Capitulation False Breakout

Short
SP:SPX   S&P 500 Index
There was significant capitulation in the market today,on the mid-day breakout above S+P 2820.
Capitulation means that unrealized paper loses from short trades
made from last weeks low at 2722 and up
were covered in mass today on the breakout to 2830 high.

Chande Momentum Indicator showh here,shows the intra-day peak in momentum
and then the immediate sell off, simply showing that today's rally
has been a short covering excercise, of traders who had enough pain and simply wanted out.

Today's breakout to new 2019 highs,
can thus potentially be labelled as a" Exhaustion/Terminal Breakout Failure
to set up a potentially significant downside reversal in the markets, next week.
