SPX S&P 500 2-Hour Chart; Overbot; Rising Wedge; Negative Divergence; Upper Band Violation; Stock Market Top At Hand
For the 2-hour chart, Stockcharts prints a candlestick at 9:30 AM EST for the open, then 10 AM, then noon, then 2 PM then 4 PM EST so five candlesticks each day. The 10 AM candlestick begins printing so it is a good time to see how the chart is progressing. The bulls continue last week's upside orgy and are not worried in the least. Every day is happy without worry.
The SPX keeps exhibiting topping behavior on the hourly and daily charts but is saved by the Fed, or fiscal stimulus, or happy vaccine talk. You can see the neggie d (red lines) plain as day, rising wedge, overbot conditions and upper band violation. This is the top. Today should be interesting. Strap yourself in and place that helmet on your head. Happy talk is the only thing that can save it. This information is for educational and entertainment purposes only.
