Options and Stock Market Technical Chart Analysis for May 22, 2009 by Idan Koren

Hey guys,
Today as we expected (and showed on the last video) we saw a continued upward consolidation to 38.2% retracement across all stock Equities before the momentum turned around in late trading on friday. In addition to just hitting the fib retracement, this weekend is a three day weekend (due to memorial day on monday) and so longer term investors pulled some of their funds out, so that they can enjoy their weekend without being worried. Nevertheless, the move lower is going to probably to continue into next week, as all stocks are showing a very strong head and shoulders with strong volumed sell offs and light volumed rallies underway. The Qs show a symmetric triangle, which might show some support before a break on tuesday. The S&P hit again its channel support (As RESISTANCE), and even had the fakeout that we talked about in the last video just so that it could hit the 38.2% retracement and then fall down. We expect the next strong level of support to be 875, as the double bottom will break quite easily. We also look at AAPl and GS which exhibit the same type of behavior. The $RIFIN also confirmed a daily break of its longer term support, and the FAZ broke its longest term descending resistance in the last 20 minutes of trading. The SRS looks like it is about to go to new short term highs as a head and shoulders failed to play out. We also look at GLD and UUP for short term trades!
Have a great 3 day weekend!
