Market Update Into 1/21: The Markets Hit the Weekly SMA (20) “Wall”
A prepared trader is generally a profitable trader, and Sunday is a great day to get ready for the week ahead by studying up from last week’s price action. In this weekend’s analysis, we take a look at the broad markets after continued moves to the upside, with $SPY, $QQQ, and $XBI all closing at or near the longer-term 20-week simple moving average resistance. As the market has not been phased by the government shutdown, the weekly SMA (20) is the only “wall” the market needs to pay attention to.
