The S&P 500 closed higher on Monday as it extended this winter's rally. Profit taking tempered early session gains and the mid range close sets the stage for a steady opening on Tuesday. Stochastics and the RSI are overbought but remain neutral to bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near term. If March extends this winter's rally, the 62% retracement level of the 2007-2008 decline crossing at 1155.15 is the next upside target. Closes below the 20 day moving average crossing at 1118.21 are needed to confirm that a short term top has been posted. First resistance is today's high crossing at 1147.90. Second resistance is the 62% retracement level of the 2007-2008 decline crossing at 1155.15. First support is the 10 day moving average crossing at 1129.16. Second support is the 20 day moving average crossing at 1118.21.
