3pm update - upside into the close

With a break above the hourly 10MA of sp'1930, equities look set for slight upside into the close. Indeed, hourly cycles are offering broad upside across Mon-Wed, to the 1955/65 zone... where a 'classic back test' is viable against the old busted support floor.

Summary

*hourly MACD cycle is primed to break higher next Monday.
--

It has been one hell of a week, with Thursday offering the first decent bearish price action since February.

There are a number of very bearish outlooks now viable, but first...lets see if we can get a back test of broken support.. and then break below 1900.

A key level is the sub-cycle high of 1897. If that can be broken at ANY point this month, then the broader trend will have decisively turned bearish.

--
*I will seriously consider a short of the market next Tue/Wed. in the 1955/65 zone.. which should equate to VIX 14/13.50s. Until then....I'm content to watch.
