The market opened higher today, rallied, then turned negative, before rallying yet again, only to finish about unchanged. The choppy activity over the past several weeks, with a downward bias, continues. The market continues to be range bound, much like Minor wave 2 before it broke lower. A breakout, and the uptrend resumes. A breakdown, below the 2336/2321 support pivots, and the downtrend gets confirmed. Short term support is at the 2336 and 2321 pivots, with resistance at the 2385 and 2411 pivots. Short term momentum spent the entire day just around neutral. Best to your trading!
