Suddenly, there is once again a wide discrepancy in performance between two of the major indices -- $SPX and $NDX -- and the rest of the stock market. This is reflected by sell signals and negative readings in breadth and put-call ratios. However, the $SPX chart and the indicators involving $VIX and implied volatility remain bullish.

The major indices have had a very strong run since the beginning of October, and especially since breaking through to new all-time highs on October 21st. Now, they are taking a "breather," and some sell signals may be setting up. Support on $SPX is likely at 4525 4550, which is still 100 points below current levels.

Major Indices have broken out to new all-time highs. This includes $SPX, the Dow ($DJX), and NASDAQ ($NDX; QQQ) -- just barely for QQQ. The Russell 2000 ($RUT; IWM) is noticeably lagging. In any case, we use $SPX as "the market," and it is strong. This breakout has re-established a "bullish" rating for the $SPX chart.

The rally that began with an upside gap move on October 14th has turned out to be very strong, and $SPX has now traded at and closed at a new all-time high. The Dow is very close to following suit, but NASDAQ and the Russell 2000 lag behind. More about that later.
There is still a chance that $SPX is merely at the top of a trading range that extends roughly from 4300 to current levels, at 4550. A clear breakout above 4560 or so would dispel that notion.
