Dow Jones Analysis 9/19/08 - Dow Jones Technical Analysis

Dow Jones - Technical Analysis - Today the dow will open at around 11280, or right between the 10 day and 50 day moving average. 11,400 is our first major level of resistance...if we can close above this level, most likely we will test 11867 which was the August high. If we break through this level, the bottom will be in at 10475. Jim Cramer, take note. Stop trying to call bottoms until they are made. Yesterdays close of 11019 acts as strong support given the gap up today. If this fails, back down we go!

Dow Jones Analysis 9/11 - Dow Jones Technical Analysis 9/11/08

The following is technical analysis for the Dow Jones Industrial Average:

The Dow Jones futures are at 11,165 so far this morning, down 120 points. Some key levels to watch are 11,125, 11037.85, and 10827. These are lows, and they should provide some support. If we close below any of these levels, they become resistance.

The point and figure chart has the Dow testing 10,350....so if we break all of the above levels, look for this to be hit.

The 10 day moving average is at 11,400 and that would be some resistance. When we close over 11,867, the lows will have been made, and we will go a lot higher! Mark that number down!

Dow Jones Analysis 9-4-08 - Dow Jones Industrial Average Technical Analysis

Dow Technical Analysis 9-04-08:

The Dow Jones is trending right along with the 10 day moving average. Monday we put in a short term top at 11,790.17 and failed to break out past the August high of 11,867.11. These are two points for the Dow Jones that you will want to mark down. As soon as we close over 11,790, we will most likely test the next level of 11867. A close over this, and I strongly believe we will go back to test the Dows 200 day moving average which is currently at 12,346. This to me will be a sign that the July 15th lows have held and we will start to recover.

What longs do not want to see regarding the Dow Jones:

A break below 11,400 has always been concerning. I don't think another retest under 11,400 will have a good impact on the markets. A close below 11,290 and we will most likely retest 11,000 and below.

Dow Jones Resistance: 11,790 & 11867
Dow Jones Support: 11,400 & 11,290

Dow Jones analysis 9/02/08 - Dow Jones Average Technical Analysis

The Dow Jones closed at 11,543.55 on 8/29/08. It was a very low volume day and all of last week was very low on the volume due to the late summer months when most people go on vacation. The Dow opened just below 11,700 and sank all day.

Key Factors: McCain selecting Sarah Palin as the VP candidate, Dell Earnings, Hurricane Gustav and the impact it may have.

Dow Jones Technical Analysis:

The Dow has made a pretty nice base for itself around the 11,400 area over the past several weeks. Looking at the Dow Chart, we need to continue to hold the 10 day moving average on a closing basis which is currently at 11453. A close below this and more selling pressure will arrive. Technicians use this moving average to gauge overall market strength for the short term. Technicians use the 50 and 200 day moving averages for the long term.

Dow Support and Resistance: The Dow has support at 11,453 and 11,390. Resistance is 11715 and 11867. When we clear this you will not want to be caught short. A big move higher could follow for the Dow.

For the week of 9/2/08 - 9/05/08.....look for some bigger volume and watch these important levels described above. The volume will really come back 9/08/08 and beyond.
