Learning from the Past Week: (Click)

A repeat performance from the Bulls - defying the last Bearish Signal - took support on the MVWAP 34 and the Kijun Seen.

Chikou Span (pink line) needs to be watched as it looks like it can cross the price line anytime.

Looking Forward into the next Week:

With the Oscillator making insipid noises - bears look like they may break in after all.

Holding above the supports of the past two weeks - should keep the Bulls safe.

The Chikou Span action - Bearish Cross or Bullish Deflection - should be worth watching intra week.
