The State of the Trend

From a weekly seasonal point of view, the SPX is currently navigating the most troubled waters:

SPY

And it is doing so remarkably well, considering that the trend remains up in daily, weekly and monthly time-frames. Since the seasonally weak period extends for a few more weeks, let's focus on the negatives.

SPX

While the DJIA made a new high, the Qs are being dragged down by the likes of AAPL, which has just broken below support and is aiming for our next support zone:

DOW

In summary, while the trend remains up for all the major indices, there are a few clouds gathering on the horizon. The outcome will largely depend on the ability of the SPX to remain within the 2012 channel shown above.
