actio-et-reactio: for every action there is a reaction. In the background is a sketch by Leonardo da Vinci-teeter-totter- a symbol of how tenuous is the balance between extremes

Balance is but a brief transition between extremes.

Near Term Support and Resistance

Regarding the COMP and NDX chart showing Median Lines off prior gaps, I wrote yesterday: Looks like the cat got into a ball of yarn. However, looking closer, what I've done is create pitchforks off prior gaps. They all meet at ~1900 [COMPX; 1530 NDX] as that is the midpoint of the 2nd top and the recent bottom. That price jumped that spot on Friday shows the strength of the move. Even so, take a look at the 60m chart lower down, which indicates the move may be capped (for a pullback? for a reversal?). Question is, "when"? I vote for Monday, based on the 60m NDX chart discussion lower down.

We got a bit of both today, an early morning pullback with a midday recovery, leaving us pretty much in place, which qualifies as "consolidation". Price is holding above the 50% point of various hi-lo moves, which lends strength. A close above 1573 opens the door to 1591-1615. Closing below 1532-1536 opens up the possibility of more than a pullback.

moon phases
 

At last, over the rim
of the waiting earth
the moon lifted with
slow majesty
till it swung clear of the horizon and rode off,
free of moorings

The Wind in the Willows
