Well let's see where we go from here $XLP.

Re-test of breakout point, before further downside.

Consumer Staples slump due to amazon effect, higher interest rates, weak earnings performance, trade wars. Multi-year technical support level and divergence in recent drop from all time high. Value managers buy the dip. Play the bounce.

Well , we broke the highs in this pair. This shows that investors still think that the dip was as its called , a dip. I will be watching the first zone demarcated by the rectangle. That's the floor and should hold, if not , We are in for a rough ride.

Hi, my name is Spencer and it's been a long time since I've posted any ideas. I use to be a forex trader for many years and due to time constraints with my great full time job and becoming a dad, I've switched to trading stocks and specifically options.
