Daily Technical Forecast

Based on the current trade, the direction of the Dow today is likely to be determined by trader reaction to the Fibonacci level at 24508 and the 50% level at 24282.

A sustained move over 24508 will signal the presence of buyers. This could trigger a surge into 24886, followed by a downtrending Gann angle at 25148 and the main Fib level at 25310. This is a potential trigger point for another surge into 25916.

A sustained move under 24282 will indicate the presence of sellers with potential downside targets lined up at 24164 and 23910.

Crossing to the weak side of a steep downtrending Gann angle at 23612 will indicate the selling is getting stronger. This could trigger an acceleration into 23325 then 23088.
