***** Technical Analysis (Dec. 17)****
The daily stochastics and Summation Indexes have weakened to neutral to slightly negative. The daily stochastics are overbought while the weeklies are not overbought.
The overall market reached oversold conditions over a month and half ago and have since turned up, and are started to get momentum to the upside, and now have stalled.
Usually solid bottoms are marked by extremely oversold levels on intermediate term technical indicators but not always.
They had reached moderately oversold conditions but not extremely so.
The recent uptrend has taken us to moderately overbought levels but not extremely so. Bulls need to see a resumption of the uptrend within the next couple of days, or the majority of short-intermediate term indicators will turn negative.
