The SPX
finished lower in January for just the third month in the past year.  The other two lower months were June and
August.  The short-term market trend
was neutral
this week as the SPX held the 1,770 area of support
five times this week suggesting that institutions are buyers at this
support area, as they were back in November and December at this same horizontal
level.  If support holds next week
look for a bounce back to the 1,800 resistance area and then the 1,820
– 1,830 resistance area
if the buyers can break 1,800 resistance
.





Be
prepared
to trade to the downside if the SPX does break short-term support
.





Monday kicks off another week for
earnings with GILD, AKAM, GMCR, P, SWI, TWTR, YELP, LNKD and CBOE among
other reporting this week.





Trade with the trend of the chart you are trading and move your
protective stops. 
Continue to follow your rules.
