Nasdaq: A break above 11400 is a buy signal

Emini S&P December futures initially headed lower as expected testing key 200 week moving average support at 3590/85, but over ran to 3572. We very quickly recovered above 3590 - longs did well reaching targets of 3650/60 & strong resistance at 3700/20.

A high for the day exactly here but yesterday's bullish engulfing candle suggests a bear squeeze has started.

Nasdaq December tested the important 200 week moving average at 11180/150. A break below 10990 was required for a sell signal but this was the low yesterday.

Emini Dow Jones futures followed the others higher to retest strong resistance at 29550/650 Shorts need stops above 29750.

Remember when support is broken it usually acts as resistance & vice-versa.
