A TECHNICAL GUIDE FOR
DAY TRADING THE S & P
S & P
- For Monday
10-14-02 : NOTE: After
each support and resistance listed will designate a value -
(very major) holds the highest importance, then (major), (very
significant), and (significant) is of the least value. Very
aggressive trades - are trades that are against
the trend or a high dollar risk when wide stops are used. "The
Golden Rule" - Do
not use a buy stop inside a sell area or a sell stop inside
a buy area. The word NEAR can
be 1/2 to 1 point from a price listed in any trade to enter or
complete a trade.
Special
instructions for using stops - All
stops listed are for the day session only. Where stops
ARE NOT mentioned, they should be placed below the
second support area listed or above the second
resistance area listed, or 22 points from the (trade entry
point), whichever is the lesser amount. NOTE: The
first support area becomes the resistance after the
market trades through the second support area
listed. The first resistance area becomes the support
after the market trades through the second
resistance area listed.
Resistance:
For the Dec. contract -
839, 839.50 and
840 peaks also 840, 840.50 and 841 newly developed day channels
also 842 and 842.50 minor channels (very

Support: For
the Dec. contract -
831 and 830.50 base area also 830
intra-day channel (major area) / 828
intra-day channel also 826 and 825 base (very

area) / 802.50 day gap and 799.10
GBX bottom (very major area)
/ 793.50 rev. peak (major).
Comments:
The rally and close
on Friday is considered a bullish key reversal because the
market made lower lows for the week and settled above the
last two weeks closes. This bullish move from last week can
possibly bring higher prices but the market faces very major
resistance at 839 - 842 area and again at 852 - 857 area and also
at 862.30 that can prevent significant rallies to develop until a
solid base formation is seen. The overbought condition can
stimulate retracements to the down side with whiplashing to both
sides of the 862 - 802 wide neutral range before a worthy support
can develop. NOTE: A
trade above 862.30 area will be considered a breakout for prices
to challenge the 886 - 891 area but technically, only a trade
above 940 will confirm a solid reversal of the major trend to the
upside. A trade today below the 828 - 825 area is slightly
bearish and a trade below 815 can bring prices down to the 802 gap
area and possibly challenge the 793.50 support. Only a trade
below 786 can bring any solid bearishness back to the chart.
Remain defensive inside the 862 - 802 wide trading range.
Day trades:
For the Dec. contract -
Aggressive traders can buy
dips near 830 - 828 area and if possible near 826 for obj. near
835 and possibly near 839. (Use a sell stop and rev. short
at 822).
Aggressive traders sell
rallies near 839 - 842 area for obj. near 835 - 833.50 area.
(Use a buy stop and rev. long at 844.20)

obj. near 819 - 817 area.
Sell stop at 812 for
obj. near 810 - 807.50 and possibly near 805.80 area.
Aggressive traders can attempt
long positions near 805 - 802 area for obj. near 812 -
815 area. (Use a protective sell stop at 796. Do not

10-15-02 : NOTE: After
each support and resistance listed will designate a
value - (very major) holds the highest importance, then
(major), (very significant), and (significant) is of the
least value. Very
aggressive trades - are trades that are
against the trend or a high dollar risk when wide stops
are used. "The
Golden Rule" - Do
not use a buy stop inside a sell area or a sell
stop inside a buy area. The word NEAR can
be 1/2 to 1 point from a price listed in any trade to

Special
instructions for using stops - All
stops listed are for the day session only. Where
stops ARE NOT mentioned, they should be placed below
the second support area listed or above

