Comments:
The whiplashing action
sell-off on Friday remained inside the neutral area closing down near
a very critical support area. A trade below 970.90 is bearish for
prices to challenge the 965.80 channel support and the 963.30 monthly
gap. Below 962.20 will challenge near 950.50 - 948 area.
A trade today above 983.30 - 985.40 area is slightly bullish but only a
trade above 988 - 992.50 area can bring any significant bullishness back
to the chart. A trade above 1000.10 - 1001 will confirm the
uptrend is back into play. Remain defensive inside the first
neutral trading area between 978.50 - 970.90 area.

Comments:

pressure. A trade above 984.70 - 985 area is slightly
bullish and a trade above 992.50 can bring prices up to
challenge the 999.90 monthly channel. A trade
above 999.90 - 1001 area will be considered a breakout for
higher prices to develop. A trade today below
973.30 - 972 area is slightly bearish but only a trade below
962.70 and 960.50 can bring any solid bearishness back to the
chart. Remain defensive inside the 984.70 - 973.30

Comments:
The rally
on Wednesday was slightly out of line and overbought,
which brought prices up near the major resistance at
994.50 and 999.90 that can possibly stimulate some selling
pressure. A trade above 999.90 and 1001.50 will
challenge the 1003.70 and 1005.10 monthly channels and
possibly near the 1014.50 double top area. A trade
today below 982.20 - 979.50 is slightly bearish but only a
trade below 964.90 can bring any solid bearishness back to
the chart. Remain defensive inside the
994.50 - 979.50 trading range.

Comments:
Friday's trading range
remained inside the neutral area, closing down for the day but up for
the week leaving the chart neutral between the 999.90 monthly channel
resistance and the 969.70 to 966 weekly channel supports. A trade
today above 990.50 and 994.20 area is slightly bullish and can challenge
the 999.90 monthly channel. A trade above 999.90 and 1005 areas
will be considered a breakout for higher prices to develop. A
trade below 979.70 - 978.50 area is slightly bearish but only a
trade below 971.25 and 966 areas can bring any solid bearishness back to
the chart. Remain defensive inside today's neutral
trading area between 991 - 979.70.

Comments:
The rally on Monday
brought prices up near very major resistance areas that could
possibly stimulate some selling pressure. A trade above 1005
and 1006 can challenge the 1008.40 weekly channel and 1014.80 top
areas. A trade today below the 1000.60 and 995.70 areas is
slightly bearish but a trade below 992.50 - 989.10 channel can bring
prices down to challenge the 971.50 - 968.70 weekly channel areas.

Comments:

follow-through rally on Tuesday brought prices up to a very
significant resistance at 1008.40, which is the major weekly
channel. A trade above 1008.50 - 1010.50 will challenge

top can bring prices up to challenge the 1028.30 - 1035
resistance area. A trade today below 1002.50 -1000.50
area is slightly bearish but only a trade below 994 - 990.80
