The S&P 500 continues to test support at 1350/1370 after penetrating its rising trendline. Recovery above 1400 would indicate another advance, but declining 13-week Twiggs Money Flow warns that support is likely to fail, with a correction to 1300. In the longer term, respect of 1300 would indicate the primary up-trend is intact, while failure would signal trend weakness.
The Nasdaq 100 breached its (secondary) rising trendline, indicating a correction back to the primary trendline at 2500. Declining 13-week Twiggs Money Flow indicates selling pressure, but respect of the zero line would suggest that the primary up-trend is intact, presenting a possible buying opportunity for the more adventurous.
