Trade Notes:
The System remains long. SPX has reached lower gap resistance at 1986-2004. Today makes for an interesting juncture and mix of indicators in that some divergences disappeared today (barely) while several extremes re-emerged (barely), so both tools are borderline dangerous but not enough to be real convincing on their own. Thus, I suppose its fitting that the setup suggests SPX has an opportunity to break higher short-term while requiring a fairly tight stop due to the maturing rally. Good fortune.
