It was another one of those days when it seems like almost every sector had green in it and stocks that were moving higher yesterday. Lets take a short review of a couple of different  sectors and then discuss some of our current bullish set ups...

.

NASDAQ from yesterday - Early in the daily cycle count, I was leaning toward a bullish resolve of this battle at the lows. It was the most likely scenario due to cycle count and many of the stocks that I liked were holding up nicely.

As mentioned in many of the 2018 reports, and especially in the weekend report delivered 2 weeks ago, we are seeing many changes slowly taking place in the markets. Today we will do our very important Big Picture Review, and along the way , I will discuss what I am seeing.

SPX DAILY - So far we still have our low on day 34. The SPX is going on day 10, and we are awaiting an upside break out.

Wednesday was another day where buying pushed price higher on many of the set ups that we have been discussing, but it was a very nice day for both Gold & Oil. Lets review the markets and discuss the days action...

 In my last  'Weekend Report' we took a deeper look at the 'Big Picture', because we had additional views to examine at the end of March.  This gave us not only a weekly view , but also the end of the months Monthly view, and also a Quarterly view. I went over that report today and it did point out that behind the beauty, cracks appeared.  This week the cracks continued, and though I do not think that necessarily signals  The End of the Bull Markets season, We could be in the Bottom of the Ninth for this run.  Let's look at our Big Picture View...

SPX DAILY - This is our daily cycle count, with the most recent low of the SPX still at day 34, and it looks like we have a dcl when it closed over the 10sma.  Could that change? Unless buyers step in on Monday, I'd say that another 'shake out' dip below the 200sma is not out of the question into day 40 + and here is why I say that...
