Indices closed near high of the day, strongest technical action today...NICE !!!!

Not only we closed near high of the day but also well above 50 DMA in all indices.This is a very significant technical action in a decisive manner, it will be wise to ignore bad technicians coming on CNBC even tonight.

Internals of the market were as follows :

UP volume led by 23.05 to 1 in NYSE & 9.92 to 1 in Nasdaq

Advancing stocks led by 10.92 to 1 in NYSE & 5.28 to 1 in Nasdaq

VIX closed Down 8.78% @ 33.02

Oil closed UP @ $85.41

Gold closed UP @ $1670.80

S&P 500 closed @ 1194.89, RSI @ 55.09..which is HIGHER than recent peak....looks like 60++ may be in the cards....

Indices were UP 2.97% to 3.50%....strong UP day.

Stocks which were UP 4% or more included CNQ,CSIQ,FCX,LULU,MOS,
TCK,FAS,SNDK,BIDU,SINA,NTES,GOOG,WYNN,LVS,POT,ULTA,CMG,AAPL,MPEL,GNK,AGU,MA,JKS,BWLD,JDSU,C,BAC.....

AAPL looks very good, guess it is what we call pre earning run up. Stocks all overbought atm, but still keep going up without resting. Just telling us people wanted to get in

Hi C,

You should hold this call until new all time highs...$420 is a given imho

Hey c,

Those AAPL 4S sales were incredible--the run is well-deserved. As their user base grows, their initial sales numbers grow more impressive! AAPL is currently the "market leader"--moves first and fastest to the upside. As long as it holds that position, you should hold that call, especially as it is deep in the money. Wait for 3 days of underperformance to sell in my opinion.

GNK has been an absolute monster--even I'm surprised.

Best health wishes for everyone!

Hey c,

Thanks for the info on GNK--let's see if I can keep it until $20 :).

As for the market today, it would not surprise me to see it up 80+ pts by close as the NASDAQ/small caps are leading again. After a strong Monday/Tuesday, Wednesdays tend to be "trend pause" days I've noticed. I might sell off my AGU and ACI if we rally into close as a trade try for that Wednesday play.
