DOW Trading Range : Week of April 13

It was reported on CNBC that Darryl Guppy mentioned that DOW has a trading range of 6,000 to 10,000. To me, that is a very wide range for the short term traders. (Source : Huatopedia Forum)

Let’s just do a quick glance at DOW Weekly using Ichimoku and see what we can find out:

From the chart, we can safely observed the following:

  1. Index has hit resistance at 8043 and is now turning.
  2. The upper limit of 10,000 that Darryl Guppy mentioned can be found by looking at the kumo resistant level on top. On Ichimoku, it is around 10,287.
  3. The lower limit of 6,000 on Ichimoku as defined by the Chikou Span is the recent low of around 6,607.
  4. On a very short term basis, we will be obeserving if the reversal continues and whether it can stay above the 6,607.
  5. If it goes below this level on the Weekly Chart, we are going to see more ‘blood’ on Wall Street. 
  6. The very sector that has lead this rally will probably be the same sector that can cause the support to break.
