For the bears, that is. I pointed out last night that the market topped out on time but fell shy of hourly cycle projections. That’s usually a sign of weakness. This morning’s tape has borne that out. The ES, 24 hour S&P futures now have a 5 day cycle projection of 5470. An hourly close below 5505 would result in a conventional measured move target of 5430. If the market is below 5502 in the first half hour of regular trading, that would set up a crash channel.
The market would need to be above 5502 at noon in New York to break that channel.
