Market Action

QQQ – put in a positive expectation breaker as we gapped up after the poor close yesterday. However we faded some from highs so we will have to see what friday brings.

Short Term Expectation is higher/consolidation. We are above the moving averages. We could trade sideways for a week near the horizontal pivot and that would be normal action.

Bulls would want to see continuation higher and a strong close to the week.
Bears want to see a reversal down invalidating the action today

Basically how we close this week will be important information, It will show how the largest institutions have factored in the new news about the macro environment and altered how risk averse they should be.

IWM – similar move but inside day, better close.
