“We would allow for some profit taking to be seen here, as we note the daily RSI has failed to confirm this new high and also the 13 count on the Tom de Mark study, both imply at least some consolidation.”
“Dips lower should find good near by support offered by the 20 day ma at 104.00. Longer term, the market last year broke up from a large triangle and this points to a longer term target of 108.86.”
