    Ron Walker puts out some interesting info for chart reading at his free Blog. This is for education only, for those who would like to get more involved with chart reading.

    One thing I would like to note here- and that is the relationship of the S fund gains and the C fund gains.

    During "normal times", the steady plodding on the upside, I have noticed that the S fund seems to take the lead, and then, when we've hit periods of stalling out, the C fund seems to do better for a while, and then they both start falling.

    In December and January, it seemed to me (and again, this just may be nothing, but it's my feeling) that the C fund was leading the short term ups before the falling rocks again. C fund being the dominant fund in play.

    However, this last week we've seen better moves by the S fund than the C.

    This COULD be indicative of something new taking place. A foundation for a turnaround, perhaps.

    Or, it could be nothing at all.

    I just have been watching this. And today S fund seems to be healthier.

    Just two cents for consideration.

    James...could today's shining of the S be due to the fact that IBM is considered a tech industry stock?

    Hi James,
    Below attached is current p&f for the S-Fund - it may show there's something to what everyone's discussing. What I'm confused over is the Price Objective (PO) shown as much Higher than the established Overhead Resistance (red) Line (& no Blue "Support-line below - (I thought, this is odd??). Any thoughts on this seeming anomally?? -Maybe this suggests any day we might indicate have the possiblitity that the worm may turn??
    I do think the "S" will follow wherefore the "C" goes though!
    VR
    -PS: Just noticed this is same with the "C" p&f chart (in the other thread).

    The correction of 1998. If you were waiting for a big pull back after the double bottom to get off the sidelines, none really showed up after the MACD crossed zero.

    How do you factor in $108 bbl oil, rising unemployment, 25% increase in cost of food and 80,000 jobs lost into this chart?
    It makes no sence to my why the market is going up..... Bear Trap???

    Gumby,

    You must remember the market is omnipotent and is a future discounting mechanism - it may already be seeing what is not yet visible to the rest of the unbelieving bears. That's just how it's supposed to work - be right and sitb tight.
