Somethings bothering me...


Most technicians are expecting continued strong action up next week and lets face it... the dramatic move off of the recent 1290.25 low in the June ES has been impressive. Over 40 handles in 3 days! Wow!And within spitting distance of yearly highs which most believe will be captured Monday.

oh yeah!One more piece of evidence hopefully supporting my view... seasonals , generally very strong in April, are historically weak for the early part of next week before turning up again by around Wed. (for example, the first day after Easter , the s&p has been down 17 of the last 27 years,etc)
