So far....

Here's how we are looking at the start of the new year.

Big gap up, no fade.  We hit a new high off the ISM index at 10AM and it came with a new high in $TICK.  form there, we came 1 tick shy of the overnight highs, with a pretty decent $TICK divergence.  From there, we had a small decline, but nothing that would shake the Bulls out, it was less than 3 points basis the S&P Futures.

What does it look like from here?  Well RIGHT NOW, it looks boring, but that doesn't mean it can't change later on   The Bulls are in control and trying to make up for lost time after printing the doji for 2011.

As of now, dips should setup buying opps.

Late start

Late start today, but looks like I havent missed much, and even if I did, I have all year to make up for it!


Big chunky gap up to start the year, although we don't look like we are in a rush to go anywhere.

Breadth is strong, no reason to fight this here. 

We have faded a bit form the overnight highs, but since the day session open, it's been all Bulls.

For now, we are looking to set the first 30 and 60 minute ranges, and then from there, we'll see if we can get some sort of trending movement

For Tuesday

My first day on antibiotics is in the books, so if I feel like getting up on time, I'll see you at the open.  If not, it'll be late to start the new year
