The table above is a rating for intermediate and long term trend in the S&P500.  I used the S&P 500 as the indicator for the USA stock market.  For day traders: You may find it useful to trade in the direction of the trend.  However, looking at any daily chart over lots of years, the trading direction for the day is pretty random.

 

The intermediate market technical signals are neutral to bearish.  The long-term direction (200 Day MVA) is still bullish. 

In the short to intermediate term,  the stock market has turned bearish, with a tendency to have large chops since 1/27/2014.  That indicates the market has a even battle between bulls and bears.  In auction trading theory (CME), this indicates the market has found value on S&P futures between high 1801.25 and low 1761.35. 

More importantly, the $SPX range is 1798.77 - 1777.71.  1800 will be a major resistance, and if broken could see the market test 2014 highs at 1850.54.  The support is between 1770 and 1700. 

 

The market is down before the opening, and will likely test 1767.00

 

The S&P500 Bullish PCT Index is very close to issuing a sell signal.  Get use to heavy large range days with chop until either resistance is penetrated to the upside, or support is penetrated to the downside (1700 on $SPX).
