Anyone think that the Dow just made an inverse head and shoulder formation.
The prior left hand should was at around 16016...on the 24th Sept....
then we had a low early on the 29th Sept around 15900... then today we just had a low around the 16008 level.
Will we see a rally or will it break down again.
The SPX however does not have a similar pattern...
its right hand shoulder went considerably lower than that of the 1908 low made on the 24th. Making a low today so far of 1894 to 1892 depending which chart one looks at.
Not sure what the low was on the SPX made on the 24th August.
one chart that I look at suggest around 1862...but I am not sure if it came in in Cash market hours or out of hours. When the Dow bottomed it was in cash market hours.
I use a chart from IG Index and their lows were much lower than the true market.
and it shows more of a spike low than what is seen on big charts that just shows the cash market hours.
It shows a low of 1835 compared on IGs charts to 1864 on Big Charts on the SPX
and a low of 15253 on the Dow on IGs chart compared to 15371 on bigcharts.
IGs charts are usually inline with the Cash Markets..from what I belive...but they may suggest they are based upon the nearest futures...or do so when there tends to be extreme moves.
Spike lows can sometimes suggest main lows are in for sometime.
but I think if we see the lows broke made on 29th Sept we could see new lows to come.

Id like to see a positive move one way or other...I hate all this sideways movement when trying to look for longer term trend moves.
