Market update July 18, 2011

After a long break, I am attempting to resume blogging about markets and trading with hopefully more insightful comments.

So, during my today's read of blogs a number of traders have pointed to the hammer candle in SPY, which has formed in one of the support zones. Although it is a positive sign, I do see one problem and that is lower volume. In my experience lower volume hammers rarely kick-off a rally. However, a bullish engulfing candle on higher volume tomorrow could confirm start of an up move. Or if price decides to stay in or close to this hammer's range could signal accumulation. Lets see what tomorrow brings.
