The main thing

“you just had to be still and have faith, that was the main thing.”
Jim Dodge, Fup, 1983

The market continues with a little shake and grind to wander slowly higher in what can only be described as an exceptionally calm and linear manner just below the resistance line.

With such apparent smoothness it seems likely that the market will use every last bit of the current T structure, and so we should watch each projected arm of the structure carefully.

It seems that the market has yet to find its target, but at some point it will, and then I would expect the market to open out into a larger range, pushing out in both directions and establish some new support levels.
