THE CHARTS: (NOTE: Charts are a good guide, but when a tweet or news item can jerk the markets around, they mean a bit less.) BRIEFING: The market has a nice continuation rally on Thursday which resulted in new all-time highs for the Nasdaq, Russell, and S&P 500. On our charts the MACD and the Money Flow have both improved. The MACD is getting close to a positive cross over and the Money Flow has recovered to slightly above neutral. The Stochastics are starting to get a bit high again, but not an immediate threat.Chart wise, we are back into and continuing on in the previous uptrend. However, keep in mind the dip we had is why we continue to have "use caution" messages on here. Looking at the possibility of a large SPY 365 to 385 trading range. On the longer term 8-month chart, we remain inside the dominant longer term uptrend. ** - Repeating - How long can this uptrend continue? The possibility of a consolidation, sideways market, or pullback of some kind may happen at some point. But not necessarily. Positive momentum and easy money can keep driving us to new highs. Note: The Russell 2000 (small caps) are definitely leading the markets so far this year. Their positive uptrend is still intact.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: The MACD is heading up.The Money Flow has recovered back to just above neutral.

Or a wall of worry to climb as the saying goes. OPINION: Currently we are above the 20-day, 50-day and 200-day MAs. (Bullish).The MACD is headed upwards.On the 4-month chart it appears we are still 'buying the dips'.The possibility of settling into a trading range for a while is a possibility.The bottom line being the SPY 365 strong support level and the top maybe 385 area.Also its possible we just keep making new highs with Fed easy money and more stimulus.We still say "Use Caution" for a reason.
