Dow 30 - End of  Week Chart (EOW) - Analyzing 12 months Data - as on 28 December, 2012




Learning from the Past Week: (click here for the post)

Bearish Kijun Sen Cross happens as anticipated last week #2.
Bears bring the index below the MVWAP 34 also, reducing the Bull's advantage considerably #2.
Bulls defend the Tenkan Sen #2. 
The Oscillator ticks down #4.
Chikou Span close to price line #1.


The Tenkan Sen/ Kijun Sen Cross of last week coupled with the Kijun sen Cross this week - gives the Bears the advantage.





Looking Forward into the next Week:

A Senkou Span Cross #3 - if it happens from this position - is more bad news for the Bulls.
Bulls keep the index above the Tekan Sen#2. 
A Bearish Chikou Span Cross at this stage, would catalyze a dive into the Kumo #1.
Range is between the Kijun Sen and the Kumo  #2.


Holding the Tenkan Sen is critical for Bulls - Ranging as above continues.
