I'm not much of a technician or chart watcher, but for those who are, the Russell 2000 has formed a classic double bottom.

But since I don't trade based on the chart, all I have is a murky crystal ball.

Surprise! A solid break through overhead resistance at S&P 1260 on decent volume. It may be because oil continues to drop. Who know? These things usually defy reason.

Gee!! I didn't see that. It should make checking my portfolio fun, when I get around to it later on this afternoon.

Like Ziggy, I don't plan to buy right now because, well, because it's not in my PLAN...

Nearly forget all that fancy tech jargons, but still the rally like a classic bear market rally. Long term, spx is going to 1100 to 1150 at least.

I was just barely able to rebalance my energy allocation with +20% gains relative to the portfolio on 6/30. I'm already half way to -20% relative gains and buying more of the energy fund. It adds a little fun to a down market and gives me something to do while "holding".
