That's interesting, the 13 EMA certainly is acting as a magnet/resistance here.
TA is open to so much interpretation. The chicken/egg cause-effect aspect: What I see on the recent daily SPX charts is traders buying these hard thrusts down- then another wave of bad economic/earnings news driving another round of selling until the spike down comes and then...

It is possible a rough and sloppy bottom is forming here, but if the breakdown comes, there won't be much doubt. The volume of forced margin and desperation selling will put an exclamation point on it.

I enjoy the different charting methods here. Lots of good ideas.

Do you use the 13ema for individual stocks as well?
I've found it to be the best indicator for the ST trading that I do.
Unfortunately, there haven't been many that have broken through the resistance lately, but those that have moved drastically lower than the 13ema are the next best thing.
MIC is a good example of what I'm talking about.
