Dow 30 - End of  Week Chart (EOW) - Analyzing 12 months Data - as on 04 Jan '13




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

Bulls did hold the Critical Tenkan Sen last Week #2.
We also have a range break to above the Kijun Sen #2.
The Chikou Span neatly deflects away from the Price #1.
The Senkou Spans slightly diverge away from each other #3.
The Oscillator ticks up #4.


The Bulls come back from the critical Tenkan Sen with a bounce, taking the index close to the Highs of last year.





Looking Forward into the next Week:

A Senkou Span Cross #3 - if it happens from this position - is still bad news for the Bulls.
Bulls now would look at a Bullish Tenkan Sen / Kijun Sen Cross #2.
Bears need the index back below the cluster of supports MVWAP 34, Kijun Sen and Tenkan Sen #2.

Holding above the Kijun Sen, Bulls should look at taking out last year's high.
