BRIEFING/OPINIONS: The markets took a small pullback last Friday on an Amazon earnings miss and renewed Covid variant fears. There were no major changes to our chart indicators. We do notice the Stochastics are still high/overbought, but have come down a bit. If the early futures for this morning's open continue higher we have a shot of getting near the record highs again on the S&P. The market can not keep going straight up, so from time to time we may get pullbacks or brief corrections. Technically & chart wise the market looks good. "Buy-the-Dip" is still in. SPY 425 is our strong support level, it could also be considered a stop level for some traders. * If you have any questions, opinions, or comments to add please do so! * IF wanting to gamble: Options trades on these ETFs will give you a way to place your bets. $TQQQ - $SQQQ - $SPXL - $SPXS. * Beware - levered ETFs are subject to decay and are not for long-term holding. * CHANGES: None.
