I looked at your indicator (RSI) (heresy!) on that XMI chart and noticed it bounced off the rising support at the Dec. lows. Ominous.

Most of The Indices Are Between Their 50 Day SMA and Their 200 Day SMA

with this two SMA's converging.

It would seem that a break above the 200 SMA establishes them both as support while a break below the 50 SMA, resistance.

Since we are overbought on a daily basis it would seem that a pullback to the 50 SMA (today at SPX 903.95) followed by an assault on the 200 SMA (today at SPX 963.65) would make a lot of sense.

Of course this is both simple and makes sense which seems to be the strongest argument against it.

Thanks for that XMI chart, Allan. You note that in the wider time frames, bulls would say it's a bullish set up. I must admit, when I look at that chart, my amateur e-wave eyes do think that the down is corrective due to all that overlap. Is there a wave count you've got that says otherwise? (Mind you, I'm not fully sure what the count was leading into that top, so I'm not saying we can't sink a bunch more).

Two other random observations: there really have been four great short ops since the top (and a couple other okay ones) for really fast, hard down. Otherwise...not so great. Also, RSI is following that rising trendline that AJ noted...but is also not yet at a level that's led to any of the prior turns down. And if you make a channel on the RSI based on your bottom orange line...that, too, implies we've got some more up/chop heading our way. All food for thought for moi, at least