the (trade entry point), whichever is the

Resistance:
For the Dec. contract -

805.80 weekly close (major area) / 802.50
day gap and 799.10 GBX bottom (very
major area) / 793 rev. peak (major).
Comments:
The
whiplashing action on Monday came to no surprise
and managed to develop a significant base formation that
can stimulate rallies. A trade above 847 is bullish but
a trade above 862.30 - 863.80 area will be considered a
breakout above the first weekly channel and can bring
prices up to challenge the 872 and 881 weekly channels.
The 881 channel can prove to be significant enough to hold
back further rallies for a while. A trade below
840.20 - 837.50 area is slightly bearish but a trade below
827.60 - 825 area can bring prices down to challenge the
802.50 gap area, which can be considered a solid support
and a good buying area.
Day
trades: For the Dec. contract -
If
the market opens above 862 or trades above at anytime
during the day - Aggressive traders can sell
rallies near 869 - 872 area for obj. near 863 and
possibly near 860. (Use a buy stop and rev. long at
875).
If
the market opens above 857 but below 862 -
Aggressive traders can sell rallies near 862 -
863 area for obj. near 857 and possibly near 854 area.
(Use a protective buy stop at 866. Do not rev.
long).
If the market opens
above 857 traders can use a sell stop at 852 to
enter into a short position for obj. near 847 and possibly
near 845. (Use a protective buy stop at 866.
Do not rev. long).
Aggressive traders can
buy dips near 840.50 - 838 area for obj. near 844
and possibly near 846. (Use a protective sell stop
at 833. Do not rev. short).

attempt long positions near 828 - 826 area, if it
gets there, for obj. near 835 and possibly near 838 area.

Comments:
The rally on Tuesday brought prices up to the
very major resistance at 881 - 884 area,
which can possibly hold back rallies for a
while. A trade above 884 can bring prices
up to challenge the 991.20 - 996 resistance
area. A trade above 996.70 will be
considered a breakout for higher prices to
follow. A trade today below 865 is
slightly bearish and can bring prices down near
the 857 area and challenge the 852.80 area
and possibly near the 845 - 841.50 gap area.
A trade below 838.50 - 835 area is bearish and
can possibly bring prices down to challenge the
815 - 802.50 gap area. Remain defensive.
Retracements to the down side can develop as
easily as rallies inside the wide trading range
between 896 - 845 area.

Comments:
After the
sell-off and gap down on Wednesday from the major
resistance, the market managed to hold the first major
support which will prove to be critical in today's
session. A trade below 858 - 855.70 area can bring
prices down to challenge the 845 - 841.60 gap area but
only a trade below 832.50 and 825.30 areas will fail the
major support and can bring the downtrend back into play.
A trade today above 880 - 884 area is bullish and can
bring prices up near the 891.20 and 896.70 areas, which
can prove to be significant enough resistance to hold back
rallies for a while. A trade above 896.70 will be
considered a breakout for higher prices to follow.
The market still faces a wide trading range between 896.70
and 841.60. Remain very defensive until the
whiplashing neutrality is out of the chart and a
solid direction can be established.
Day trades:
For the Dec. contract -
If
the market opens below 880 - Aggressive traders can
sell rallies near 880 - 882 area for obj. near
875 and possibly near 870.50 area. (Use a buy stop
and rev. long at 887.70).
If
the market opens above 884 - Aggressive
traders can attempt short positions near 890 -
891 area and again if possible near 896 for obj. near 885

Comments:
The
whiplashing action on Thursday at the major resistance
area can prove to be a signal of a temporary top
formation for possible retracements to the downside.
A trade below 867 today is slightly bearish but a
trade below the 856.80 - 854.50 area can bring prices
down to challenge the 845 - 841.60 gap area. A
trade today above 891.20 - 893 area is bullish and a
trade above 896.70 will be considered a breakout for
higher prices to follow. The 893 - 896.70
resistance can prove to be significant
enough to hold back rallies for a while.
Remain defensive inside the 893 - 867 neutral area.
The whiplashing action can continue until a breakout
is seen to either side of the neutral area.

DAY TRADING THE S & P
S & P
- For Monday
10-21-02 : NOTE: After
each support and resistance listed will designate a value -
(very major) holds the highest importance, then (major), (very
significant), and (significant) is of the least value. Very
aggressive trades - are trades that are against
the trend or a high dollar risk when wide stops are used. "The
Golden Rule" - Do
not use a buy stop inside a sell area or a sell stop inside
a buy area. The word NEAR can
be 1/2 to 1 point from a price listed in any trade to enter or
complete a trade.
Special
instructions for using stops - All
stops listed are for the day session only. Where stops
ARE NOT mentioned, they should be placed below the
second support area listed or above the second
resistance area listed, or 22 points from the (trade entry
point), whichever is the lesser amount. NOTE: The
first support area becomes the resistance after the
market trades through the second support area
listed. The first resistance area becomes the support
after the market trades through the second

For the Dec. contract -
884 intra-day channel also 884.50 and
885 peaks (major area) / 887.50

