Market update

Yesterday, the major indices INDU (DOW), SPX (S&P500), NDX (Nasdaq 100), COMPQ (Nasdaq Composite), RUT (Russell 2000) and even HGX (Housing) formed a hammer at a significant pivot low. ETF such as XLE, OIH and many others also formed a hammer.

And it is about time as I do not know how to play the market as most stocks are already oversold. It would be easier if the market correct itself before continuing in its bear trend. At the end of today, if the market closes above the yesterday's high, we would have a confirmation candle. Then the market is expected to have a rally next week (may be a short one though, but we never know). So far, the market is expected to open higher today.

For the rally, I am focusing on the precious metals (e.g. mining stocks like TIE, NEM, BHP). In the meantime, I have been sharpening my skills in trading ES.
