The Dec'09 SP500 Index posted a new move high lower close to put the contract back in a NEUTRAL CORRECTION technical posture. The MKT is in a bit of a vacuum pocket and is primed for some volatility. 1089 is the beginning of a support band that extends down to the 1084.50 Inflection Pivot. This is the low point for any lower squeeze if the underlying positive momentum is going to resume. Accept buy signals in this zone. A held failure from 1084.50 is a fresh negative signal which extends the pressure down to 1071. Here again buying is expected. Only under this support do I see the potential for a release with 1044 and 1026 targeted. 990 is the current extreme.
Use the 1098 Directional level as a sentiment guide for the session. A held trade above here has the Index playing cat and mouse up to 1107. If the CORRECTIVE trade is going to resume the MKT will reject here. If not the buyers will try to ramp things back up targeting new move highs up to 1120.50. 1132 and 1153.25 are the extended targets.

Price Map performance for Wednesday's post for Thursday DEC 3 2009.
Note how the MKT was not able to sustain a trade above the 1112.25 Inflection Pivot which ultimately provided the signal to the negative move. This is Strategy Based Trading at work. Our expectations are that the MKT should maintain a trade above the Inflection Pivot if the BULL TREND was going to resume. If not expectations are that the MKT will fall back into a DIGESTIVE trade lower. The MKT could not maintain a trade above 1112.25 and broke down as expected. Align your expectations with the current technical posture and use JS Services Inflection Pivots to capture opportunity.