Comments:
On Friday, the
market remained inside the neutral trading range.
Technically, it has been building a possible top
formation, which can stimulate selling for retracements to lower
prices. A trade below 881.80 and 875.60 today is slightly
bearish but a trade below 870.50 can prove to be a failing signal
that can bring prices down near the 855.70 bottom and possibly
challenge the 845 - 841.60 gap area. The resistance at the
888 weekly channel can prove to be significant enough to hold back
rallies for a while. A trade above 888 and 891.20 this week
will be considered a breakout for higher prices to follow. Also
a trade above
935 will reverse the major trend to the upside. Remain
defensive inside the neutral range between 891 and 870. A
trade above or below this area can prove to point a direction.
Day trades:
For the Dec. contract -
Aggressive traders can sell rallies near 883 -
884 area for obj. near 877.50 and possibly near 876 - 875.60
area. NOTE: If
rallies continue before this trade is complete, then follow the
next aggressive trade and exit both short positions together at
the obj. or stop listed in that trade.
Aggressive traders can sell rallies near 887 -
888 area and if possible near 891 for obj. near 883 and possibly
near 882 - 880 area. (Use a buy stop and rev. long at
896).
Aggressive traders can attempt long positions
near 871.50 - 870.50 area for obj. near 875 - 878 area.
(Use a sell stop and rev. short at 869).
Buy stop at 896 for obj. near 901 - 903 area
and possibly near 905.
Buy stop at 909.70 for obj. near 913 - 916 area
and possibly near 920.

Comments:
The rally on
Monday brought prices up to a very major resistance, which can
possibly stimulate some selling for some retracements to lower
prices. A trade above 901.80 can challenge the 905.50 to
906.30 gap area and possibly up near the 916 - 921 major
resistance. A trade above 921 is bullish and can bring
prices up near the 927 - 935 resistance. A trade above
935 will be considered a major breakout that can prove to
reverse the major trend to the upside. A trade today
below 887.50 is slightly bearish and can bring prices down to
challenge the 875.30 - 872.50 support area. A trade
below 875.30 - 872.50 area will fail a very major support that
can possibly bring prices down to challenge the 855.70 bottom
and possibly near the 845 - 841.60 gap area. Remain
defensive inside the 901 - 887.50 neutral area, which can
stimulate whiplashing to both sides before a solid direction
is seen.
Day trades:
For the Dec. contract -
Aggressive traders can buy dips near 889.50
- 887.50 area for obj. near 895 - 897 area. (Use a
sell stop and rev. short at 884.50).
Aggressive traders can attempt short positions
near 895 - 897 area and if possible near 899 - 900
area for obj. near 893 and possibly near 891 area.
(Use a buy stop and rev. long at 909.30) (Conservative
traders can use a protective buy stop at 903.20. Do
not rev. long).

Comments:
On Tuesday,
the whiplashing action to both sides of the neutral range
came to no surprise, leaving the chart again in a neutral
range between 899 to 880, which can still stimulate
whiplashing to both sides until a direction can be
established. A trade above 899 and 901.80 area can
bring prices up to fill the 906.30 day gap and possibly as
high as 921. A trade above 921 can bring prices up
to challenge the 927 weekly top and possibly the 935
weekly major channel. A trade above 935 will be
considered a breakout that can prove to reverse the major
trend to the upside. A trade today below 880.20 can
prove to be the beginning of a major retracement to the
downside for prices to reach down to the 855.70 bottom
area and possibly close the 841.60 gap area. Remain
defensive inside this neutral area between 899 and 880
until a breakout is seen to either side.

Comments:
The
market on Wednesday remained inside the neutral range
whiplashing to both sides as expected. The close
being at the high end of the range can possibly
stimulate some rallies but still faces some major
resistance areas. A trade above the 901.80 top can
bring prices up near the 906.30 gap area and
possibly up to the 916 - 921 major resistance, which can
prove to hold back rallies for a while. A trade
above 921 is bullish, that can bring prices up to
challenge the 927 weekly top and possibly near the 935
weekly channel. A trade above 935 will be
considered a breakout that can possibly change the
major trend to the upside. A trade today below
884.70 - 883 is slightly bearish but a trade below
876.50 - 875.50 area can possibly bring prices down to
challenge the 855.70 bottom and 841.60 gap area. Continue
to remain defensive inside the 901.80 - 883 neutral
area. Prices can still swing to both sides before
proving a direction.

