Don Worden of Worden Brothers (makers of Telechart software) used to keep a trend table before his health issues got in the way. I always found it useful. Mine is slightly different. Hopefully helpful. Up? or Dn? means loss of momentum. ? by itself means trend is neutral. ?+ or ?- means trend is neutral with bias of up(+) or down (-)

Daily update 5/24

The bulls drove up futures overnight, but the sellers hit shortly after the open.

SPX got above yesterday's high at the open, but failed to stay there. Breadth was +64%. New highs picked up to 128. New lows dropped to 86. Volume was really light ahead of the three day weekend.

The futures bounced today, but failed to get back above the 200 SMA.

The red count inched up a bit.

The bulls made a halfhearted effort to push the market higher. The 2800-15 area is providing some support, but unless the bulls can get some lift it is destined to fail. Maybe next week will tell the tale.
