MARKET OVERVIEW

Higher oil prices, good economic data helped the market and stocks rally this week. Friday afternoon we saw some selling but this is in part due to the fact that investors took profits from some weekly gains.

TECHNICAL LEVELS AND ANALYSIS OF MAJOR MARKET INDICES

QQQ: Another hard bounce this week from a quadruple bottom. Five consecutive green days in which the QQQ's broke resistance at $103.00 level (marked with 1 on the chart below) and showed no sign of weakness thus entering into the next tradable void with a new target of $104.60 (marked with number 2 on the chart below). So far we are continuing the trend higher and we need to remain bullish. If next week the QQQ's will push through area #2 on the chart it would give us the conformation of the break of the mini downtrend that was trying to set in since the November last year. The weakness in the QQQ's came from the three lower highs on the daily chart. Support at $100.00 price area is holding and as long as that are is holding we need to look for follow through to higher targets.

- Bias: Bullish

- Support Levels: $100.00, $99.36

- Resistance: $104.59, $105.26, $106.25

SPY: Pushed hard last week and gained strength and momentum making it possible to break $206.00 area of resistance and thus entering a tradable void that gives the ETF plenty of room to run into the nest resistance area of $209.00.

- Bias: Bullish

- Support: $198.68

- Resistance: $209.00
