The new trading week is off and stumbling. The SPX collapses to 2581-2584, the support level called out in the SPX S/R missive, then to 2578-2579 then bloop, down to the 2560-2569 landing zone. LOD is 2567.44. The SPX takes out the closing low of the year at 2581.00. The intraday low for this year is at 2533. The S&P 500 recovers.
The bulls are happy with the near-term set-up. Price prints a lower low and all the indicators are positively diverged. The falling wedge pattern is bullish. The stoch's are oversold and RSI at oversold levels agreeable to a bounce. Price has violated the lower band so the middle band at 2638 and dropping is on the table. This may be the start of the end-of-year rally into the Santa Claus rally from 12/26/18 through 1/3/19.
The positive divergence shows that all the indicators no longer have the juice to push price lower, instead, the indicators want price to bounce higher. A short-covering rally can add lots of further upside juice. Stocks are usually bullish into and through the Fed meetings. Stocks are usually bullish from a Tuesday low into a Wednesday high during OpEx. The month has been negative so the expectation would be for up days to finish the month.
