The General Market
The indexes mostly went sideways today, although we continued to see some constructive action from individual stocks.
The QQQ was down 0.08% and closed near its lows after trying to push up into a declining 21ema. There continues to be more new net lows on the Nasdaq.
The SPY acted very similarly down .24%. This index is right back into former trading ranges from early June and August. There were new net lows on the NYSE.
The IWM was slightly up .16% although it had a poor closing range.
The VIX remains above the 21ema which is now rising and it is below a declining 50 sma.
Trends
Short term: Down
Intermediate Term: Mixed
Long term: Down

Overall thoughts
Today was another instance of the indexes holding but the leaders acting well. Be ready for whatever happens next! Don’t chase a stock that’s extended. Wait for a proper low-risk entry.
