6087 could see more traders start rushing to the exits! No one wants to the be the person left standing when the musical chairs stops so we are walking on eggshells now at this point in time! Again I am NOT saying I know for sure today is the day for lower, but the more we keep floating higher and higher, the greater the odds traders and investors start booking profits.



Now that being said, if 6090-6087 never gets taken out, then the market could just sit and spin up here and may even move towards upper targets to new all time highs again! Why sell when it feels so good to stay long and just keep watching price go higher and higher?!?! lol Futures are trading @ 6096 at the time of this writing.





VPOC Update: Yes because of the large gap higher yesterday, price never got back down to the POC @ 6062.50 so we have added a new VPOC there so we now have 30 below current price. A new record.