A TECHNICAL GUIDE FOR DAY
TRADING THE S & P
S & P -
For Friday
10-25-02 : NOTE: After
each support and resistance listed will designate a value - (very
major) holds the highest importance, then (major), (very
significant), and (significant) is of the least value. Very
aggressive trades - are trades that are against
the trend or a high dollar risk when wide stops are used. "The
Golden Rule" - Do
not use a buy stop inside a sell area or a sell stop inside a buy
area. The word NEAR can
be 1/2 to 1 point from a price listed in any trade to enter or
complete a trade.
Special
instructions for using stops - All
stops listed are for the day session only. Where stops ARE
NOT mentioned, they should be placed below the second
support area listed or above the second resistance
area listed, or 22 points from the (trade entry point),
whichever is the lesser amount. NOTE: The
first support area becomes the resistance after the
market trades through the second support area
listed. The first resistance area becomes the support
after the market trades through the second resistance area
listed.
Resistance: For
the Dec. contract -
882 intra-day channel and gap also
883.50 peak (major area) / 885 and 885.50 peaks (major
area) / 890.50 intra-day channel (major) /
893 and 894.80 peaks also 894 intra-day channel (major area)
/ 898.50 and 900.50 peaks (major area) / 902.30
peak and 903.60 newly developed day channel (very

905.50 day top to 906.30 day gap (very
major) / 916 GBX weekly top
and 916.40 monthly closing price also 917 day channel (very
major area) / 921 minor weekly
channel (very major)
/ 925.50 minor day channel and 927 weekly top
(very major area) / 935
major weekly channel (very

Support: For
the Dec. contract -
880 minor day channel (major)
/ 878 minor day channel and 877.50 day bottom
(very major area) / 873
and 872.50 day bottoms (very
major area) / 865.50 day bottom to 862.30 day gap (major

/ 836.20 is the 50% retracement area also 835
and 832.50 intra-day base area (very
major area) / 827.60 weekly
bottom (very major area).
Comments:
The sell-off on
Thursday from the major resistance proves the significance of the
area leaving the chart in neutral to slightly bearish condition.
A trade today below the 873 - 872.50 bottom areas is bearish and can
bring prices down to challenge the 862.30 gap and possibly near the
855.70 bottom. A trade below 855.70 can bring prices down near
the 841.60 gap area and the 836.20 (50% retracement area). A
trade today above 890.50 - 894 area is slightly bullish but only a
trade above 898.50 and 903.60 area can bring any solid
bullishness back to the chart. Remain defensive inside the
890.50 - 873 neutral area. The market can still prove to swing
to both sides until a solid direction is established.
Day trades:
For the Dec. contract -
Aggressive traders can sell
rallies near 882 - 883 area and if possible near 885 for obj. near
878.50 - 877.50 area. (Use a protective buy stop at 887.70.

Comments:
The rally on Friday
from the support area put the chart at the high end of the neutral
area and also managed to close the end of the week above the last
seven weeks closing prices, leaving the chart in neutral to
bullish condition. The market faces major resistance at 915
and 927 on the weekly chart. A trade this week above 927
will be considered a breakout that can challenge the 966 major
weekly top area and possibly up near 990 and 1020 areas. A
trade below 885 - 884 area is bearish but a trade below 876.20 and
872.50 bottom areas can bring prices down to challenge the
855.70 area and possibly near the 841.60 gap area. Continue
to remain defensive inside the 915 - 885 neutral trading area
until a breakout is seen to either side.
Day trades:

Comments:
On Monday,
the market sold-off again from the upper end of the
neutral area proving the significance of this area.
For Tuesday, the neutral trading range is between 900.30 and
882. A trade above 907.50 - 909.50 area will challenge
the major resistance at 915 - 916 area, which can possibly
hold back rallies for a while. A trade above 927 will
be considered a breakout for higher prices to follow.
A trade today below 882 - 879.40 area is bearish and a trade
below 873 - 872.50 area will confirm lower prices to follow
possibly challenging the 855.70 - 845 gap area. Remain
defensive inside this neutral area that has lasted for six
day. Neutral conditions can possibly remain the same
for a few more trading sessions before a solid breakout is
seen.

