Good Monday morning!! 




New all time highs again Friday as the S&P basically hit 6100 and the NDX hit 21,626. Buyers are still very much in control and trend continues to be up, so as we've been saying for a few weeks now, don't fight the tape. There's an old saying that states: "The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent!" So basically the market can keep going up, or down, for much longer periods of time than you can ever imagine, and when you try to fight this, it usually ends up hurting you.




As you can see in the target levels and profile pic below, we are in a two day balance area (as identified by the yellow shaded areas) and until we break out one way or the other, expect chop and small ranges today! Again, longer term is up, however, we can go sideways and balance, or digest, recent moves. A pause in a trend does NOT mean a reversal! Please remember that! Now as the market keeps drifting and floating higher and higher each day, the market is subject to a liquidation break at any time, but no one knows for sure when this will happen. That's why we give you the key target levels each day!




The first key line in the sand today is the POC @ 6098.25. That is your initial tell whether buyers or sellers are winning. If the buyers get above that level then look for upper targets. If futures are between 6098.25 - 6090, then it is a stalemate and balance between buyers and sellers. If 6090 gets taken out to the downside, then look for lower targets! Economic data is light so it will all be about who takes the next step ahead...buyers or sellers! Futures are trading @ 6096 at the time of this writing.





VPOC Update: No new VPOC's added Friday so we still have 30 below current price.
