Lots of investors use the SMA200 (daily) or SMA40 (weekly)
as the definitive line that separates a bull market from a bear market.
Currently, this price level is 2769.
Clusters of
stops are placed above and below, so I wouldn't be surprised to see choppy price action within a range of roughly 1.5 X the weekly ATR +/- over the next few weeks, as bulls and bears wrestle for position.
One has a hunch that it's the perfect time for the "spite long" trade: taking the opposite
side of overzealous perma-bears purely out of spite. They've been out in full force recently and are usually the best
contra-indicators.