Comments:
The sell-off on Tuesday brought
prices down to a support area stimulating
rallies from the 866 support leaving
the chart to close in a neutral condition
for the sixth day. Whiplashing to
both sides of the seventh day's neutral

a solid direction. Remain defensive.

The market opened in the sell
area near 884 where short positions were taken at 883.
The sell off down to 880.10 meets the obj. and completes
the trade. The double bottom at 880 on the intra-day
chart can prove to be support to bring prices higher.
It is recommended not to repeat the first trade to sell at
884 - 887 area due to the high risk at this time.

GUIDE FOR DAY TRADING THE S & P
S
& P - For Thursday
10-31-02 : NOTE: After
each support and resistance listed will designate
a value - (very major) holds the highest
importance, then (major), (very significant), and
(significant) is of the least value. Very
aggressive trades - are trades
that are against the trend or a high dollar risk
when wide stops are used. "The
Golden Rule" - Do
not use a buy stop inside a sell area or a
sell stop inside a buy area. The word NEAR can
be 1/2 to 1 point from a price listed in any trade
to enter or complete a trade.
Special
instructions for using stops - All
stops listed are for the day session only.
Where stops ARE NOT mentioned, they should be
placed below the second support area
listed or above the second
resistance area listed, or 22 points from the (trade
entry point), whichever is the lesser
amount. NOTE: The
first support area becomes the resistance
after the market trades through the second
support area listed. The first
resistance area becomes the support after
the market trades through the second

Comments:
Wednesday's
trading session remained inside the neutral range as
expected. The whiplashing action between the 904 and
873 neutral range can continue until a solid breakout is
seen to either side. A trade above 904 - 906 can
bring prices up to challenge the 915 area and possibly
near 927 but only a trade above 927 will be considered a
breakout for higher prices to follow. A trade today
below 873 is bearish but a trade below 865 can bring
prices down to challenge the 855.70 bottom and possibly
near 845 - 841.60 gap area. NOTE:
The 838.50 area is a
50% retracement between the high and low for this entire
move. Remain defensive inside the neutral area until
a breakout is seen to either side.
Day trades:
For the Dec. contract -

Comments:
Thursday's
trading range, once again, remained inside the neutral
range as expected. The neutral range between 903 and
876.50 can continue to stimulate whiplashing to both sides
until a breakout is seen to either side. A trade
above 895.50 is slightly bullish but a trade above 903 -
905 area can challenge the 915 and 927 major resistance
areas. A trade below 876.50 today is slightly
bearish but a trade below 869.50 and 866 area can bring
prices down to challenge the 855.70 bottom and possibly
near the 845 - 841.60 gap area. NOTE:
The 838.50 area is a
50% retracement between the 909.40 top and 767.50 bottom,

Comments:
The rally on Friday
remained inside the neutral range for the ninth day in a row.
It managed to close the end of the week exactly unchanged from
last week leaving the chart again totally neutral. A trade
above 920 and 927 this week will be considered a breakout for
prices to challenge the 966 top area and possibly higher. A
trade this week below 885 can challenge last weeks low at 866 and
possibly trade down near the 845 - 841.60 gap area. Remain
defensive inside the 920 - 885 neutral trading range until a
breakout is seen to either side.

rallies near 911 - 913 for obj. near 904 - 903 area. (Use a

Comments:

resistance proved the significance of the area. The
market remains inside the neutral area between 923.50 and 885
and can still trade to both sides without showing a direction.
A trade above 927 - 928.50 area will be considered a breakout
for higher prices. A trade below 898.50 is slightly
bearish but a trade below 885 - 881.50 area can bring prices
down to challenge the 866 and 855.70 bottom areas and possibly
near the 841.60 gap. Remain defensive inside this wide
neutral area.

