Modest losses on the day, but bears were unable to press declines. Volume was down considerably, which given the week that's in it is not surprising. The Nasdaq finished with a 'sell' trigger in On-Balance-Volume.

Friday was a low key affair. Small gains managed to rank as accumulation for the S&P, Dow Jones and Nasdaq 100, but there could be an argument for profit taking too. The S&P remains above 20-day and 200-day MAs. Friday did finish with a small spike high but there is demand to quickly pull up on any weakness which may be delivered on Monday.

No follow through, but healthy action saw markets hang on to yesterday's gains. Volume declined to keep sellers at bay. The S&P is still working off a 'sell' trigger in the MACD and On-Balance-Volume.  However, the index remains above 20-day and 200-day MAs.

A very good day for bulls say yesterday's weakness blown away in decisive fashion. Volume climbed to register an accumulation day for the indices. The best of the action belonged to the Nasdaq 100. It gained nearly 2% in a move to challenge the 'bull trap'. It hasn't done so yet, but tomorrow could be the day new highs are posted for 2015. Today's gains came with a 'bull cross' in On-Balance-Volume.
