The first is a 4-month chart followed by a longer-term 9-month chart. The markets finished much lower on Friday ending right at/on the important 260 support level. The technicals are still damaged due to being below both the 50-day and 200-day moving averages. Resistance levels are now at 280 and both of the moving averages. Support is at the previous October low of 260. We MUST hold the 260 level or things could get ugly. The MACD is negative. The Stochastics are neutral. The Money Flow is currently negative after the latest sell-off.I will be watching for some signs of a buy-able support level/bounce area. Happy Trading!On the 9-month chart, the nice channel from April to September has been shown. This trend/pattern was broken to the downside. Awaiting the emergence of the next pattern. The 200-day moving average and 280 are the resistance levels. We will have to see where we can find support. The level to consider is 260 (the October low). We are right at that level now.Nasdaq Composite +0.1% YTDDow Jones Industrial Average -2.5% YTDS&P 500 -2.8% YTDRussell 2000 -8.1% YTDDisclosure: I may trade in the ticker symbols mentioned, both long or short.