Comments:
The trading range on Tuesday remained narrow
but managed to close up on the day from the first support area,
which leaves the chart in slightly bullish condition for
possible rallies. The market faces major resistance at the
922 area and 927. A trade above 927 will be considered a
breakout for prices to challenge the 966 major top area. A
trade below 898.50 is slightly bearish but only a trade below
885 can bring any bearishness back to the chart. Remain
defensive inside the 922 - 898 neutral range. The
market can still whiplash to both sides before proving a
direction.
Day trades:
For the Dec. contract -
Aggressive traders can sell rallies near 919 -
922 area and if possible near 925 for obj. near 914 - 912.50
area. (Use a buy stop and rev. long at 930.70).
Aggressive traders can buy dips near 900 -
898.50 area for obj. near 904 - 905 area and possibly near 906.
(Use a sell stop and rev. short at 894.50).
Buy stop at 930.70 for obj. near 935 - 936.90
gap area and possibly near 939.
Buy stop at 943.70 for obj. near 947 and
possibly near 949.
Sell stop at 911.70 for obj. near 909.70 and
possibly near 908. NOTE:
If this sell stop at
911.70 fails to materialize the obj. immediately after the stop
is hit (approx. 5 min.), then exit the trade at 912 - 911 area
and scratch the trade. The 912.50 is a significant support
level and should be treated as such.
Sell stop at 903 for obj. near 900 - 898.50
area.
Sell stop at 894.50 for obj. near 892.50 -
890.50 area and possibly near 887.
Sell stop at 881.50 for obj. near 878 - 876
area.
Sell stop at 871 for obj. near 867 - 865 and
possibly near 862.30 gap area.

Comments:
The rally on Wednesday brought prices up to a
very critical resistance. A trade above the 927 - 928.50
area will be considered a breakout for higher prices and can
possibly challenge the 966 major top area. A trade today
below the 902 and 898.50 support areas is bearish and can bring
prices down to challenge the 885 major support. A trade
below 885 will be considered a technical failure for prices to
challenge the 876.50 - 874.50 area and possibly down to the
841.60 gap area. Remain defensive inside the neutral range
between 927 and 902. The market can still swing to both
sides before proving a direction.

Comments:
The sell-off on Thursday from the major
resistance proved the significance of the area but prices
managed to hold the major support area, remaining and trading
inside the whole entire neutral area. A trade below 897
can bring prices down to challenge the 885 major weekly
support. A trade below 885 will be considered a
technical failure for prices to challenge the 876.50 - 875.50
area and possibly as low as the 855.70 - 841.60 gap area.
A trade today above 914.20 - 917 is slightly bullish but a
trade above 927 will be considered a breakout for higher
prices to follow. Remain defensive inside the 914 - 899
neutral trading range. NOTE:
A settling price on
Friday above 904.50 is slightly bullish and a close below
904.50 is slightly bearish for next week.
Day trades:
For the Dec. contract -
Aggressive traders can sell rallies near 904

comes first to complete the trade. (Use a protective buy
stop at 910. Do not rev. long). (Use a sell stop

trade above 919 can reverse the momentum back to the upside. A

To all new subscribers - We received a phone
call concerning the long position taken today at 880 and if the trade was
still in effect. Long positions were taken at 880 and met the obj. when
the market hit the double top at 884.30. The trade was complete at
884.
It is important for all day traders to know
that profits are to be taken as close as possible to the
obj. listed. When a trade is repeated in the same day session it
does increase the trade's risk. There is a 20% less of a chance for
the same trade to materialize the second time and a 40% less of a chance
for it to materialize the third time. Not to say it can't happen but
it should only be taken by very aggressive traders paying close attention
to the intra-day chart.

Comments:
The sell-off on
Monday brought prices down to a very critical support area. A
trade below 876.50 - 873 area can bring prices down to challenge the
866 and 855.70 bottom areas and possibly near the 50% retracement
from the 926.50 top and 767.50 bottom, which is at 847. A
trade today above 897 is slightly bullish but only a trade above 919
can bring any solid bullishness back to the chart. Remain
defensive inside the neutral area between 894 - 876.50.

Comments:
The whiplashing
action on Tuesday proved both resistance and support in this area.
A trade today above 891 is slightly bullish and a trade above 897
can bring prices up to challenge the 919 major resistance. A
trade today below 878.40 is slightly bearish but a trade below 875
and also 873 can bring prices down to challenge the 866 - 862.30
gap area and possibly near the 50% retracement area, which is at
847. Remain defensive inside the 891 - 878.40 neutral range.

For the Dec. contract -
Aggressive traders can buy
dips near 879.50 - 878.50 area and if possible near 876 for obj.

