With Wednesday’s one day reversal, this market is beginning to show resilience. The GMI is back to 3 (of 6). Time to look for some emerging leaders.

I like the way FB is behaving. It bounced on Wednesday. Also, any stock that can maintain its RWB up-trend during the past few months of market weakness merits attention. Note the stock closed Wednesday above all of its 12 moving averages. The gray dotted line shows each weekly close.

2nd day of new $QQQ short term up-trend

I do not trust a new QQQ short term up-trend until it lasts 5 days. The GMI remains on a Sell signal. The daily 10.4 stochastics for the QQQ and SPY are very over-bought and beginning to turn down. I remain mainly in cash. Here is the daily chart of the SPY (S&P500 ETF). Will it hold the 30 day average (red line)?

New $QQQ short term up-trend but GMI remains on a Sell

While the longer term trend for the QQQ remains down with the GMI on a Sell signal, the short term trend has just turned up, after completing 33 days of a short term down-trend. The QQQ is rebounding from the January decline and it remains to be seen whether this rebound will fail and the down-trend resume. This weekly chart of the QQQ clearly shows the rebound is in its third week. I think the QQQ has severe resistance around the 105 level. Note the 30 week average (red line) is still declining.

The QQQ daily stochastic is overbought at 90, and the QQQ is approaching its upper daily 15.2 Bollinger Band, around 105.40. This rally may only have a few days or % more to go. And the SPY remains in an ominous BWR down-trend.
