Market Action

Last week we pulled in sharply down to the 50sma. On Friday we had another weak open but reversed around 12pm ET and closed strongly with the indexes and many names closing near highs. From recent highs we were down close to 6% to Friday’s low. We are below the 10 and 21 ema what what will be key is if we get follow through higher this week or reverse lower. Net new highs/lows have been negative for the first time consistently since the start of the April correction.

QQQ
Strong upside reversal friday. Below the key 21ema
IWM
Strong Oops reversal friday but below the MAs

Additional Thoughts

The expectation is follow through higher early next week. Friday’s lows are key levels to trade against. Seeing lots of recent earnings gappers setting up, how those act next week will be a great tell for the risk appetite.