Comments:
The
whiplashing action on Wednesday managed to close the market
slightly higher and also managed to develop a supportive
chart formation to stimulate rallies. A trade above

major resistance. A trade above 919 will be considered
a breakout for higher prices to follow. A trade below
881 - 878 area is slightly bearish but a trade below 874.50

Comments:
The rally on
Thursday from the support area developed as expected bringing
prices up near critical resistances. A trade above 909 -
910.50 area can bring prices up to challenge the 919 weekly
resistance, which can possibly put a lid on rallies for a
while. A trade above 919 will be considered a breakout
for higher prices to follow. A trade today below 892.80
is slightly bearish but only a trade below 879 can bring any
solid bearishness back to the chart. Remain defensive
inside the 909 - 892.80 trading range. NOTE:
A close on Friday above
912 will put bullish condition in the chart for next week.

The sell off down to 892.90 is close enough to the 892.50

can be considered in this area. Continue to use the

901.50 buy stop
was hit and met the obj. at 904 to complete the trade.
The rally up to
905 put traders into short positions. The sell-off down to
902.50 satisfies the obj. of 902 that completes the trade.
The market is not worth being short at this time because
there is too much strength shown from the support level.

GUIDE FOR DAY TRADING THE S & P
S
& P - For Wednesday
11-20-02 : NOTE: After
each support and resistance listed will designate a
value - (very major) holds the highest importance,
then (major), (very significant), and (significant)
is of the least value. Very
aggressive trades - are trades that
are against the trend or a high dollar risk when
wide stops are used. "The
Golden Rule" - Do
not use a buy stop inside a sell area or a sell
stop inside a buy area. The word NEAR can
be 1/2 to 1 point from a price listed in any trade
to enter or complete a trade.
Special
instructions for using stops - All
stops listed are for the day session only.
Where stops ARE NOT mentioned, they should be
placed below the second support area listed or
above the second resistance area listed, or
22 points from the (trade entry point),
whichever is the lesser amount. NOTE: The
first support area becomes the resistance
after the market trades through the second
support area listed. The first
resistance area becomes the support after the
market trades through the second
resistance area listed.

major area).
Comments:
Tuesday's session remained inside the neutral trading
range and technically not showing any solid
direction. A trade above 919 will be considered
a breakout for higher prices to follow. A trade
below 891.10 is bearish but a trade below 872.70 -
870.50 area will fail the major support and can bring
prices down to challenge the 862.30 gap and possibly
near the 50% retracement area of 847. Remain
defensive inside the 913.50 - 891.10 neutral trading
range.
Day
trades: For the Dec. contract -
Aggressive traders
can buy dips near 895 - 892 area and if
possible near 891.10 for obj. near 898 - 900 area and
possibly near 901. (Use a sell stop and rev.
short at 888).
Aggressive traders
can sell rallies near 917 - 919 area for obj.
near 910.50 and possibly near 908.50. (Use a buy stop
and rev. long at 922.20).

Comments:
The
rally from the major support area proved the
significance of the area as expected. The
market now faces the challenge of trading above the
927 major weekly double top area. A trade
above 927 will confirm a breakout above the major
resistance areas for prices to challenge the 936.90
gap and 966 major top areas. A trade
below 907.20 today is slightly bearish but only a
trade below 898 - 896 area can bring any solid
bearishness back to the chart. Remain
defensive inside the 927 - 907 trading range.
Day
trades: For the Dec. contract -
Aggressive
traders can buy dips near 916 - 914.50 area
for obj. near 919 and possibly near 923. (Use

Comments:
The rally on Thursday brought prices up to a
very critical resistance, which can possibly
hold back rallies. A trade above the
936.60 - 936.90 area will challenge the 941.20
weekly close and possibly near the 948 - 956
major area. The 956 resistance is
significant and can prove to hold back any
further rallies for a while. A trade today
below 925.50 - 925.20 area is slightly bearish
but a trade below 918.70 - 915.50 area can
possibly bring prices down to challenge the
902.50 - 900 area again, which can prove to be
supportive enough to stimulate rallies, if it
gets there. Remain defensive inside the
936 - 925.50 trading range.
Day
trades: For the Dec. contract -
Aggressive
traders can buy dips near 931 - 930.50
for obj. near 933.50 - 935 area. (Use a
protective sell stop at 928. Do not rev.
