Markets Rally on Positive Earnings and Election Numbers
The S&P 500 closed sharply higher on Tuesday and above the 10 day moving average crossing at 1138.41. The high range close sets the stage for a steady to higher opening on Wednesday. Stochastics and the RSI are neutral to bearish signaling that sideways to lower prices are possible near term.
Closes below the 20 day moving average crossing at 1127.38 are needed to confirm that a short term top has been posted. If March resumes this winter's rally, the 62% retracement level of the 2007-2008 decline crossing at 1155.15 is the next upside target.
First resistance is last Monday'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 20 day moving average crossing at 1127.37
Second support is today's low crossing at 1126.40

The NASDAQ 100 closed sharply higher on Tuesday and the high range close sets the stage for a steady to higher opening on Wednesday. Stochastics and the RSI remain bearish despite today's rally signaling that sideways to lower prices are possible near term.

First resistance is last Monday's high crossing at 1900.00
