Observation
The S and P 500 and the Nifty were up slightly last week. Indicators are mixed.
Markets are at resistance. Time to tighten those stops.

New Zealand – Rate decision, Euro Zone – German CPI, Italy, German and Euro zone GDP,

Changes less than 0.5% are considered neutral



The S and P 500 and the Nifty were up slightly last week. Signals are mixed for the upcoming week. The Vix is suggesting complacency despite the market making nominal new highs.  The markets are likely to continue major breakdowns in 2016 after this rally concludes. The critical levels to watch are 2190 (up) and 2170 (down) on the S & P and 8750 (up) and 8550 (down) on the Nifty. A significant breach of the above levels could trigger the next big move in the above markets. You can check out last week’s report for a comparison. You can also check out support and resistance levels of the S and P 500 and Nifty Indices. Love your thoughts and feedback.
