GST, try a little longer-term chart for perspective. Yes, the 200-day looks like resistance at the moment, but the index is above the 50-day (which is rising) and moving sideways in a tightening range as the two averages converge.

Sure, it could fail and resume the longer-term (year and a quarter) downtrend, but a cross above the 200-day would, at least, represent a breakout good for a 10%+ move (to May highs at least and possibly to levels of 12 months ago). It may also represent a resumption of the VERY long-term trend of rising stock prices seen in this chart:

Which way will it go? Ah! If only I knew for sure. ;-)
