The Nasdaq (first chart) found support at its 1990 logarithmic trendline this morning, a line where the Fed has defended the market in the past. It would be a real plus for the bulls if the index can hold that line, and a real negative if it can't. To the upside, the Nasdaq needs to get back above its logarithmic downtrend line from September at about 2550 (second chart). A quick word on fundamentals: one point where fundamental analysis approaches the predictive value of technical analysis is in the measure of a stock's historical trading range. One approach we are fond of was outlined in Ken Lee's book Trouncing The Dow. A year ago, that approach labeled Cisco Systems a sell at about $72, meaning that was as high as the stock could reasonably trade given its earnings and growth rate. So where does that system rate Cisco a buy? At 25 1/4, or about 10% down from here. It doesn't mean that Cisco can't exceed that price to the downside, just as it exceeded its upside price by about 15%, but it is intriguing to note that the market's acknowledged leader is entering a zone where buyers have historically stepped in to support the stock.
The S&P 100 (first chart) and S&P 500 (second chart) may be reforming their rising channels, a hopeful sign. The S&P 500 found support Friday at its broken September downtrend line just under 1310 (third chart).
The Dow held its October uptrend line at about 10,750 on Friday, and could be forming a bullish ascending triangle, with upside potential to 11,700 to 12,300 if it can take out 11,000 with any force, a level the Dow has struggled at repeatedly. A close above 11,007 would be bullish under Dow Theory, the oldest school of technical analysis, particularly if the Dow Transports can stay above 3000; the Trannies continue to hold above that level. But the 11,000 level has been one tough obstacle for the Industrials, reflecting its importance to the health of the market and the economy as a whole.
