VIDEO: Stock market broke support. Is this the start of a downtrend?

Post 11 of 48

On Thursday, the stock market broke support.  There are a few key things to look out for when we have a definitive breakout such as this.  We look for resistance levels (usually previous support) to fail.  If they fail as well, then we can assume lower price moving forward.  That is a real break of trend.  We can only call the current action breach of support until we get a second confirmation.  Otherwise, if prices rise back into the previous trend, then this was a failed breakout.

This may be the beginning of a downtrend.

So, this is definitely the point where you need to keep your eyes peeled moving forward.  This may be the beginning of a downtrend.  Ideally, we would like to see the market retest resistance and fail.  If we can get that failure, then I would expect a correction to ensue.  For now, we have to wait and see.  I will definitely be on top of this for you guys, so be sure to check back as developments arise.
