Trend says yes, but that's been a support point for all of the dips in '26 so far. The S&P is holding up pretty well considering what's going on. More concerned with the 6762 level that, if breeched, would take us back into the channel from the huge sell-off in October, which puts 6550 in play as the next stop. Incoming chart porn warning. Reminder, the yellow arrows were Fed rate cuts. On to the story of the day - energy, and the price of crude. It was fun to watch today. Got as high as $82.16. Little under $80 as I type this. For perspective, a 6 month chart of crude and what it looks like in the last week. This isn't new, when you look back in history - given the price of crude right now. There are some parallels. Look around Jan 15, and later what they call the 12 day war. Blowing **** up is directly proportional to the price of crude it appears. There is an old saying. This time is different. Seems like some **** is getting blown up. Next stop according to the charts is around 92. Quote

Screwball Posted 7 hours ago Posted 7 hours ago How about some mid-day chart porn. First today's action in WTI crude oil. Above I said the charts show the next stop in the 92ish range. Not there yet, but what a ride today. Up over 12%. Looking back it's around 93.5. 1 day by minute chart. We have to go back to the first part of 2022 to find the next support/resistance level. Wonder what was going on then? Hint; blowing **** up. 3 year by week chart for clarity. the 93.46 is from Jan/Feb 22. The S&P is just banging around the 6762 level after a big gap down at open, and can't seem to figure out which direction it wants to go. Given the price of oil and the February employment report, it's holding up quite well. 1 day 1 minute chart. Today's employment report from the BLS; Employment Situation Summary - embargoed until 8:30 a.m. (ET) Friday, March 6, 2026 Quote

I was half expecting to see a rush for the door at about 3:45 today but nothing really materialized - a little attempt at a rally actually but it fizzled. I guess it's good news if people aren't panicking.....so far. Quote
