S&P 500: A gap down at the open yesterday saw continued selling that broke below Tuesdays low only to rally sharply off news the world is not coming to an end closing well above Wednesdays close suggesting further strength today. We have confluence today with the upper .382 and yesterdays close at 1315.25 above which we want to be buyers as long as support holds with yesterdays high of 1324.50 as a minimum profit target and Wednesdays high of 1334.25 as an ultimate target. That said, yesterdays price action was clearly led by short covering and it will take real buyers to maintain higher levels and if they do not emerge today then we are likely going lower. Momentum on the daily, weekly and monthly bars is still negative and the trend is down with yesterdays low of 1284.00 as a minimum profit target and 1272.50 and 1262.00 as ultimate targets. CPI at 8:30am ET will likely set the tone for the day.

S&P 500: A flat open led to a pullback and a rally that easily broke Tuesdays high and threatened to fill the gap at the 3/5 close and perhaps put positive momentum back on the weekly bars. Sellers had something else in mind and took the S&P down in the afternoon breaking well below the February low and closing poorly with resistance at the pivot suggesting lower prices today. We do not have confluence to work with today so if bulls are to come back in the market we need to be trading above yesterdays close of 1309.50 with yesterdays high of 1334.25 as a minimum profit target. A break below yesterdays low of 1308.00 and the short side is favored as long as trading with resistance against yesterdays close. A gap down at the open and we may see continued selling as that would make today a capitulation to negative momentum in conjunction with trend day with Mondays low of 1272.50 and the January low of 1262.00 as ultimate targets. Important economic announcements at 8:30 will likely help shape the day. The S&P e-mini contract rolls to the June contract today (ES M8). Be in the DATA chat room for the latest real time analysis.

S&P 500: A gap up at the open was faded to well below Mondays high before finding support and posting the largest gain in over 5 years. Today weakness at the open will likely be bought as long as support exists above the loose confluence of the pivot and the upper .214 with yesterdays high of 1324.25 as a minimum profit target and last weeks high of 1345.00 as an ultimate target. A gap up at the open is a short as long as trading below the open with a gap fill and negative momentum on the daily bars as a minimum profit target.

S&P 500: A flat open led to a break of last weeks low ultimately closing at a new March low. Today weakness is likely to continue as long as trading with resistance below the loose confluence of the pivot at 1281.25 and last weeks low of 1282.25 with yesterdays low of 1272.50 as a minimum profit target and the January low of 1262.00 as an ultimate target. A gap down at the open that is below yesterdays low is a buy as long as trading above the open with a gap fill and positive momentum on the daily bars as minimum profit targets.

S&P 500: A strong gap down on Friday at the open brought back buyers to easily fill the gap to the previous close but resistance after little more than 60 minutes of rally sent the S&P back thru Thursdays low and the low of the day. A late day rally found resistance at Thursdays low and closed just about where it opened. Today the short side remains favored as long as resistance exists below the confluence of the lower .214 and the pivot as highlighted above with Fridays low of 1282.25 as a minimum profit target and the January low of 1262.00 as an ultimate target. A gap down at the open that is well below Fridays low is a buy as long as trading above the open with a gap fill and positive momentum on the daily bars as minimum profit targets.
